Interagency approach to beneficial uses of dredged material
1615-1629 Environmental considerations resulted in the development and planned implementation of environmentally beneficial dredged material disposal in connection with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE) plans to widen and deepen the Houston Ship Channel in Galveston Bay, Texas, USA. This ac...
