“ Oswego Harbor is a critical component of the Great Lakes Navigation System, supporting economic growth and strategic value to the nation ,” said Lt. Col. Robert Burnham , USACE Buffalo District commander. “ We look forward to delivering this project on time and within budget, ensuring Oswego’s waterfront continues serving the local community and the country .”
Construction from mid-July through October 2024 is focusing on the remaining lighthouse foundation and lakeside, middle portions of the breakwater.
USACE previously completed repairs to 1,100 feet of the West Arrowhead Breakwater’s lake side in 2018 and 2019, and the lighthouse foundation in 2023. These portions will not require additional repairs during the current project.
Repairs to the remainder of the West Arrowhead Breakwater are being conducted under a separate contract, with work continuing through summer 2025. Repairs to Oswego’s Outer West Breakwater are planned for 2025.
