The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District awarded a total of $9.3 million in contracts to Michigan-based Walsh Service Solutions, LLC on May 13 to conduct dredging of the federal navigation channels in Conneaut and Fairport harbor this summer.
Dredging of harbors like these ensures accessible depths for large vessels, the continued flow of commodities across the Great Lakes, and the economic viability of United States waterways.
