Full Public Notice    Project Plans

The applicant proposes to amend his existing permit to allow redistribution of the maintenance dredge materials within his barge slip area, but outside of the Federal Channel limits.  This method of disposal would be used instead of placing the dredged material into the previously authorized contained dredged material disposal areas (DMPAs):  South Shore DMPA - Cell A, Cell B, or Cell C, DMPA Number 1, Rincon DMPA, and Tule Lake DMP No. 6.  The maintenance dredging is for 70,000 square feet of area in front of the applicant’s docking facility in order to maintain the previously authorized depth of –40 feet mean low tide plus an additional 2 feet for advance maintenance.  Approximately 8,300 cubic yards of material will be hydraulically dredged.  This project was originally authorized under Department of the Army Permit 18707.  Maintenance dredging for this project was previously authorized under General Permit 19350(02)/021.  Currently, a 10-year maintenance dredging program is authorized for the project site under SWG-1991-01796 issued on 18 October 2011 using the previously named DMPAs.
