Pier 300 Extension Using Dredged Materials from the Main Channel, Port of Los Angeles

As part of the development program at the Port of Los Angeles (POLA), channel and basin dredging, and berth improvements are planned. Beneficial use of the dredge spoils is planned for use in construction of the 16.2-hectare (40-acre) Pier 300 extension terminal, among other projects. This paper discusses data management and material characterization of the Channel Deepening, as well as engineering analyses to the design and construction of the Pier 300 extension terminal.
