"With the steady growth in commercial shipping and pleasure cruising on the St. Lawrence River, particularly since the opening of the Seaway, extensive dredging operations have been necessary to maintain the navigational channel and existing harbours accessible to shipping, and to build new ports, marinas, and other marine facilities.
