Diked Disposal Area. Buffalo River, Buffalo Harbor, Black Rock Channel, Tonawanda Harbor, Erie County, New York
The project provides for diked disposal of polluted maintenance dredge spoil from the Buffalo River, Buffalo Harbor, Black Rock Channel, and Tonawanda Harbor. Polluted dredge spoil, previsously dumped partially into another diked area and partially into the open waters of Lake Erie, will be confined in a diked disposal area. Beneficial impacts include the elimination of adverse effects of polluted spoil in the lake and creation of about 115 acres of new land. Undesirable impacts include turbidity of the water during construction of the diked area, unsightliness during construction and filling and possible noxious odors. The area selected for the disposal site has not been found to have particular aesthetic, economic, cultural or ecological importance.
