The contractor continues to stockpile jetty armor stone at the barge loading facility at the Port of Garibaldi. The stone is also now being transported across the bay by barge to the Material Offloading Facility at Kincheloe Point. The contractor expects stone placement on the jetty to commence soon. Placement will start at the landward end of the jetty (at the root where the jetty ties into the spit) and will progress seaward (to the west). The start date for stone placement depends on some factors but the range of expected start dates is June 24, 2024 to July 8, 2024.
