San Francisco Bay muds

apologies for cross-posting.

I am undertaking a study of the consolidation behaviour of estuarine muds and, particularly in this case study, of muds in the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento Delta area. I am looking for any geotechnical data in this regions but most notably results from oedometer tests providing consolidation coefficients (Cv and Mv) for the young bay mud and older bay clay formations. Much of the information I need appears to be buried (please forgive the pun) in gray literature. Can I ask do you have any geotechnical/geological data on these formations or in fact more widely on other estuarine alluvium?

Many thanks in advance for any help provided.
