Re: Gordon River Pass Dredging Request
Dear Congressman Clawson:
The Gordon River and Naples Bay, in Collier County, Florida flow into Gordon Pass. This is the most
significant pass in Collier County because it supports the commercial fishing (stone crab), sport fishing
and tourism industries. The pass is also used by residential and pleasure boaters throughout the county,
and supports the county's marinas. As the most significant shallow draft inlet within Collier County, the
pass also provides harbor safety during storm events to the wide variety of commercial and recreational
boating interests in our area.
The Gordon River Pass is a federally authorized project. Authorization for the Channel from Naples to
Big Marco Pass, Florida is found in House Document 596, 75th Congress, 3`a Session, and House
document 183, 86th Congress, ls` Session. The pass was last dredged by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) in 2010. The pass has been dredged on average every 4 to 5 years by the USACE,
and is in need of dredging this year because shoaling has diminished the water depth in the channel.
This project is "shovel ready" with all the required environmental and regulatory permitting in place to
begin immediate dredging. Dredging Gordon Pass will also provide the most economical sand disposal
option by providing beach-compatible sand to the adjacent downdrift beach.
As Chair of the Collier County Board of County Commissioners, I respectfully request that the USACE
budget full funding for Gordon Pass Dredging in the upcoming Civil Works Operations and Maintenance
Work Plan.
Thank you for your contributions to the Collier County community. Your support is greatly appreciated.
Please feel welcome to contact me if you need additional information or have any questions.
Respectfully, /
Commissioner Tim Nance, Chair
Board of County Commissioners
