Summary: Dredging, followed by thin-layer capping and monitoring was performed at the Lower Duwamish Waterway. Modeling to understand the effect of sedimentation on the recovery times showed timeframes of 10-20 years were required. Thin-layer capping could more quickly reduce risks of bioaccumulation in fish according to the model.
