| Abstract | Long Description |
This study plan describes the field and laboratory procedures that will be used to investigate the spatial extent of dioxin and furan contamination of sediments in Dillenbaugh Creek, Chehalis, Washington. The investigation will use 22 surface (top 5 cm) sediment stations and four shallow sediment cores to delineate the horizontal and vertical extent of sediment contamination. The sediment cleanup level has not yet been selected, but the analytical methods used provide detection limits down to likely cleanup levels. EPA method 4025, an immunoassay technique, is the principal analytical method for these sediments. These results will be checked for accuracy and false positive and negatives using high-resolution gas chromatography / high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis, EPA method 1613b, on 40% of the samples. |
