Aquatic Dredged Material Disposal Impacts.
Abstract
Under the Dredged Material Research Program (DMRP), studies of the impact of dredged material disposal in open-water systems (Aquatic Disposal Field Investigations (ADFI)) were conducted at five locations: New York (Eatons Neck), Ohio (Ashtabula River), Texas (Galveston), Oregon (Columbia River), and Washington (Duwamish Waterway). The sites were representative of a variety of disposal practices, dredged materials, and aquatic habitats. Disposal did not occur during the course of the Eatons Neck ADFI but did at the other four sites. This report summarizes the findings of the investigations.
