  • Navigation Dredging – Improving Outcomes Through Partnerships and Beneficial Use of Dredged Materials
    NAVIGATION DREDGING – IMPROVING OUTCOMES THROUGH PARTNERSHIPS AND BENEFICIAL USE OF DREDGED MATERIALS. Paul Moses and Andrew Ling - Land and Property Management Authority [LPMA] ABSTRACT: The Land and Property Management Authority (LPMA) is the lead agency for the coordination of navigation dredging in NSW waterways and works in partnership with the private sector, local and State government and community to achieve balanced social, environmental and economic outcomes. Entrances to the State’s coastal harbours, estuaries and lakes are highly prone to shoaling from marine sand. Shoaling can seriously affect navigation and cause other detrimental impacts which can disadvantage regional coastal communities that rely on maritime-related enterprises, tourism and recreation. Since announcing its dredging strategy in 2007, LPMA has been fostering partnerships for dredging in regional coastal waterways through the Minor Ports, River Entrances and Waterways Programs. Under these programs, dredging projects compete for the limited funds available from NSW Treasury on a state-wide basis. Over the last couple of years there has been a shift in how dredge material is valued. Campaigns to improve navigation at Coffs Harbour, Terranora Inlet and Port Macquarie have used dredge material to good effect for improved environmental and social outcomes. More recently, dredging campaigns in Swansea Channel and the Myall River have combined commercial use of dredged material with contributions from State and local government to help offset the cost of dredging. This collaborative approach has enabled a greater volume of material to be dredged and has provided sand for foreshore renourishment works and for other local projects. In this paper we demonstrate how these recent partnerships have the potential to achieve better environmental, social and economic outcomes than the more traditional approach (i.e.
