Please note that all measurements are referenced to Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) and not high tide as indicated in the Town’s survey questions. The Shem Creek channel has an authorized depth of 10 feet MLLW, so it can be seen that overall, the channel is performing well since our last maintenance dredging performed in 2014, despite several coastal storms from 2015 to 2019. Current conditions easily serve the commercial, shrimping, and recreational vessels that utilize and visit Shem Creek and provide for unimpeded access to deeper harbor waters even at low tide. The last survey was conducted in November of 2020 and conditions are monitored to request federal funding and schedule maintenance operations as needed. As with all federal funding, it is appropriated by Congress, and the Corps cannot make a guarantee for future funding on behalf of Congress.
