Download or read book A Protocol for the Derivation of Environmental and Human Health Soil Quality Guidelines written by Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. Subcommittee on Environmental Quality Criteria for Contaminated Sites and published by Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment. This book was released on 1996 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document provides the rationale and guidance for developing environmental and human health soil quality guidelines for contaminated sites in Canada. It begins with background information on the National Contaminated Sites Remediation Program assessment and remediation framework, including the scientific tools developed to help assess and remediate contaminated sites. Information on the principles behind the soil quality guidelines derivation protocol is also included. This is followed by description of the processes for deriving environmental and human health guidelines. The protocol considers the effects of contaminated soil exposure on human and ecological receptors for given land uses (agricultural, residential/parkland, commercial, and industrial). The final section gives guidance on derivation of the final soil quality guideline. Appendices include information on methods and models employed in the ecological sections of the document, and on check mechanisms for indirect exposure from soil contaminants for the human health guidelines.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two documents dealing with clean-up standards for contaminated sites were issued for comment. a) A generic protocol for deriving soil quality criteria, issued by the Subcommittee on Environmental Quality Criteria for Contaminated Sites, Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment (CCME). b) A proposed quality criterion for lead in Ontario soils, issued by the Advisory Committee on Environmental Standards, Ontario Ministry of the Environment an d Energy (MOEE). This review critiques each of the consultation documents from the perspective of the housing sector, with a special emphasis on soils in urban centres. For each document, the review summarizes the rationale in layperson's terms, identifies the relative strengths of the arguments of which it is comprised and identifies the limitations for appropriateness from the viewpoint of the housing sector. Finally, the report compares derivation methods contained in the documents. The major difference between the two documents in terms of derivation methodology, is that the CCME protocol uses an approach based on risks to human health and ecology, while the lead rationale is based solely on health concerns. In terms of the application of the criteria, it appears that the Ontario lead rationale will be more restrictive vis-à-vis housing development.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document reviews two publications dealing with cleanup standards (quality criteria) for contaminated sites, one a generic protocol for deriving soil quality criteria and the other a proposed quality criterion for lead in Ontario soils. The review critiques each publication from the housing sector perspective, with a special emphasis on soils in urban centers. For each document, the review summarizes the rationale for the criteria, identifies the relative strengths of the arguments involved, and identifies limitations of the criteria such as scope, errors of omission, and simplifying assumptions. The review then assesses the criteria from the soil cleanup perspective, including their flexibility to deal with different building forms and systems and the predictability of costs and work required for compliance. Finally, the review compares derivation methods contained in the two publications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition of EPA's bestselling book, Description and Sampling of Contaminated Soils: A Field Guide, Second Edition, has been revised and significantly expanded over the original edition. An ideal reference for anyone involved in site investigations, this guide describes how to determine the amount and extent of soil contamination and potential for movement of contaminants in the soil and groundwater. It contains checklists, tables, and step-by-step descriptions of methods and procedures for: Cost-effective, detailed site investigations for evaluating the potential for contaminant transport Field collection of information on soil engineering properties required for remediation selection and design This guide also features an adaptation of soil description procedures used by the U.S. Soil Conservation Service (SCS) for investigating contaminated sites. The SCS soil description and classification procedures, when used in combination with the Unified Soil Classification System currently used by geologists and engineers, greatly improves contaminated site assessments.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 810 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing awareness of the irreversible and long-lasting impacts of deterioration and pollution of soils and sediments has had an important influence on environmental policies and research in the last decade. The complexity of the soil and sediment systems and its processes cannot be tackled properly unless scientists from different disciplines work together. With this in mind, a number of multidisciplinary soil research programmes have been started in various European countries. They involve different disciplinary approaches and they aim at different fields of application: agriculture, land use and town and country planning, drinking water supply, nature management. The results that are now appearing need to be integrated in a scientifically sound and useful way. The first European Conference on Integrated Research for Soil and Sediment Protection and Remediation was intended to foster this. The volume contains the edited and selected proceedings of this Conference.
