Do you manage the landscaping for a property with a pond that needs help? Are you wondering if it needs to be dredged and what on earth to do about it? This session will give you answers! Whether we are talking about a small retention pond or a large natural lake, decades of sediment accumulation eventually dictates the need for dredging. We will discuss how to know when it’s actually time to dredge and then consider the different methods available for removing sediment from a waterbody. Innovative options for reusing the dredge material onsite to keep down costs will be explored. Be the hero by helping your client revitalize their degraded waterbody and turn an eyesore into an amenity they will love!
