The James River, Virginia, is a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay polluted with the toxic pesticide Kepone. The Norfolk District, Corps of Engineers, will conduct a dredging demonstration project as part of the maintenance of the James River Channel. The goals of the demonstration are to achieve containment of a layer of polluted sediment; to minimize resuspension of pollution at the dredge head; and to remove the sediment at in situ density. In order to achieve these goals, a dustpan suction head will be specially adapted and fitted on a typical hydraulic pipeline dredge. The dredge will be operated in the dustpan mode using a dredging method designed to obtain precise positioning of the suction head within the specified layer of polluted sediment.

The James River is a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay polluted with the toxic pesticide Kepone. The Norfolk District of the Corps of Engineers accomplished maintenance dredging operations within the polluted portion of the James River channel during fiscal year 1982. As part of the channel maintenance, the District conducted a demonstration of a dredging method designed to contain and remove a polluted layer of sediment with a minimum of resuspension. The method involved modifying and fitting an existing dustpan suction head to a contractor's cutterhead dredge. The dredge was then operated using an anchoring and maneuvering wire arrangement that enabled precise positioning of the suction head within the specified layer of polluted sediment. Monitoring of operating parameters onboard the dredge, of resuspension at the suction head, and of water quality around the dredge and disposal area was accomplished with appropriate equipment. The dredge was also operated in the conventional cutterhead configuration for comparison with the dustpan arrangement.
