Project Overview
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR) are currently working together to implement a comprehensive long-term plan to delist the Saint Louis River Area of Concern (SLR AOC). Many of the Beneficial Use Impairments (BUIs) in the AOC are linked to the presence of sediment contaminants. This activity is for sediment sampling field work which will be conducted at the Mud Lake site in the SLR AOC. Bay West will conduct additional sediment characterization to evaluate ecological risk and reporting of sediment results and remedy decisions.
