These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. The contaminated material is then capped in most instances with clean sediment to physically separate it from the overlying.

The lateral confinement may be provided by a bottom depression or by subaqueous berms. This is a form of dredged material disposal that involves controlled placement of dredged material into a subaqueous site with some form of lateral confinement. Other terms used for CDFs that appear in the literature include “confined disposal area,” “confined disposal site,” and “dredged material containment area.” Confined aquatic disposal (CAD): Confined disposal facility (CDF):Īn engineered structure for containment of dredged material consisting of dikes or other structures that enclose a disposal area above any adjacent water surface, isolating the dredged material from adjacent waters during placement. Placement or use of dredged material as resource materials in productive ways, which provide environmental, economic, or social benefits.
