The beneficial re-use of dredged material

In this fact sheet the focus is on working-with-nature solutions for the beneficial re-use of dredged material. A working-with-nature solution for the beneficial reuse of sediment is a solution whereby the sediment or dredged material is used locally, preferable in the system, and use is made of natural processes to distribute the sediment (tides, waves etc.) or to trap additional sediment (reed, oysters etc).
