The project consists of using a hydraulic cutterhead pipeline dredge in North East River to remove material to its authorized depth of 7 feet (plus two feet of allowable over depth). Up to 100,000 cubic yards of silty to sandy material are to be dredged. Material will be transported via pipeline to the existing upland placement site. Pipeline distance will be approximately 6 miles from the furthest dredging location. The pipeline will travel through the North East River, up Stony Run creek, and over tidal and nontidal wetlands to reach the existing upland placement site. The dredging window is from 16 October 2026 to 15 February 2027; this is the only period of time dredging is allowed in the North East River. The estimated magnitude of construction is between $1,000,000.00 and $5,000,000.00. The construction duration will be approximately 120 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed.
