The objective of this presentation is to outline the challenges of implementing a dredging and stabilization project in a remote and sensitive setting, the solutions, and the considerations agreed upon for the project to proceed.
Dennis Burns, CIMA+
The objective of this presentation is to share the experience of a Canadian engineering firm who supported its Canadian client expand its business in the US by building a network of marine infrastructure in areas such as the East River in the Bronx where such a project had not been done since the 1960's. The presentation will focus not only on the technical/engineering hurdles but also on the human and community relationships that ultimately made this project and subsequent projects a success.
