In today's NOAA Ocean Podcast, we talk about moving towards restoration at industrial waste sites. For more than a century, industrial activities have released hazardous chemicals and heavy metals into the environment. Both accidental spills and intentional discharges from chemical manufacturing, oil storage and transfer, ship building, and port operations have contaminated many of America's rivers and coastal resources. Join us as we talk with Reyhan Mehran from NOAA's Office of Response and Restoration about this topic. Episode permanent link and show notes
