Taylor County is reviewing plans for dredging and sediment disposal along approximately 4,870 additional linear feet of canals and channels in the northern Dekle Beach Community. The project involves developing preliminary designs for dredging, identifying new disposal locations, and preparing construction documents. This includes tasks such as data collection, surveying, sediment sampling and analysis, sediment removal, dewatering, hauling, and disposal. The project is currently under review, with WSP developing conceptual designs and conducting surveys. The scope of work will involve site clearing and grading for disposal areas, potential dewatering and sediment processing, hauling of materials, and final disposal. Contractors specializing in marine construction, dredging, site preparation, and waste disposal may find opportunities. Engaging early is advised as plans and bid documents are still being developed.
