Contractor Manson could extend project past Memorial Day weekend if repairs are completed and work resumes
Mechanical problems have forced Manson Construction to suspend dredging of the Oceanside Harbor entrance channel with about two-thirds of the job completed. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers hires the contractor annually to keep the channel clear for navigation and, as a by-product of the operation, to place sand from the harbor on Oceanside's northern beaches.
Beaches south of the pier get little of the harbor sediment and are much more eroded. 'Fortunately, this decision, which was made prior to the dredge experiencing mechanical problems, helped maximize the benefits of the limited amount of sand supplied to city beaches,' she said. Waves and ocean currents constantly push sand into the harbor. Without dredging, the channel would soon become impassible.
