Sediment PCB, air PCB, air particulate matter, and water turbidity data in the Manistique River and harbor, Lake Michigan, for the Manistique River area of concern – operable unit 2 remediation project from 2019-05-14 to 2019-11-19 (NCEI Accession 0222339)

Data were collected in association with the removal of PCB contaminated sediment during the Manistique River Area of Concern Operable Unit 2 remediation construction efforts. Data collected included the following: (i) Water column turbidity readings acquired using a YSI PRO DSS - handheld multi-parameter instrument for documenting potential impacts to water quality during construction activities; (ii) Sediment confirmation samples acquired using a Vibracore and Ponar Dredge for documenting PCB levels remaining in the sediment following the completion of dredging (and prior to placement of cover material); (iii) Air samples acquired using a Leland Legacy Low Volume Sampler for documenting potential PCB impacts to the community during construction activities; (iv) Air monitoring samples acquired using a DustTrak II 8530 for documenting potential particulate dust impacts to the community during construction activities. Pace Environmental Laboratories and Eurofins TestAmerica Burlington analyzed the sediment samples and air samples, respectively, for PCB. Most of the results from this work are presented in csv file format, with XML, Microsoft Word, and PDF/a files also included. This project was funded under NOAA Grant Nos. NA13NMF4630257 and NA19NMF4630008. The project partners involved are the State of Michigan Department of Technology, Management, and Budget (DTMB), Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE), United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Construction work was completed by White Lake Dock and Dredge, Inc. and Arcadis of Michigan, LLC who were the State of Michigan’s design and oversight consultant.
