Dredging Thimble Shoals Channel

Ship Channel Dredging The clam shell dredge lifts a load of mud and sand while a container ship heads up the Thimble Shoal Channel on Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2019. The dredging project will both deepen and widen the channel along with two others. Once complete, two ships will be able to pass each other. (Steve Earley/The Virginian-Pilot)
