Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, the U.S. Army Engineer District, Buffalo, initiated a Civil Works dredging operation on the Toussaint River where it enters into Lake Erie. The Toussaint River is adjacent to the former Erie Army Depot (near Port Clinton, Ohio), a previous Department of Defense facility that used a section of Lake Erie from 1918 through 1965 as an impact area for testing and proof firing Army ordnance. A hydraulic dredge had nearly completed the 42,OOO-m3 (55,000-yd3) project when a 106-mm artillery projectile was found jammed in the cutterhead and the Buffalo District immediately halted dredging operations. Subsequent unexploded ordnance (UXO) investigation and removal actions along the beach of the former Erie Army Depot (from the mouth of the river to approximately 3 miles east) located over 5,000 items of ordnance ranging in size from 20 mm to 165 nun. The Buffalo District, under the auspices of the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP) - Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS), conducted a demonstration dredging project on the Toussaint River from 10 July through 26 October 1995, that was specifically designed to address the UXO presence. The purpose of this demonstration project was to evaluate the operational effectiveness of a modified clamshell bucket dredging process designed to safely separate and retrieve UXO from the sediment prior to its disposal. During the demonstration, 14,757 m3 (19,300 yd3) of sediment were dredged, 31 inert pieces of ordnance were located and removed, and 6 live UXOs were destroyed (totaling 258 kg (568 lb) of scrap). This paper describes the demonstration project with regard to dredging system design, operation, and associated costs.

Book excerpt: On September 25, 1991, while doing a maintenance dredging operation at the mouth of the Toussaint River, a live 106mm High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT) round was discovered stuck in the cutterhead of the dredge and it was removed by hand. Picture in your mind this contractor wedging a crowbar between the cutterhead and the live round trying to dislodge it. Luckily the round did not explode, but the routine maintenance project came to an abrupt end. The Toussaint River is adjacent to the former Erie Army Depot, active from 1918 to September 1965. One of the depot's missions was to proof test artillery ammunition. This was accomplished by firing at targets on or near the beach and out into Lake Erie. Over the years large amounts of ammunition, both live and inert, have been washing up onto the shore. This has contaminated the shallow waters off the beach (some getting caught in fishermen's nets), and some ending up in the Toussaint River channel. In July of 1991, the Former Erie Army Depot was declared eligible for cleanup under the Defense Environmental Restoration Program-Formerly Used Defense Site (DERP-FUDS). In the fall of 1992 an Interim Removal Action (IRA) was conducted by Explosives Ordnance Disposal Technology (EODT). They removed and disposed of approximately 5,000 rounds of various ammunition items (60mm to 165mm) from a three mile long by 500 feet wide beach front. A Revised Inventory Project Report (INPR) was written in June 1994 to include the Toussaint River and Dredge Disposal Area as eligible for cleanup under DERP-FUDS. Preparation for an Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) to study the cleanup of ordnance contamination at former Erie Army Depot started. The EE/CA was terminated on November 24, 1994 because rights-of-entry were not given from the current owners. On July 10, 1995, after considerable delay due to equipment and logistic problems, the Toussaint River Dredging Demonstration began.

Book excerpt: The Indiana bat, Myotis sodalis, is classified by the Department of Interior as an endangered species. In developing a plan that will enable the recovery of the bat from its endangered predicament, an extensive search was made for literature concerning the species. This compilation is intended as an aid to biologists and conservationists interested in the animal and its habitats; it is hoped the bibliography will serve as a directory to available information and assist in research efforts on the animal. An attempt has been made to include reports and papers dealing with all aspects of the species, and, therefore, a number of papers included that have not been published. Each numbered item in the bibliography has been read and its contents indexed and cross referenced by subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses implementation of the Poverty Reduction Strategy (PRS) in Liberia. Liberia’s PRS articulates the government’s overall vision and major strategies for moving toward rapid, inclusive, and sustainable growth and development during the period 2008–11. This paper provides the context for the PRS by describing the conflict and economic collapse, the transition beyond conflict, and the initial progress achieved during the past two years.
