to this port ' is the only water-grade

In conclusion, "Wa couldn't ? supply
enough small vessels to compete , with

give the following .results:

.Amount of dredging' required '.to re
move island., within harbor lines, to pro
vide a 40 foot low water depth is about
80,000,000 cubic yards."
-It is estimated this "material can be
moved for about 1Z cents per cuble yard,
If deposited within practicable operating
distance of the dredges.
Based on the price of II . cents per
cubic yard, the cost of the removal of
Swan island for the 85 foot depth would
be about 13,240,000. For tha 40 foot low
water depth, about 13,600,000.
