Description Ecology's Environmental Assessment Program has conducted a multi-phase study of Salmon Bay sediments to facilitate cleanup efforts by Ecology’s Toxics Cleanup Program. Phase I and Phase II examined physical characteristics and toxic contaminants of Salmon Bay sediments on a broad geographical scale. Objectives of this Phase III study were to assess toxicity of sediments, delineate boundaries of highly contaminated areas, and confirm sediment contamination found during the Phase II study.
