The DSC Dredge story actually began decades before the company’s inception. Thomas (Tommy) J. Wetta III developed a love for the dredging business during his time living and working on the dredge Orleans as an employee of the Standard Dredging Corporation in 1955. In 1971, Tommy founded Kenner Marine with a friend, and began building dredges. Dredging Supply Co., Inc., was founded in 1989 by Tommy’s friend Bob Dagley. With Tommy’s sons, William (Bill) J. Wetta II and Robert (Bob) B. Wetta, growing up in the family business, it was a natural progression that in 1994, Tommy, Bill and Bob would purchase Dredging Supply Co.
