Harbor Development 



A breakwater was constructed at St. Paul in Village Cove during 1984, but sub- 

 sequently failed during the storm season. A new breakwater was designed and 

 constructed by Tetra Tech, Inc., consultants to the City of St. Paul (Tetra Tech, Inc. 

 1987). The structure was 229 m (750 ft) in length and functioned well, with regard 

 to stability, during the 1985 and 1986 winter seasons. A 61-m-long (200-ft-long), 

 vertical- wall dock was subsequently installed in the lee of the breakwater to accom- 

 modate fishing vessels. The breakwater, however, was not of sufficient length to 

 provide wave protection to vessels using the dock, particularly during storm events. 



In 1989, construction of the current harbor was completed. A layout of the 

 harbor is shovra in Figure 2. It consists of a 549-m-long (1,800-ft-long) main 

 breakwater, a 296-m-long (970-ft-long) detached breakwater, and space for 274 m 

 (900 ft) of docks on the lee side of the main breakwater. The main breakwater.
