The Kansas City District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, in partnership with the Kansas Water Office, is pleased to announce the start of the first demonstration period for the innovative Water Injection Dredging project at Tuttle Creek Lake. The demonstration will take place from September 17 to 27, 2025, providing a real-world assessment of Water Injection Dredging's effectiveness for sediment management within inland reservoirs. This pioneering project aims to evaluate Water Injection Dredging (WID) and downstream discharge of sediment as a potential alternative to traditional mechanical dredging with offsite sediment disposal. WID uses a controlled injection of water, under pressure, to resuspend sediment from the reservoir bed and create a density current, allowing it to be carried downstream by gravity and the natural current.
