Dredging in Westbrook
May 4, 2012
Pilots Point Marina had a Press Conference Wednesday April 11, 2012 in the South Yard Clubhouse to celebrate the approval of the dredging of Patchogue River. Many distinguished guests were on hand to remark on the hard work of many individuals to get this dredging approved. Among the many guests were Congressman Joe Courtney, Senator Eileen Daily, Army Corp of Engineer's Representative Ed O'Donnell, Westbrook's Harbor Commission Chairman Mike Farrell and First Selectman Noel Bishop.
Getting a federal earmark entails a lot of effort and all of the efforts finally paid off. Ed O'Donnell, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineer's representative at the event said, "Without the dogged help of Congressman Courtney, this money would have gone elsewhere." Pilots Point Marina will greatly benefit from the dredging of Westbrook harbor in many ways and we look forward to it getting started soon.
