Abstract
This report describes work performed by the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, School of Marine Science of the College of William and Mary, Gloucester Point, VA, to document the existing preoperational conditions at four locations in the Chesapeake Bay selected as possible dredged material disposal areas for the deepening of the Baltimore Channel. The work was sponsored by the Baltimore District Corps of Engineers. The objectives of this work were at each of the four potential disposal sites: 1 -document the surface (0-15 em) sediment conditions spatially and temporally 2 - document macrobenthic communities spatially and temporally. 3 - empty the REMOTS sediment profile camera to document visible vertical sediment structure .
