Sediment Pond Dredging – WA
UAT delivered a dredging solution for an overflowing sediment pond at a Western Australian mining operation, restoring storage capacity and improving water management without interrupting site operations.
Project Overview
Location: Western Australia
Industry: Mining
Asset: Sediment Pond
A modular dredging system was fitted with high pressure jetting and deployed in a plastic lined pond.
Scope
- Sediment removal from overflowing plastic lined pond
- Management of accumulated fines and settled solids
- Agitation required to break up shallow sediments
- Operation within active site conditions
- Controlled dredging approach suited to site constraints
Outcome
- High pressure jetting bar provided good agitation
- Progressive dredging restored effective storage capacity
- Reduced overflow risk during peak inflows
- Improved pond performance and water management
- Maintained continuous operation during works
