Bodega Bay is located in Sonoma County on the California Coast about 60 miles north of San Francisco. “The County’s federal legislative program delivered a homerun with securing over $4 million for much needed Bodega Bay dredging,” said Sonoma County Board of Supervisors Chairwoman Shirlee Zane. “The County appreciates the support of Congressmen Huffman and Thompson and others who helped deliver this funding and is grateful to former Director Caryl Hart for her advocacy efforts in this competitive funding process. This is another great example of how our region is working together to deliver federal funding for local projects that support our economy and strategic priorities.” Bodega Bay’s Operations and Maintenance schedule provides for periodic inspection and repair of three breakwaters and infrequent (11-year cycle) maintenance dredging of the Federal Channel to a depth of 12 feet. Recent sounding surveys indicate that shoaling, or a growing mound of sediment, is occurring and dredging is required. The last dredging episode was in 2004, with the entire 120,000 cubic yards of materials disposed of at a Deep Offshore Disposal Site located approximately 60 miles from Bodega Bay. ![]() More Bodega Bay (2017) videos.
