REMEMBER

Dredging is a vital part of operating a port as it is needed to maintain the depth in channels, berths and harbours to allow ships efficient and safe passage.

Maintenance dredging of marinas involves the removal of sediments naturally transported by waves or currents, into deeper channels or berths.

Dredging of channels relocates the sand to where it is needed most, improving the water clarity of the channel or marina.
