Bush, Commissioner October 12, 2022 City of Port Arthur Texas General Land Office • George P. Bush, Commissioner Johanna Valente, CEPRA Project Manager This project would restore the remains of a 15-acre island that once protected the navigation channel at the northern end of Sabine Lake at Pleasure Island by using dredged material to build up the island and construct up to 2000 feet of breakwater. The project would also restore up to 40 acres of island habitat on the Sabine-Neches Waterway in Jefferson County, along the southern boundary of the navigation channel separating the channel from the Sabine Lake. The restored habitat would contain wetlands and vegetated shallows. Based on available funding, the project also could be configured as a single breakwater without beneficial use of dredged material (BUDM) or planting. This could reduce the project cost by approximately $2.5 million. Texas General Land Office George P. Bush, Commissioner 1996 2019 Texas General Land Office George P.
