- SILT REMOVAL SERVICES
When organic material (algae, weeds) and plant leaves accumulate along the bottom of waterbodies, it often becomes necessary to remove the formation. That is what we do with our silt removal services. Sometimes there are industrial reasons for removing silt, but it is also important for the health of lakes, ponds and rivers and the good things that live in the water.
Absent prompt action, silt can also impact water depth, increase flood risks and create foul odors due to decomposition. It can also clog intake pipes and irrigation systems while posing a real threat to fish and other wildlife. Our pond cleaning services can help avoid these issues.
Using pumps and other resources, American Underwater Services can remove silt from ponds, lakes or other bodies of water. We are also committed to handling projects efficiently, completely and with a keen awareness of environmental impact. We handle the final removal of silt, including the use of on-site solutions that avert the need for potentially expensive off-site removal. We begin any project with a thorough survey that analyzes your situation and the solutions that fit it best.

All I can think of is Delta P watching this lol.
When it’s got ya…it’s got ya.
I was curious what the plan for recovering an injured/unconscious diver was besides climbing down the intake screens.
Saw the video… had the same thought.
The crab video always gets me.
We have a spotter and the ability to tether them.
with all these strange messurments i still wonder why americans still use secound minutes hours and days, why didnt toke it as long as 2323 wingeldingel
There is a portion of men, and yes it is usually men, that get up every day and do real work and these guys are part of that relatively elite group.
as a recreational diver, this is a nightmare scenario for me... Intake... nope nope nope
Gets so muddy feeling around is it hard is it soft...no its a snapping turtle
I bet his dive helmet is heavy 😮
Looks like a cool job, maybe industries should have high school recruiters like the military does.
Problem is, most kids today don't want to actually work.. Especially not work that requires effort levels like these jobs do..
That's good looking set up and diving done safely. Really cool video.
Glad you enjoyed it
This video was uploaded two years ago and only has 248 likes?? What a shame! I gave it a like to bring it up to 249! Thank you for keeping our nations infrastructure operating!
Thank you so much for that inspiring comment. I’ll pass it on to the boys.
Nice if you could suck up some gold every now and then 😉
no way would i do that ill stay in Alaska
It would be interesting to see the LOTO procedure and ECP for this job. I don't suspect these guys would have any part of it other than verification and placing their personal locks on the gang box, but that stuff fascinates me.
Good thing we have confident divers like these guys. I'd do anything to not get in that water next to massive intakes and all that machinery.
So long as it's all been planned and prepped properly... There is no hazard from the machinery/intakes... Just wildlife and any "normal" diving hazards..
That is amazing that there are guys out there doing this jobs. Awesome work guys. STAY SAFE!!!
I’ll pass it onto the boys. Thank you very much.
Didn't Doug Funny do a report on silt years ago
What’s the plan for recovering an injured/unconscious diver? No ladder. No man-rated basket and tugger.
That’s a good question. We touch on this subject in a few videos. We may have to create one just for this subject
This was a Discovery Channel quality video for sure
Thank you! we are pitching
As soon as he said "snakes" I would have started to climb up and out of there!!
Yep our divers can’t see half the time so we’re feeling around if it moves don’t touch it. We get bumped all the time
