J.E. McAmis finishing dredging at Tongue Point

J.E. McAmis crews have been busy lately dredging at FRC (Fast Response Cutter) Homeport for the U.S. Coast Guard at Tongue Point, OR.

The company is working as a subcontractor to Granite Construction, part of the GWWH A Joint Venture that won the contract to expand Coast Guard facilities at Tongue Point.

J.E. McAmis will complete Phase 1 of the work sometime next week and move on to the placement of a 1′ sand cap over the dredged area.

Overall, the contract includes dredging around 100,000 cubic yards of sediment and placing an additional 18,000 cubic yards of clean sand fill.
