Regional Dredging Teams: Local Planning Groups

Regional Dredging Teams (RDTs) actively work to facilitate the establishment of Local Planning Groups (LPGs).  LPGs are established to develop dredged material management plans for local waterways, harbors, estuaries, and watersheds and to assess and resolve local dredged material management issues.  LPGs often develop management plans in coordination with RDTs and other local groups for consideration into overall regional dredged material management.  RDTs also establish direct lines of communication with LPGs to facilitate issue resolution at the appropriate level (RDTs).
