SAN FRANCISCO HARBOR & BAY (DRIFT REMOVAL)
OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE
PROJECT LOCATION AND Description
The Drift Removal project is based at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) San Francisco District Operations Base at Richardson Bay in the city of Sausalito in the County of Marin. The project removes floating hazards to navigation using USACE vessels. Large floating debris collection is accomplished by routine patrols on the Bay and in response to calls received from the public and agencies (e.g., U.S. Coast Guard, ports, ferryboat operators, public and private operators, San Francisco Bay harbor pilots). The areas of operations are San Francisco Bay, San Pablo Bay, Suisun Bay, and portions of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers.
