Two large-scale dredging projects will be conducted over the next two years. The
first dredging project, conducted by the USACE in the Federal navigation
channel, will begin this spring. Funding for this project will be provided by the
Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI).
These projects will address multiple contaminants that exist in Buffalo River
sediments, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), polychlorinated
biphenyl (PCB), lead (Pb), and mercury (Hg).
