The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Alaska District contracts the Westport, a 2,000-cubic-yard hopper dredge operated by Manson Construction, to keep Cook Inlet safe for navigation by clearing built-up sediments on the seafloor that prevent large ships from coming through. So far this year, the team has removed 85,000 cubic yards of material from the waterway and expects to see more infill from this point forward. For the past 12 years, the cumulative volume removed each year from the beginning of spring until end of fall has ranged from 600,000 to 1.2 million cubic yards of material. The Alaska District anticipates being on the lower end of the range for this years efforts.
