TO; <br />FROH: <br />SUBJECT: <br />All Interested Parties <br />Joe Rossillon - Freshwater Foundation <br />% <br />i <br />Testing of Lafayette Bay Dredging Project <br />The Freshwater Biological Institute, as agreed, has been performing water, <br />tests on the Lafayette Bay Dredging Project. The teste fall in the following <br />categories. <br />Pretest: <br />1. Lafayette Bay - tested for turbidity: Ph, Nitrogen and Phosphate <br />for base line data. <br />2. Marsh - Tested for chemistry, Ph, Nitrogen, Carbon and Phosphate <br />and Chlorophyl levels. <br />• * <br />Testing during dredging: <br />1. Lafayette Bay - Turbidity <br />2. Marsh - Tested for Ph, Nitrogen, Carbon, Phosphate and Chlorophyl <br />levels. <br />3. Sludge Pond - Ph level (in case of the need to dump - not dumping <br />occured.) <br />Results: <br />Mote: <br />1. Lafayette Bay - as could be expected sufficient turbidity occurred <br />with barge dredging *> no significant turbidity occurred w:.th the <br />vacuum dredging. <br />2. Marsh - no non normal or significant change occurred on the chemical <br />upkeep of the marsh during the dredging process. <br />3. Pond - No lumping occurred from the ponds. Water cither seeped or <br />evaporated out at on acceptable rate. <br />1. Some tests must be sent to a-central laboratory so some results are <br />still coming in. <br />2. A complete report, with all data and charts will be submitted after <br />the completion of all pumping and after the sludge pond is empty. <br />3. The principle scientist, John Bromley, is on vaction this week and <br />not available personally to report. <br />4. The sampling this week is being done by Joel Settles. <br />I , i .•^31^? <br />0B oW«*° <br />0% M
