Sediments 



Heavy metal analyes of sediments from the area of the New London disposal 

 site are presented in Table F-2. Those samples in the closest proximity of the 

 dump site are generally quite different from all the other New London samples. 

 The samples over one half mile from active dumping show no enrichment of metal 

 and are among the cleanest in the whole region, comparing well with Brenton 

 Reef and Cornfield Shoals. Since the effect of contamination from metals can 

 not be identified in samples other than the three closest to the dump site, we 

 may state that the effect of dumping metal containing spoil in New London is 

 restricted to one half mile or less.
