This Decree provides procedures and technical standards for the disposal at sea of excavated materials from the seabed, beach nourishment and filling in confined disposal facilities. Article 1 lists operations outside the scope of the regulation for which no authorization is required, including: the movement of dredged material within a port and the movement of materials linked to the disposal of material at sea pursuant to article 109 of the Code on the Environment; the restoration of shorelines, meaning activities that take place within the same site according to a seasonal cycle (or after a storm) and consist of levelling surfaces by the shedding and redistribution of accumulated sediment that require the movement of less than 20 cubic metres of sediment per linear metre of beach; and the movement of sediments within a site linked to the disposal at sea of inert materials, inorganic geological material or artefacts, where environmentally compatible.
