Partner with the nation’s longest running processor of dredged material for beneficial reuse.

DREDGED MATERIAL SOLUTIONS

We handle dredged material in a way that benefits everyone.

Clean Earth partners with you to provide innovative recycling programs for environmentally impacted dredged material.

As one of the nation’s longest running processors of dredged material, we are dedicated to providing beneficial reuse solutions for material that threatens our nation’s waterways.

When you dredge, you need a partner who can take care of disposal with an efficient approach that benefits your business and the world around us. Clean Earth is here to meet that need while exceeding your expectations.

Together, we build a sustainable future.

At Clean Earth, we don’t pause until every yard of sediment, every bucket of debris, and every dredged material is recycled. Through our broad range of services and solutions, we process thousands of cubic yards of dredged material every day, making every effort to preserve our environment for generations to come. We are hands-on. We are dedicated.

We are diligent. And the result? A cleaner earth where we are beneficially reusing waste that would otherwise go into landfills. When we partner with you, we work together to build a better future for our people, partners, and planet.

“We’re able to help you with the permitting.

We’re able to help do project management.

And we’re able to find a home for that sediment after you’ve generated it.”

KRISTIN FOLDES Project Manager, Compliance

We lead the industry with comprehensive, successful, and sustainable solutions for all of your disposal and recycling needs.

REAL-WORLD SOLUTIONS FOR DREDGED MATERIAL Our nation’s maritime and environmental future depends on this.

Open waterways are absolutely essential to an active, thriving national economy. To keep our ports open for shipping, there is no choice but to clear out aggregated, accumulated sediment at the bottom of channels. Dredging creates the fifty-foot-deep clearance required for large, ocean-going shipping vessels. But how we handle that dredged material makes all the difference. To protect our environment, it’s more important than ever to avoid traditional landfill disposal and choose beneficial reuse solutions.

Start with dredged material.

End with structural fill that’s fit for beneficial reuse.

As we process and stabilize dredged material, we create engineered structural and nonstructural fill material. Our processing varies to meet a multitude of specifications for upland beneficial reuse. Once we stabilize your material, we connect you to real-world markets for recycling and beneficial reuse. We have successfully implemented over sixteen different types of reuse applications. These include mine reclamation, landfill closure, infrastructure improvement, brownfield redevelopment projects, and golf course contouring.

“If you don’t dredge and maintain the federal shipping channels and the local berths, commerce would stop.”

JOHN HUHN Operations Manager

STABILIZING DREDGED MATERIAL We bring our expertise to every solution we provide.

When we process dredged material, we begin by decanting excess water off of the dredged sediments. The sediment is a location-specific mixture of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter. Our processing services include dewatering, stabilization, screening, and debris removal for both clean and contaminated non-hazardous dredged material. Ultimately, we blend the dredged material with our proprietary reagent admixture for stabilization and solidification to create an engineered structural fill.

Our capacity for processing dredged material is immense.

The types of dredged material our facilities handle include: • Marine Debris • Marine Sediment • Fresh Water Sediment • Pier Demolition Debris

• Non-Hazardous Dredged Material • Clean & Contaminated Dredged Material

WE’RE IN THE BUSINESS OF BENEFICIAL REUSE. When it comes to reuse, we are relentless and resourceful.

We diligently identify and track the properties of dredged materials, so that whenever possible, we can safely combine them into material fit for beneficial reuse. We keep every finger on the pulse of market demand and conduct ongoing research on local sources of waste generation. This deep awareness gives us the ability to identify potential target markets for direct reuse of your dredged materials. We have vast experience developing treatment processes, so that we can dispose of or transform and render your materials suitable for recycling uses.

BENEFICIAL REUSES FOR PROCESSED DREDGED MATERIAL • Geotechnical improvement of property • Brownfield redevelopment, remediation, and capping • Landfill closures for redevelopment of pad sites or recreation

We find the market to match your material.

In many cases, we partner with developers and land owners who have a large need for fill materials. Adding beneficial reuse materials into the mix can help them attain site permits. And when they have projects that require large quantities of our products and materials over a multi-year period, they put necessary engineering and institutional controls in place.

Reuse benefits your profits and the planet.

When we identify reuse opportunities, we are creating advantageous markets for our customers. Not only are we meeting your disposal needs with a reliable and economical solution. But we’re also keeping the waste out of landfills with a greener, more sustainable, and environmentally conscious approach.

We are key to a sustainable future.

With constant progress, Clean Earth has become instrumental in widespread reclamation efforts.

We have established brownfield sites and safely addressed abandoned mine lands. And we have provided necessary materials to redevelop closed landfills into golf courses, public parks, and commercial sites.

We are Clean Earth.
