FROM DREDGED MATERIAL MANAGEMENT TO SEDIMENT MANAGEMENT

摘要

Rotterdam Municipal Authority wishes to further improve the quality of dredged material in the port through a new impetus to the Rhine Research Project, known as POR II. Key concepts in this new action plan are: 1. from dredged material management to integrated sediment management; 2. harmonisation of water and sediment policy in the Rhine basin and North Sea; 3. emission control continues to play an important role, with a shift from point to diffuse sources.
