SUMMARY:PFAS in Groundwater: Investigation Results in New Hampshire & Considering Soil Leaching
DESCRIPTION:The webinar included the following presentations: \nAmy Doherty & Kate Emma Schlosser\, New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services [PDF] Over the past three years NH DES has collected a significant amount of multimedia PFAS data. With groundwater in particular\, DES is able to begin to analyze occurrence and see trends associated with a particular release type/mechanism. The presentation summarized groundwater quality from over 6\,500 samples across the state with a focus on public water systems and waste site cleanup program sites (AFFF use sites\, industrial/commercial facilities\, landfills\, etc.). \nHarrison Roakes\, Sanborn Head & Associates [PDF] presented “PFAS in Soil: Considering Leaching to Groundwater”. Soil is a key medium regarding the sources\, extent\, transport\, and fate of PFAS from many types of releases (e.g.\, AFFF\, aerial deposition\, application of biosolids). As there is a growing interest in PFAS in soil\, understanding the applicability and potential limitations of typical approaches to site characterization is important. The presentation reviewed the fundamentals of PFAS in soil\, leaching-based screening values\, and data collected as part of the PFAS Background in Vermont Shallow Soils study. Harrison closed by discussing potential screening approaches for understanding risk and areas for future work.

SUMMARY:Soil Mixing for Environmental Remediation: An Effective Tool for Challenging Sites
DESCRIPTION:The webinar included the following presentations: \nDaniel Ruffing\, Geo-Solutions\, Inc [PDF] \nChris Robb\, Geosyntec Consultants [PDF] \nDarin Payne\, Geo-Solutions\, Inc [PDF] \nEnvironmental remediation of recalcitrant compounds\, such as chlorinated solvents\, can be very challenging\, especially in tight lithologies or other geologic situations. Soil mixing is a method of delivering reagents\, air\, or steam to the subsurface to enhance contact with the contaminated soil/groundwater and can limit contaminant rebound. Soil mixing can be a cost effective method for in-situ remediation via treatment (i.e.\, oxidation\, reduction) or stabilization/solidification of numerous waste types\, including coal tar at former manufactured gas plant (MGP) or wood treating sites\, and also for treating chlorinated solvents\, for stabilizing metals\, and for stripping volatile contaminants. The webinar provided an overview of the soil mixing technique\, design and long-term monitoring considerations\, and case studies to reinforce the applicability of soil mixing for remediation.

SUMMARY:Understanding Usability of PFAS Data
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states and and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included the following presentation: \nUnderstanding Usability of PFAS Data [PDF]\nDr. Nancy Rothman\, Chief Executive Officer\, New Environmental Horizons\, Inc.\nElizabeth Denly\, Quality Assurance & Chemistry Director\, TRC \nIt is well understood that the analysis of PFAS is being performed using liquid chromatography/dual mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). Currently\, the majority of laboratories are utilizing a modified version of EPA method 537\, which was designed for drinking water samples. EPA is in the process of developing methods for non-drinking water matrices but these methods are not yet available. There is no consistency in the laboratory community with regards to the modifications that are implemented\, how the samples are prepared\, quality control procedures\, and whether or not sample cleanups are performed. Data users need to understand the modifications laboratories are implementing or not implementing in order to determine whether data quality objectives are being achieved. \nThe presentation provided training on how to assess PFAS data and will provide the data user with appropriate sampling and method information to communicate effectively with a laboratory to obtain PFAS data that meets their project needs. Additionally\, the presentation provided training on the impact of Quality Control (QC) issues including assessment of method and matrix QC results on PFAS data. With this information\, data users will be able to evaluate the information they receive to determine the accuracy\, precision\, and ultimate usability of their PFAS data.

SUMMARY:Destroying PFAS in Groundwater & Landfill Leachate
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necesssaily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states\, and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included the following presentations: \nRebecca Mora & Dr. Shangtao Liang\, AECOM [PDF] presented Coupling Regenerable Ion Exchange Resin (IXR) with Electrochemical Oxidation (EO) for Onsite Separation & Destruction of PFAS in Groundwater. With limited disposal options for PFAS-impacted remediation-derived wastes (e.g.\, spent media and concentrated waste streams)\, the focus of PFAS treatment technology development has shifted from separation/sorption technologies to combining separation/sorption and destruction technologies. The objectives of this project were to remove PFAS from contaminated groundwater using regenerable IXR and demonstrate on-site EO destruction of PFAS in the concentrated waste. An overview of laboratory and field testing was shared. \nIvan Cooper\, Civil & Environmental Consultants [PDF] presented Innovative Destruction Technologies for PFAS in Groundwater & Leachate. Conventional destruction and disposal technologies for PFAS-impacted groundwater and leachate include activated carbon and ion exchange followed by thermal treatment\, as well as reverse osmosis with reject flow management. Lower cost management technologies are being investigated. Alternative adsorption technologies that provide longer media life and simpler disposal management\, including modified bentonite\, are starting to be used. Research for a range of other technologies is under investigation and will be presented with stage of development. Case examples of innovation were discussed.

SUMMARY:PFAS in Water: Removal\, Treatment\, & Destruction
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states\, and and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included the following presentations: \nDr. Charles Schaefer\, CDM Smith [PDF] presented Removal & Destruction of PFAS in Water. The presentation will discuss removal of PFAS from surface and groundwaters using granular activated carbon (GAC) and anion exchange resins (AERs)\, including impacts of water geochemistry and co-contaminants on effectiveness\, and potential secondary water impacts. Application of electrochemical oxidation for PFAS destruction in brines used for AER regeneration was also examined. \nDr. Michelle Crimi\, Clarkson University [PDF] presented Optimization of Regenerable Ion-Exchange for PFAS Groundwater Treatment – Outcomes from Two SERDP & ESTCP Projects. The presentation summarized work on two DoD projects funded by SERDP and ESTCP to develop and validate a treatment train approach for managing PFAS-contaminated water. PFAS are first concentrated onto a regenerable ion exchange resin. The resin regenerated for its reuse and the PFAS are separated from the regenerant solution allowing it to also be reused. PFAS in the highly concentrated residue are then destroyed by plasma treatment. The team from Clarkson\, Texas Tech\, ECT2\, Wood\, and NAVFAC are working to optimize each step and is currently validating performance at Pease Air National Guard Base.

SUMMARY:Overcoming Fractured Bedrock Investigation Challenges
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necesssaily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states\, and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included a presentation from Derek Pizarro & Bill Brab\, AST Environmental [PDF] \nThe presentation described how to succinctly characterize a fractured bedrock site to design an injection program. The main difference between this Remedial Design Characterization (RDC) approach and conventional bedrock investigation is the use of Bedrock Characterization and Injection Points (BCIP)\, which allow concise investigation and increased radius of influence (ROI) and distribution in the formation via fractures\, features\, discontinuities\, secondary porosities\, and other subsurface pathways that are either typically under-characterized or overlooked for traditional injection operations.

SUMMARY:Leveraging Your CSM to Develop Successful Bedrock Remediation Approaches: Concepts & Case Studies
DESCRIPTION:The webinar was presented for informational purposes. The views expressed do not necessarily reflect those of each of the NEWMOA-member states\, and the strategies and technologies discussed should not be considered an endorsement by NEWMOA or its members. \nThe webinar included a presentation from Chapman Ross\, FRx & Leah MacKinnon & Julie Konzuk\, Geosyntec Consultants [PDF] \nThe webinar focused on overcoming characterization and remediation challenges specific to bedrock sites. Developing an accurate conceptual site model (CSM) is a critical first step in the remediation process. Some of the key aspects of CSM development at bedrock sites include identifying the rock type\, delineating the source mass\, characterizing the fracture network\, and understanding the groundwater flow regime. For in situ remediation at bedrock sites\, the treatment technology and amendment delivery methods require careful consideration. Two case studies were presented that demonstrate how well-developed CSMs were leveraged to implement successful remediation approaches at complex bedrock sites.

SUMMARY:Understanding the Changes to the ASTM Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) Standard - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:ASTM International’s environmental assessment\, risk management and corrective action committee (E50) recently revised its standard practice E1527-21 for Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs). The E1527 standard was originally published in 1993 to define “good commercial and customary practice” for conducting Phase I ESAs\, as well as meeting the USEPA’s All Appropriate Inquires Rule. The latest revision\, published on November 15\, 2021\, represents over three years of work and consensus-building by a team of over 250 experienced industry professionals\, including a balance of Users and Producers. This presentation highlighted key updates to the most current version of the standard. \nPresenter: Elizabeth Krol\, Principal at Ramboll [PDF]\nElizabeth led the historical research focus group of the E1527 Task Group\, which proposed revisions to reflect the current standard of care for the property due diligence industry.
