ABSTRACT:
A barge or scow for transferring refuse from a collection site to a disposal site has an elongated open hold or cavity with a flat bottom sloping downward from a shallow end of the cavity to a deep end where a cargo-discharge gate is located. A number of spaced water-feed nozzles positioned at the shallow end of the cavity are used to direct water at the sides and bottom of the cavity in order to wash through the discharge gate any refuse which has stuck to the sides and bottom of the cavity during a cargo-discharge operation.
