The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers delivered to Congress its Fiscal Year 2023 Work Plan for the Army Civil Works program on Feb. 27, 2023. $27 million from that budget will go towards dredging projects on the Eastern Shore.
Among the projects funded include $250,000 for the Chincoteague Harbor, $4 million for the Chincoteague Inlet, $4.2 million for Deep Creek, $2.2 million for the Little Machipongo River, $700,000 for Onancock Creek, $3.5 million for Parker Creek, $2.9 for Quinby Inlet, $1.7 million for Starlings Creek, $3.5 million for the Tangier Island Channel and $4.9 million for the waterway along the seaside of the Eastern Shore.
The next year or so will involve planning development, surveys, design, and drawing, as well as awarding bids and permits.
