Reconnaissance Report Section 107, Weeks Bay, Baldwin County, Alabama

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of dredging a small craft navigation channel from the mouths of Fish and Magnolia Rivers through Weeks Bay into Bon Secour Bay, which is an arm of Mobile Bay. The conclusion of the report indicates that channel dredging is not economically justified and that no further studies are warranted at this time. Keywords: Bays/rivers/estuaries; Channels waterways.
