Updated Beach Nourishment Project Schedule and Q & A Meeting
The contractor for the Town of Kill Devil Hills Beach Nourishment Project, and for the Towns of Duck and Kitty Hawk projects, Great Lakes Dredge and Dock (GLDD), has provided an updated projected schedule for the beach nourishment work. The project dates for KDH have been moved forward and construction is now projected to begin in early August and conclude in early to mid-September, a potential overall time reduction of as much as 15 days. Nourishment mobilization operations, including laying subline and assembling land based machinery, will begin approximately one month prior to construction to be ready once the construction dredge is on site.
