Summary of Work
For the first half of 2023, Project 11 contractors are working near Shore Acres and La Porte communities. As part of the larger Project 11 contract, the Contractor will widen the north shore of the Bayport Ship Channel. This work will take place exclusively south of the existing pipeline easement and heavy equipment will be mobilized, via barges, to reduce impacts to the community.
As summarized in Table 1, work will generally include six (6) construction phases. The Contractor has specifically planned these phases to reduce impacts to neighboring communities and optimize available schedules. To further mitigate impact to the community, the hydraulic dredge has (1) rotated exhaust stacks away from the community and (2) added sound dampening walls around the engine room (Photograph 1).
