About this file

This document includes an underwater video survey of Great Chebeague Island in Casco Bay, Maine and details of a related federal contract opportunity for dredging work. The underwater video survey document provides plan and profile camera images from stations P1 through P12 located in the project area. The images note bottom composition and conditions including sediment type, debris, and aquatic vegetation at each station.

The associated federal contract opportunity is for improvement dredging of approximately 4,000 cubic yards of mixed sediments from the 10-foot channel/turning area and 8-foot turning basin near Great Chebeague Island. The work includes mechanical dredging and transport of materials via scow to the Portland Disposal Site approximately 15 nautical miles away. The available dredging window is from 1 November 2023 to 31 December 2023 and will require coordination with tide cycles. Environmental review and permitting has been completed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New England District.
