2024-01-061 DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT – Replace existing Pier F within the Port of Galilee. Located at 270 Great Island Road, Narragansett, RI – plat I-G, lot 204-DS

2023-10-090 DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION – RI Bridge #292 (Nonquit Pond Bridge) will be removed and replaced by a new bridge comprised of a NEXT D prestressed concrete beam superstructure with bituminous wearing surface, concrete abutments, and steel micropiles drilled into bedrock. The proposed bridge will be widened by 8.5 feet (out to out) to address current safety hazards for pedestrians and emergency vehicles. Proposed abutments will be located behind the existing abutments, which will be cut down and the lower portion to remain as scour protection. In-water work is limited to control of water and dewatering around the substructure during demolition and repairs. A small area of unvegetated salt marsh (approx. 10 square feet) will be temporarily impacted during dewatering, however saltmarsh plantings are proposed within the area to mitigate for temporary impacts. Located on Pond Bridge Road, Tiverton, RI.
