Wyckoff Co./Eagle Harbor Beach Investigation for Creosote
This photo series illustrates the creosote sheen seeping from the restoration beach, as well as NOAA's assistance to EPA in the investigation of sources of the sheen. The use of NOAA equipment and staff helped the EPA characterize the nature of the Wyckoff site, while saving scarce EPA funding. The experienced NOAA staff, plus the ability of the track-mounted Geoprobe to move on the soft beach sand and mud without getting stuck, allowed the sampling to be completed a full week ahead of schedule.
