The Port of Richmond has applied to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District, for a 10-year Department of the Army Permit to carry out maintenance dredging of accumulated sediment at the Port’s Terminal 2 Berth located at the Port on eastern shore of the Richmond Inner Harbor in Richmond, Contra Costa County, 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 maintenance dredging is to restore the Terminal 2 Berth, totaling approximately 2.1 acres, to its original project design depths to allow safe navigational depths for commercial vessels berthing at the Port.
