Dear IDR readers, Thank you for participating in our first online survey. In what we hope will be the first of many, this survey asks industry suppliers about business so far this year. The results of this survey will help gauge the overall health of the dredging industry this year, compared to last year and looking forward to 2014. All responses are completely anonymous. Again, please answer these questions only if you are one of the following: aggregate producer dredge miner – ferrous and non-ferrous hydrographic surveyor dredging equipment and components manufacturer dredging equipment or components representative electronics manufacturer electronics representative dredging equipment broker electronics equipment installer dredging equipment installer Dredge project owners (municipality, port, marina, etc.) and dredging contractors, please look for other surveys geared toward your sector of the industry in the future. Thank you again for your time and participation. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Editor Anna Townshend at atownshend@dredgemag.com or 314-241-7355.
