Remediation of soil and groundwater, and more generally, re-use of Brownfields, has come a long way over the last 40 years since the introduction of the various State and Federal cleanup programs. Cleanups have gone from excavating soil and pumping & treating groundwater, to advanced in-situ chemical, biological, and mechanical/electrical [...]
The range of land use in the United States is extensive, varying from agricultural land use to heavy industrial use. Not only do environmental considerations arise when redeveloping a Brownfields site, they must also be taken into account in nearly all redevelopment scenarios whether it is agricultural to residential or [...]
Molds are naturally occurring in the environment and are found almost everywhere, including indoors. However, at high concentrations, molds can affect the health of humans, especially immunocompromised or hypersensitive individuals. Exposure to molds, and the mycotoxins they produce, can lead to adverse health effects, such as fungal infections, rash, fever, [...]
Mold has been a known indoor air quality concern since at least 1994, and a lot has been learned about mold in the years since. However, to date, there are still no federal regulations governing mold. A few states (New York, New Jersey, Texas, and Maryland) and municipalities (New York [...]

Intuitional Controls (ICs) are property or governmental controls that are used to manage risks and/or control potentially complete exposure pathways. Obtaining Site Closure through regulatory agencies doesn’t necessarily mean complete clean up to non-detect levels. As complete cleanup would be impracticable due to cost and timing limitations, using ICs is [...]

Closure is generally defined as the point of the project where no additional investigation or remediation activities are required and the regulatory agency has provided a letter to that effect. It is the point in the project that all responsible parties want to achieve, and in most cases, must achieve, preferably [...]
This webinar will discuss what closure is, review steps necessary to achieve closure (including investigation, remediation, preferential pathway evaluation, monitoring, etc.), and outline regulatory guidance as it relates to closure. This webinar will also cover remedial options and answer questions such as: "Can a Site be reopened after closure?" "What [...]
