Book excerpt: The quality of effluent discharged from confined dredged material disposal areas is an environmental concern when the sediments to be dredged are contaminated. This report describes the development of a modified elutriate test procedure for prediction of the quality of effluent from confined dredged material disposal areas. The test was developed to simulate the physicochemical conditions in confined disposal areas which would affect the release of contaminants. The test development included experiments comparing suspended solids and particle grain-size distributions for test vessel selection. Factorial experiments were then conducted to select appropriate test factors for simulating the oxidizing conditions and retention times present in confined disposal areas. Limited field evaluations of effluent water quality were compared with the laboratory data. The test was found to adequately predict the dissolved concentration of contaminants and the fractions of contaminants associated with the suspended solids in the effluent.

Book excerpt: The effluent discharged from confined dredged material areas during filling operations is considered a dredged material discharge under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The Corps of Engineers has recently developed modified elutriate testing procedures for predicting the quality of effluent, to include both dissolved and particle-associated contaminant concentrations. As a part of this effort, field evaluations were conducted at five confined disposal areas to assess the effluent quality and compare field data with laboratory predictions. The comparisons serve to verify the accuracy and precision of the predictive techniques. For all five sites evaluated, the laboratory test adequately predicted the dissolved and particle-associated concentrations of contaminants in the effluent. The predictions were also generally conservative, i.e., higher than the measured field data. Keywords: Confined disposal, Contaminants, Dredged material, Effluent, Elutriate test, Water quality.
