Committee backs revised 4 Mill Point float and dredge plan with conditions

Harwich Waterways Committee · August 19, 2026

Summary

The committee supported revisions to a previously approved 4 Mill Point float/dredge project, noting small changes in footprint and dredge volume and requesting clarified dredge‑disposal and pre‑construction communication protocols.

Applicants from Timebond presented revisions to a project that had prior approvals in 2022 and 2025. The updated plan shifts the dock location slightly and removes a prior proposal to place dredge spoils on site; the team told the committee dredged material will instead be taken to an approved offsite disposal facility (candidates mentioned included Bourne or Middleboro facilities) and that they will provide a supplemental narrative for conservation describing disposal and timing.

Timebond noted modest changes in numeric controls on the project—maximum extent beyond mean high water increased slightly (61 ft to 64 ft), dredge volume rose by three cubic yards (92 to 95 cubic yards), and adjacent‑structure distances improved in the revision. The committee voted to support the revised plan and asked the applicants to provide a clear dredge disposal plan and pre‑construction coordination notes for Conservation review and the pre‑construction meeting.
