SUMMARY:PIANC WA: Dredging & Beneficial Use of Sediments - 8 September
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we explore the opportunities\, challenges and emerging case studies demonstrating how beneficial use of sediments can deliver environmental\, social and economic benefits while supporting a more circular approach to dredging. \nEvent timing: 5:30pm – doors open for a pre-drink \n6 – 7pm – presentations followed by a panel discussion \n7-9:30pm – networking \nVenue: The Shoe Bar\, Yagan Square\, Perth \nDredging is essential for creating and maintaining our ports\, harbours and waterways. As industries increasingly focus on sustainability\, there is growing recognition that dredged sediment should be viewed as a valuable resource rather than a waste product. Yet despite increasing demand for scarce resources a significant proportion of dredged material continues to be disposed of rather than beneficially reused. \nBook here for this FREE event for PIANC Members  and only $10 for non-members – https://www.trybooking.com/au/event/1635030 \nChair: \n\nCharlie Bicknell (Regional Maritime Executive\, WSP) & Shirley Dawe (Regional Manager WA\, Hydrobiology)\n\nIntroduction \n\nShirley Dawe (Regional Manager WA\, Hydrobiology) – an introduction to our current working groups including WG176 Guide for Applying Working with Nature to Navigation Infrastructure Projects\n\n Speakers: \n\nAlwin van den Bosch (General Manager\, Boskalis Australia) – international examples of sustainable sediment projects\nAdi Fadil (Senior Dredging Engineer\, in2Dredging) – Rock dredging\, from excavation challenges to beneficial reuse\nRichard King (Dredging and Survey Manager\, Pilbara Ports Authority) – Sediment segregation in placement grounds to allow for future reuse\n\nPanel Discussion: \nOur speakers will be joined by Damian Tully and Luke Twomey to discuss barriers to achieving the beneficial use of dredging sediments. \n\nAlwin van den Bosch\,\nRichard King\nDamian Tully (CEO\, Mid West Ports Authority)\nLuke Twomey (CEO\, Western Australian Marine Science Institute)\n\nAttendees will have the opportunity participate in asking questions in this interactive event. \n\nWe would like to thank our event sponsors: Boskalis and WSP. \n
