Regional Landfill and Construction Material Needs in Terms of Dredged Material Characteristics and Availability. Volume 1. Main Text
Abstract
A survey of the regional needs for landfill and construction material indicated that such needs vary substantially due to population shifts and economic growth of specific regions. The following actions were concluded to be required to make dredged material a sought-after resource: (1) A detailed inventory of all identified future development projects with regional development maps that show anticipated long-range needs of fill materials; (2) Adoption of methodologies for selection and acceptance of sites for disposal and stockpiling of dredged material; (3) Development of techniques for placing, control, and dewatering of fine-grained hydraulic fill material to decrease time of consolidation; and, (4) Identification of the most economical application of present techniques for disposal of dredged material and, if necessary, development of new techniques.
