en.Wedoany.com Reported - The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) Office of Maritime Resources has completed emergency dredging of the Wells Hall Waterway in Manasquan.
The work was conducted from April 21 to May 6, placing 38,000 cubic yards of sand onto Fisherman's Cove Beach, expanding the beach area for the summer of 2026 while alleviating critical shoals to ensure navigational safety for New Jersey's commercial fishing industry.
The project restored the waterway to a permitted depth of 13 to 14 feet below mean low water to address severe shoaling that had developed within the channel.
All material removed from the waterway was conveyed via pipeline and placed as beach fill on Fisherman's Cove Beach in Manasquan, Monmouth County.
The project was completed by NJDOT contractor H&L Construction LLC.
