The Door County Economic Development Corporation has added its support to a grant application submitted by Bay Shipbuilding. The local firm is seeking continued funding from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation for the second phase of a three phase project that will improve the ship docking capacity at the south yard of the Sturgeon Bay ship builder. The second phase includes new dock wall along berth two and dredging berth two and three. According to the economic development corporation, the investment will have a huge impact to Bay Shipbuilding and Door County by generating new direct shipyard jobs and indirect work for suppliers of materials and equipment.
