APPENDIX C 

 Explanatory Notes 



The following matrices summarize DAMOS activities at the CLIS disposal mounds 

 discussed in the text. The matrices are listed according to the initial disposal date. 



Several sediment grab studies have been conducted through the DAMOS Program. 

 These have been summarized into three categories: 



• Physical: Sediment description and/or grain size analyses. 



Chemical: Chemical analyses of sediments for organic and/or inorganic 

 constituents. 



• Benthic: Includes both benthic community and body burden (tissue 



chemical analyses) studies. 



Some notes on Additional Studies: 



• Diver observations often include bottom photographs. 



Coring studies usually incorporate physical and/or chemical sediment analyses. 



Descriptions for many special studies (e.g., DAISY, mussel cages) can be found 

 within the text. 



DAMOS Contributions are published by the New England Division (NED) of the U.S. 

 Army Corps of Engineers. DAMOS Contributions listed in the Activity Matrix provide 

 additional information for each survey. A list of published DAMOS Contributions follow the 

 Activity Matrix.
