Alaska DEC Section 401 certification review for dock removal and rock fill in Petersburg

The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation is reviewing a water-quality certification request for dock removal and rock fill at Wrangell Narrows in Petersburg, Alaska. - Government agency: Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC); the request is associated with a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit application. - Applicant and named supplier: Mazzella Alaska, LLC is the project applicant; clean shot rock is identified as sourced from Reid Brothers Quarry in Petersburg. - Proposed materials: 3,000 cubic yards of clean shot rock, 320 cubic yards of armor rock, and 250 cubic yards of D1 crushed rock. - Proposed work: Remove 110 feet of deteriorating dock and creosote-treated wooden piles, then place rock fill within an approximately 110-by-35-foot area to create parking and stabilize access to the remaining dock and cannery site. The fill would be contained by a 5:1 sloped armor-rock wall. - Notable project requirements: Work is proposed from existing uplands during low tide. The application describes limiting the fill footprint, managing discharge from uplands, and replacing creosote piles with clean native shot rock. - Opportunity type: This is a regulatory certification notice seeking public comment and possible hearing requests on water-quality matters, not a procurement solicitation or award. No OEM-made products for government purchase are identified.
