FY 21 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Completed dredging to project depth and placed all suitable beneficial reuse material at an upland beneficial reuse site.
FY 22 ACCOMPLISHMENTS
- Complete an analysis of advanced maintenance alternatives. Plan to perform condition surveys, Environmental coordination, and develop plans and specifications for the next dredge episode.
ISSUES AND OTHER INFORMATION
- This is a non-annual project with a dredging cycle of every two years. Dredging is scheduled for FY23.
- The CA State Coastal Conservancy has contributed approximately $5M to fund the additional cost of beneficial reuse. We used roughly half in FY21 and will use the rest of the funding to redirect a portion of the dredged material from in-Bay placement to beneficial reuse for the next episode summer.
- The Port of RWC continues to support reducing the dredging cycle frequency from every two years to annually. The PDT is evaluating the feasibility of this recommendation.
