all the erosion took place from dredging the ship channel.
But that is only one small area. We need more. The guy who gave the presentation
said they are wanting more place to pump sediment, but some land owners won't let
them. It is a win win situation if everyone jumps on that band wagon.
Pumping sediment back from where it came from is a good idea.
Yeah but that land is pretty much useless after they pump dridge into it, thats why nobody wants it on their land.
