Book Description
The Dredged-Material Disposal Management Model, D2M2, is a simulation-optimization model designed to provide information required to answer the following disposal management questions: (1) If a specified long-term operation policy is followed for an existing or proposed dredged-material disposal system, what is the final status of the system, given the initial conditions, system physical and economic characteristics, and dredged-material volume estimates? What is the cost of following the operation policy? Must additional disposal-site capacity be provided? (2) What is the least-costly long-term operation policy for an existing or proposed disposal system, given initial conditions, system physical and economic characteristics, and dredged- material volume estimates? (3) What is the least-costly method to provide the additional volume required? Should expired leases be extended or should new sites be acquired? (4) If new sites are to be acquired, what is the least-costly combination of sites? What is the least-costly sequence for acquiring these sites? and (5) Are alternative material-management alternatives, such as transferring material or resting sites, cost effective?

Pages : 28
Book Description
An ensemble of analytic tools is used to identify capacity expansion alternatives for the Delaware River dredged-material disposal system. Characteristics of the river and riparian area are stored and analyzed with a geographic information system. Site attractiveness maps produced with these data yield an array of potential expansion sites. The least-costly schedule for acquisition of these sites is identified with branch-and-bound enumeration. For the enumeration, the operation cost of alternative expansion plans is evaluated with a network-flow programming model of the disposal system. (Author).

Book Description
This document is intended to serve as a consistent "roadmap" for U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency personnel in evaluating the environmental acceptability of dredged amterial management alternatives. Specifically, its major objectives are to provide: A general technical framwork for evaluating the environmental acceptability of dredged material management, alternatives (open-water disposal, confined (diked) disposal, and beneficial uses). Additional technical guidance to augment present implementation and testing manuals for addressing the environmental acceptability of available management options for the discharge of dredged material in both ope water and confined sites. Enhanced consistency and coordination in USAC/EPA decision making in accordance with Federal environmantl statutes regulating dredged material management.
