Deeper Water Project Funded at Coquille Lagoon, Oregon
Bandon business leaders raise funds independent of Congress to improve Coquille River harbor. A lagoon near the river mouth diverts water, forming a bar and reducing scouring. Engineers expect a breakwater across the lagoon will keep sand out and water in the main channel. Government work on the North Jetty, funded at 60000 dollars, advances the river entrance with no vessels harbored for almost a year.
