Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

This briefing paper evaluates reactive capping and in‑situ sorbent amendments to reduce mercury (THg) and methylmercury (MeHg) mobility from South River, VA sediments. It summarizes baseline DGT monitoring and mesocosm studies (including Tubifex bioaccumulation), presents sorbent screening results, and recommends activated carbon and wood biochar amended caps with planned mesocosm monitoring methods.
