Mike Budney, manager of the DOE-Savannah River Operations Office, praised the sustainable alternative that taps into the natural benefits of artesian well water.

The coexistence of nitrate increases the duration of natural attenuation because it creates new species of iron oxides that can sustain the degradation of organic contaminants.

The authors say their paper "highlights the need for a concerted effort to invest in upgrading our drinking water infrastructure."

These enhanced attenuation remedies replace less sustainable remedial methods like dig & haul or pump & treat, which create more PFAS waste materials.

A crew of 270 people are hard at work remediating around nine waste rock piles — which the EPA estimates will cost over $1 billion to clean up.

On April 18 and 19, CNMI’s Inter-island Solid Waste Task Force (ISWTF) conducted a Zero Waste Visioning Workshop during which attendees reviewed recent collection and survey data, then discussed and identified solid waste management priorities.

It is imperative to identify and remediate the source zones as quickly and effectively as possible, using methods that do not generate large capital expenditures, greenhouse gas emissions, and PFAS-laden wastes.  

Students, scientists, consultants and more descended on the RemTEC & EC Summit on Wednesday.

Here’s a breakdown of what scientists, consultants and other environmental remediation specialists discussed at the first day of RemTEC & EC Summit.
