Description To evaluate the effectiveness of efforts to control sources of problem chemicals to Hylebos Waterway, samples of settling particulate matter (SPM) and in-place bottom sediments were collected between July 1990 and November 1991. All SPM samples were collected with the use of moored sediment traps. Chemical analyses focused on problem metals and organics, which were identified for Hylebos Waterway during the Commencement Nearshore/Tideflats Remedial Investigation.
