Latimer Continues Infrastructure Upgrades to Vital County Facilities.

 

(White Plains, NY) – Continuing a line of projects aimed to improve infrastructure of vital County facilities, County Executive George Latimer is announcing a $6M project rehabbing the Mamaroneck Outfall Jetty to protect the Mamaroneck WRRF outfalls against erosion damage and future storm surges.

 

Latimer said: “Keeping in line with my Administration’s philosophy of fixing things that are broken, this project aims to repair this important piece of infrastructure to provide increased safety and increased protection against future climate change induced storms.”

 

The Mamaroneck Outfall Jetty rehabilitation project work includes installation of new steel sheeting in front of the existing deteriorated steel bulkhead, placing concrete between the two sheeting bulkheads, placement of stone rip-rap in front of the new steel sheeting (for protection and to promote marine habitat) and improvements to the walkway on top of the jetty.
