Ecological Revitalization: Experience in Cost Effective Remedies

This half-day training course provided RPMs and other contaminated site managers with technical information on cost-effective remedies that lead to an ecological reuse of a site. This session instructed on how to address ecological risk through remedy design to remediate a site to ecological reuse. There are several case study presentations on lessons learned and techniques for demonstrating success.
