They can have major economic impacts when controversies over risks and costs of sediment management interfere with needs to dredge major ports. Contaminated Sediments in Ports and Waterways examines management and technology issues and provides guidance that will help officials make timely decisions and use technologies effectively. The book includes recommendations with a view toward improving decision making, developing cost-effective technologies, and promoting the successful completion of cleanup projects. The volume assesses the state of practice and research and development status of both short-term and longer-term remediation methods. The committee provides a conceptual overview for risk-based contaminated sediment management that can be used to develop plans that address complex technological, political, and legal issues and the interests of various stakeholders. The book emphasizes the need for proper assessment of conditions at sediment sites and adequate control of contamination sources. 606 $aContaminated sediments$xManagement 606 $aMarine sediments 606 $aHarbors 606 $aWaterways 615 0$aContaminated sediments$xManagement. 615 0$aMarine sediments. 615 0$aHarbors. 615 0$aWaterways. 676 $a363.739/4 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Contaminated Marine Sediments. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962011503321 996 $aContaminated sediments in ports and waterways$94353271 997 $aUNINA
