Determine whether exceedances of performance standards from the
record of decision and/or comparison criteria of more recent water quality
criteria from EPA have occurred at any of the locations sampled. For this
objective to be successful, low level detection limits for carcinogenic PAHs
are necessary.
Assess concentration gradients between near surface and at depth. For
this objective to be successful, samples from discrete intervals within the
vertical sediment cap profile are required.
Define trends in interstitial water concentrations that may provide early
warning signs of potentially significant contaminant migration through a
cap (i.e. migration that may lead to exceedances of performance
standards in the near future). For this objective to be successful,
detection limits must be sufficiently low to detect PAHs to identify trends.

35% of possible compound detects measured
LPAHs were detected more frequently than other PAHs
Acenapthene and phenanthrene were detected in all
samples
 Only LPAHs were detected in the two background samples

The three most hydrophobic compounds were not
detected in any samples (likely due to low mobility)
 Dibenz(a,h)anthracene
 Benzo(g,h,i)perylene
 Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene


Near shore vertical
concentration profiles
are fairly uniform.
Concentrations either
stay the same or
increase slightly with
depth.
Possibly due to mixing
caused by tidal
fluctuations.


Off shore vertical
concentration
profiles display
greater gradients
than near shore
profiles.
Concentrations
increase with
depth.

Individual PAH concentrations were compared for Locations
5, 9, 12, and 16.



All concentrations increased at Location 5.
Locations 9 and 16 showed some concentrations increasing and some
decreasing
Most concentrations decreased at Location 12.

deepest sample intervals:
 Benz(a)anthracene was 80% of the criterion at Location 5
 Benz(a)anthracene was 60% of the criterion at Location 16

All other compound concentrations at all other

LPAHs detected more frequently than LPAHs
No comparison criteria exceeded in inter-armoring or 6 inches
into sand cap
One cPAH (chrysene) exceeded at 12 inches into sand cap at
Location 5
Few increases noted at 12 inches into sand cap in 2010 samples
relative to 2009 – will get trend data in 5-year sampling events for
early warning
Sediment cap is protective of surface water and functioning as
designed

SPME
 Detection limits << criteria
 More detections from which to draw conclusions
 Higher spatial resolution (no dilution by withdrawing
excessing water volume)
 Eliminates particulate and colloidal artifacts
 Minimal sample processing
 1 day placement, 1 day retrieval vs 1 week conventional
sampling requirement
 More biologically relevant indicator
