The city of Paducah (Ky.) expects to spend thousands of dollars soon to reapply for a permit for strategic dredging of a sediment deposit affecting a business’ offloading of liquid asphalt and threatening the transient boat dock the city built in the last few years.
The dredging would not remove the entire mud and grass island at Ohio River Mile 935.2, downstream of the confluence of the Ohio and Tennessee rivers and immediately downriver from the city’s boat dock, as that would cost too much, City Engineer Rick Murphy said. Instead, it would remove the interfering portion of the deposit and potentially extend the pier of the affected business, Midwest Terminal, he said.
