Note below as received from Cape Cod Canal Traffic Control:
 
Good Morning Rich/Chris,
 
I wanted to give you advance notice that as of now, Great Lakes plans to sink the pipeline to cross the East Entrance Channel of the Canal on Sunday 10/20 around the noontime slack water.
They have told us that they will need approximately 4 hours to complete the job. We are planning channel closure from 1015 – 1415.
 
2340 feet of pipe has already been positioned on the bottom with four more sections be brought out and submerged on Sunday.
The dredge Illinois is anchored in position off Scusset and is scheduled to commence dredging operations later next week.
 
Please let Joe or myself know if you have any questions or concerns.
