Sampling Program Goals:
Monitor sediment cap (and groundwater) remedy to understand performance related to minimizing releases of contaminants from sediments that might result in contamination of the Willamette River in excess of federal and state ambient water quality criteria
Fluvial system characteristics (semi-annual monitoring) Lower Willamette tidally-influenced Transition-zone water may reflect variations in:
Discharge (Q, or cubic feet per second) River stage (stream elevation) Stream velocity (feet per second)

Sampling Methodology Semi-annual sampling locations
24 surface water stations 22 inter-armoring water and 22 sub armoring water stations

Spring Higher flow Higher gradient Fewer flow reversals
Fall Less gradient More reversals
Seasonality of the River

Sampling Results - SW cPAHs in surface water
All below 0.031 µg/L sediment cap performance goal; with exception of Location 15 (Spring 2009) where low level CPAHs were detected in surface water but not detected in the inter-armoring or subarmoring samples
Spring is when River has higher turbidity and higher flow.

Conclusions COC concentrations in surface water and sub-
armoring are generally below comparison criteria with the exception of arsenic (MDL)
Detections frequencies and concentrations increase with depth (highest in SA)
Concentrations are generally lower in spring events however, SW can be elevated in Spring with High River Discharge
cPAHs decline since remedy: Not detected in SW samples since Spring 2006 (with one
exception at Location 15) ND in IA samples since Fall 2006
Concentrations trends stable to decreasing Sediment cap is protective of surface water
