AIWW / IWW Overview in Jacksonville District

AIWW / IWW Overview in Jacksonville District

• Jacksonville District has authorization to maintain all 370.9 miles of the AIWW and IWW.

• Divided into reaches, typically by County.• Dredging is determined via condition surveys to

determine where the most significant shoaling is occurring.

• Federal Channel with a “low use shallow draft” designation = No Federal funding.

• FIND will be taking the lead until Jacksonville District receives additional Congressional Adds.– Corps will not even be able to perform condition surveys.

• FY 11– President’s Budget $350K.– Caretaker Activities – real estate activities,

condition surveys, environmental activities. – Completed dredging in the Matanzas Reach with

Contributed Funds from FIND and Bakers Haulover reach with Federal funding.

Jacksonville DistrictAIWW / IWW Issues & Concerns

Jacksonville DistrictAIWW / IWW Issues & Concerns

• Continued lack of adequate funding for dredging operations to fully maintain the waterway as authorized: 12’/10’ Deep x 125’ Wide.

• Pot of money that can be used for waterways such as the AIWW/IWW?

• Economic impact of not maintaining the waterway?– Tourism.– Real estate values.

• Regionalization pros & cons.– One Voice/consistent message.– Loss of institutional knowledge (State issues/regulatory).
