Summary

[edit]
Description JASPER COUNTY, S.C.—Work continues on the back dike raising at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah Harbor dredge disposal area "14A" shown here Aug. 29, 2013. Col. Thomas Tickner, commander for the Corps' Savannah District, and his staff visit the work site and meet with Chad Brown, vice president of Ashridge Construction, the prime contractor. The project includes the placement of 198,000 cubic yards of dredge material to raise the back dike, plus an additional 40,000 cubic yards of sediment, according to Brown. It also includes the placement of 170,000 square yards of geotechnical fabric, which is layered under the dredge material to improve the structural stability of the dike. The team is also installing wick drains to help dissipate the groundwater. Construction began in the spring of 2013 and is slated for completion in October. The Corps' Savannah District is responsible for operating and maintaining the Savannah shipping channel (and its associated dredge disposal areas) to ensure commerce has safe and adequate access to and from the Garden City Ocean Terminal. The Savannah Harbor is the nation's fourth busiest container port. USACE photo by Tracy Robillard.
