Dredging of harbors across Ohio ensures accessible depths for large vessels, the continued flow of commodities across the Great Lakes, and the economic viability of United States waterways.
Over 27.5 million tons of commodities – including iron ore, limestone, coal, and salt – pass through the state’s seven commercially utilized harbors annually, supporting more than 5,500 jobs and nearly $1.4 billion in business revenue each year.
After dredging nearly 1.2 million cubic yards of sediment from Ohio harbors in 2025, there is more work to be done to address annual shoaling, clean up a backlog and avoid future issues.
Ohio’s harbors are facing potential challenges in 2026 and beyond due to limited funding for dredging and space for the dredged material.
