vast amounts of material will be needed to raise the runways and other structures above sea level. Some could probably be found by dredging, but probably not enough, and more likely, insufficient with the right mechanical properties.

Sand is all you require, as the Dutch have adequately demonstrated. See the rest of this thred for details.
