What a surprise, removing the berm designed to stop the port from silting is causing the port to silt up. Get ready for annual dredging operations on the west berth.
Give it a few more years of deposition and we'll be able to drive to the end at high tide again! Or even sooner if we get one of those debris flow events...
That's what happens when you forego the necessary modeling studies of the river and the effects of removing some of the spit. Time for the port authority to sue Edith Tobe.
