The project also included repairing deteriorated locations of the sheet pile by means of underwater welding by a certified AWS welder, installation of cathodic protection anodes, which were welded to the sheet pile wall, application of a two-part anticorrosion inhibitor at various locations on 178 H pile, and the installation of cathodic protection pile jackets.
