Island End River, Chelsea, Massachusetts. Detailed Project Report and Environmental Assessment. Revised,

Abstract

This study investigated navigation needs in Island End River, Chelsea, Mass., and to determine the advisability of providing navigation improvements for recreational boating. Results of analysis indicate the most feasible plan consists of a channel, 6 feet deep and 100 feet wide, from deep water in Mystic River Channel to a point off the proposed marina site for a total distance of 2500 feet. Plan is economically justified, a benefit-cost ratio of 5.8. (Author)
