This dredging maintenance project is to deepen and Intracoastal waterway from Jacksonville to Miami in the vicinity of Matanzas Inlet and Flagler County, Florida. Jacksonville is centered on the banks of the St. Johns River in the First Coast region of northeast Florida. It is also the most populous city in Florida, the most populous city in the southeastern United States and the largest city by area in the contiguous United States. Miami is an American city that is the seat of Miami-Dade County and is the cultural, economic, and financial center of South Florida. Both of the starting and ending points of this project are located along the Atlantic coast, and the distance between these two locations is 348 miles (560km). However, this project only covers the section from Matanzas Inlet to Flagler County. It means that the length of this waterway required to be dredged will be around 12.2 miles (19.6km). Talking about the details of these two locations, Matanzas Inlet is a channel in Florida connecting the Atlantic Ocean and the south end of the Matanzas River. It is 14 miles (23 km) south of St. Augustine, in the southern part of St. Johns County. Since the inlet is not stabilized by jetties, it is subject to shifting. For Flagler County, it is a county on the east coast of the U.S. state of Florida.

Sedimentation is the natural process of sand and silt washing downstream gradually fills channels and harbors. This phenomenon also happens in this Intracoastal Waterway from Jacksonville to Miami. It is the reason why dredging, the removal of sediments and debris from the bottom of water bodies, is a routine necessity in waterways worldwide. Dredging must be done periodically to keep it clean, and safe for navigation. After this project, the depth of this Intracoastal waterway from Jacksonville to Miami in the vicinity of Matanzas Inlet and Flagler County will be greater. It will be available for larger ships with more cargos.
