Noyes, in charge of Al-| aska projects for the Seattle dis-| trict of that organization, who| arrived here last week. He has/ spent the past three months in the Territory, supervising work, hold- ing hearings, and making surveys. ‘The new Wrangell Narrows pro- ject involves deepening the north entrance to 24 feet and widening it to 275 feet. It is nmow 21 feet decp and 200 feet wide. Will Ease Curves It also calls for the easing of all the sharper curves in the channel, particularly as to shoals five, six seven and 12. In addition a num- ber of dangerous small pinacle rocks are to be removed. The es- timated cost of the project is $142,000. There are 10 other small Rivers & Harbors projects programmed | but up to the present time no funds have been made available for .them by the Public ‘Works Administration. During the current season,373,000 cubjc yards of maferial was re- moved in annual maintenance work by the :seagoing dredge Sol '8/ P. Minchie. This work was complet- ed September 5, and the dredge has returned to station in the States. James 71ruitt was engin- eer in charge. Add Nome Eguipment To take care of annual main- tenance work on Nome Harbor, the Board of Rivers & Harbors sent there for permanent station | a clamshell dredge, a tug and two smows, Lieut. Noyes said. This is one of the most imporfant addi- itons by the board made in the district. i At Seward, the Board's work this summer consisted of re-floor- ing the Lowell Creek flume, wrick- ed in 1931 by high water, and re- inforcing the breakwater at the Seward refuge harbor for small boats. Both are now in first class condition. Hearings Are Held A resurvey of the small harbor at Cordova was made by. Lieut. Noyes. No final action has vet been taken, or determined, in that work. A hearing was held at Ketchi- kan on the proposal to deepen the existing small boat refugee harbor. A report has heen made to the War Department which has disapproved the project. Lieut. Noyes will remain here until Thursday, conferring with Gov. John W. Troy and others relative to0 Rivers and Harbors works and other projects. He will leave here then for his home ip Seattle. : boat —_————— Head Coach A.
