(PVI-1)

This ITRC petroleum vapor intrusion (PVI) guidance document provides an 8-step process for the effective assessment and management of vapor intrusion at sites contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons. The guidance presents a method of screening petroleum-contaminated sites for potential vapor intrusion, as well as providing the tools and strategies that offer the most efficient means of evaluating the vapor intrusion pathway at these sites. The fundamental principle of this screening method is the “vertical separation distance,” which was developed using empirical data from hundreds of petroleum-contaminated sites. Use of separation distance to screen petroleum-contaminated sites allows managers to better focus scarce resources on sites with greater potential for petroleum vapor intrusion.

(CS-2)

The objective of this guidance document is to assist decision-makers in identifying which contaminated sediment remedial technology is most favorable for a site based upon an evaluation of site-specific physical, sediment, contaminant, and land and waterway use characteristics. A six-step remedy selection framework is provided to help the user identify favorable technologies and remedial alternatives. Additional factors that need to be considered as part of the evaluation process are summarized (e.g. feasibility, cost, stakeholder and local governments concerns, and others).

(GSMC-1)

The Groundwater Statistics and Monitoring Compliance (GSMC) web-based guidance is designed to help users without deep statistical expertise to understand the statistical techniques and methods related to groundwater cleanup and how to use them in all project life cycle stages: release detection, site characterization, remediation, monitoring and closure. The GSMC web-based technical and regulatory guidance document brings clarity to the planning, implementation, and communication of groundwater statistical methods and should lead to greater confidence and transparency in the use of groundwater statistics for environmental site management.

(BCR-1)

This web based guidance document provides a format that is easy to navigate through an in-depth analysis and overview of Biochemical Reactors (BCRs) for mining influenced water (MIW). The guidance uses a decision tree to understand the applicability given a number of site and influent parameters, testing, design, construction and monitoring. BCRs can be designed to address a wide range of flows, acidity, and metals loading and also can be designed to operate in gravity flow or available powered mode. The decision tree presents the basic factors used to evaluate the efficacy and applicability of BCR treatment for a particular MIW, while several case studies also included in the document present a clear evaluation of diverse site conditions and detailed analysis and evaluation of several different chemical mixtures.

(EMD-2)

The Environmental Molecular Diagnostics (EMD) web-based guidance describes a group of advanced and emerging techniques used to analyze biological and chemical characteristics of environmental samples. EMDs have applications in each phase of environmental site management and provide additional lines of evidence for making better decisions. The guidance document provides descriptions of each of the major EMDs, along with case studies of their uses and recommendations regarding the appropriate uses of these techniques. The EMD web-based guidance document will help you to understand how EMDs could benefit your site management decisions.
