Kaunakakai Harbor Maintenance Dredging Molokai, Hawaii
Kaunakakai Barge Harbor is on the south-central coast of the island of Molokai. The Kaunakakai Harbor maintenance dredging work is designed to remove shoal material within the existing Federal project limits of the barge channel and basin. This work will restore the harbor to the depth of 23 feet. Approximately 48,000 cubic yards of material will be dredged by either a hydraulic dredge or clamshell dredge. Fish are expected to move away from the project area due to the temporary increase in water turbidity during dredging. If disposal of dredged material is at sea, settlement to the ocean bottom and dispersion of the material would cause a temporary turbid condition in and around the immediate disposal area.
