1. A method of stabilizing an area of soil, at least a part of said area of soil underlying a body of water, said soil and the area proximal thereto defining a soil stabilization area, said soil stabilization area comprising organic feedstock therein, comprising the steps of: providing a barge positioned in said body of water proximal said area of soil to be stabilized, said barge comprising a mixer and a pump thereon; providing a means for creating particulate organic material from organic feedstock; transferring organic feedstock gathered from said soil stabilization area to said means for creating particulate organic material, and producing a volume of particulate organic material therefrom; with said mixer, mixing cement, sand, water from said body of water, and a quantity of said particulate organic material in proportions suitable for producing a lightweight concrete composition having a density greater than the density of said water in said body of water, and less than the density of said soil; with said pump, pumping said lightweight concrete composition onto said soil to form a layer of lightweight concrete composition thereon; allowing said lightweight concrete composition to cure, thereby forming a layer on said soil resistant to deterioration thereof by water action.
