It’s important to understand that while some dredged material is contaminated and deposited in confined disposal facilities (CDFs), a significant amount of it can be reused. Fortunately, after being in business for more than 20 years and supplying high-quality dredging and pumping systems to customers around the world, this is a question we’re well-equipped to answer. Knowing this, it’s only logical that many of our customers ask what to do with sediment after dredging. That doesn’t even include the sand, clay, dirt and trash dredged from other bodies of water not associated with marine traffic such as ponds, lakes and reservoirs. In fact, each year, more than 100 million cubic yards of material is dredged from our country’s busy waterways, marinas, harbors and ports alone.
While the objectives of dredging vary from deepening harbors and waterways to excavation and reclamation, it always results in a certain amount of dredged material being left over after the project is complete. Dredging is defined as cleaning out the bed of a body of water by scooping out silt, mud, trash or other materials.
