Photographs & Story by Peter Robbinsrobbins_dredge2_250

After all the talk, it appears the dredging of Barnstable Harbor is about to begin. Contractors from Bortolotti Construction were photographed Friday removing old spoils to create a stilling basin for the new dredging spoils.

Spoils presently within the basin will be removed.  Should testing determine that the spoils are appropriate for beach nourishment, they could be used at the Millway Beach location.  If not, they will be disposed of in an appropriate manner.

The Barnstable County dredge and support equipment was due in Barnstable by the first part of December.  According to one source, the equipment will be here next week.
