Abstract: This report discusses the allision of the high-speed passenger ferry Seastreak Wall Street with Pier 11/Wall Street in lower Manhattan, New York City, on January 9, 2013.

  • Buy America Waiver New Jersey Seastreak's Ferry Vessel Repower
    DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION P.O. Box 600 Trenton, New Jersey 08625-0600 CHRIS CHRISTIE Governor RICHARD T. HAMMER Acting Commissioner KIM GUADAGNO Lt. Governor Buy America Waiver Request July 29, 2016 Robert Clark Division Administrator Federal Highway Administration 840 Bear Tavern Road W. Trenton, NJ 08628 Attn: John Miller Project Purpose: SeaStreak’s Ferry Vessel Repower Total Estimated Project Cost: $6,800,000 Funding: $3,400,000 from CMAQ and $3,400,000 from SeaStreak (50% match) Dear Mr. Clark, NJDOT is requesting a “Buy America” waiver for the purchase of propulsion engines, gearboxes, and Jetdrive propulsion thrusters for the SeaStreak Ferry Vessel Repower Project. This project proposes to repower the propulsion engines on two SeaStreak ferry vessels, the M/V New Jersey and M/V New York with new engines certified to EPA Tier 3 emission standards. The current engines were manufactured in 2001 and carry an EPA Tier 1 rating. These two ferry vessels operate between Atlantic Highlands, NJ and downtown Manhattan as commuter ferries and is an eligible Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) funding project as it will reduce emissions and provide significant air quality benefits. The four existing engines on these ferries were manufactured in 2001 and carry an EPA Tier 1 rating. The proposed project consists of removing the four propulsion engines and installing two higher horsepower engines in their place on each vessel. The total overall vessel horsepower will be reduced from 7,500 HP to 6,012 HP. With this approach of migrating from four to two engines, a significant amount of weight will be removed from the vessels.
