Ongoing work on a 370-foot section of the breakwater began in late June and is expected to finish by October 1, with an option for an additional 50 feet of improvements, USACE Detroit District said. The $1.8 million contract will raise and modify the structure to strengthen it and halt stamp sand movement into critical Great Lakes habitat, ensuring the Keweenaw Waterway remains safe for commercial and recreational vessels.
