Baltimore Harbor Dredged Material Containment Sites<br />

Reconnaissance <strong>and</strong> Feasibility Studies<br />

<strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong>’s coastal engineering reconnaissance <strong>and</strong> feasibility studies for Baltimore Harbor dredged material<br />

containment facilities included the evaluation of several sites as potential containment facilities for Baltimore Harbor<br />

dredged material. The final hydrodynamics <strong>and</strong> sedimentation modeling study used <strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong>’s two-dimensional<br />

Upper Chesapeake Bay–Finite Element Model to predict existing conditions <strong>and</strong> with-project hydrodynamics <strong>and</strong><br />

sedimentation.<br />

Subaqueous Dredged Material Site 104 Numerical Modeling &<br />

EIS/Feasibility Study Support<br />

<strong>Moffatt</strong> & <strong>Nichol</strong> provided numerical modeling services as part of an EIS/Feasibility Study for the renewed usage of<br />

the Site 104 Subaqueous Dredged Material Placement Site in the Chesapeake Bay by the USACE, Baltimore District.<br />

The project included the development of a calibrated 2-D, finite-element numerical model of Upper Chesapeake Bay<br />

hydrodynamics.<br />
