7. Hurricane Project Committee


Report to the Annual Town Meeting - March 1962 By the Fairhaven Planning Committee for the New Bedford - Fairhaven Hurricane Project Committee


Your committee is recommending approval of legislation on (Senate Bill #588, copies of which have been sent to all Town Meeting Members by the Town Clerk) which, if adopted by the Massachusetts legislature, will have the com- bined effect of reducing the Fairhaven share together with setting in motion construction of the vitally needed Hurri- cane Flood Protection Project. At the risk of repeating statements we have made in previous reports, we would like


220


to point out the following facts:


THE NEED


I Financial


A. Total loss from "Carol" in 1954 $27,340,000


1. Fairhaven's loss (not including areas outside dike) 2,460,000


B. Potential Total Loss Under "Design" Hurricane Conditions (Design Hurricane based on 1944 winds and 1954 path) 96,000,000


II Employment (See Appendix I)


A. Estimated New Jobs if Dike is Erected Number of Jobs Per Industrial Plants 2,670


Per Harbor Development Comm. 2,000 4,670


B. Estimated Loss in Jobs if Dike is not


Erected and New Bedford is struck by


Design Hurricane Probable 4,050


Possible 5,700 9,750


GRAND TOTAL POSSIBLE IMPACT


ON EMPLOYMENT 14,420


In addition, the construction of the dike itself will pro- vide approximately 300 jobs for a period of three to four years.


III Safety


Many of our residents are engaged in waterfront work which means that when we are hit by hurricane floods, even with good advance warnings, the lives of many people engaged in such activities are in grave jeopardy. The proposed dike would protect the harbor area which would have the highest concentration of such activity.


THE COST


Total Estimated Construction Cost $17,300,000


Less Pre-Authorization Costs Not Subject


to Reimbursement 120,000


Capital Cost to be Distributed $17,180,000


Federal Contribution - 70%


$12,026,000


Local Contribution - 30% of Construction Cost, Land Easements, etc. 5,154,000


Capitalized Maintenance and Operation 1,520,000


TOTAL LOCAL CONTRIBUTION $6,674,000


Based on the above costs and the passage of Senate Bill #588 with the local share distributed according to losses in the 1954 hurricane, and assuming a State bond issue


221


3 1/2 % interest, the approximate costs are as follows:


Bond Issue


50 years


30 years


Cost per $100,000 (Interest and


Principal) $ 4,263


$ 5,437


Cost per year


State


50.0%


$142,257


$181,437


New Bedford


45.0%


128,031


163,293


Fairhaven


4.5%


12,803


16,329


Acushnet


.5%


1,423


1,814


In addition to the above cost, Fairhaven will be asked to maintain the East Fairhaven section of the dike. Cost of maintaining this section would run from a hundred dollars or less to possibly a few hundred dollars in some years. The center section of the dike extending from the Fort Phoenix Area to New Bedford would be main- tained by the Army Engineers, and the cost of mainten- ance is included in the total local cost.


There are other distinct possibilities for reducing the local share, the principal of which is the passage of the Keith-McCormack Bill which would reduce the local share of the capital cost from 30% to the same as the share of fresh water projects currently running from 0% to 22%.


In the motion that we will propose to the Town Meeting, we will ask that the Town Meeting limit Fairhaven's share to 41/2% of the total local cost. This percentage limitation will allow the Town to benefit by any future changes such as passage of the Keith-McCormack Bill and, at the same time, will allow construction of the project to start this year if the State legislature also approves the Bill. Payments by the Town to the State would commence next year.


QUESTIONS


The United States Army Corps of Engineers have been working on this project for approximately six years and have expended more than $600,000 on the study and construction plans. With their vast experience on flood projects added to their six-year hurricane studies in New Bedford Harbor and the Providence Area, they have the following answers to the most commonly asked questions in Fairhaven.


1. Installation of the dike will definitely NOT increase the level of the water outside of the dike to any height which can be measured. In other words, the


222


danger of flooding areas adjacent to the dike would NOT be increased.


2. The dike will NOT make the sewer conditions worse.


3. The dike will NOT make icing conditions worse.


4. The dike will NOT increase silting in the harbor.


CONCLUSION


We respectfully request favorable consideration by the Town Meeting. We honestly believe that construction of the dike will greatly assist in the economic revival of the area and that it will lessen the dangers faced by many of our citizens working along the waterfront dur- ing periods of flooding.


Respectfully sbmitted,

APPENDIX I


REPORT


From: Richard J. Wengraf, New Bedford City Planner


Subject: Industry Sample Survey of Effects of Hurricanes on Employment


Date: 9 November 1961


During the past several weeks the members of the Hurri- cane Protection Committee and the City Planning Depart- ment circulated a questionnaire among a sampling of firms in buildings subject to flooding, to ascertain what effect flooding by a "design" hurricane might have on the firms and their employment, and on the other hand, what effect the completed hurricane protection project might have on their plans for future expansion.


The results of this mail survey are summarized below: Firms responding: 31 Number of Jobs in responding firms: 10,050


Number of firms which would certainly, or probably, leave the area if struck by a design hurricane: 14


223


Jobs involved: 4,050


(Several firms plan to leave even without a design hur- ricane, because of the uncertainty caused by hurricane threats.)


Number of firms which would possibly relocate if struck by a design hurricane: 6


Jobs involved: 5,700


Number of firms contemplating expansion if project is completed : 8


Estimated number of additional jobs: 2,670


(Four firms would expand without specifying the number of jobs.)


In addition, the director of the Harbor Development Com- mission estimates that, as a consequence of adequate pro- tection from flooding, 2,000 jobs would be created in five years on land subject to development by the Harbor Devel- opment Commission.


The questionnaire survey thus showed that the difference between building or not building the hurricane protection project might be about 12,400 jobs for this area, taking into account only those firms which responded to the question- naire. In evaluating these figures it should be remembered that they represent answers of only a sample of the affected firms, although most of the major employers in the area were contacted, and that a complete canvass of all affected firms would undoubtedly show a very substantial increase in the above employment figures.


In trying to evaluate the effect of the hurricane protection project on employment, it should be remembered that virtu- ally all the firms contacted furnished "basic employment"; that is, the firms products are sold primarily outside the Greater New Bedford area. Such jobs furnish the money which enables the area to support trades, services, secondary industries, and local government. One "basic" job directly or indirectly creates at least one, probably more, other jobs.

U. S. ARMY ENGINEER DIVISION, NEW ENGLAND


Corps of Engineers 424 Trapelo Road Waltham 54, Mass.


9 November 1961 Mr. James B. Buckley, Vice President Revere Copper & Brass Incorporated 24 North Front Street


New Bedford, Massachusetts


Dear Mr. Buckley :


Reference is made to your letter of 6 November 1961 and the enclosed article "Fairhaven Group Asks Tests of Dike Model" in the November 3, 1961 New Bedford Standard- Times relative to the New Bedford, Fairhaven, and Acushnet Hurricane Project.


While it is true that a particular model of hurricane struc- tures at New Bedford, Fairhaven has not been constructed and tested, this was not the result of oversight. Serious thought was given to this facet, so that our design would provide the greatest possible protection without detrimental effects. Two and a half decades of experience with design and construction of flood control projects and continuing re- search into water resource development problems attest to the structural integrity and successful operation of Corps of Engineer projects.


You will recall that Hurricane Protection was a relatively new field when assigned to the Corps of Engineers for study following the 1954 hurricanes. Early in the studies it was recognized that a model should be constructed in order to obtain basic data to verify research and to provide needed design criteria. Because the Narragansett Bay area had more complicated and varied problems, and had sustained the greatest concentrated damage in New England from Hur- ricane flooding, it was decided to construct the model of the Narragansett Bay area. Data obtained from these model studies is being applied, with proper interpretation, to other hurricane projects nationwide.


Data obtained from the studies of the Narragansett Bay model were used to establish the design of criteria for the New Bedford, Fairhaven Hurricane Project. Cooperating agencies in the research and basic studies and which contri- buted to the design criteria at New Bedford included:


(a) Waterways Experiment Station, Corps of Engineers.


(b) Beach Erosion Board, Corps of Engineers.


225


(c) U. S. Weather Bureau.


(d) Texas A and M Research.


All the design criteria for the New Bedford Project have been approved. There are no unresolved problems. The New Bedford, Fairhaven Hurricane Project will have no measur- able effect on the water level before it. Principal reasons for this are, the harbor area is small compared with the area of Buzzards Bay and the length of the New Bedford Harbor is small compared with the length of a tidal surge.


If there had been any question on interpretation of data or design criteria for the project by the consulting and co- operating agencies, a model would have been recommended. Research and detailed studies provided reliable data for de- sign so that no model of the New Bedford Project was necessary.


Sincerely yours, JOHN WM. LESLIE, Chief, Engineering Division
