Welcome to EPA's Hudson River dredging data website.
This site provides access to performance standard monitoring data that was generated as part of Phase 1 dredging and sediment processing facility operations.
Phase 1 dredging occurred between May 15 - October 26, 2009. Performance standard monitoring data was collected daily between May-Dec 2009. Post-dredging (weekly) monitoring began in late December 2009.
Rail car loading and transport of the dredged material at the sediment processing and dewatering facility in Fort Edward, to a licensed off-site disposal facility, will continue through the winter.

| PEER REVIEW INTRODUCTORY SESSION |
|
On Feb. 17 and 18, the Phase 1 Peer Review Panel for the Hudson River dredging project held an Introductory Session in Saratoga Springs, NY at the Gideon Putnam Hotel. The focus of this meeting was for the Peer Review Panel to hear presentations from U.S. EPA and General Electric Co. regarding information gained during Phase 1 of the dredging project. Evaluation reports prepared by U.S. EPA and GE were reviewed with respect to the Engineering Performance Standards (resuspension of PCBs, residual contamination, and production rate).
