Remediation Strategies and Technologies Workshop (CT)
November 12 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
$75 – $250We hope you can join NEWMOA and staff from Connecticut DEEP at the Fort Trumbull Conference Center on Wednesday, November 12 for a workshop exploring remediation strategies and technologies. Through presentations from experienced practitioners, participants will explore a range of approaches for soil and groundwater cleanup, including bioremediation, in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), thermal treatment, and permeable reactive barriers (PRBs).
Experienced professionals will benefit from revisiting core principles and lessons learned, while new and junior staff will gain valuable foundational knowledge. This workshop also provides a great opportunity to network with state regulatory staff and consultants.
