GSL Slip Renters and Marina Users. Dredging is almost complete. It will wrap up in the next few hours (around 3pm this afternoon). The barge has already left for Promontory Point. We are now just doing some cleanup work. We want to keep the marina mouth closed until around 2pm this afternoon. After that, you should be free to use the marina mouth. Some important notes below. 1. The dredging was focused on the marina mouth as you start your starboard turn to leave the marina. It continued for a very short distance outside the marina mouth heading towards the red buoy (R-12) 2. There are still some shallow areas in the marina itself. These should pose little problem this year though. 3. We have probed the depths in the dredged area. They look good. What used to be 4' to 5.2' appears to now be around 7' to 9.5'. BUT, there is so much suspended mud and silt that our depth sounders are almost useless. It will take days for this silt to settle down. Once this happens, we can be more thorough in sounding the dredged area. 4. We do not think that any large rocks were dislodged but we cannot confirm this at this time. 5. It will likely be a month or two before we are completely confident of all the work done and all the depths reached. 6. Some portions of the north breakwall were cut away to create a wider mouth. But I would still keep some distance from the breakwalls until we have a further understanding of the work completed. So, after 2pm this afternoon, you may use the marina mouth. BUT USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK. USE EXTREME CAUTION. Keep your path generally to the center throughout the marina mouth. Keep some distance from each breakwall. Thank you, for your patience during this work. I also want to thank Dave Phillips, Fred Cannon, Trestlewood/Cannon Structures, and their subcontractor. These people were efficient and and quite talented during this project. And thanks to all who harrassed me about the improper use of the word "Hutle" rather than "Hurdle" We will be posting some Navigation Notices over the next few days. These will deal with a large structure on the water surface near Eardley Spit, along with repositioning a couple of the Deep Channel buoys. Thank you Dave Shearer Harbormaster Great Salt Lake Marina
