| Abstract |
The report provides an overview of a strategy for controlling sources of toxic contamination and associated biological effects in estuarine environments. Known as the urban bay approach, this toxics control strategy has been applied in bays throughout Puget Sound. The report is intended to serve as a guide to the urban bay approach for managers of environmental regulatory programs. The approach was developed and refined in the Puget Sound region, and is recommended for application in other estuaries. Specific recommendations are included throughout the report and examples from the Puget Sound region are used to illustrate the application of the approach. The objectives of the urban bay action program are to identify specific toxic areas of concern, identify historical and ongoing sources of contamination, rank 'problem areas' and sources in terms of priority for corrective action, and implement corrective actions to reduce current contamination sources. An approach similar to the one described here for controlling toxic contaminants can also be applied to reduce microbial contamination and eutrophication. |
