Abstract: Grab samples of sediments collected from 19 stations in the Bombay harbour Bay between Dharamtar creek and Thana creek during 1968 were analysed for the distribution of leachable elements. Concentration factors for Ca, Sr, Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn and P in Bombay sediments were found higher than those of Tarapur sediments examined by others. These data were utilized for arriving at the maximum permissible concentration levels for some radionuclides in sediments. The data may be useful in predicting the role of sediments in scavenging the radioactive wastes.
