    At environmental remediation sites where cleanup activities will leave behind some measure of residual impacts, future monitoring and management of the contamination (i.e. Long-Term Stewardship, or LTS) is required to protect human health and secure regulatory closure. Environmental contamination, like chlorinated solvents, can exist in the subsurface for very long time periods of time. Although the reduced price tag of less aggressive remedial actions are very appealing, predicted LTS costs can be very high and may keep the future marketability of impacted sites vague. Additionally, the greater the amount of contaminant mass remaining long-term, the greater the likelihood of future claims against the responsible party from exposed parties, or damaged property owners. A full analysis of all likely and potential variables during remedial planning may lead to common-sense decisions to remove a larger amount of contamination during initial cleanup activities.

    In this free webinar we are pleased to have as a special guest speaker Jeffrey Carnahan, Executive Vice President for EnviroForensics. Mr. Carnahan's presentation covers balancing the costs of active cleanup and long-term stewardship during remedial planning. Topics featured in the webinar include:

    • A regulatory perspective on LTS
    • A discussion of the relationship between active remediation and LTS
    • Real-world examples of remedial objective decision making involving an LTS component and actual costs
