- Description
- Background Information The New York District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) proposes to perform maintenance dredging of East Rockaway Inlet, New York Federal Navigation Project. The sand would be dredged from the Inlet and subsequently placed along the Far Rockaway, NY Beach shoreline per the plans and specifications. The proposed maintenance dredging would remove approximately 450,000 cubic yards of sand from the East Rockaway Inlet and Deposition Basins. Dredging would be required to a depth of -14 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) plus 2 feet allowable over-depth. The dredged material is greater than 90% sand. The proposed work is anticipated to be performed by utilizing a hydraulic dredge. Additionally, barges, tugboats, pipeline and land-based equipment such as dozers, will be needed to perform the work during the dredging and placement activities. The dredging and placement along the shoreline would be required to meet all federal, state, and local criteria required by the government agencies having jurisdiction where the dredging and placement sites are located. Once the contract is awarded, the contractor will be required to commence work within five (5) calendar days after the date of receipt by him of the notice to proceed and maintain an integrated production rate of at least 12,000 cubic yards per calendar day for the dredging and placement of the dredged sand. The presence of dredging equipment in the channel will impact ship traffic, and it is necessary to maintain this production rate while minimizing the duration of this impact. The proposed work is anticipated to take place in the fall/winter of 2025/2026. The project magnitude is estimated between $10,000,000.00 and $15,000,000.00.
