Abstract:Sedimentation of the navigation channel and ports on the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway has averaged over 800,000 yd3 per year since completion of the Waterway. The standard solution for the past 17 years has been to dredge the accumulated sediment and place it in upland confined disposal sites. That solution has become less effective as dredging costs have risen and dredging contracts have become more difficult to obtain.
