Abstract
In agreements reached with the Port of San Diego and the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), a 9.2-acre engineered (geotextile, sand, gravel, and rock armor) cap was constructed and completed in 2008 to isolate contaminated sediments at the Former Campbell Shipyard Site, San Diego Bay, San Diego, California. The cap included a special 1.6-acre eelgrass habitat cap. Using novel sediment and pore water monitoring stations installed in the cap, samples collected during the first 3 years of a 20-year mandated monitoring and reporting program indicate that the cap has been effective in retaining all constituents of concern (COCs). Monitored COCs include copper, lead, zinc, total PAHs, PCBs, total TPH, and butyltins.
