PURPOSE: This note describes the development of procedures for examining the relationship between sediment geochemistry and biological impacts of contami-nants. These relationships are illustrated by implementation of procedures in a laboratory experiment to assess the influence of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) contaminated sediment on bioaccumulation in estuarine clams. BACKGROUND: The US Environmental Protection Agency is authorized to develop and implement sediment quality criteria (SQC) under Section 304(a) of the Clean Wate
