Living Breakwaters Construction Updates

DECEMBER 2021 UPDATE

As the holidays are approaching, the contractor is on track to finish the base layers of Breakwater ‘A’, ‘B’, ‘C’, and ‘D’ by the end of this year. Placement of these four breakwaters’ marine mattresses have been completed. Currently, the heavy geotextiles layers on Breakwater ‘C’ and ‘D’ are being installed. Early next year, the contractor will start placing stones on top of the base layer of Breakwater A. You will begin to see the emergent portion of this breakwater next spring! The production of stone at Carver Quarry and casting of Precast Ecological Concrete units at New Jersey Precast Plant are also ongoing.
