Dredging in Kings Park

[george]

It looks like they're finally taking care of the issues we were having getting in and out of the Nissequogue River. I'm guessing now that the state has opened their new really nice office there, they'll need access. In either case, it's good to know I won't have to check for tides to get in or out.

are they dredging in the right location this time?

I'm gonna say yes.I do hope they make it all the way around to the marina though. The areas they're working on now have also been an issue. I just hope it doesn't push any more current there.

current is not what you need in that river - do you remember when they did the first dredging I wanna say about 15 years ago? They spent the first three weeks dredging the wrong side?

Yes I do. They fired the company and we had to wait another season for it to be fixed

Anyone know if they ever got around to dredging the entrance to Stony Brook Harbor entrance?

I'm pretty sure that will happen next year.
