Abstract
This decision document amends the selected remedial action for the New Bedford Harbor Superfund Site, Hot Spot Operable Unit locate din New Bedford, Massachusetts, as outlined in the April 6, 1990 Record of Decision. The 1990 ROD called for dredging contaminated sediments from the identified hot spot areas with PCB concentrations of 4,000 ppm or greater, transporting the dredged sediments to a shoreline Confined Disposal Facility (CDF), treatment of the supernatant, dewatering the sediments and destruction of the PCBs in an on-site incinerator. The activities associated with dredging the hot spot areas and treating the supernatant have been completed. This decision document selects off-site landfilling instead of on-site incineration.
