    The applicant, Hueber Launch Services, proposes to perform dredging and bank stabilization along the Delaware River at 45 East Delaware Street, Marcus Hook Borough, Delaware County. The work would involve the immediate dredging by mechanical method of 93 cubic yards of sediment (largely gravel and cobbles) from 315 square feet below the mean high water line to a maximum depth of 5 feet below mean low water (3 feet design depth and 2 further feet of overdredging allowance). However, the applicant also requests approval for dredging every 2 years over a 10 year period for maintenance dredging to same depth within a 0.1 acre template. All materials would be temporarily stockpiled on uplands at the site and de-watered within a sandbag and Jersey barrier enclosure for de-watering. Ultimately, the dredged materials would be spread over uplands on the site and stabilized. More information is available in the "Public Notice & Plan Details" attachment. Public comments are due by Nov. 21, 2018.

    The applicant, the American Littoral Society, proposes to conduct beach restoration and inter-tidal or shallow sub-tidal reef construction at multiple locations along the Delaware Bay shoreline in Cumberland and Cape May Counties, New Jersey. Projects to be authorized by the proposed permit would focus on two specific activities: beach restoration (i.e., beach slope and berm improvements) and inter-tidal or shallow sub-tidal reef construction (i.e., low profile breakwater structures). Beach restoration would be through targeted sand placement at several locations along the Delaware Bay shore, and, where appropriate, the placement of inter-tidal or shallow sub-tidal reefs that would protect the beaches, allow for continued enhancement of the intertidal environment through sand accretion and would serve as living shoreline habitat for marine and estuarine species. Note that this application is for a 10-year permit to conduct the described activities. More details are available in the "Public Notice & Plan Details" attachment. Public comments are due by November 30, 2018.

    The applicant has applied for a Department of the Army permit to discharge fill material into waters of the United States in order to improve the operational, congestion and safety deficiencies located at the SR 141, I-295 and I-95 Interchange, 0.5 mile South of Newport in New Castle County, Delaware. The proposed project is funded through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and has received categorical exclusion concurrence from the FHWA. The I-95 and SR 141 interchange experiences congestion during the morning and afternoon peak hours. Both northbound and southbound SR 141 have deficient arterial levels of service for existing and future conditions. In addition, there are weaving, merging and diverging levels of service deficiencies throughout the interchange. The purpose of the project is to improve safety and traffic operations. More details are available in the "Public Notice & Plan Details" attachment. Public comments are due by November 25, 2018.

    Expiration date: 11/18/2018

    The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control has applied for a 10-year maintenance dredging permit to conduct hydraulic maintenance dredging of the federally authorized project commonly referred to as Massey’s Ditch and Big Ditch, as well as new dredging north of Middle Island and north of Lynch Thicket Island located in Sussex County, Delaware. The entire federal channel will not be dredged, rather the channel will be dredged as needed to reach the authorized channel depth and is expected to result in the removal of approximately 50,000 cubic yards of accumulated sediment. the applicant is proposing to hydraulically pump the dredged material to the Delaware Seashore State Park, just north of the Indian River Inlet for beach nourishment. More details are available in the "Public Notice & Plan Details" attachment. Public comments are due by November 18, 2018.

    The applicant proposes to conduct mechanical maintenance dredging within the Bay Vista Marina Basin and access channel, located adjacent to, and leading to, the Lewes and Rehoboth Canal at Basin Street, Rehoboth Beach, Sussex County, Delaware. The marina is an artificially excavated basin (constructed prior to 1968) adjacent to the Lewes & Rehoboth Canal, providing slips for approximately 25 vessels, which are currently resting on the bottom. The project purpose is to restore and maintain navigable depths within the marina basin and its access channel, thereby providing access to the navigable waters of the L&R Canal for the purpose of navigation. More details are available in the "Public Notice & Plan Details" attachment. Public comments are due by October 30th, 2018.
