The purpose of this Reformulation Phase 1 GDM is to reaffirm the viability of the 1969 plan in light of the changes that have occurred at the site since the project was authorized for construction, to develop a modified plan, or to recommend an entirely different plan (including 'no action'), if a different plan more nearly satisfies the criteria of engineering, environmental, economic, social, financial, and political feasibility. Reformulation is necessary because of the probable adverse environmental impact to the existing wetland area in the location where the authorized project was to be constructed. Methods to minimize the environmental impacts will be investigated and will include relocating the habor to avoid or reduce the amount of wetland disturbed, enhancement of the existing wetland area not affected by the harbor and creation of additional wetlands. If a viable plan is developed for the Geneva-on-the-Lake Small Boat Harbor project, an Environmental Impact Statement that addresses the existing physical condition at Geneva State Park and conforms with current policy and legislation, will be prepared. The environmental Impact Statement will, among other things, assess the impacts of the recommended plan on the existing wetland area.

Geneva-on-the Lake is located on the south shore of Lake Erie about 17 miles east of Fairport Harbor, OH., and 12 miles west of Ashtabula Harbor, OH., both of which are federally approved deep-draft harbors. Geneva-on-the-Lake was identified as a promising location for a small boat harbor and harbor of refuge because of its strategic location within the boundaries of a state recreational park which is presently still being developed by the state of Ohio. Its proximity to productive fishing grounds and the appreciable boating demands are additional reasons. (Author).

This Reformulation Phase I GDM study is to develop a final plan to modify Cleveland Harbor for safe and efficient operation of 1,000-foot vessels in the Lakefront Harbor. The recreational fishing plan recommended in the 1976 Feasibility Report, Problem Identification, during coordination of the Plan of Study for this study and subsequent correspondence, local interests expressed the need for further modifications to the general navigation features of Clevela and Harbor in the interest of commercial navigation. These additional modifications include: (1) deepening the Cuyohoga River such that the depth of the navigation channel would be compatible with the Great Lakes System's draft of 25 feet (Note: The Cuyahoga River is presently authorized for a 23-foot project forced to lighter (reduce their draft) or come into Cleveland Harbor light loaded before proceeding upriver); (2) modify the Cayuhoga River navigation channel at various locations where undue vessel delays are encountered due to physical restrictions in the channel; and (3) completion of the authorized uncompleted improvements on the Old River (discussed in greater detail in Section II of the Main Report, Problem Identification).

This Reformulation Phase I GDM study is to develop a final plan to modify Cleveland Harbor for safe and efficient operation of 1,000-foot vessels in the Lakefront Harbor. The recreational fishing plan recommended in the 1976 Feasibility Report will also be reevaluated. However, as will be discussed in Section II of the Main Report, Problem Identification, during coordination of the Plan of Study for this study and subsequent correspondence, local interests expressed the need for further modifications to the general navigation features of Cleveland Harbor in the interest of commercial navigation. These additional modifications include: (1) deepening the Cuyahoga River such that the depth of the navigational channel would be compatible with the Great Lakes System's draft of 25.5 feet (Note: The Cuyahoga River is presently authorized for a 23-foot project depth and can accommodate a vessel loaded to about 21 feet. Thus, vessels are forced to lighter (reduse their draft) or come into Cleveland Harbor light-load before proceeding upriver); (2) modify the Cayuhoga River navigation channel at various locations where undue vessel delays are encountered due to physical restrictions in the channel; and (3) completion of the authorized but uncomplete improvements on the Old River (discussed in greater detail in Section II of the Main Report, Problem Identification).

This report recommends that a small-boat harbor and harbor-of-refuge and recreational fishing facilities be constructed as an integral part of the State Park at Geneva-on-the-Lake, OH, and that the selected plan of improvement, known as Alternative Plan 3b, (Modified Wetland/Parking Lot Harbor) be used as a basis for the Phase II General Design Memorandum. The total first cost of the project, on August 1981 price levels, is a $5,816,000 consisting of: $2,870,000 Corps of Engineers; $76,000 U.S. Coast Guard; and $2,870,000 non-Federal. These recommendations are made with the understanding that non-Federal interests must furnish assurances satisfactory to the Secretary of the Army with regard to 15 listed provisos.
