The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is looking for areas in Pool 6 to deposit dredging materials.
I suggest an area north of Westfield Golf Course between Prairie Island Road, Pelzer Street and the railroad tracks formerly the Madison Silo property.
This marginally unused property with a deep gravel pit that sits inside of the dike system would become a valuable piece of commercial property that would create increased tax revenue for the city and county if filled in.
This would be the most beneficial use of the dredging material.
