side of the existing structures, filling the voids with stone, and
capping the structure with concrete. Widths of the pier ranged from

were repaired during this period. These piers were
repaired similar to the earlier ones by the installation of steel
sheetpiling on each side of the existing pier. Voids were again
stone filled and the structure capped (Figure 116, Section H; and
K, K2, and L ) . Widths of the rehabilitated

structure sections ranged from 30 to 42 ft.
Riprap ranging from 1 to 6 tons was placed along the lakeside face of
1981
the north pier (Figure 114, Section A. Approximately 1,788 tons of
)
stone was used that extended from the head of the pier 600 ft shore-
ward. Also, 38 tons of 2- to 4-in. stone was placed under the caps
to replenish fill stone.
Approximately 1,029 tons of riprap was placed along the north pier

the purpose. Additionally, 40 tons of 1- to 3-ft stone was placed
under the caps of the south pier to replenish fill stone.
About 600 tons of 6- to 12-ton riprap was placed along the lakeside
1983
of the north pier shoreward of the riprap placement of 1981 and 1982.
An inspection of the structures revealed that the north pier was in

stable and in fair condition. Separation, settle-
ment, and cracking of the superstructure was noted, and maintenance
repairs have been recommended. The remaining portions of the south
pier were in good to excellent condition. An aerial view of the
South Haven Harbor piers is shown in Figure 118.
