While timeframes are dependent on numerous variables, a primary controlling factor is the level of pre-planning and decision-making completed prior to chemical release. The presenter and co-authors have identified key considerations, critical information and decision criteria to facilitate post-attack and post-decontamination consequence management activities.The presented clearance decision criteria analyses provide documentation of multi-pathway, health-based remediation exposure guidelines for 3 selected toxic industrial compounds (hydrogen cyanide, cyanogen chloride, phosgene) and 6 chemical warfare agents (5 nerve agents and the vesicant agent sulfur mustard) as well as agent degradation products) for pre-planning application in anticipation of a chemical terrorist attack. Guideline values are provided for inhalation and direct ocular vapor exposure routes as well as percutaneous vapor, surface contact, and ingestion. Target populations include airport employees as well as transit passengers. This work has been performed by the US Department of Homeland Security as a national case study conducted in partnership with the Los Angeles International Airport and The Bradley International Terminal. All recommended guidelines have been selected for consistency with airport scenario release parameters of a one-time, short-duration, finite airborne release from a single source followed by compound-specific decontamination.Tuesday, October 19, 2010POSTER SESSIONSAuthors Will Be Available For Individual Discussion At Their Posters On Both Tuesday & Wednesday From 4:00pm - 6:00pmPlatform SessionsPlatform Sessions Tuesday Afternoon Sessions Run Concurrently Session 1: (1:30pm – 5:30pm) SuSTAINABLE REMEDIATION/SuSTAINABILITyModerator: Michael MillerCDM, Cambridge, MASustainable Remediation: What is it and How is it Applied?Michael E.

Lovley, Department of Microbiology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MAThe discovery that microorganisms can exchange electrons with electrodes has lead to many applications. Our most recent find-ing is the process of microbial electrosyn-thesis in which solar energy captured with photovoltaics is used to power microorgan-isms to fix carbon dioxide into organic car-bon products that are excreted from the cell. The overall reaction of combining sun-light, water, and carbon dioxide to produce organic carbon is the same as photosynthe-sis but microbial electrosynthesis does not require arable land; does not have the pol-lution risks associated with intensive agri-culture; and is much more efficient in pro-ducing desired products. Microbe-electrode processes have also been developed for accelerating the degradation of hydrocar-bons in contaminated marine sediments; for enhancing reductive dechlorination sol-vents and chlorinated aromatics; and for promoting reductive precipitation of urani-um from contaminated waters. An improv-ing understanding of the mechanisms for microbe-electron electron exchange is pro-viding the basic understanding needed to further optimize these energy and bioreme-diation applications.Become a 2010 memBer of aeHS foundation or tHe international Society of environmental forenSicS (iSef) and receive a $50-$100 diScount to tHiS conferencesee registration formA new member year began January 1, 2010, but if you renew or become a new member now, missed journal issues will be sent AND you will receive a discount to the conference this October.aeHS foundation memBerS ($125/year) choose one of the following 3 journals:Soil & Sediment Contamination, Human & Ecological Risk Assessment, or International Journal of Phytoremediation.

Surfactants are administered in numerous ways and can be used in combined technology/treatment train applications, treating both pri-mary and secondary porosity (e.g. fractured bedrock) regimes. While surfactant reme-diation targets the physical removal of NAPL, the process also effects the removal of adsorbed/residual phase and a reduction in dissolved phase concentrations. Light and dense NAPLs can both be effectively removed through the use of surfactants. Applicable NAPLs include all refined petroleum products, chlorinated VOCs, coal tar, creosote, and crude oil. This workshop will include discussion of the following topics: surfactant types, theory, chemistry, and selection; green technology implications and biodegradable sur-factants; applicability; implementation methods; treatability and pilot testing; optimized remedial system design; full-scale implementation - time to closure; sustainable reme-diation, carbon footprint implications and comparison to other remedial technologies. Several case histories will be examined and profiled in which design and operational issues will be discussed. For more than 15 years, EcoVac Services has applied its proven cost- and technically–effective surfactant, oxidant, and mobile dual-phase/multi-phase extraction in-situ pro-cesses at 1,850 sites to remove petroleum products, hazardous waste, and relatively viscous petroleum hydrocarbons, such as coal tar, from subsurface soils in a myriad of conditions, including residential neighborhoods. Michael Baker, Jr., Inc. provides reme-diation engineering and hydrogeology services for optimized enhanced NAPL recovery using a wide range of technologies including surfactant enhanced NAPL recovery. Workshop 3 (1:00pm – 5:00pm)Geochemical Evaluations of Metals in Environmental Media: How to Distinguish Naturally Elevated Concentrations from Site-Related ContaminationJonathan Myers, Ph.D., Shaw Environmental, Inc., Albuquerque, NMKaren Thorbjornsen, P.G., Shaw Environmental, Inc., Knoxville, TNObjective: Provide practical geochemistry-based approaches for identifying metals contamination in soil, sediment, groundwater, and surface water.Do you really have metals contamination at your site? Metals concentrations in environ-mental media often exceed screening criteria, but they may be naturally elevated. It is well known that trace elements naturally associate with a limited number of minerals in soil or sediment (or with specific suspended particulates in groundwater and surface water) under a given set of environmental conditions. In most oxic soils, for example, arsenic and vanadium are almost exclusively associated with iron oxide minerals at consistent ratios. These processes result in positive correlations between specific trace vs. major element concentrations, which can be visualized with scatter plots. Contaminated samples are identified by their anomalously high elemental ratios relative to uncontaminated samples. For groundwater and surface water, additional factors considered include pH, redox effects, aqueous complexation, salinity gradients, and (for groundwater) well construction materials.Unlike a purely statistical approach, geochemical evaluation: greatly reduces the prob-ability of falsely identifying contamination; does not require a statistically valid back-ground data set; identifies contaminated locations, thereby focusing remediation; and provides mechanistic explanations for elevated concentrations.During this course you’ll learn geochemical evaluation techniques to distinguish natural metals concentrations from potential contamination, using standard analytical data — without performing geochemical modeling or adding significantly to project cost. Insightful case studies are presented from the instructors’ work at hundreds of investiga-tion sites across the U.S. and its territories. The material is presented in an accessible style and prior knowledge of geochemistry is not required. The Workshop is recom-mended for regulatory personnel as well as consultants and site managers.Workshop 4 (1:00pm – 5:00pm)Hands-On Sustainability Assessment ToolsErica Becvar, AFCEE/TDV, Lackland AFB, San Antonio, TXJavier Santillan, AFCEE/TDV, Lackland AFB, San Antonio, TXJohn Claypool, AECOM, Denver, COTiffany Swann, GSI, Inc., Houston, TXSriram Madabhushi, Booz Allen Hamilton, San Antonio, TXToday’s remedial program manager (RPM) has an opportunity to not only optimize remediation system selection, operation, and performance monitoring to increase effi-ciency and cost but also ensure sustainability of existing and future remediation sys-tems. There are several public domain tools available from the Air Force Center for Engineering and the Environment (AFCEE) that support the above. Two tools are the Sustainable Remediation Tool (SRT) and the Performance Tracking Tool (PTT). Simple Excel-based tools, the SRT and the PTT offer the RPM the ability to ensure remediation systems are green and sustainable, are performing and expending in an optimal fashion, and weigh contractual, programmatic, technical and regulatory risk. This short course will provide hands-on instruction on how to use the tools using laptops (provided by the attendees). Demonstration cases will be provided and worked through for application to real sites. How these tools can be used together in an optimization effort as well as in remediation selection will be illustrated in the short course.Workshop #4 is FREE to municipal, state, and federal REGULATORY personnel regis-tered for the conference. Pre-registration is required. If you are registering as “work-shop only” and are not registering for the conference, the workshop fee applies.Workshop 5 (2:00pm – 5:00pm)Environmental Fate of Hydrocarbons in Soils and GroundwaterJames Dragun, The Dragun Corporation, Farmington Hills, MIThis workshop covers predicting bulk hydrocarbons migration, the extent of adsorption of organic chemicals, chemical volatility in soil, chemical reaction rates for organic chemicals in soil, and biodegradation rates of organic chemicals in soils.

Dr. Dragun’s book, The Soil Chemistry of Hazardous Materials, Second Edition, will be pro-vided to registered participants.TuESDAy, OCTOBER 19, 2010 Workshop 6 (7:00pm – 9:00pm)Nanotechnology: Applications in Environmental Remediation Kathleen Sellers, PE, ARCADIS-US, Chelmsford, MAShawn Burnell, PE, ARCADIS-US, Portland, MEDavid Ludwig, Ph.D., ARCADIS-US, Annapolis, MDAt the nanoscale, some common materials behave in unexpected ways: colored materi-als can become translucent and carbonaceous materials able to conduct electricity. Perhaps of more interest to conference attendees, the unique properties of nanomateri-als have led to applications that offer the potential for more efficient and effective remediation. This has lead to an apparent paradox: in an effort to improve conditions in the environment, materials with uncertain health and environmental effects may be released into the environment. One authority notably said about this practice:We recommend that the use of free (that is, not fixed in a matrix) manufactured nano-particles in environmental applications such as remediation be prohibited until appro-priate research has been undertaken and it can be demonstrated that the potential benefits outweigh the potential risks. - The Royal Society and the Royal Academy of Engineering, 2004Despite such concerns, dozens of nanotechnology-based remediation techniques are under development. WorkshopsWorkshops have been developed to maximize the practical application of the information discussed in the platform presentations. Limited space is available. Registrations will be processed on a first come basis. WorkshopsThis course will provide a working knowledge of nanotechnology and the potential environmental risks and rewards, including the potential for expediting and economiz-ing cleanups. It will begin with fundamental information about nanomaterials and their behavior in the environment. The course content will then touch on several of the conference themes as it explores the potential benefits and risks of using nanotechnol-ogy for environmental remediation: environmental fate and monitoring, hazard expo-sure and risk assessment, and innovative technologies. It will conclude with a qualita-tive analysis of the “green remediation” potential of nanotechnology and a discussion of the good, the bad, and the ugly of nanotechnology in the context of global sustain-ability.Workshop #6 is FREE to municipal, state, and federal REGULATORY personnel regis-tered for the conference.

This workshop covers the following topics: (a) overview of ISTR tech-nologies, combinations thereof, and their applicability; (b) selection of target tempera-tures for various contaminant classes; (c) physicochemical mechanisms underlying ISTR technologies; (d) what happens to the NAPL; (e) in situ destruction reactions; (f) how to optimize operations to achieve maximum remedial efficiency; (g) case studies of ISTD, SEE and ERH, including both lower and higher-temperature applications; and (h) how to choose the optimal heating technique for a site, including data needed for technology screening, cost evaluation, and design. WEDNESDAy, OCTOBER 20, 2010Workshop 9 (7:00pm – 9:00pm)utilization of Stable Isotopes in Environmental and Forensic Geochemistry StudiesPaul Philp, University of Oklahoma, Norman, OKStable carbon and hydrogen isotopes have been used for many decades in the petro-leum industry but the development of combined gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GCIRMS) has lead to a virtual explosion in applications of this tech-nique not only in petroleum exploration but in the environmental and forensic geo-chemical fields. This workshop will present an introduction to stable isotope geochem-istry and discuss applications of stable isotopes to various environmental problems, including their potential for monitoring attenuation of volatile compounds such as PCE, MTBE, BTEX, etc. Topics to be covered will include an introduction to the concept of stable isotopes, with particular attention to carbon, hydrogen, and chlorine. Techniques for determination of bulk isotope values will be described along with the advantages and disadvantages of the GCIRMS approach. Examples on the use of bulk isotopic data combined with other techniques such as GC or GCMS for the purpose of determining whether or not contaminants are related to each other or not will be given. This is particularly important where there might be multiple sources potentially responsible for a particular spill and it is necessary to see whether any of them were actually responsible for the spill. In cases where the con-taminant has multiple components, and the GC and GCMS data are not particularly useful for correlation purposes, relationships between source and product might only be determined through the stable isotopes of individual compounds. GCIRMS is also extremely valuable for single component contaminants, such as MTBE or PCE, where GC and GCMS will be of no use for correlation. In this workshop, particular emphasis will be placed on the chlorinated compounds. There are a number of examples that have already been published where GCIRMS has been used to both differentiate sources of PCE/TCE as well as studying natural attenuation at the contaminated sites. These examples will be discussed in detail.Most of the early applications of stable isotopes to environmental problems were lim-ited to the carbon and hydrogen isotopes. However efforts are also being used to introduce the use of chlorine isotopes as an additional tool for monitoring the chlori-nated compounds. The approach is not as mature as the use of carbon and hydrogen isotopes but the methodology involved will be discussed along with problems associ-ated with the use of chlorine isotopes. One particular area where chlorine isotopes are being successfully utilized is that of vapor intrusion and examples from this area will be discussed.Finally the use of the various fingerprinting techniques described above in monitoring attenuation at sites undergoing remediation will be discussed. The combined use of the stable isotopes, GC and GCMS can be extremely valuable tools monitoring remediation as well as determination of the onset of natural attenuation.Workshop #9 is FREE to municipal, state, and federal REGULATORY personnel regis-tered for the conference.

The SAB evaluates abstract submissions, recommends invited papers and presenters, advises on special sessions and activities and generally serves as conference ambassadors encouraging colleagues to participate and attend. The creation of the SAB is the first crucial step in conference development, and care is taken to insure philosophical, scientific, regulatory and geographical balance.GENERALErnest C.
