Contaminated Sediment Science Priorities
Science Policy Council
The document entitled Contaminated Sediments Science Priorities represents an effort by EPA to examine agency-wide science needs (i.e., research, data, and methods) to assess and manage contaminated sediments and develop priorities for research, developing tools and gathering information from a technical staff perspective. The specific science needs, recommendations, and priorities are intended primarily for use by EPA. However, the document also serves as an example of how to coordinate and plan Cross-Agency science activities for agency program and regional needs.
