Bay Improvements Soon Commence At Harbor Entrance
Prospects for rapid harbor movement are strong as Captain Orwell calls for bids on dredging about 200000 cubic yards of material. Bids open September 9 to cut off the tongue of land holding the lighthouse at the harbor entrance. Water depth of 85 feet expected. Soil is soft sand atop hard bedrock. Remedial dredging materials will reclaim land near the light. $235000 available now with $200000 authorized by Congress. Afterward, work will extend toward the Kwa end and widen the harbor from the railroad wharf to the lighthouse.
