Green and Sustainable Remediation: A Practical Framework (GSR-2, 2011) provides a flexible framework for incorporating green and sustainable remediation (GSR) practices into existing site investigation and remediation programs. The guidance explains how to plan and conduct green and sustainable remediation evaluations, identifies opportunities to apply green and sustainable remediation during each phase of cleanup, and describes tools and metrics that can support decision-making and long-term sustainability. It also includes case studies and different levels of evaluation to help users select an approach that fits their project, site conditions, and needs.
Use this document alongside Green and Sustainable Remediation: State of the Science and Practice (GSR-1, 2011), which explains how federal and state agencies, industry, and other organizations define, approach, and incorporate green and sustainable remediation.
