You are not doing enough.

However, my expertise focuses on the Hudson River PCBs cleanup.

There are near field (positioned around each dredge operation) monitors that are collecting “real time” data info on things like turbidity, total suspended solids, and disolved oxygen. There are no booms set up to capture suspended solids. There is a website (www.hudsondredgingdata.com) that gives a rundown of all the various monitoring going on…and the results.

Amazing it has been 30 years. Puget Sound has a similiar issue with Boeing and PCBs (yet to be resolved). Regarding the implications with disturbing the sediment, I assume there is downstream water quality monitoring (chemistry and biological) to determine the effects of this project. Are there booms set up to capture suspended solids and other particles?
