Phase 2Phase 2 OverviewFactsheet2015

Dredging OverviewIn February 2002, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued a Record of Decision (ROD) for the Hudson River PCBs Superfund site that calls for the targeted environmental dredging of approximately 2.65 million cubic yards of PCB-contaminated sediment from a 40-mile section of the Upper Hudson River. The cleanup covers three sections of the Upper Hudson River: River Section 1 (from the former Fort Edward Dam to the Thompson Island Dam); River Section 2 (from the Thompson Island Dam to the Northumberland Dam); and River Section 3 (from Northumberland Dam to the Federal Dam at Troy). Within the River Sections, dredging is conducted in areas of approximately 5 acres each called Certification units “CUs”. Dredge areas are depicted by year in the maps on the following pages of this factsheet.

For More Information For more information, visit*, call toll-free, or write to the Hudson River Field Office at the address below. More information about the Hudson River PCBs Superfund site is also available online: www.epa.gov/hudson.
