Escambia County is seeking the services of a licensed marine contractor with dredging experience to dredge the entryway of Lafitte Cove Canal. The contractor is to mechanically dredge within the permitted 200' x 65' area to -5.0' Mean Low Water at the entrance of Lafitte Cove Canal (See attached ACOE and FDEP permits for exact dredge area). The estimated dredged quantity per dredge event is approximately 800 cubic yards. The dredged material is to be transported to an upland site located south of Pensacola Beach Blvd. Water Towers (See attached Dredge Site and Dredge transport Site Maps).

Unless absolutely necessary to maintain navigation within Lafitte Cove Canal, dredging shall be avoided when shorebirds are nesting within the dredge material discharge site. Work to be completed before March 14th, 2026. No Work may be performed during protected shorebird nesting season (spring-summer months.)
