Lake and Pond Dredging
A Versi-Dredge® removes silt, sediment, and overgrown aquatic vegetation from a city lake in Mexico. The tropical lake had become unusable for recreation or flood control. The aquatic weeds were chopped into 1- to 3-inch pieces by the patented Weedmaster (patent pending) cutterhead attachment and then pumped to shore by the dredge pump. |

A Model 5012 Versi-Dredge® outfitted with the Weedmaster (patent pending) cutterhead attacks a wall of weeds at Lake Macy in Florida. After four months of dredging, the over-grown tussocks that choked the 20-acre body of water are gone, leaving the water cleaner than it has been in decades. The Versi-Dredge® was a wise choice for this project, because it allowed the operator to remove the extensive weed cover and then deepen the lake with the excavator cutterhead. |

Two IMS Versi-Dredges tackle a large lake project in Michigan. Smaller dredges are easy to mobilize and provide redundancy in the dredging process. This is a major advantage of using one large multi-truck transportable dredging. |
