As of Wednesday, January 17, about 77% of the project’s sand had been placed on the beach. Weather forecast shows favorable conditions for pumping through early this week and Weeks Marine expects to have both dredges, RN Weeks and Magdalen, onsite working together during this time. About 600,000 cubic yards of additional material needs to be delivered on the beach before project completion.
