• Providing improved and diversified aquatic,
  riparian and terrestrial habitats.
• Serving as dredged material disposal sites for
  both navigation channel maintenance and selective
  dredging.
• Reducing wind, and navigation, induced
  re-suspension of sediment and tributary.
• Reducing sedimentation rates in the areas where
  islands are constructed.

39

• Providing more suitable water-based recreational
  sites in Peoria Lakes.
• Providing a side channel away from the navigation
  channel for safe recreational boating.
