Description: The US Army Corps of Engineers New England District Engineer received a permit application to conduct work in waters of the United States from Edge Cable Holdings USA, LLC. This work is proposed in the Nahant Bay/Atlantic Ocean in the waters of Lynn, Rockport, Gloucester, Manchester By-the-Sea, Beverly, Salem, Marblehead, and Swampscott, Massachusetts. The work involves the installation of a 1.5-inch diameter submarine fiber optic telecommunication cable system (the Amitie cable project) to link the United States, France, and the United Kingdom. The purpose is to improve telecommunication data transmission capacity and speeds in order to satisfy a growing demand for transmission capacity in the United States and Europe. From the rotary at the intersection of Nahant Road and Lynn Shore Drive in Lynn, MA, the cable would head east under Nahant Bay. The cable would then extend northeast under the waters of Swampscott, Marblehead, Salem, Beverly, Manchester-by-the-Sea, Gloucester, and Rockport. The cable would then continue northeast, avoiding the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary and then head further east to the limits of the EEZ.
