Case story
Queen’s Lake
USA, Virginia
A build-up of organics, sediments, very fine silt and clay created a major navigational problem for members of the Queens Lake Marina Association, in York County, VA. A contract was issued to dredge and dewater sediments in the boat slips and outside the enclosed slip area.

Site preparation, permitting, transportation, and disposal were handled by the Marina Association. The filling and consolidation phase took place over a two-week period. Dredging/pumping was approximately 1,500 gpm at an average feed solids concentration of 6% - 8%.
