Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Dredging Four Mile Run

While it is not my specialty I have had a small role in developing 2 or 3 dredging plans at my job. My guess is the proper disposal of the dredged material costs just as much as the dredging itself. There are likely pollutants within the dredged material that require special considerations for storage so as to not leach back into the environment - it's only a theory since I have no direct knowledge of this project, but if true it would drive the cost up pretty quickly.

If those yellow circles represent the dredging area, it doesn't look like we are getting very much for our $5 million dollars.
