The highlight of 2013 was the memorable and very
successful WODCON XX that we organised for the
worldwide dredging community. Attended by 474
delegates from 31 countries, the congress featured
95 peer-reviewed technical presentations. These
presentations, along with the exhibition and the

technical visits, were testament to the innovation

and creativity of the dredging sector. The social
and partner programmes were of the highest quality. Our host city, Brussels, the congress centre and
the venues for the social functions were all exemplary. We were delighted by the enthusiastic feedback

so the Forum was designed to engage delegates and maximise the sharing of knowledge.The case-led
workshop in which delegates worked in small groups proved a real hit. This was an experiment and a
most successful one. We will certainly repeat the format in the future.

of the offshore industries with dredging companies and the energy industry recognising the key role
this technology can play. Dredging has long been used in the oil and gas industry with specialised

the role of dredging for gravity based foundations for offshore wind farms. The seminar brought

The paper begins with some background on why underwater sound is an important issue and goes on
to describe the risk-based approach. The chapters that follow cover impacts of sound on aquatic life,
the measurement of sound and the presentation of knowledge on dredging-related sound sources.
Finally, it provides recommendations on managing and mitigating potential risks from dredgingrelated sound impacts in offshore and coastal areas, estuaries and inland waters.

probably more relevant for physiological
effects such as TTS and PTS (Southall
et al. 2007).
Standardisation of underwater
acoustic terminology and
measurements
To facilitate comparison of results of
different studies, it is very important to use a
standard terminology in underwater
acoustic research. In 2010, in the
Netherlands, Germany and the United
Kingdom, collaborative projects were set up
to define and agree upon the terminology of
underwater sound. The results of this
collaboration are described in TNO 2011.
Technical Committee 43 on ‘Acoustics’ of
the International Organisation for
Standardisation (ISO) installed
subcommittee SC3 on ‘Underwater Sound’
in June 2012. The TC43 SC3 Working Group
2 will use TNO 2011 as a basis for the
development of a new ISO standard for
underwater acoustic terminology.
There are also no specific national or
international standards for measuring the
radiated sound of dredgers, nor of other ships
operating in shallow water.
The American National Standards
Institute’s ANSI-ASA S12.64/2009-Part 1
Report for measuring radiated sound of
(transiting) ships in deep water formed the
basis for the development of the
international ISO Publically Available
Specification 17208-1:2012 ‘Acoustics –
Quantities and procedures for description
and measurement of underwater sound from
ships – Part 1: General requirements for
June 2013
measurements in deep water’. ISO working
groups TC43 SC3 Working Group 1 and TC8
SC2 Joint Working Group 1 are developing
international measurement standards for
ships in deep water. These groups have
expressed the intention to address shipradiated sound measurements in shallow
water as a next step.
How can the spatial distribution of
underwater sound be determined?
Underwater sound distribution depends on
the sources that generate sound and on the
propagation of sound in the environment.
Because of practical limitations, it is not
realistic to get a global overview of this
distribution from measurements alone.
Underwater acoustic models, in
combination with the relevant measurement
data, can provide a pragmatic approach for
the determination of the underwater sound
distribution. Various types of shallow water
propagation modelling techniques are
available (Wang et al. 2013), all varying in
the level of detail modelled and hence in the
requirements for input data and in the
resulting accuracy of the calculations.
These sound propagation models describe
the sound source as an ‘acoustic monopole’,
characterisd by an underwater acoustic
‘Source Level’ spectrum (TNO 2011). The
received sound pressure level at positions in
the environment is the difference between
this monopole Source Level and the calculated
Propagation Loss between source and receiver
positions. The depth below the water surface
of this assumed monopole is an important
parameter, because it influences the radiated
sound power and propagation loss for near
surface sources at lower frequencies.
Hence, characterising the sound
distribution of dredging activities requires
measurement data of dredgers’ radiated
sound and a shallow water sound
propagation model. Neither the
measurement method for dredging sound,
nor the propagation models are currently
standardised.
Recent studies in the Netherlands (de Jong
et al. 2010) and the UK (Robinson et al. 2011,
Wang et al. 2013) have advocated the use of a
source-image type of propagation model
(Urick 1983) in combination with radiated
sound measurements at various distances
from the dredger. Care should be taken in
the selection of an appropriate propagation
model and assurance should be given that
the model’s details are reported fully.
Measuring the underwater radiated
sound of dredgers
Until measurement standards become
available, the approach followed in recent
studies in the Netherlands (de Jong et al. 2010)
and the UK (Robinson et al. 2011, Wang et al.
2013) can provide guidance for measuring the
radiated sound of dredgers. These approaches
will be proposed for the future international
standard development, which are urgently
required to arrive at an internationally
accepted protocol for risk assessment.
Underwater radiated sound measurements
of dredgers require the use of hydrophones,
deployed from a quiet vessel or from a buoy, or
mounted on the seabed at a minimal distance
of about one ship length from the dredger.
Data from acoustic measurements at a fixed
position while the dredger passes the
hydrophones, or at a number of measurement
positions at various distances from a
stationary dredger, are required to obtain an
assessment of the source level of the dredger.
Positions of the hydrophones relative to
the dredger need to be monitored, e.g. by
means of GPS. Figure 3 provides an example
of measurements involved in monitoring
both a moving and a stationary dredger.
These arrangements can be adapted to other
types of dredgers.

we know about dredging sound?

and maritime construction works is based on the sound technical
DQG VFLHQWL¿F NQRZOHGJH WDNHV DFFRXQW RI EHVW SUDFWLFH DQG LV
ultimately workable.
Before a permit for placement of dredged mater ial at sea can be
issued, an assessment must be conducted that includes evaluation
of alternatives to ocean placement and characterisation of the
dredged material in terms of physical, chemical and potential
biological toxicity. The Guidelines require that the characteristics
of the dredged material be compared to an action list to determine
acceptability for open water placement in the ocean, which is
followed by careful considerations of placement site characteristics
and an assessment of the potential effects of placement at that site.
A permit is only to be issued if any effects are below acceptable
thresholds. The Guidelines specify that monitoring programmes
should be put in place to ensure that permit conditions and
predictions of acceptable impacts are on target.

that dredged material is treated as a special case and has been
instrumental in changing the image of dredged material,
recognising that it consists mainly of natural sediments and
only a small proportion of the total volume dredged annually
is contaminated. As a result, what was previously described as
dredged ‘spoil’ is now known as dredged ‘material’ - a term now
embedded in the conventions.
