That's a relief, Els. Especially not for engineering questions.

Sorry, but I don't like Eurodicautom... and I'm not the only one who does not really trust that source sometimes...

silting up

Van Dale gives 'silt up' as a definition of 'aanlanden' and while berming may be the same, dredging is usually associated with removing unwanted deposits, whereas berming could be deliberate depositing to form a berm, as in a dyke.

\'zwarte aanlading\' is given in IATE (https://iate.cdt.eu.int/iatenew/consultation/search/sresults... - which has superceded Eurodicautom) as \'black deposits\' which I believe substantiates my answer above.

I rather agree about Eurodicautom - but IATE seems to be a distinct improvement, with options for degrees of confidence, just like KudoZ.
Perhaps our friends(?) in Brussels are undegoing a process of continuous education via the web!

Sorry - slip of the typing finger - however my initial explanation still stands - see Van Dale \'aanlanden\'.

Alternative via IATE is \'landing\' from fisheries, which seems slightly less relevant, unless your case relates to where the pipeline comes ashore or \'lands\'. Then there is a dichotomy concerning which is intended. Perhaps it could even be \'silting up\' where the pipeline comes ashore? Good luck!
