County Executive Levy Approves $50,000 Study for 2009 Dredging
Hauppauge, NY – Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy’s plan to dredge Stony Brook Harbor is sailing along after a resolution for a survey was recently approved by the Suffolk County Legislature.
The legislation, submitted by Levy and cosponsored by Legislator Vivian Viloria-Fisher (D-Setauket), proposes $50,000 for the county to survey Stony Brook Harbor, which is split between the towns of Smithtown and Brookhaven. The survey will map the topography of the harbor, identifying key areas that should be dredged to improve and provide safer vessel passage into and out of Stony Brook Harbor.
“We are fortunate to live in a region with such an abundant amount of waterways, making it an ideal area for boating,” Levy said. “This can only happen though if we commit to keeping our waterways accessible for all boaters.”
With the survey legislation passed at the most recent general meeting of the Suffolk County Legislature, a request for proposal (RFP) will be sent out to contractors this fall and the actual dredge work in Stony Brook Harbor will occur during the 2009-2010 dredge season.
“As a co-sponsor of this resolution, I know that at the conclusion of this project, Stony Brook Harbor will be safer and more accessible for the residents of this community and this county,” Legislator Viloria-Fisher said.
The dredging of Stony Brook Harbor is one part of a capital program to dredge several bodies of water around Suffolk County over the next three years.
