## 3.0 BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The EPA and the USACE have determined that the existing Jacksonville ODMDS has a remaining capacity of 2 million cubic yards of dredged material from the proposed deepening of Mayport Naval Station and eight years of continued maintenance of Mayport Naval Station and the St. Johns River Entrance Channel. Based on potential increases in maintenance volumes and a deepening project at Jacksonville Harbor currently under study, the USACE has determi ned that the existing Jacksonville ODMDS may reach capacity as early as 2013. EPA and the USACE are therefore initiating the process for either expanding the existing Jacksonville ODMDS or designating a new ODMDS offshore Jacksonville, Florida.

An initial reconnaissance survey was conducted in October 2009 and followed by a second reconnaissance survey in March 2010. Based on results of those surveys, three candidate sites have been identified, one north of the entrance channel and two to the south. A spring designation survey was completed in March/April 2010.



## 4.0 SUMMARY OF SCIENTIF IC ACTIVITIES/ OBSERVATIONS

The survey consisted of epibenthic trawls (taxonomic identification, numeration and tissue analysis), bivalve trawls, sediment sampling for macroinfauna analysis, and water column profiles and water samples. Trawls were conducted in the morning and evening periods and water column profiles were taken at each station during an ebb and flood tide. Sediment Profiling Camera (SPI) stations were conducted at the Jacksonville ODMDS. Dive operations were also conducted to ground-truth previous survey sidescan sonar data. Seas ranged from calm at the beginning of the survey to 3-4 feet near the end. Winds ranged from 5-10 knots to over 15. Daytime temperatures were in the mid 80s ( o

## 5.0 SUMMARY OF RESULTS COMPLETED DURING SURVEY

68 drops of the sampler were required to obtain 54 macroinfauna samples (3 replicates at 18 stations). Sediment samples are summarized in Table 1 attached. 29 epibenthic trawls were conducted. The trawl locations are provided in Table 2 attached. Nine clamSurvey Report: New Jacksonville ODMDS Fall Designation Survey October 2010

U.S. EPA Region 4 - 4 - 

### trawls were conducted and those trawl locations are provided in Table 3 attached. 13 CTD casts were conducted. The locations are provided in Table 4 attached. 13 SPI stations were completed and four dives were completed. A summary of the dive operations is attached. Figures showing the sediment samples and trawl locations are attached.



## 6.0 LIST, COMPLETION DATES, AND DISCUSSION OF PENDING ANALYSIS

Pending analysis includes:

• CTD post processing

• Analysis of water chemistry samples

• Tabulation of macroepifaunal data

• Analysis of tissue samples

• Macroinfauna analysis

All analysis is expected to be completed and included in a final report by February 28, 2011.



## 7.0 PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED The SPI camera did not fully penetrate the sediment. Additional weight was added to the camera frame, but it did not result in increased penetration of the camera. It is possible that the sandy sediment inhibited penetration.

The initial macroepifaunal trawls were completed using a net with rock hoppers, which did not result in catches that were comparable to the spring survey trawls. A net without rock hoppers was substituted on 9/14 and it provided results more consistent with the spring survey. Trawls completed with the first net on 9/13 and 9/14 were duplicated later in the survey with the new net.



## 8.0 ACHIEVEMENT OF SURVEY OBJECTIVES

All primary survey objectives were achieved. Supplementary additional trawls were completed. The secondary objective of conducting SPI sampling was partially achieved.Survey Report: New Jacksonville ODMDS Fall Designation Survey October 2010

## 9.0 PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMEN TAL MANAGEMENT DECISIONS FROM SURVEY

The purpose of this survey was to characterize candidate disposal sites. Therefore, there are no decisions to be made until all studies are completed and the NEPA process is completed.
