The aim of this project was to review the contemporary practice of estimating the primary source term contributions (in the context of Environmental Impact Assessment) for the two types of hydraulic dredgers that are most commonly employed in major dredging projects in Australia, i.e. trailing suction hopper dredgers (TSHD) and cutter suction dredgers (CSD). The estimation of dredge plume source terms associated with material placement (at ‘dumping grounds’) was out of scope.
