STONE HARBOR BEACH FILL PROJECT MAY BEGIN BEFORE WEEK’S END

 (Stone Harbor, NJ)— Stone Harbor’s much-anticipated beach fill project may begin as early as Saturday, April 20^th.  The beach project has been delayed due to rough seas and strong winds in the Hereford Inlet where a dredge currently rests.

Stone Harbor Mayor Suzanne Walters, Councilman Al Carusi, and other Stone Harbor officials attended a progress meeting on Wednesday, April 17^th.  Representatives from the United States Army Corps of Engineers and Norfolk Dredging, the company hired to conduct the beach fill, stated that the dredge “Charleston” is in place and work crews are ready to begin.  However, winds have caused consistent ten foot seas in the inlet which has prevented a safe hookup between the “Charleston” and the pipe that will place sand on the beach.  Norfolk Dredging reported that four to five foot seas are needed for a two to three hour span in order to safely attach the pipe to the dredge.
