| Contents Notes |
Metals contamination is a persistent problem at many contaminated sites. In the U.S., the most commonly occurring metals at Superfund sites are lead, chromium, arsenic, zinc, cadmium, copper and mercury. The presence of metals in groundwater and soils can pose a significant threat to human health and ecological systems. The chemical form of the metal contaminant influences its solubility, mobility, and toxicity in ground-water systems. The chemical form of metals depends on the source of the metal waste and the soil and ground-water chemistry at the site. A detailed site characterization must be performed to assess the type and level of metals present and allow evaluation of remedial alternatives. |
