This issue was brought to the attention of the Army Corp of Engineers back in August of 2022 which is when this video was published

Glad to see something is finally being done about it...
6 or 7 years ago we had a really bad problem at Leonardo State marina. It was so bad that at low tide the center of the channel marina was around 2 feet. Here again, even with the state behind us, it took 2 years to get the area dredged and we had to keep the issue white hot in order to get their attention and make it a priority.
Only way to get them to do anything is to keep on bothering them until it bubbles up to certain people and they finally get tired of having to make excuses to answer the public's needs and finally force them to do their job so they keep us flies off their back...
