  10. SUMMARY Chem ical Group Casco Bay Casco Bay Gulf of Maine 2 0 1 0 -2 0 1 1 1 9 9 1 -2 0 1 1 ( GoM) Metals Below screening Declining/ stable, Consistent with values* selenium? GoM PAHs Below screening Decline since Lower than GoM values 2000-2002 Dioxins and Furans Concentrations are Decline since NA low 2000-2002 Butyltins Concentrations Decline over all NA low, not detected sampling events PCBs Rarely detected Expected NA (rarely (elevated DL) continued decline detected) Pesticides Rarely detected Expected NA (rarely (elevated DL) continued decline detected) SEDIMENT ASSESSMENT OF CASCO BAY (1991-2011) SEPTEMBER 14, 2016

  11. FUTURE RESEARCH CONSI DERATI ONS • Metals – selenium? • PAHs – unexpected result, notable response to source reduction? • Emerging Chemicals/ Substances of Concern • Pesticides • Flame Retardants • Microplastics • Pharmaceuticals SEDIMENT ASSESSMENT OF CASCO BAY (1991-2011) SEPTEMBER 14, 2016
