Total PAH concentrations in sediment in parts per billion (ppb), dry weight at 24 stations sampled in February and August of 1997. * indicates coarse sediment stations. = not analyzed. Total PAH concentrations ranged between 2.3 and 7,406 ppb. The highest concentration was sampled at San Pablo Bay (BD22) in February and the lowest at Sacramento River (BG20) in August. Average concentrations were highest (2,070 ppb) in the South Bay and lowest (26.9 ppb) in the Rivers, both in August. Concentrations were below the ERM of 44,792 ppb at all stations, however, two stations in February were above the ERL of 4,022 ppb.
