STONE HARBOR JOB FAIR: Those seeking summer jobs in both Stone Harbor and Avalon should plan to attend the Stone Harbor Job Fair on Saturday, April 14th, from 10am to 2pm. The job fair will be at Coffee Talk, at 299 97th Street; employers from Seven Mile Beach will be present to meet with applicants.

ONE ALTERNATING LANE will be available to motorists on the Townsend’s Inlet Bridge, as an ongoing maintenance project continues through mid-June. Deteriorated railings on the bridge are being removed and replaced in four phases, as the alternating traffic is controlled by a temporary signal system. Marine traffic is unaffected by the current project. The recent repairs and associated shut-downs of the bridge have officials examining all options for the future of the 80-year-old span, including a major overhaul (the least expensive option) or a full replacement (the most expensive).
DREDGING OF THE INTRACOASTAL WATERWAY is slated to take place this month behind Stone Harbor. The US Army Corp of Engineers is overseeing the small project, which will take place between ICW buoy markers 419 and 421. Dredged sand will be placed on the Ring Island nesting bird habitat over a period of about a week. The Wetlands Institute will monitor conditions at that site.
