Dredging Operations

• Material Removal: The maintenance dredging operation focused on removing sand from the harbor’s channel and deposition basin.
• Beach Placement: The dredged sand was placed along the adjacent beach, enhancing coastal resilience and providing additional beach area west of the west jetty.
• Depth Requirements: The project aimed to achieve a dredging depth of -14 feet MLLW, with an additional 2 feet of allowable over depth.

Environmental Considerations Given the project’s significant environmental impact, special attention was paid to ensuring compliance with all environmental regulations. The dredged material’s high sand content facilitated its use in beach nourishment, promoting environmental sustainability.

TITAN’s Role and Contributions Titan Consultants played a crucial role in the project’s success by providing a dedicated Site Safety and Health Officer (SSHO). The SSHO was responsible for overseeing all safety protocols and ensuring the health and safety of all personnel involved in the project. Titan’s contributions included:

• Safety Management:

  • Ensuring adherence to all safety regulations and protocols.
  • Conducting regular safety inspections and assessments to identify and mitigate potential hazards.
  • Implementing and monitoring comprehensive safety plans to protect workers and the environment.

• Quality Control:

  • Overseeing the dredging process to ensure it met all project specifications and quality standards.
  • We are coordinating with project stakeholders to ensure smooth project execution and adherence to timelines.

Project Highlights

• Scope of Work: Maintenance dredging up to 45,000 cubic yards of sand from Lake Montauk Harbor’s channel and deposition basin.
• Material Placement: Dredged sand was placed along the adjacent beach west of the west jetty.
• Depth Achievement: Dredging to a depth of -14 feet MLLW plus 2 feet of allowable over depth.
• Environmental Focus: High sand content facilitated beach nourishment, promoting ecological sustainability.
• Titan’s Contributions: Provision of a Site Safety and Health Officer, ensuring strict adherence to safety protocols and quality standards.

Through meticulous planning, execution, and management, Titan Consultants ensured the Lake Montauk Harbor Maintenance Dredging project was conducted efficiently, safely, and in compliance with all regulatory requirements. Titan’s commitment to excellence played a pivotal role in successfully restoring and enhancing the harbor and adjacent beach areas.
