EPA's 72nd update is to inform the community of the progress of activities
related to the dredging performed on the 36-acre portion of the Pompton
Lake Study Area known as the Acid Brook Delta (ABD). EPA is resum-
ing the use of this format for providing a status update as the level of
activity for this season '.s work is about to increase.

~	Continued demobilization/disassembly of equipment.

~	Continued mobilization of equipment associated with the next phase of
work—ecological layer placement.

of ecological layer.

Note:

HYDRAULIC AND MECHANICAL DREDGING ARE COMPLETE.

THIS PHASE OF WORK IS "CLEAN" WORK MEANING THAT
THE PLACEMENT OF THE ECOLOGICAL LAYER AND SITE
RESTORATION DO NOT INVOLVE THE HANDLING OR
TRANSPORT OF CONTAMINATED SEDIMENT.

THERE WILL BE INCREASED TRUCK TRAFFIC DURING THIS
PHASE DUE TO THE DELIVERY OF ECOLOGICAL MATERIAL
(i.e. SAND). TRAFFIC CONTROLS WILL BE IN PLACE.

EPA WILL CONTINUE ITS PRESENCE AT BOROUGH HALL ON
THURSDAYS FROM 10AM UNTIL 4PM. ALTERNATIVELY, DO
NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT US USING THE CONTACT IN-
