The Ponce De Leon Inlet dredging project, located near AICW Statute Mile 840-843, is currently underway, according to the U.S. Coast Guard’s announcement.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville District, started dredging operations in this area on May 5, 2015.

Mariners are advised to transit the area with caution and reduce speed in the vicinity of the dredger.
