摘要: The Richmond Harbor Navigation Improvement Project located in Richmond, California, will create a safe navigation channel of sufficient depth for modern bulk carriers scheduled to use the Port's terminal facilities. The project area includes a channel extending from the Long Wharf Maneuvering Area through the Richmond Entrance Channel, the Potreto Reach and Sharp Turn with a turning basin at Point Potreto, the Inner Harbor, and the Santa Fe Channel. Furthermore, the existing 35-foot-deep channel has sharp turns that are increasingly difficult for large vessels to navigate, especially against strong winds, waves and currents, at night and under foggy conditions. The recommended plan for navigation improvement would deepen the existing 4.0 nautical miles of the Richmond Harbor channel from 35 feet mean lower low water (MLLW) to 38 feet MLLW. The plan includes a new 1,200-foot turning basin at the Potreto Sharp. The Corps proposed a two-phase channel improvement plan to meet the Port's present and future needs, while avoiding the expenditure of funds before the full dimensions of the project are required. The recommended Phase I of the project, is designed for bulk vessels (38 feet MLLW), while Phase 2 will be designed for containerships (41 feet MLLW). Construction of Phase 2 has been deferred indefinitely.
