  •  The shoreman will work with the operator to quantify production volumes and monitor this through the completion of the project. These quantifications will be reported to Management in order to keep track of the projects and submit to the customer for billing. This will also be used by Management to keep a timeline and make forecasting predictions for the completion of the project. Once the project is believed to be complete, the shoreman will work with the dredge operator, survey team, management, and customers engineering representatives to make sure that all terms have been fulfilled and the customer is satisfied what the quality of the dredge cut and volume of material that has been excavated/dredged.
