Coming in the June 30 Issue: Currituck Returns – and Harbor Dredging Project More Likely

WESTBROOK/CLINTON – For two consecutive years, the Army Corps of Engineers has approved deployment of the Currituck dredge to clear the entrances to Clinton and Westbrook harbors of the humps and bumps that can ground boats at low tide.

Last week, the Currituck dredge arrived for this year's first of two deployments in Westbrook's harbor entrance channel to remove 15,000 of sandy bottom materials.

From Westbrook, the dredge moves on to Clinton Harbor where it is slated to remove 10,000 cubic yards of material.

The sandy material removed from the two channels will be transported in the Currituck to an area offshore of Hammonasset Beach State Park where it will be used for beach replenishment.
