About this ebook
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) are responsible for developing guidelines to regulate the disposal of dredged material. Many governmental and private interest groups in the Mississippi River basin are concerned about potential hazards associated with the possible release of contaminant substances during dredging activities and the deleterious effects that resuspended materials may have on aquatic organisms. This study was conducted to determine the biological activity and chemical characteristics of dredge material from 10 sites in the Upper Mississippi River between St. Paul and Winona, Minnesota. Funds for the study were provided by the St. Paul District of COE.
