Water, Sediment, and Biological Monitoring for an Ongoing Feasibility Study of the New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway, New Jersey

This dataset was prepared from a Versar Inc. report "Water, Sediment, and Biological Monitoring for an Ongoing Feasibility Study of the New Jersey Intracoastal Waterway, New Jersey", from November 2002.  

The data was incorporated into five ESRI shape files, grouped by similar chemistry.  The shape files include:

- SVOC_sediment - Semi-volatile organic compounds
- Inorganic_sediment - Inorganic compounds
- Pesticide_Sediment - Pesticides
- Tributytin_sediment - Tributytin (TBT), a trialkyl organotin compound, and an ingredient of anti-fouling paint applied to ships and coastal vessels
- PCB_sediment - Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), used in dielectric fluids for capacitors and transformers, heat transfer fluids, hydraulic fluids, lubricating and cutting oils, and as additives in pesticides, paints, carbonless copy paper, adhesives, sealants, plastics, reactive flame retardants, and as a fixative for microscopy.

Each of the shape files has 28 Locations that were derived from decimal latitude and longitudes and reprojected into New Jersey State Plane coordinates(NAD83 ft).  At each of these locations, the water and sediments were tested for various contaminants.

THESE DATASETS REPRESENT ONLY SEDIMENT SAMPLE ANALYSES.  THE WATER SAMPLE ANALYSES WERE NOT ENCORPORATED INTO THESE DATASETS (see the original Appendix A Excel file from the report for the original data).  NOTE: ONLY THE "BULK CONCENTRATION" VALUES ARE INCLUDED IN THE FINAL FIVE GIS DATASETS...  THE STANDARD AND MODIFIED RESULTS ARE NOT INCLUDED (see versar report (no appendices).pdf, page 1-1 and 1-2.

Data verification was performed to ensure all locations were in the generally correct area on the map.

The following is a key to the attribute table column name abbreviations for each of the five shape files.  The left column is the abbreviated field name used in the shape file, the right column is the full name, which indicates the compound that was tested.  Units of measure for each of the five groups of compounds are indicated in parentheses next to the compound-group shape file name:
