Port Jefferson Harbor, New York Navigation Project
Port Jefferson Harbor is an indentation in the north shore of Long Island, on Long Island Sound, New York. The authorization provides for dredging a channel 40 feet deep, 350 feet wide from deep water in Long Island Sound to the head of the harbor, a distance of about 2.3 miles, and a turning basin at the inshore end of the channel. The project will provide safe and adequate passage of recreational boats and tugs with tank barges. Channelization will be by hydraulic dredge methods with material disposal confined by retaining dikes. Temporary increase of turbidity during construction was determined to have minimum impact on water quality. No adverse impacts upon fish and wildlife resources were determined to result from the project.
