PROJECT DESCRIPTION: CZR Incorporated (CZR) conducted sediment sampling from seven locations in the channel approach into Oregon Inlet Marina. The objective of the sampling was to collect sediment samples representative of the sediments proposed for dredging. Chemical and physical parameters of the sediment samples were evaluated to provide information on appropriate disposal and management techniques.
Samples were collected from within the Walter Slough Channel and Coast Guard Basin channel prism. Water depth at each station was recorded and cores were retrieved, examined, measured, packaged, and transported to the laboratory. Data recorded consisted of sample locations, visual classification, and results of grain size analysis. Results were prepared and presented in a technical memorandum/ report.
