TxDOT proposes maintenance dredging for a period of 10 years within three Port Bolivar Ferry slips and approach ways to maintain a depth of 22 feet below     mean low tide.  The project area is a 32.84-acre site.  The proposed DMPAs include the following options:  PA 2A, PA 2B, PA5, PA6 and BU 1 and BU 2.  TxDOT proposes to remove 350,000 cubic yards of dredged material annually.  Currently authorized PAs 41 and 43 have limited capacity.  TxDOT also proposes to place fill material into 75 acres of waters of the United States to utilize the material beneficially as beach restoration.  BU 1 would be approximately 66.86 acres, in size, and BU 2 would be approximately 8.12 acres, in size.
