New Corps Website Focuses Research on Thin-Layer Placement of Dredged Material

摘要

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineer's Dredging Operations Technical Support (DOTS) Program launched a new website dedicated to the practice of thin-layer placement of dredged material. The website officially launched during a webinar on August 31, and it will consolidate information and resources on thin-layer placement for use across the dredging industry. "The ultimate goal of the Thin-Layer Placement of Dredged Material website is to consolidate, as a living resource, all information and data available from projects and literature relevant to thin-layer placement," said Cynthia Banks, DOTS program manager. The Corps said the DOTS Program provides direct environmental and engineering technical support to the Corps' navigation and dredging missions.
