Maintenance dredging is one of the most significant aspects of the dredging industry. Whatever a man-made channel or a natural harbor, dredging must be done periodically to keep it clear and safe for navigation. Also, the site of this dredging project is close to Buffalo Harbor State Park. In November 2014, this park was scheduled to be under the management of the New York State Office of Parks, and there were $15 million funds used for the development of this park. The purpose of renewal for this park is to revitalize Buffalo’s outer harbor. Then, this new park officially opened to the public on May 24, 2015. Under this case, the completion of this project will also help to provide a better view of this park to the visitors, meeting the goal to revitalize Buffalo’s outer harbor.
