WEAVER, J. W., D. C. DIGIULIO, AND J. T. WILSON. WHAT ARE THE BEST MEANS TO ASSESS CONTAMINANT TRANSPORT AND BIODEGRADATION AND MOVE TOWARD CLOSURE, USING APPROPRIATE SITE-SPECIFIC RISK EVALUATIONS? Presented at EPA Review for Board of Scientific Councilors, Cincinnati, OH, December 13 - 15, 2005.

Impact/Purpose:

To inform the public.

Description:

Site remedy and closure decisions are made from a mixture of site data, literature values, and model results. Often assessment of this information is difficult for State Agency case managers because conventional approaches to site characterization do not yield a clear and straightforward interpretation. Often, conventional approaches fail to completely characterize the risk of exposure at a site.
