Effects of a deep sand extraction pit : final report of the PUTMOR measurements at the lowered dump site
General conclusion of the report is that there are no indications that a deep sand extraction pit with a final water depth of 40 meter necessarily leads to unacceptable effects on existing values. Therefore it is expected that deep sand extraction will be an interesting alternative for shallow sand pits with a volume of more than 10 million m3. This conclusion is applicable for the situation at the Netherlands Continental Shelf.
