The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Alaska District, will conduct an Industry Day to improve Industry's understanding of USACE's Unalaska (Dutch Harbor) Channels Project. Presently in Illiuliuk Bay a bar with an elevation of approximately -42 feet MLLW is shallower than the surrounding bathymetry and restricts the draft of vessels that can safely access port facilities and areas of refuge in Dutch Harbor. This project will construct a navigation channel through the bar in the harbor channel to an elevation of -58 MLLW to allow access for vessels with a draft up to 44 feet. The project is in Unalaska, Alaska.

The goal of this industry day is to:

1. Familiarize the industry with the dredging requirements at Unalaska, Alaska.
2. Receive feedback from industry.
3. Answer questions on the Unalaska (Dutch Harbor) Channels Project and gain an understanding of how the contractor community can support this project.
