by Ronald C. Chaney (Editor), Kenneth R. Demars (Editor), Gregory N. Richardson (Editor)

Proceedings of the June 1994 title symposium held in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and sponsored by the ASTM Committee on Soil and Rock. Papers identify and describe tests, methods, procedures, and materials used in support of dredging, treatment, and containment of contaminated sediments, and focus on sediment properties and behavior, equipment requirements, and the need for standardization. Sections on transport and handling, restoration, and management strategies investigate subjects such as hydraulic isolation of contaminated sites and hazard/risk assessment tools. Includes b&w photos and diagrams. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
