At SLAM (Sediment Lakes Aquatic Management), our mission is clear: to restore and protect the health of our lakes, canals, and waterways through expert hydraulic dredging and silt removal — done the right way.
Our team is dedicated to enhancing water quality, promoting biodiversity, and ensuring safe navigation for communities, all while staying true to our core values of safety, sustainability, prevention, and innovation.
By employing innovative techniques and state-of-the-art equipment, combined with rigorous environmental assessments and strict adherence to regulatory standards, we ensure a balanced approach that supports both essential infrastructure development and the preservation of our natural ecosystems.
Our founder, Mike, brings a unique passion and personal touch to SLAM.
Growing up on a lake, Mike witnessed firsthand the dramatic impact that sediment buildup and flooding can have on a community.
His home was once at risk of being underwater, yet during floods, it stood as the only safe haven in the neighborhood — a testament to his resilience and forward thinking approach. With the same determination that drove him in his years as a firefighter, Mike learned the importance of quick action, precision, and community support.
