Sea wall & marina project is taking shape
The beautiful new sea wall at KML is really shaping up. This massive project began last fall with construction crews working long hours, often 6 days a week. The marina has been dredged and the big cranes and backhoes are gone now that the metal retaining wall is set, the pilings are in, and the boulders of rip-rap are in place.
Our new boat ramp is slowly materializing as concrete forms are pulled away. Quite a bit of work remains before the ramp and marina is usable.
The cement seawall cap is poured from the east end of KML, past the old observation deck and wet lab, and out to the old pump house. Progress has been slow but steady.
