I'm not really clear on this either. They may just be doing what the can to stop any more new sediment from flowing in. They really didn't describe a plan that would get rid of what's already there...

This is a total shot in the dark, but exposure to oxygen may help break it down faster and allow it to compact into harder bottom.

BTW the LSU Lakes needs to be drained to allow for it to decay is organic layer. I wonder how that study has come along.
