Compensation channel Hahnöfer Nebenelbe

Measure





In order to build the channel 1.3 mill m³ sediment were dredged in an area of 68 ha. The channel was approximately 125 m wide with a depth of 2.3 m below mean low spring tide. In the ‘Mühlenberger Loch’ the channel had to be excavated through the entire area (Fig. 1). In the area of the ‘Hahnöfer Nebenelbe’ the planned depth was almost existent. The dredging was finished in June 2003. The total cost of the measure accounted for 5,2 mill €.
