Industrial Waste Ditch surface sediment chemical and physical properties, Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy and Naval Reactors Facility (NRF), collected sediment samples along the Industrial Waste Ditch (IWD) located on the northern boundary of the NRF. Sediment samples were collected at various intervals downstream from the outfall at different positions within the ditch as well as dredge pile sediments proximal to the ditch. The sediment samples were sent to multiple laboratories to be analyzed for total metals, chromium (VI), pH, redox potential (eH), cation exchange capacity (CEC), total organic carbon (TOC), and grain size analysis. The data returned from the analytical labs were compiled into tabular format (.csv) and are presented here.
