This book was released on 1978 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental and economic concerns are providing impetus for an evolution in confined disposal site design and management. Some Districts are already experiencing economic pressures on their dredging programs. These pressures are generated by environmental factors--primarily changes in disposal procedures made necessary by legislation protecting surface and groundwater quality, wetlands, shorelines, etc.--and by inefficient conventional disposal practices which have used up most of the prime disposal sites. The reusable disposal site--boasting a long life and producing useful by-products--is the ultimate successor of the conventional site--too frequently short-lived, poorly engineered and operated, and failure-prone. Although this report promotes reusable disposal sites, nonreusable sites of a nonconventional nature are also discussed in detail for those situations where reusable sites are inappropriate or economically unsound. This report presents a logical, step-by-step methodology for site selection and design. The methodology is capable of handling anything from a single disposal site serving a single dredging location to an entire dredging program involving several dredging locations and disposal sites.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of research on disposal area reuse are simply to develop procedures for maintaining a dredged material disposal area for an indefinite period while providing environmentally acceptable disposal operations. The reusable dredged material disposal area is a collection and processing site where valuable portions of the dredged material are made available for productive use while unusable material is, if necessary, treated and disposed of. Methods and procedures must provide for continuous or periodic removal of dredged material for use or storage elsewhere in order to increase the life expectancy of the facility. In the Mobile Bay Area, plans for expansion of disposal areas have been abandoned in some cases because of objections from local residents and environmental constraints. Thus, the need for maximizing the useful life of existing sites in this area is pressing. This paper presents results from a field study in the Mobile Bay Area outlining the first steps taken toward the development of a reusable disposal area. Plans and concepts are discussed regarding the long range planning required to maintain use of sites for indefinite periods. This paper does not present a panecea for dredged material disposal problems because it is not available now nor will it be in the future. Each reusable disposal area will have to be developed based on its own needs and local environment. (Author).
Download or read book Publication Index and Retrieval System written by Herner and Company and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Publication Index and Retrieval System' is designed to facilitate dissemination of the information contained in the more than 200 reports resulting from the Dredged Material Research Program (DMRP) and to foster operational applications of their findings and conclusions. Information referenced in this document is applicable to project environmental assessments, detailed design, construction, and operation and maintenance as well as evaluation under requirements of regulatory functions programs. Chapter 1 contains abstracts of the DMRP Synthesis Reports, which present summaries of findings for each of the major DMRP objectives with emphasis on the significance and application of the information. Chapters 2-9 contain abstracts for each of the detailed reports; the abstracts are identified under the major DMRP objectives. Chapter 10 contains the abstracts of the reports on the field tests and demonstration projects concerned with the effects of dredged material disposal in open water and the use of dredged material for habitat creation. The abstracts are also indexed as follows: subject, geographic location, agency/organization, and author. (Author).
