201. Construction of Water-boat Dock at Laichikok.--This work was referred to in paragraph 190 of last year's Report,
The dredging of trenches for the rubble mound foundations was carried out by Chinese dredgers until the 15th February, when, owing to the slow progress made, they were replaced by Grab Dredger No. 2, which was supplemented by Grab Dredger No. 1 during the months of March to July inclusive. About one-third of the necessary dredging has been completed by the end of the year.
About 240 lin. feet of the Nullah, North of the Water-boat Dock, was completed, and approximately 9,000 cubic yards of rubble dumped into the dredged trenches. A much larger quantity of rubble was required, but it was not obtainable owing to the strike of stone-collecting coolies.
