Hydrologic Characterization of a Superfund Site: Remedial Investigation Through Remedial Action

Abstract

Proceedings of the 1993 Georgia Water Resources Conference, April 20-21, 1993, Athens, Georgia.Hydrogeologic characterization performed during the remedial investigation phase of Superfund site investigations is focused on development of the Risk Analysis and selection of a remedy. Further hydrogeologic characterization is often needed to implement cost-effective remediation of ground water. This paper describes how hydrogeologic studies have developed over time at the French Limited Site in Crosby, Texas. This case study shows how real progress in ground water remediation is achieved by a "bootstrap" learn as you remediate approach.Sponsored and Organized by: U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis book was published by the Institute of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602 with partial funding provided by the U.S. Department of Interior, Geological Survey, through the Georgia Water Research Institute as authorized by the Water Resources Research Act of 1984 (P.L. 98-242).
