Around 100,000m³ of sand will be removed from key waterways in the Hawks Nest and Tea Gardens area, including the Lower Myall River, Corrie Channel, and Eastern Channel.
The sand will be stockpiled at the end of the Winda Woppa peninsula and later used to replenish Jimmys Beach after erosion events.
The dredging work, carried out by contractor Dredging Solutions, is expected to start in early March and finish by late October, weather permitting.
