A remediation strategy of temporary draining of contaminated ponded areas followed by capping of isolated locations was specified in the Record of Decision (RoD) by site regulators in 1998. Remediation by pumping of the ponded areas was carried out from 1997 until 2007, when the initial remedial action objectives were met. Many small, isolated locations remained contaminated, however, resulting in continued low rates of waterfowl mortalities. Capping these sites was thus required by the RoD to prevent waterfowl access to the contaminant. Our strategy was to conduct capping operations over the frozen salt marsh to reduce costs, minimize environmental impact, and improve safety while working in an active impact area. By mid-February, there is sufficient ice, continuous cold temperatures, and daylight to conduct operations. The process requires an unexploded ordnance technician to sweep the access routes and sites prior to plowing to expose the ice surface. Two days are allowed to freeze up and strengthen the roads. Geotextile is then laid at the pre-marked capping locations and a layer stone is piled over the Geotextile as capping material. When the ice melts in the spring, the stone is kept consolidated by the geotextile, settling over the contaminated area and isolating it from waterfowl. A test capping operation in 2007 was successful. A full-scale capping operation was carried out in February of 2008. The number of ducks killed by white phosphorus poisoning fell from 35 in 2007 to eight in 2008. The corresponding median mortality rate for the overall duck population fell from 0.9% to 0.3. Ground surveys of the treatment area indicated no adverse environmental impact. Further work was conducted in March of 2009 to address the remaining contaminated areas and to conduct minor maintenance. All capped areas have been sampled along their periphery to ensure completeness of coverage.]]> Tue, 17 Nov 2009 14:58:02 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/904396 In-Place Stabilization of Pond Ash Deposits by Hydrated Lime Columns https://trid.trb.org/View/841493 Fri, 28 Dec 2007 09:54:22 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/841493 Strength and Slake Durability of Lime Stabilized Pond Ash https://trid.trb.org/View/813629 Tue, 31 Jul 2007 07:23:36 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/813629 Life Cycles, Dispersal, and Critical Habitat Utilization of Vertebrates Dependent Upon Small Isolated Water Bodies in the Munson Sandhills and Woodville Karst Plain, Leon County, Florida https://trid.trb.org/View/811324 16 months), and one of the principal study animals, the Striped Newt, has declined or disappeared from almost all of its breeding ponds. During the report period (24 February 2004 - 31 March 2006 with no-cost time extensions until 30 March 2007), water levels returned in Study Pond 1, but only 2 adult Striped Newts entered the pond in years 7-10. In year 10, the drift fence was discontinued because of the possibility that the drift fence, itself, was hindering the normal migrations of pond animals. Striped newts and other pond-utilizing animals were thereafter sought by dipnetting in Study Pond 1 and in most of the 265 other ponds of the Munson Sandhills in years 11 and 12. Only 3 adult Striped Newts from 2 of 18 known potential breeding ponds were found in the past 8 years, and none were taken during this time from Study Pond 1. The Gopher Frog and all the other pond-utilizing vertebrates in the Munson Sandhills have bred in many ponds following the 1999-2000 drought―even though less severe drought conditions have persisted during the period of this report. Only the Striped Newt seems not to have recovered. Potential causes of the Striped Newt decline and recommendations for habitat management and future study are made.]]> Wed, 18 Jul 2007 15:36:34 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/811324 Water Quality Performance of Dry Detention Ponds with Under-Drains https://trid.trb.org/View/804916 Mon, 02 Apr 2007 10:39:08 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/804916 Unit-Process-Based Approach to Design of Highway Runoff Treatment and Control Facilities https://trid.trb.org/View/802575 Thu, 01 Mar 2007 08:39:15 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/802575 Impact of Road Traffic on Breeding Bird Populations https://trid.trb.org/View/796165 Tue, 30 Jan 2007 13:32:07 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/796165 “EVAP” Project https://trid.trb.org/View/798165 Tue, 30 Jan 2007 13:31:18 GMT https://trid.trb.org/View/798165
