The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) has applied to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District, for a Department of the Army Permit to carry out dredging of accumulated sediment at the USCG Base Alameda Boat Basin located adjacent to the USCG Dock on Coast Guard Island at the eastern end of the Oakland Inner Harbor in the City and County of Alameda, California. Disposal of the dredged sediment from the proposed dredging project would involve aquatic disposal, beneficial reuse, and upland placement as appropriate. The purpose of the proposed dredging is to deepen the USCG Boat Basin in order to provide sufficient depth to accommodate up to four new National Security Cutters.
