Dredging works are commonly described as removal of sediments from underwater which involving excavation process. Soil and rocks are excavated for channel and harbor deepening and for land reclamation. Land reclamation is defined as usage of dredged sediments to construct or build new land in the sea. This research aims to investigate the impact of dredging and reclamation projects as dredging and reclamation are one of the geotechnical engineering elements. Human activities such as dredging and reclamation may lead to geo-hazards such as coastal erosion, landslides, flooding and etc. In this research, 157 villagers from Teluk Rampang and Langkah Baik, Pengerang, Kota Tinggi in Malaysia has been selected as respondents to answer the distributed questionnaire. As a result, the analysis shows that villagers become victims due to the reclamation project executed to construct petroleum hub in Pengerang, Kota Tinggi. The impact can be reduced with a proper monitoring and management by the project stakeholders’.
