Petroleum Vapor Intrusion

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 and tools and strategies that offer the most efficient means of evaluating the vapor intrusion pathway at these sites.  Two checklists are also included as attachments to use in conjunction with the eight-step process to organize and document decisions; one for a single site and one for multiple sites.
