Interested parties are hereby notified that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Northwestern Division (Corps) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency – Region 10 (EPA) have released the 2016 Sediment Evaluation Framework for the Pacific Northwest (SEF). The 2016 SEF replaces the 2009 SEF. The 2016 SEF is posted on the following Corps webpages at: http://www.nwd.usace.army.mil/Missions/Civil-Works/Navigation/RSET/SEF and http://www.nwp.usace.army.mil/Missions/Environment/DMM/, and on EPA’s Ocean Dumping webpage at: https://www.epa.gov/ocean-dumping/managing-ocean-dumping-epa-region-10#dm Purpose and Background: The SEF guidance is used to evaluate the suitability of dredged material for unconfined, aquatic disposal in the states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. The agencies use the SEF to ensure that Corps Civil Works dredging, and dredging permitted by the Corps Regulatory Program, complies with the Clean Water Act and Marine Protection, Research and Sanctuaries Act. Public Comments: The Draft of the SEF was available for comment between November 19, 2015, and February 1, 2016. Our sincere thanks to everyone who took the time to comment. The agencies’ responses to public comments are posted at: http://www.nwd.usace.army.mil/Missions/Civil-Works/Navigation/RSET/SEF. Public Process to Change the SEF: It is the intent of the agencies to update the SEF guidance in the future, with public input, as revisions become necessary due to new information or refinement of sediment sampling and testing procedures. The public process to propose substantive changes to the SEF appears in Appendix B of the document.
