Construction and Water Quality Objectives
South Bay compliance with Water Quality Objectives largely unaffected
Existing Problems (PCBs, DDTs) increased near dredging activities
Immediate areas around dredges of concern for copper in some dredging locations
Notes:
Some of the compliance objectives are summarized here. We did not see large changes in the status of water quality compliance in the South Bay. The existing problems for the Bay -- some of those would be increased near the dredging activities and immediately around the dredging. In the platform area, copper is of concern for a couple of the units that Some of the compliance objectives are summarized here.
