EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
SK

Between 1984 and 1986, the baseline phase of the National Status and Trends Program was conducted at approximately
50 estuarine and coastal sites around the nation. Numerous histopathological observations of fish tissues and measurements
of concentrations of chemical contaminants in sediments and fish tissues were made to quantify the status of United States
coastal habitats with respect to environmental contamination. One of the products of this effort is a large data set containing
information on concentrations of contaminants that possibly may threaten the health of the nation’s coastal ecosystems. This
body of data is useful to environmental scientists and managers. The purpose of this document is to make the chemical
contaminant data available to the environmental community. Data summaries are presented in both graphical and tabular
form. - _

INTRODUCTION

The National Status and Trends (NS&T) Program is an
ongoing federal program initiated in 1984 to establish and
maintain an information base needed to quantify the status
of, and temporal and spatial trends in, concentrations of
selected chemical contaminants, as well as indicators of
potential biological effects, in the nation’s coastal and
estuarine ecosystems (National Ocean Service 1989). A
nationally uniform set of measurement techniques is used to
obtain comprehensive, high quality data on environmental
quality. A rigorous quality assurance program is an integral
part of the NS&T Program.

One of the NS&T Program’s major components is the
Benthic Surveillance Project, the objectives of which in-
clude quantifying baseline levels of selected chemical com-
pounds at approximately 50 sites in estuarine and coastal
areas around the nation, and detecting trends in habitat
contamination by monitoring levels of selected chemicals in
sediments and fish tissues.

During 1984-86, personnel of the Northeast Fisheries
Center (NEFC) participated in the baseline phase of the
Benthic Surveillance Project, collecting and analyzing
samples of sediments and fish tissues from 20 sites through-
out the northeastern region.

The purpose of this document is to make available the
large body of chemical data resulting from NEFC participa-
tion in the baseline phase of the NS&T Benthic Surveillance
Project.

METHODS

Twenty sites were sampled in the northeastern region
(Figure 1). A list of station locations, samples collected, and
site codes used in the figures in the Analyte Summary
section is given in Table 1. A list of variables measured, the
matrices in which they were measured, and analyte codes
used in the figures in the Site Summary section is given in
Table 2.

Sites were selected to encompass a range of environ-
mental conditions. Field methods and sample collection
protocols are detailed in a report by Shigenaka and Lauen-
stein (1988).

All sediment and tissue samples were collected and
stored individually. Depending on the matrix, however,
samples were analyzed either individually or as composites.
Sediments for both hydrocarbon and metal analyses were
composites of the 0-3 cm layer of surface sediment from
each of three bottom samples at each of 3-5 stations in each
site; one composite per station was analyzed. Thirty speci-
mens of each targeted fish species were collected at each
site. Stomach content samples for both hydrocarbon and
metal analyses were composites of 10 individual specimens;
one composite per site was analyzed. Liver samples for
hydrocarbon analyses were composites of 10 individual

Page 1

specimens; three composites per site were analyzed. Liver
samples for metal analyses were not composited; 10 individ-
ual specimens per site were analyzed.

Methods used for analyses of hydrocarbons in tissues
and sediments are described by MacLeod et al. (1985) and
Krahn et al. (1988), Hydrocarbon analyses were performed
under the direction of D. Gadbois of the National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) Gloucester (Massachusetts) Labo-
ratory.

Methods used for analyses of metals in tissues were
developed at the NMFS Beaufort (North Carolina) Labora-
tory under the direction of P. Hanson, based on a procedure
described by Okamoto and Fuwa (1984). Methods used for
analyses of metals in sediments were developed at the
NMFS Sandy Hook (New Jersey) Laboratory under the
direction of V. Zdanowicz, based on a procedure described
by Bernas (1968). Metal analyses were performed under the
direction of V. Zdanowicz of the Sandy Hook Laboratory.

Sediment grain size determinations employed a modi-
fication of a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proce-
dure (Plumb 1981). Total organic carbon (TOC) determina-
tions were performed using the method described by Hedges
and Stern (1984). Grain size and TOC analyses were
performed under the direction of P. Hanson of the Beaufort
Laboratory.

DATA PRESENTATION

Data presented in the figures in the Site Summary and
Analyte Summary sections are mean values for each analyte
for each site over the 1984-86 period. When calculating
means, “less than” values were used as best estimates of the
actual concentrations. Since “less than” values estimate
maximum concentrations, a positive bias is introduced into
the calculated means.

The Site Summary section is a graphical summary of
data from each site, presenting distributions of analytes in
each sample matrix (Figures 2-21). Due to the wide range
of concentrations observed, data are presented ona common
log scale.

The Analyte Summary section is a graphical summary
of data for each analyte by sample matrix, showing distribu-
tions of analytes at all sites (Figures 22-28).

No fish specimens were obtained at the Mid Chesap-
eake (CM) or Baltimore Harbor (BA) sites; therefore, no
data appear at those sites in figures of hydrocarbons or
metals in stomach contents and livers. In addition, metals
were not measured in stomach contents in samples collected
in 1986 (see Table 1); consequently, no data appear at the
Quincy Bay (QB) or Elizabeth River (ER) sites in figures of
metals in stomach contents. Also, stations sampled at the
Casco Bay (CB) site in 1984 were located at the mouth of the
bay rather than the interior, so those data were not included
in the means shown in the figures. Finally, 1984 tissue data
from the Lower Chesapeake (CL) site were not included in
any figures, as a different species was collected in 1985 and
