Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effects that dredging and disposing of dredged material will have on the environment have come into sharper focus within the last decade. As a result, the Army Corps of Engineers has been required by legislation, litigation, and regulations to modify its practices. The Corps has undertaken a research program and changed its dredging practices at certain locations, but at much higher costs. The research is still incomplete, and the cause-and-effect relationships between materials considered contaminated and significant damage, especially long-term damage, have not been determined. Before appropriating funds for channel maintenance projects, the Congress needs adequate information on the tradeoffs between economic and environmental values.

Book excerpt: The Corps is responsible for dredging sediment from waterways to maintain shipping routes important for commerce. One dredge type, a hopper dredge, performs much of the dredging in ports and harbors, and the Corps uses its own fleet of hopper dredges and contracts. In 2003, GAO examined the Corps' hopper dredging program and made recommendations to improve its management. GAO was asked to review changes to the program. This book examines actions the Corps has taken to address GAO's 2003 recommendations for improving the information needed to manage its hopper dredging program and develop cost estimates for industry contracts; effects since 2003, if any, of the statutory restrictions placed on the use of the Corps' hopper dredges; and key challenges, if any, the Corps faces in managing its hopper dredge fleet.
