Oh well, "some American military officials say"…

U.S. Pier for Gaza Aid Is Failing, and Could Be Dismantled Early

In the month since it was attached to the shoreline, the pier has been in service only about 10 days. The rest of the time, it was being repaired after rough seas broke it apart, detached to avoid further damage or paused because of security concerns.

…it was only supposed to be a temporary fix anyway. And 10 days is about as temporary as you can get, pierwise.

The pier is said (by the Times) to have cost $230 million (and counting, presumably). So, $23 million per day.
