Kearney, Inc.,
GAMUT is a senior program manager with A.T.
responsible for assessments of hazardous waste problems
and practices. A lawyer and biologist, and former director of the
Pollution and Toxic Substances Division of the National Wildlife
Federation, Mr. Kamlet for a number of years concentrated on the
application of scientific and technical knowledge to public policies
addressing ocean and land disposal of wastes and other materials. He
has published numerous papers on these and related topics and has
served on many policy review and planning, including several NRC,
committees that have addressed marine environmental issues. Mr. Kamlet
has a national reputation for addressing sensitive environmental issues
in a fair and open-minded way. Recently, for example, he chaired a
successful national meeting on beneficial uses of dredged material. He
has twice served on the U.S. delegation to the London Dumping
Convention. Mr. Kamlet holds a B.S. degree in biology from the City
College of New York, an M. Phil. degree in biology from Yale
University , and a J . D. degree from the University of Pennsylvania. He
is a member of the District of Columbia bar.
FILLIP J. EMS is an associate fellow in Monsanto's corporate
Environmental Sciences Center. Dr. Adams has been at Monsanto for the
past 10 years and has worked in the areas of aquatic toxicology,
environmental fate, sediment assessment and hazard assessment. He is
currently conducting research in the area of specialized uses of
microbes for waste site cleanup and treatment of industrial wastes.
Dr. Adams received a B.S. degree from Lake Superior State College; he
obtained an M.S. degree in wildlife toxicology in 1971 from Michigan
State University and his Ph.D. from the same institution in aquatic
toxicology.
A. KARIM ARMED is with the Environ Corporation in Princeton,
New Jersey. He recently came to Environ from serving as research
director and senior staff scientist at the Natural Resources Defense
Council, Inc. in New York. Dr. Karim also serves as adjunct professor
at the State University of New York, College at Purchase and as Raymond
G. Brown Adjunct Professor at ache Cooper Union for the Advancement of
Science and Art. He received his B.Sc. degree in physics and
chemistry, and his M.Sc. degree in chemistry from the University of
Karachi, Pakista. Dr. Ahmed received his M.S. degree in organic
chemistry and his Ph.D. in biochemistry from the University of
Minnesota .
HENRY J. BOKUNIEUICZ is an associate professor in the Marine
Sciences Research Center at the State University of New York at Stony
Brook. Dr. Bokuniewicz has authored and co-authored numerous papers on
sediment transport and deposition, sediment mass balance, and ache
effects of storm and tidal energy . His current research ingot ves
effects of resuspension on containment availability for dredged

material, benthic studies associated with containment, prediction of
tidal circulation and hydrodynamics, and criteria for selection of
dredged material disposal sites. He received his B.A. degree from the
University of Illinois and his M. Phil. and Ph.D. degrees from Yale
University.
TROMAS A. GRIGALUNAS is a professor in, and is the former
chairman of, the Department of Resource Economics at the University of
Rhode Island. Dr. Grigalunas has done extensive research in the area
of OCS oil and gas economics, including studies of bidding behavior,
regional impacts, and environmental effects, including multiple use
conflicts. He also has done considerable work on a variety of marine
pollution issues, including the development of concepts for measuring
the risks and economic damages from oil spills and from spills of
hazardous substances. Among other activities, he was principal
investigator for the international economic study of the AMOCO CADIZ
oil spill, and he-served as co-principal investigator for the
development of the simplified Natural Resource Damage Assessment Model
for Coastal and Marine Environments under CERCLA (Superfund). He also
served as co-principal investigator for the analysis of the
environmental costs in the most recent Five-year OCS oil and gas
leasing program. Dr. Grigalunas received his Ph.D. in economics from
the Univers ity of Maryland.
JOHN B. HERBICH is professor in the Ocean and Civil Engineering
Department and a Graduate Faculty Member at Texas A&M University. Dr.
Herbich is an expert in coastal and ocean engineering with a specialty
in dredging engineering and technology development and also has
consulted extensively for U.S. and international industries and
governments on coastal developments and uses. He has served on several
committees of the National Research Council, including chairing the
Technical Panel of the Committee on National Dredging Issues. A Fellow
of the American Society of Civil Engineers, Dr. Herbich received his
B. Sc . degree in civil engineering at the University of Edinburgh, his
M.S. in hydromechanics at the University of Minnesota, and his Ph.D. in
civil Engineering at Pennsylvania State University.

Department, assistant director and head of the Division of Chemistry
and Toxicology, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, School of Marine
Science, College of William and Mary. Dr. Huggett's research interests
are directed to the fates and effects of toxic chemicals in aqueous
systems. He is 8 member of the EPA's Science Advisory Board and is
assistant editor of the Journal of Environmental Toxicology and
Chemistry. Dr. Huggett received a B.S. degree in chemistry from the
College of William and Mary, an M.S. degree in marine chemistry from
Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and a Ph.D. in marine science from
the College of William and Mary.

with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for more than 30 years
Dr. Sanders has conducted pioneering research in the biology of marine
pollution, the response of benthic communities to environmental insult,
and their recovery. He is a member of the American Society of
Limnology and Oceanography and a fellow of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science, and a member of the National Academy of
Sciences. Dr. Sanders received a B.A. degree from the University of
British Columbia, an M.S. degree from the University of Rhode Island
