PROPOSED WORK: To construct a bulkhead cargo dock consisting of approximately 330 linear feet of sheet pile adjacent to and within the footprint of the existing gravel barge landing. Approximately 542 sheet piles would make up an “open cell” structure and 21,160 square feet (23,220 cubic yards [cy]) of armor rock, shot rock, surfacing course, and concrete fill would be placed to make up the cargo dock.
