Abstract
This paper focuses on the design and construction of two recent projects in Bremerton, Washington and Ketchikan, Alaska. In the Bremerton project, 57,000 cubic yards of fine-grained sediments were used to improve near-shore habitat and 35,000 cy were placed in an underwater stockpile for use as cap material. Approximately 400,000 cy were placed in a confined aquatic disposal site and were capped by 22,000 tons of sand. In the Ketchikan project, extremely soft, organic sediment was capped with 30,000 tons of sand over an area of approximately 26 acres.
