| Objectives | Aims
1. To conduct a vibrocoring survey for assessing deep layer of Contaminated dredged material (CDM) and sediment characteristics at Souter Point disposal site, in order to obtain information on: a) Sediment (Particle Size analysis-PSA, organic carbon and nitrogen) b) Contaminants (TBT, PAHs, trace metals) 2. To undertake a Sediment Profile Imagery (SPI) survey to characterise sediments and faunal presence at the Souter Point disposal site and adjacent areas. 3. To sample North Tyne dredged material disposal site to characterise sediments (PSA, organic carbon and nitrogen) and contaminants(TBT, PAHs, organohalogens, trace metals) 4. To undertake survey to sample at the Inner Tees dredged material disposal site for characterising sediments (e.g. PSA, organic carbon and nitrogen) and contaminants(TBT, PAHs, organohalogens, trace metals) | ||||||||
