Zulu is adept at working in sensiƟ ve marine environments and we take great care to protect the waterways, wetlands, habitats, and wildlife at project sites and surrounding areas. We have successfully completed waterway service projects in waterways throughout Florida, Georgia, South and North Carolina, ranging in size from 3000 linear feet to over 70 miles. We have never defaulted on a project or failed to complete when promised. In addiƟ on, while conducƟ ng any service project, we make note of any other waterway health issues, such as excessive aquaƟ c vegetaƟ on growth, beaver dam blockages, signiﬁ cant debris build-up, sedimentaƟ on, bank erosion, and any other issues that might be cause for future concern, and provide this informaƟ on to the client. We understand the needs and complicaƟ ons related to waterway health. We are equipped and have the personnel to complete any and all work to the Client’s complete saƟ sfacƟ on. We look forward to the opportunity to assist in any waterway services you might require. DREDGING & SEDIMENT REMOVAL SUMMARY Zulu’s dredging division has been constructed with experƟ se and specialized equipment to provide a best-case scenario opƟ on to the many diff erent means, methods and facets of the dredging industry. Our capabiliƟ es cover a vast range of soluƟ ons both in mechanical and hydraulic dredging methods. Hydraulic Dredging Our ﬂ eet of hydraulic dredging systems include opƟ ons ranging from 4-inch to 12-inch with most customizable for the speciﬁ c needs of the projects including: ▪An amphibious 4-inch auger dredge able to access areas typical dredges or long-reach dredges can’t access. ▪MulƟ ple auger dredges from 6 to 8 inches with producƟ on capabiliƟ es up to 100 CY per hour, ideal for lagoons, channel maintenance and lined ponds. ▪MulƟ ple submersible systems from 6 to 12 inches with Toyo type pumps able to achieve very high percent solids that can be mounted on very maneuverable plaƞ orms. In place of convenƟ onal sucƟ on dredges, these systems can reach higher producƟ on rates in hard to maneuver places such as marinas, as well as in deeper water up to 100 feet, with no sucƟ on restricƟ ons. Mechanical Dredging Our mechanical dredging capabiliƟ es uƟ lize amphibious excavators, which are ideal for places lacking access via water. In addiƟ on, our ﬂ eet of secƟ onal barges allows us to mobilize our excavators or clamshell for speciﬁ c projects. 10 166 DREDGING & SEDIMENT REMOVAL EXPERIENCE & REFERENCES CEPP EAA CANAL CONVEYANCE (SUBCONTRACTED FROM RYAN SOUTHERN) April – October 2025 Zulu worked in conjuncƟ on with other contractors to dredge and widen the canal to improve conveyance and water capacity for Lake Okechobee discharge.
