PD! Study Element Bathymetric Survey
Surface Sediment Sampling for Baseline and SMA Delineation
SMB Fish Tissue Sampling for Baseline
Surface Water Sampling for Baseline
Subsurface Sediment Coring to Refine Remedial Footprint Boundaries Fish Acoustic Tracking Study
Downtown/Upriver Reach: Sediment, Surface Water, Tissue, and Trap Sampling to assess incoming loads
Background Porewater Sampling
Genera! Approach and Rationale
Current bed elevations to support the CSM, evaluating changes in sediment bed elevation, and run through decision tree. For SMA delineation and Baseline with Site Total sample count of 640 within Site:
428 random; Full ROD Table 17 Sediment COC list 212 SMA samples; Focused COCs only (1) Split 4 segments in half for 8 segment, plus Swan Island. 3-point composite (over small area)
Additional sample locations may be considered for reoccupation
Smallmouth bass fish tissue sampling at 95 stations in the Site Individual whole body samples, derive fillet values through relationship Full ROD Table 17 Tissue COCs Seven transects, 3 seasonal events, 3 subsamples per transect Vertical and horizontal compositing along transect Sample with high volume XAD samplers for low MDLs and peristaltic pump for select analytes Full ROD Table 17 Surface Water COCs, total and dissolved 90 sediment cores typically 10 to 15-ft deep and 6-ft in nearshore areas 2-ft sample increments Archive deeper intervals in 1 ft increments, as practical Focused COCs only <1), plus TOC and grain size
Year long study of acoustic tracking of SMB fish movements
60 sediment samples collected between RM 11.8 to RM 28.4 targeting fine grained sediment (30 samples Downtown Reach, 30 samples Upriver Reach)
40 SMB samples (20 in Downtown Reach; 20 in Upriver Reach) Surface water transects at RM 11.8 and RM 16.2 3 seasonal sampling events for surface water
Two sediment traps per transect at RM 11.81 and 16.5 (match SW program)
Full ROD Table 17 COCs for each media; all data will be considered; assumes sufficient sediment and fish present 10 locations with 3 composites per location Target placement in representative background areas, locations TBD Naturally-occurring COC metals - arsenic and manganese
Notes:
(1): Focused COCs Include RGBs, DDx, PAHs, and Dioxins and Furans
Abbreviations: COCs - contaminants of concern; SW - surface water; SMA - Sediment Management Area; TOC - Total Organic Carbon; MDL - method detection limits; SMB - smallmouth bass; PCB - polychlorinated biphenyls; DDx - sum of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane and its derivatives; PAHs - polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons; CSM - Conceptual Site Model

Spatial Scale
Media
Obtain SMA baseline
1
characterization data adequate to refine the remedial footprint
SMA specific
for allocation purposes
Discrete sediment grabs (0 to 30 cm), bathymetry, sediment cores
Establish current baseline conditions (SWACs, CSM) to 2 evaluate future remedy performance and progress towards RAOs
Site-wide, segments, rolling RM
3
Evaluate recovery changes within the Site
Site-wide, segments
Surface sediment, fish tissue (SMB), surface water
Surface sediment, fish tissue (SMB), surface water
4
Update Downtown and Upriver Reach datasets
RM 11.8 to 28.4
Surface sediment, fish tissue (SMB), surface water; porewater
Questions to Answer
Have the active remedial footprints changed since the FS? Can we refine the footprints and reduce uncertainty? Have the elevations changed since the FS, hence the footprint changes through the ROD technology decision tree?
What are the extent of footprints above RALs?
What are concentrations of COCs prior to remedial activities?
Do results support refinement of the remedial footprint?
What are current baseline risks? Are Site conditions improving since the RI/FS datasets?
Do improvements support the narrative of MNR?
What are upstream concentrations of select COCs in sediment and fish tissue, and have they changed since the RI/FS datasets? What are background concentrations of naturallyoccurring metals COCs in porewater? How could new data inform future evaluation of remedy performance and what is achievable?
Notes: (1) Data collected for each project goal may serve multiple data use objectives (DUOs). Abbreviations:
COCs - chemicals of concern; FS - feasibility study; ROD - Record of Decision; SWAC - surface weighted average concentrations; SMB - small mouth bass
