The permit applicant, NJDOT-Office of Maritime Resources, proposes to conduct ten-year maintenance dredging of Nacote Creek State Navigation Channel #166 and Nacote Creek Basin State Navigation Channel #167; with disposal of all resultant dredged material in uplands at the Nacote Creek Research Station’s Confined Disposal Facility located in Galloway Township, New Jersey. The stated purpose of the project is to maintain safe navigational depths for transiting emergency, commercial, and recreational vessels. Due to substantial shoaling present within Nacote Creek Basin State Navigation Channel #167, the permit applicant requested a 15-day Public Notice for the proposed project to allow for maintenance dredging to be conducted during Fall 2025.
