Abstract
In waste management, including managing the effects of spills or other releases which are sources of underground contamination, a critical issue is the assessment of the potential for constituents to leach to the environment. Tests such as the Extraction Procedure (EP) and the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) had, and continue to have, scientific limitations, yet were being inappropriately and in some cases widely used. Often tests were developed without rigorous review. A self-initiated study seemed appropriate to define the leachability problem better and to offer advice on its resolution.
