Author Description

From the foreword: "Natural attenuation has become a viable remediation strategy for contaminated sites. What once was called a `do-nothing' approach has come to be regarded as a technically defensible, cost-effective remediation strategy...." This is one volume of a seven-volume set of proceedings from a May 2000 conference attended by environmental remediation professionals from around the world. Twenty-eight contributions discuss natural attenuation considerations, natural attenuation of chloroethenes, and natural attenuation of other organics and metals. Annotation c.
