An omnidirectional blast media dispensing apparatus mounted to an excavator and designed to dispense abrasive media from a blast pot is provided. The apparatus adjusts directional flow of the abrasive media exiting the apparatus to contact a desired target. The apparatus includes a housing coupled to the boom of the excavator, a hydraulic motor assembly coupled to the housing and operably connected to hydraulic lines of the excavator, and a main tubular member rotatably mounted to the housing and operably connected to the hydraulic motor assembly. The first end of the main tubular member is coupled to the blast pot and a nozzle is coupled to the second end of the main tubular member. Fluid flows from the hydraulic lines of the excavator to the hydraulic motor assembly to enable the hydraulic motor assembly to rotatably adjust the main tubular member to direct the nozzle toward the target.

In order to meet the objective of providing a device (10) and a method for a sediment transfer in waters (80, 81, 90) that works efficiently, a device (10) comprising at least one suction line (12) and at least one receiving means (16) for receiving sediment (70), and furthermore, having at least one pressure line (14) for transferring the received sediment (70) is proposed. Following the at least one receiving means (16), at least one pump device (18) and at least one measuring device (20) for determining a sediment concentration of the received sediment (70) are arranged. The device (10) further comprises a control unit (22) having a first interface (25) for inputting target values (24) and a second interface (26) for the at least one measuring device (20), and determines a sediment concentration in the at least one suction line (12) and/or in the at least one pressure line (14). Depending on the sediment concentration, a power of the pumping device (18) is adjustable.
