NAVIGATION CHANNEL DREDGING
The invention relates to a dredging method for dredging a navigation channel for guaranteeing a nautical depth of a navigation channel. The method comprises performing agitation for mobilizing sediment and displacing the mobilized sediment to a collector which is embedded in the bottom of the navigation channel, the collector being a trench in the navigation channel wherein the trench has, when not being filled with sediment, a bottom level positioned substantially deeper than the nautical depth of the navigation channel. The method also comprises, in a step different from said performing agitation dredging, after solidification of the sediment collected in the collector, removing the solidified sediment from the collector so that the collector again has a bottom level positioned substantially deeper than the nautical depth of the navigation channel.
