Field Verification Program (Upland Disposal): Synthesis of the Results of the Field Verification Program Upland Disposal Alternative

Abstract

Contaminated dredged material from the Black Rock Harbor (BRH) maintenance dredging project in the US Army Corps of Engineers New England Division was used to field verify: (a) procedures for predicting the quality of effluent discharged from the upland site during filling operations, (b) procedures for predicting the quality of upland surface runoff resulting from rainfall following disposal, (c) possible changes in ground-water quality following disposal, (d) procedures for predicting potential contaminant mobility into plants, and (e) procedures for predicting potential contaminant mobility into animals.
