The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway is a large body of water used by shallow-draft commercial and private vessels. Waterways are maintained by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for 1,088 miles between places like Norfolk, Virginia and Miami, Florida. The AIWW is permitted to reach 12 feet depth and 90 feet width in land cuts and 150 feet in open water areas (capca). U.S. Treasury Secretary Albert Gallatin submitted a comprehensive plan to bring the new nation together with roads and canals. government sponsored system in 1808 (cacca). He had the idea of ​​creating an inland waterway along the Atlantic coast from Boston, Massachusetts to St. Mary's, Georgia. The ideal would primarily require the construction of four canals, estimated to cost $3 million. He believed that his entire program could be completed in ten years (capca). From 1907 to 1947, the Atlantic Deeper Waterways Association was organized in Philadelphia to lobby for the construction of an inland waterway from Boston to Key West (capca). In 1947, the entire Intracoastal Waterway continued in a series of projects of various names until 1947, when all but the last two southern sections were collectively chosen as the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway between Norfolk, Virginia and St. Johns River, Florida (cacca). The shipping canals including the waterway to the north and sections between the St. Johns River and Key West remain separate projects. The Deeper Waterways Association was disbanded, its members believing their work was done. In 1999, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway Association encouraged the continuation and development of the river market and restoration of places on the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. ......4,000 jobs alone, with no maintenance on deck, North Carolina lost 1,723 jobs (capca). One of the downsides of the security zone is that the Coast Guard has halted the movement of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway because it would put people out of work who rely on the waterway to carry out their daily tasks there, such as fishermen, cruise ships and shipping companies. This could cause economic difficulties for businesses, which could jeopardize their future. With jobs on the line, the safety zone cannot last long without causing problems, causing people working on the bridge to rush and leave the bridge incomplete or half-finished. I think the safety zone would be the best way to complete the bridge project without having any complications or fear of someone tampering with the bridge..
