$3M Expected for Intracoastal Waterway Dredging

Sections of the Intracoastal Waterway near the Isle of Palms and near McClellanville are expected to be dredged thanks to almost $3 million set aside for waterway maintenance.

The Post and Courier of Charleston reports that the Charleston District of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has received $2.4 million for the work. Charleston County has agreed to chip in another half million.

The Corps has received bids for the dredging and expects to finalize the contract and release details next month.
