Palermo and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1987 maintenance dredging for the Military Ocean Terminal, Sunny Point (MOTSU), project was performed by mechanical clamshell dredge, with material placed in barges and transported to an open-water ocean disposal site. This work was the first major use of mechanical clamshell equipment in North Carolina. Since resource agencies were concerned with operational procedures for clamshell dredges from the standpoint of potential resuspension of sediment during the dredging process and overflow of barges to increase load, a field study was conducted to give site-specific information on the MOTSU clamshell operation. Barge loading characteristics for both overflow and nonoverflow conditions and potential gain in load due to overflow were determined for three barge loads. The load gained during the period of overflow varied from 1.4-3.2%, with corresponding times of overflow from 9 to 28 min. The load gained by filling the disposal barge in one test from a level 1 ft below the coaming to the point of overflow was approximately 6.9%. This, added to the load gained during overflow, corresponded to a total increase in load of 10.1% for this test. The suspended solids concentration of the overflow increased with time of overflow. Plumes from the clamshell bucket spillage were observed to be patchy in nature, were advected downcurrent, and mixed with the ambient water downstream. At this site, suspended sediment levels observed during dredging and overflow probably did not produce any significant adverse environmental effect upon eggs, larvae, juveniles and adult forms of estuarine-dependent fish and shellfish species.

This book was released on 2001-06-07 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a risk-based framework for developing and implementing strategies to manage PCB-contaminated sediments at sites around the country. The framework has seven stages, beginning with problem definition, continuing through assessment of risks and management options, and ending with an evaluation of the success of the management strategy. At the center of the framework is continuous and active involvement of all affected parties-particularly communities-in the development, implementation, and evaluation of the management strategy. A Risk-Management Strategy for PCB-Contaminated Sediments emphasizes the need to consider all risks at a contaminated site, not just human health and ecological effects, but also the social, cultural, and economic impacts. Given the controversy that has arisen at many PCB-contaminated sites, this book provides a consistent, yet flexible, approach for dealing with the many issues associated with assessing and managing the risks at Superfund and other contaminated sites.
