Full Public Notice    Project Plans

The applicant proposes to hydraulically and mechanically dredge a 122.92-acre area, consisting of linear channels to access various exploratory well sites.  The site was formerly excavated and constructed as an oil exploration field which has since silted in due to lack of maintenance.  The applicant proposes to excavate approximately 858,503 cubic yards of dredged material from 114 acres of unvegetated canals and 8.92 acres of wetlands, to  re-open the canal system.  The applicant proposed to place 394,901 cubic yards of dredged material onto 52.96 acres of dredged material banks and open water, to repair the banks, and to create containment levees for beneficial use of dredged material.  The applicant also proposes to place 463,602 cubic yards of dredged material into open water to create a 143.37-acre beneficial use area.  Hay bale weirs will be installed to allow for dewatering of the beneficial use area and for intertidal exchange during high tides.
