Public Notice NAP-2013-00695-86 and NAP-2013-00696-86 is being revised to reflect an inadvertent omission made in the original notice concerning Tioga Marine Terminal. The site was included in the location map, however site-specific dredging plans were not added to the original PN for this project. This revised Public Notice supersedes the public notice published by the Philadelphia District on November 26, 2024. The revised comment period will close 30 days from the date of this public notice. The purpose of this revised public notice is to solicit comments and recommendations from the public concerning issuance of a Department of the Army permit for the work described below.
The USACE Philadelphia District has received an application for a Department of the Army permit pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.

The permit applicant, Weeks Marine, proposes to conduct maintenance dredging at 18 existing facilities within the Delaware River within Philadelphia, Bucks, and Delaware Counties in Pennsylvania; Gloucester, Camden, and Burlington Counties in New Jersey; and New Castle County in Delaware. The purpose of the project is to remove sediment accumulation and maintain adequate water depths at the various port and berth facilities to support ship access.
