The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has announced the completion of a $13 million rehabilitation project on the outer breakwater at Dunkirk Harbor. According to the USACE Buffalo District, the rehabilitation finished on October 19th, strengthening critical infrastructure that protects the harbor and the surrounding community from Lake Erie's powerful waves and ice. The federally funded project repaired approximately 2,300 linear feet of the 2,800-foot structure, addressing deterioration caused by years of exposure to harsh Great Lakes conditions. The improvements are designed to enhance structural stability, support safe navigation, and extend the service life of the breakwater.
