Document Description
The main elements of the project include maintenance dredging of the navigational channels, shoaled areas under docks, swimming lagoon, and areas adjacent to storm drain outlets affected by sediment build up. Approximately 177,000 cubic yards of material will be dredged from Newport Dunes, including the Newport Dunes Marina docks, Newport Dunes boat launch ramp and boarding docks, main navigational channel adjacent to the marina and boat launch ramp, pedestrian bridge, and swimming lagoon and rental docks. The design project depths in the dredging area vary from -7 feet Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) in the Swimming Lagoon to -8 feet MLLW in the Marina and Boat Ramp area, as well as a portion of the Lagoon adjacent to a storm drain outlet. The dredging material will be disposed at the EPA-approved LA-3 ocean disposal site.
