The ultimate construction of Pier 400 in Long Beach, California included seven miles of new navigation channels, ranging
between 45 and 81 feet below low water, with two turning basins. Moffatt & Nichol prepared construction documents

company assisted the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the preparation of construction documents.
Cost Analysis of Dredged Material Placement Alternatives,
Gulf Coast Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW)
Owner: USACE, Galveston District
This Cost Analysis project was completed as input to a new long-term dredged material management plan (DMMP)
and Supplemental EIS for the GIWW in the Laguna Madre. As a subconsultant, Moffatt & Nichol provided a cost
analysis of different placement alternatives for the purpose of determining a least environmentally damaging alternative.
The project also required detailed analysis of project demands on available dredging plants throughout the U.S.
