Texas Sediment Survey for Dredge Planning

Pond Medics created a bathymetry and a sediment volume study for a property owners association in Texas. The lake was mapped to understand current water depths and to calculate the amount of accumulated sediment.  This is essential information to plan and help the POA manage the future dredging project.

Power Station Predredge Survey for Ash Pond Dredging Project

The Mapping Network team performed a hydrographic predredge survey on a large ash reservoir for a power station in Kansas.   The purpose was to quantify and locate ash accumulation that needed to be dredged per EPA regulations.   By comparing the original bottoms of the ponds with the current bottom depths, a computer model calculated the location and amount of material.  The power company and dredge contractor will use this information to assist in validating that all the material has been removed.
