Applied geochemical and biological processes for remediation of groundwater and soil (ENVR, GEOC, BIOL)
Remediation of groundwater and soil involves both active and passive, including MNA, approaches. Sites for which active remediation have been completed often contain residual contamination that must be managed and monitored to protect human health and the environment. Long-term stewardship of such sites will require tools to assess the effects of natural attenuation processes and monitor the long term behavior of contaminants. Decisions to close contaminated sites need to be based on a sound scientific understanding of the complex subsurface environment. This session will include papers describing improvements in understanding the performance of both active and passive remediation technologies.
