On August 03, 2018, the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam issued Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BGTVT, which specifies the process of dredging of marine works.
Specifically, according to Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BGTVT of the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam, the process of dredging of marine works is carried out as follows:
Dredging by using submarine grab dredge:
- Preparation of tools, equipment and signal buoys;
- Positioning of the construction center point and determination of excavation scope;
- Movement of construction equipment and machinery within the construction site;
- Maintenance of water transport safety within the construction site;
- Grab dredging and loading of dredged materials aboard the barge (transporting dredged materials for disposal is not included in these norms).
Transportation of dredged materials by using self-propelled barges:
- The barge carries dredged mud and soil to the dumping site in accordance with regulations in force;
- The barge drains dredged mud and soil;
- The barge turns around to the position of the dredging ship.
Notably, the classification of dredged mud and soil, and guidelines for application of these norms under particular construction conditions, shall follow instructions given in equivalent norms for dredging of marine works which are available in the system of norms for construction cost estimates, issued by the Ministry of Construction.
More details can be found in Circular No. 44/2018/TT-BGTVT of the Ministry of Transport of Vietnam, which takes effect from October 01, 2018.
