Full Public Notice          Project Plans

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:  First, the applicant proposes to perform maintenance dredging of 5,000 cubic yards of sediments from two immediately adjacent boat channels and entrances.  Second, a total of 5,000 cubic yards of maintenance material will be placed on eastern side of the adjacent 0.24 acres of the McGee Beach marsh complex.  Third, the first and second actions will be repeated at a rate of approximately 2,500 cubic yards as needed in order to prevent and address issues like shoreline erosion.  Finally, the existing standard permit time limit for completing work which will expire December 2018 will be extended from 2018 to 2023. In this pre-existing permit, the applicant proposed to place fill material (e.g., clean sand, rock for groin, and rock/riprap for a breakwater) below the high tide line into Carancahua Bay in order to continue Port Alto beach nourishment, and to reinforce the existing berm that protects the wetlands from saltwater intrusion.
