Frequently Asked Questions — East Syracuse, NY
How far do you travel for dredging work, and why does mobilisation sometimes look like a big separate charge?
Dredging is quoted as a crew and equipment spread day rate, plus a separate mobilisation charge to move equipment, crew, and support vessels to your site. The mobilisation line covers transport, setup, and sometimes sea trucks or cranes, so a job farther from our East Syracuse base will naturally carry a higher mobilisation charge. That line is often the main reason two seemingly identical bids look far apart, so ask for it itemized.
When during the year can dredging happen, and who gets the permits?
Scheduling depends on environmental windows (fish migration, shellfish closures), marina traffic, and weather, so many dredging projects are seasonal. The contractor typically advises on permits but the responsibility for USACE, state, and local permits varies by state and by whether dredged material goes to an approved site. We can help you identify the permits, but you should expect the timeline to be driven by the permit approval date, not the calendar.
How is dredging priced? Is it per cubic yard or a flat fee?
Most commercial dredging is quoted as a crew/spread day rate, plus mobilisation, and sometimes an additional rate per cubic yard removed depending on the equipment and disposal method. Small jobs are often day-rate dominated, while larger jobs may be priced per cubic yard. Always request a line-item quote so you can see the day rate, mobilisation, and any disposal or survey charges separately.
What kind of reporting or documentation will I get after the dredge is done?
Standard deliverables include pre- and post-dredge bathymetric surveys, quantity logs, disposal receipts, and sometimes underwater video of the bottom. For bridge or waterfront structures, reports may reference applicable standards like OSHA 29 CFR 1910 Subpart T for dive safety or, for bridge inspections, state and NBIS requirements. Ask up front exactly which survey format and documentation you want, since that affects the price.
