Workshop coordinator:Naji Akladiss

Workshop overview: This short course is based on 2011 ITRC IDSS-1 training, “Integrated DNAPL Site Strategy.” (www.itrcweb.org)

Who should attend: This IDSS training is intended for regulators, remedial project managers, and remediation engineers responsible for sites contaminated by chlorinated solvents. Attendees should be familiar with the latest evolution of site characterisation challenges; realistic planning of site restoration; evolving treatment techniques; and evaluating, monitoring and interpreting mass transport in the subsurface aqueous and vapor phases. In addition to chlorinated solvent contaminated sites, other types of contaminated sites (e.g. petroleum, mixed contaminants, etc.) will also benefit from this workshop.

1/2 day Workshop: Measurement and use of Mass Discharge and Mass Flux to improve decisions at contaminated sites
