 | The U.S. Army Engineer District, Galveston, proposed two modifications of the La Quinta navigation channel: (1) extension of the navigation channel and providing a new turning basin at the end of the extension, both having the same depth as that of the present navigation channel, namely 13.7 m (45 ft), and (2) constructing a barrier on the south side of the extended channel. The District requested the Coastal and Hydraulics ... |

| The U.S. Army Engineer District, Galveston, has proposed deepening the Corpus Christi Navigation Channel from 13.7 m (45 ft) to 15.2 m (52 ft) from Gulf of Mexico to Viola Turning Basin in Inner Harbor and widening the channel across Corpus Christi Bay from 122 m (400 ft) to 152.4 m (500 ft). The Galveston District requested the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) to conduct a desktop ... |

| Rollover Pass is a narrow manmade channel, which connects the Gulf of Mexico and Rollover Bay. The Gulf Intracoastal Water Way (GIWW) crosses the Rollover Bay on the north side of Rollover Pass. The U.S. Army Engineer District, Galveston, maintains a navigation channel, 38 m (125 feet) wide and 3. 6 m (12 feet) deep within the GIWW for commercial barge traffic. Over the past several years ... |

|
| A real time ship simulation investigation of the proposed design for deepening and widening the Alafia River Channel and turning basin, Tampa Bay, Florida, was conducted. Existing and proposed channel depths are 30 ft and 41 ft, respectively. The purpose of the study was to determine effects of proposed improvements on navigation with larger design ships and to assist in optimizing channel width and turning basin configuration required to efficiently ... |
