Every year a fleet of county dredges slowly rebuilds Cape Cod.  From October to mid-June, the fleet works against the currents that carry sand into the waterways that Cape Codders depend on for everything from commerce to leisure to public safety.  Egg-beater-like cutterheads affixed to the dredges dip beneath the cold waves to stir and suck up wayward sand slurry, which is pumped through thousands of feet of pipe to pad parts of the peninsula that Cape Codders want to preserve, including beaches that would gradually erode if it weren’t for the dredges’ loads. The county purchased its first cutterhead suction dredge, christened the Cod Fish I, in 1996. In the 24 years following that purchase, the dredging program completed roughly 300 projects.
