Choptank River Dredged Material Placement Study. Main Report. Volume I

摘要

The Choptank River Dredged Material Placement Study assessed the dredging needs for Maryland's Eastern Shore counties of Talbot and Dorchester for the 10-year period 1980-1990. Nineteen Federal and Twenty-three State/County dredging projects were identified and historically examined with regard to intervals between maintenance dredging operations, next projected maintenance operation and availability of a dredged material placement (DMP) site. A DMP plan was developed for six projects in Dorchester County and two projects in Talbot County. Each selected project had a high probability of being accomplished within the 10-year period and did not have an approved or potentially suitable DMP site associated with it.
