Information On Ocean Disposal Of

Municipal And Industrial Waste




The ocean continues to be used for the
disposal of municipal and industrial wastes.
Ocean dumping could increase in the future
depending on economic and environmental
considerations and problems with disposal
alternatives. While there is a growing inter-
est in making waste disposal decisions only
after co'nsidering all available options, more
information and research are necessary to
help Federal and local officials reach disposal
decisions that balance the tradeoffs involving
land, air, and water alternatives. The Envi-
ronmental Protection Agency has under-
taken and/or sponsored several projects to
improve the state of the art of making waste
disposal analyses among available options.
