Pipeline and filters are in place on the beach at 51st Street, ready for the renourishment project to resume.
Check OCNJ Daily for updates and photos of the Ocean City beach replenishment project for 2015 in the south end between 37th and 59th Streets.
DATE: Monday, July 20
PROGRESS: The stalled beach project at the south end was expected to resume as early as Monday, but as of dusk, there was no sign of the dredging.
The Liberty Island reportedly returned from a seven-week repair in Norfolk, Va., and ran a test involving mostly water on Monday afternoon.
On the beach, work crews have set up the pipeline from 55th Street and are preparing to resume operations at 51st Street. It appears as if 51st Street will be the only beach entrance closed when work resumes.
Work is complete between 37th and 47th streets, and between 52nd and 55th streets.
WHAT’S NEXT: The project will proceed from 52nd Street to 47th Street, then from 55th to 59th (target date for completion is Sept. 9).
