CONSTRUCTION IS UNDERWAY!
JANUARY 2023 CONSTRUCTION UPDATE
In January, the contractor finished most of the work on Breakwaters 'A', 'B', and 'C' and the base layers of Breakwater 'F' and 'G'. Work on Breakwater 'D' also advanced and is expected to be complete by spring this year. The team is also working on placing stone and ECOncrete™ at Breakwater 'E', the first breakwater with reef ridges. Stone continues to be sorted and inspected at the Carver Quarry and delivered to the site via barges down the Hudson.

The breakwaters will be constructed from the southwest to the northeast (see plan below) between the summer/fall of 2021 and the end of 2024. The shoreline restoration component will be constructed in the final season of construction (2024).

Breakwater construction will generally proceed from the southwest, where the first breakwater will be installed, to the northeast. Partially constructed breakwaters may or may not be visible above water. Construction barges will be moored in the vicinity of the construction zone and will be marked with lights on four corners. Anchors will also be marked with lighted buoys. During work hours, divers will be present in the water. Mariners and recreational craft should avoid this area and keep their closest point of approach at least 0.5 nautical miles (3,308 feet) from buoys, lighted posts, and barges. Please refer to the Local Notice to Mariners for more information.
