Sediment along the western end of the Newport North Marina Jetty is free of contaminants such as metals, PAHs, pesticides, PCBs, phenols and TBT. According to guidelines developed to implement the CWA and MPRSA, the sediment is acceptable for both in-water and upland disposal.
Sediments from Yaquina Bay and the Yaquina River from the river mouth to river mile 14, and from Depoe Slough at river mile .25 and 1.5 were tested. While sediments near the river mouth were "extremely clean," and main-channel sediments were relatively clean, Depoe Slough sediments were more polluted. Alternatives...
This evaluation covers the approximately 30,000 cubic yards of material to be excavated from the South Beach Marina Federal project channel. . . The authorized South Beach Marina Federal project channel is 10 feet deep, 100 feet wide and 2,035 feet long. . . The channel has not been dredged...
This report describes sediment testing done on the Yaquina River benthos between river miles 6 and 11 (a section between Yaquina and Toledo). The sediments were found to be safe for in-water disposal, thus enabling dredging to proceed.
"Nine (9) sediment samples and 1 QC duplicate were collected from Yaquina Bay and South Beach Marina (see Figures 1) on May 31, 2000. All samples were submitted for physical analyses, with 4 samples analyzed for metals (9 inorganic), total organic carbon (TOC), pesticides/polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), phenols, phthalates, miscellaneous extractables,polynuclear...
