The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Philadelphia District (NAP), is conducting an Industry Day on 2 September 2026 to seek feedback from potential contractors on the Delaware Avenue Revetment CAP Section 14 Project in Cape May, NJ.
The purpose of the project is to manage the risk of on-going shoreline erosion along Delaware Avenue which is threatening the integrity of the road and a sanitary sewer utility line (8-inch force main) that runs along the northern right-of-way of the road, approximately 4 feet under the surface. The least cost alternative and selected plan identified in the feasibility study involves the removal of approximately 8,400 cubic yards (CY) of existing rubble (sand, rock, concrete and paving debris) along the shoreline and the placement of approximately 3,000 CY of rip-rap. Once the rip-rap is placed, the water ward side of the structure will be backfilled with approximately 5,000 CY of sand and planted with native wetland vegetation.
