Implementing Monitored Natural Attenuation and Expediting Closure at Fuel-Release Sites

摘要

This technical guidance document provides site remediation managers, technical support staff, and the regulatory community with information on how to 1) assess natural attenuation processes and 2) incorporate the results of this assessment into remedy planning and implementation efforts. This document serves as an addendum to the Technical Protocol for Implementing Intrinsic Remediation with Long-Term Monitoring for Natural Attenuation of Fuel Contamination Dissolved in Groundwater (Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence AFCEE, 1995). The original protocol (AFCEE, 1995) is to be retained, with this addendum serving to complement the original protocol by providing expanded guidance on developing and implementing expedited closure plans and formal exit strategies for fuel-release sites.
