Environmental remediation can be beneficial to both local recreationist and wildlife. The natural flow of material and seasonal storm surges can choke off channels that feed freshwater to inland wetlands or ponds. Dredging these channels allows water to circulate in and out of these inland sites; bringing in nutrients and flushing out waste.
Smaller Ellicott® dredges are particularly effective in these projects. Both the 300SL Swinging Dragon® and 460SL Swinging Dragon® dredges are ideal in these narrow channels. Their cutter head design allows for successful performance in all types of material. |
