New Docks & New Breakwater Slated for Port Austin Harbor

The conference will feature an overview of the results of the harbor wave research and marketing analysis, as well as preliminary redevelopment and design plans for the proposed docks and new breakwater choices. It will be hosted in collaboration with project consultants Edgewater Resources. During the meeting, attendees will have the opportunity to provide comments and ask questions.
