It is proposed to initiate construction, on receipt of funds, for improving a project harbor by deepening and modifying harbor dimensions in order to handle larger ships. An increase in shipping activities is expected as a result of the proposed harbor improvement. Some dredged material, if suitable, will be utilized for beach replenishment and some will be used to create an artificial fishing reef. Material not suitable for either purpose will be placed on diked upland areas. Preliminary studies indicate a fishing walkway on the south jetty would improve fishermen access in the area. There will be a temporary increase of water turbidity during construction. Increased traffic of larger vessels could increase the pollution potential of the harbor area.
