What we really need is a system of devices or infrastructure that keeps the sediment suspended for the whole river until it gets to where we need it. Then divert. Even just an increase of say 20% would be huge.


Or in all those areas upstream that are silted in where they are constantly dredging what if they put that dredge material in a barge and ship it down River and build land with it


There is current discussions ongoing about this exact thing.

Good. Hopefully the two agencies can get it going. It just seems so elementary

CPRA: we need more sediment

USACE: what to do with all this sediment?
