Abstract
A system for reducing contaminants in body of water is shown and described. The system has a first land mass located within a body of water. A sediment trap, located on the floor of the body of water, is configured to collect sediment. Enclosed within the first land mass is a tussock mass area, surrounding a central area, and configured for collecting sediment and building a second land mass. The central area of the system is configured for removing contaminants from sediment. Sediment is moved from the sediment trap to the central area by a first ingress conduit and a pumping system. Filtered water migrates from the central area to outside the first land mass via an egress conduit; contaminated sediment is sequestered in the central area enclosed by the tussock mass area.
