Full Public Notice          Project Plans

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:  The applicant proposes to deepen 37 wharves around the HSC and turning basin and two wharves in the Manchester Wharf area to a depth of 36 feet below mean low tide (MLT) plus 1 foot of overdepth and 1 foot of advanced maintenance dredging for a total depth of 38 feet below MLT.  Depths at the wharves are currently authorized at differing depths ranging from 28 feet below MLT to 36 feet below MLT.  This project will authorize these wharves to be dredged to the same depth as the adjoining Federally-maintained channel.  All dredged material will be placed in previously approved Port Authority-owned placement areas.
