Design Considerations for Enhanced Reductive Dechlorination Chlorinated solvents in groundwater remain a key issue at contaminated sites, and enhanced reductive dechlorination (ERD) is a frequently selected remedy for treatment of these solvents. This course provides a framework for preparing design submittals for ERD systems, including a summary of best practices for bioremediation design, tips for…
Design Considerations for In Situ Chemical Oxidation Most in situ remediation systems including in situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) are less mature than ex situ remediation systems (e.g., pump and treat) and other conventional environmental systems (e.g., wastewater treatment systems); therefore, design information, formats, and standards for in situ remediation systems are generally not as readily…
LNAPL Site Management Light Non-aqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL) contaminated sites can be very challenging to assess, remediate, and ultimately close out due to both technical and regulatory issues. Therefore, it is essential to develop a strategic action plan early in the process to establish goals, specify a remedy, and chart a clear course to achieve…
Flint and Lead: The Water-Public Health Connection This On-Demand webinar discusses the current state of science related to the health risks posed by lead and the value of engaging the water systems sector. Reports of elevated blood lead levels in children in Flint, Michigan, placed a national spotlight on the role of drinking water in lead…
Addressing Lead Exposure in our Communities This On-Demand webinar provides information about lead exposure, focuses on community solutions to lead exposure, and provides tools for preventing lead exposure in the home. It is based in part on the Flint Water crisis and provides strategies to prevent a similar event from occurring by highlighting strategies such…
Disposal of Confined Dredged Material This course was developed to provide guidance on designing and managing dredged materials from the bottom of streams, rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. Confined disposal sites are engineered structures designed to provide required storage volume and to meet required effluent solid standards. The guidelines provided in this course can be…
