Operation and Maintenance of New Bedford Hurricane Barrier, Maine
The project proposes operation and maintenance of the main Harbor Barrier and Dike and its related structures. Environmental impacts include protection to the highly developed commercial, industrial and residential areas from tidal flooding during major coastal storms and hurricanes; serves a protective facility for harbor-based and transient vessels; compressed air jetting which causes some temporary turbidity; rodent control. Rodent control and air jetting could be considered to have possible adverse effects.
