N2  - Facilitates dredging methods and processes that will assist in establishing and enforcing realistic standards for the protection of the environment without excessively increasing  the cost of dredging.  Fosters awareness of environmental problems.  Contains new chapter which include beneficial uses for dredged material, the subaquaeceous capping of contaminated sediments, removal of contaminated sediments by dredging, numerical models for predicting the fate of dregded materials, beach replenishment, design and construction of coastal wetlands, and the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers Dredging operations and the environmental research program.  Offers the latest word on modern hydraulic dredging from selecting the right equipment to evaluating environmental impacts, bidding on a particular project, to dredging for commercial navigation
