The boat ramp dredging project at Bing’s Landing has been postponed until after Labor Day in September.
The project was initially scheduled to begin June 1 and close the boat launch for three weeks, but Flagler County announced the delay in a press release on May 26. In a statement from Interim County Administrator Adam Mengel, the project was delayed after additional consultation with the Florida Inland Navigation District and after receiving feedback from local commercial and recreational boating industries.
FIND is the project's primary funding source. Flagler County received a $302,500 grant from the organization in October to support the dredging project, with Flagler County supplying a 50% match from boat vessel registration revenue and general revenue available in the Bing’s Landing Master Plan Improvements Project.
No one from Flagler County or FIND could be reached by the Observer for additional explanation to the delay in time for this publication.
The project will remove around 2,500 cubic yards of dredge material out of the boat ramp area, according to the construction contract. The dredge area will include the entire boat ramp and launch area, ending at the banks of the Intracoastal Waterway.
The dredging contract was awarded to Quantum Marine Construction, a marine construction company, at the April 6 Flagler County Commission meeting.
