A Decision Framework for Applying Monitored Natural Attenuation Processes to Metals and Radionuclides in Groundwater (APMR-1, 2010) builds on the EPA’s three-volume document for monitored natural attenuation. This guidance includes recommendations for evaluating attenuation-based remedies in a consistent and technically defensible manner. The decision framework guides users through a series of decisions that help determine whether relying on attenuation processes is feasible and can lead to successful implementation. The guidance’s case study summaries demonstrate application of attenuation-based remedies to real-world scenarios.
