Stone Harbor Beachfill Update

Good news: the dredge returned to the inlet this afternoon, and resumed active pumping.  I posted a few pictures tonight on Twitter.

Because of time lost due to bad weather and rough seas, the project will extend into the early part of our season.  The dredging company will create beach access over the pipe and open beaches within a safe distance from the work area.

A crew member said they will be working for several days in their current location – 123rd Street and south to the jetty – before moving north.

The project runs 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week. We will see amazing progress in the next few weeks!

Will continue to post updates.

Picture taken Thursday evening- that’s “beach” coming out of the pipe!
