Contaminated sediment management for ecological recovery / John H. Hartig [and three others].: En13-5/99-241E-PDF
"In the Great Lakes Basin there are 42 degraded areas called ‘Areas of Concern' where there are significant environmental problems referred to as impaired beneficial uses. In each case there is a multi-stakeholder process in place to develop and implement a Remedial Action Plan (RAP) to restore uses. All 42 Areas of Concern have contaminated sediment based on the application of chemical guidelines. In addition, there is a consensus among government, industry, non-governmental organizations, and RAP groups that contaminated sediment is a major cause of environmental problems, as well as a key factor in restoring 11 of the 14 beneficial use impairments identified in the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement"--Abstract.
