A high priority for the Municipality of Anchorage, which owns and operates the Port of Alaska (the Port), the North Extension Stabilization Step 1 (NES-1) project is part of the Port’s 10-year Modernization Program, which aims to replace the aging marine structures and related infrastructure to support commercial and military vessels that serve and protect the state of Alaska.

The Manson project team will stabilize a vital section of the Port’s North Extension with ground improvements, removal of an existing sheet pile wall, excavation, placement of rock, and dredging more than a million cubic yards (CY) of material to realign the shoreline.
