It is the policy of the State of New Jersey that dredged material be considered a natural resource, and that acceptable beneficial uses of dredged material are encouraged and given priority over other management/disposal alternatives. As such, this manual -- the result of more than two decades of experience with research, development, and implementation of new dredged material management techniques, was produced to educate engineers and dredging professionals responsible for the placement and management of sediments removed from authorized navigation channels, berths, or marinas. Topics investigated include the geo-chemical and geo-technical characteristics of dredged sediment specific to coastal and estuarine waterways of New Jersey and New York, placement and transportation methods, processing and stabilization systems, decontamination methods, and quality control/ assurance protocols. Moreover several successful dredged material projects, including the Jersey Gardens Mall and Bayonne Golf Course are reviewed in detail.
