Coordination of Contaminated Sediment Strategy
Port areas around the UK are being expanded to deal with ever increasing maritime trade. In order to maximise the economic advantages this presents, dredging of seabed sediments is being undertaken to provide safe operational navigable depths. The historical and contemporary industrial legacy has, however, created zones of contaminated sediments, which need to be managed.
