The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Los Angeles District oversaw the dredge project and approved use of the IMS Dredger Model 7012 HP Versi-Dredge® for the work.

This year's maintenance dredging cycle involved a pilot program to separate contaminants from the dredged material, generating reusable sand to replenish nearby beaches.

An IMS Dredge Model 5012 LP Versi-Dredge® w/ Weedmaster Cutterhead and Weed Rake cut through large mats of water hyacinths at a huge lake in Mexico. The Weed Rake provides the Weed Master Cutterhead with a constant feed of hyacinths to maximize production. The Weedmaster cuts the vegetation into 3-5 inch pieces and then pumps them up to 1 kilometer or more away.

The Weedmaster allows the dredge to be converted into a high production weed harvester system. The dredge can continually cut and pump vegetation and never stop to unload unlike inefficient conveyor type harvesters that require a hopper, transport barges, and shore conveyors to unload.

An IMS Model 5012 LP Versi-Dredge® w/ Weedmaster Cutterhead & Broadcaster Discharge Attachment broadcasts chopped cattails up to 75 feet away.  The system never has to stop to unload like a conveyor harvester and it can control where the discharge is sprayed unlike shredding systems that just spew material dangerously in every direction

IMS Dredger Model 5012 LP Versi-Dredge® w/ Weedmaster Cutterhead & Broadcaster Discharge Attachment

An IMS Model 5012 LP Versi-Dredge® w/ Weedmaster Cutterhead & Broadcaster Discharge Attachment cuts down and digests very tall cattails and reeds.  Note that the Weedmaster can cut all the way down to the root mass where a conveyor harvester can only go down to a limited depth and cut only part of the stem off.  Using the Weedmaster slows down and in many cases eliminates the regrowth of vegetation since the root mass can be removed.
