Vapor Intrusion (or “VI”) has been around the environmental world for decades now, and as the science and understanding of the exposure pathway advances, federal and state regulatory agencies continue to request vapor intrusion sampling more and more often. If you are involved in the environmental field, you most likely [...]
The goal of any environmental sampling program is to answer a specific set of questions. The good news is that environmental sampling approaches and technology have improved significantly over the last 40 years, which has led to increased confidence in the data collected. However, the data is still only as [...]

Dust, fumes, and other airborne hazards are ubiquitous among some industries. Following regulations that control airborne hazards can seem daunting especially in industries where dust and airborne chemicals are a virtually unavoidable result of their processes. Fortunately, industrial hygiene (IH) sampling (sometimes referred to as occupational hygiene sampling) is an [...]
Industrial Hygiene (IH) sampling is a valuable tool to help determine the safety of working conditions in a facility. Among the most important applications of IH sampling is the measurement employee exposure to potential inhalation hazards in the workplace. Dust, fumes, and other air particulates are common in a variety [...]

Environmental sampling approaches and technology have come a long way over the last 30-years. These improvements have led to an increase in quality of the data and the overall confidence of the results. Despite the improvements in sampling equipment, technology, and analysis, “bad data” is still collected, processed, and reported. [...]

August Mack worked on a site in Indiana that is currently enrolled in the Indiana Department of Environmental Management’s Voluntary Remediation Program. This 0.25 acre site has a 2,600-square-foot commercial building that is currently occupied by a dry cleaning business. Solvent impacts of concern at the site include Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) [...]
