Murky indeed are the approximately 14-28 million annual cubic yards of the contaminated marine sediments (e.g. dioxin, PCBs, and polyaromatic hydrocarbons) in dredged US waterways impacting the economy and ecology. Recommended remediation strategies for pertinent government agencies and contractors center on interim and long-term control technologies, and improved site-specific decision- making. Appendices contain biographical sketches of the committee members, regulatory framework information, case histories of representative projects, and applications of cost-benefit and decision analyses for management of problematic sediments.
