Sea Isle City Lagoon Dredging Project

Sea Isle City ~ October 6, 2012

Lagoon Dredging - The current status of the project is as follows:

*The contractor, Wickberg Marine Contracting of Belford, NJ, has completed dredging the western end of Rio Grande Lagoon and a portion of Rio Del Isole (along Venicean Road); as well as work around the Yacht Club.



*The dredge is currently working in Rio Grande lagoon, which should be completed by the end of this week or early next week. 

The lagoons to be dredged are as follows:
Rio Grande (south side of 47th Place)
Rio Delle Stelle (between 46th and 47th Place)
Rio Delle Luna (between 45th and 46th Place)    
Rio Del Amore (between 44th Street and 45th Place)
Rio Delle Isole (along Venicean Road)
Rio Del Barche (between 43rd Place and 44th Street)
Rio Del Affare (between 42nd and 43rd Place)
Rio Delle Ponte (along Park Road on either side of 43rd Place)

The project provides for the ability of private property owners adjacent to the project area to enter into an agreement with the dredging contractor to dredge their private slips (at the private owner’s expense).  In conjunction with the City project, properties at the above locations do have the required permits to perform private slip dredging. 



As part of this project, consistent with the commitment to afford the opportunity to private property owners to have their slips dredged (at their own expense), the City continues to work with the Army Corps of Engineers and the NJ Department of Environmental Protection to obtain permits for previously identified areas of need, including the western side of Venicean Road (along the Intracoastal waterway) and along Sounds Avenue in the area of 38th Street.  Permits for these areas are expected to be obtained this fall, which will still allow time for these property owners to come to agreement with the dredging contractor to have their slips dredged prior to completion of the overall project.
