The proposed project, located in Port Aransas, Nueces County, Texas, is needed to accommodate transit of fully laden very large crude carriers (VLCCs) that draft approximately 70 feet.
The deepening activities will be completed within the footprint of the authorized PCCA channel width.

The public meeting will be presented online to provide information about the proposed project and to receive public input and comment on the draft EIS.
