Book Dredging Operations Technical Support Program  Guidance for Contracting Biological and Chemical Evaluations of Dredged Material

Download or read book Dredging Operations Technical Support Program Guidance for Contracting Biological and Chemical Evaluations of Dredged Material written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contracting is a cost-effective method for increasing the capability of the Corps of Engineers to conduct dredged material evaluations. Test data generated by a contractor are used as an integral part of the decision-making process by the Corps and the US Environmental Protection Agency regarding the suitability of dredged material for disposal. Therefore, conscientious contract management is vital to ensure that the generated data are of the highest quality, are obtained in a competent fashion, and can be defended against legal- scientific challenge. This report provides a general outline of the various types of contractors, guidance on a variety of activities required for management of chemical and biological contracts, and quality assurance/quality control techniques specifically for dredged and fill material. This report will provide project managers with procedures that will produce data that are reliable and can be used as the basis for important regulatory decisions. Keywords: Biological testing, Dredged material, Chemical testing, Fill material, Contractor, Quality assurance.

Book Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Disposal at Island  Nearshore  Or Upland Confined Disposal Facilities   Testing Manual

Download or read book Evaluation of Dredged Material Proposed for Disposal at Island Nearshore Or Upland Confined Disposal Facilities Testing Manual written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This manual is a resource document providing technical guidance for evaluation of potential contaminant migration pathways from confined disposal facilities (CDFs). Disposal of dredged material in CDFs is one of the most commonly considered alternatives for material deemed unsuitable for conventional open water disposal because of potential contaminant impacts and is also an option commonly considered for disposal of contaminated sediments dredged for purposes of sediment remediation. If contaminated sediments are placed in a CDF, consideration of pathways for migration of contaminants from the site and potential contaminant impacts may be required. A suite of evaluation procedures and laboratory test procedures has been developed to evaluate CDF contaminant pathways and is presented in detail in this manual. A tiered testing and evaluation approach is used. The Tier I evaluation determines the need for pathway evaluations, pathways of concern, contaminants of concern, and which pathways require more detailed evaluations based on existing information. Tier II evaluations consist of determining the need for management actions derived from very conservative techniques that use the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of the dredged material and basic information about the CDF. Tier III focuses primarily on definitive evaluations, including pathway testing. Tier IV, which should rarely be needed for navigation projects, includes formal quantitative risk assessment designed to answer specific, well-defined questions.
