DescriptionThe Lower Passaic River Restoration Project ("the Study") is a comprehensive study of the 17-mile tidal portion of the Passaic River and its watershed. During the course of the Study, sediments in the lower eight miles of the river were identified as a major source of contamination to the 17-mile Study Area and to Newark Bay. Therefore, this Focused Feasibility Study (FFS) was undertaken to evaluate a range of remedial alternatives that might be implemented as an early action to control that major source. The sections of Appendix B summarize the technical approaches employed and present the preliminary remediation goals (PRG) to support the Draft Focused Feasibility Study (FFS). Health protective PRGs were developed for both sediment and fish media; the latter are provided for consideration during a potential long-term monitoring phase following implementation of a remedial alternative.
