Dredging

Veolia Environmental Services - Industrial Services uses a manned, floating, diesel powered, horizontal auger dredge platform fitted with a 6 or 8 submersible hydraulic pump. The horizontal dredge transverses across the pond along a cable anchored to each pond bank. Cable guides on the front and rear of the dredge prevent it from veering off course while a variable speed motor (reversible and hydraulically powered) pushes the horizontal auger into the sludge.

The dredge operator maintains constant communication via two-way radio with a shore-based operator (Shoreman) located at the dredge spoils area or sludge collection point. The Shoreman functions as a safety watch for the dredge operator and monitors the dredge line and discharge location(s).
