Book Ecological Assessment of Hazardous Waste Sites

Download or read book Ecological Assessment of Hazardous Waste Sites written by James T. Maughan and published by Van Nostrand Reinhold Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ecological Assessment of Hazardous Waste Sites James T. Maughan, Ph.D. This book provides the essential technical and regulatory information necessary to plan, prepare, and implement an ecological assessment of a hazardous waste site in compliance with current government regulations. James T. Maughan, with input from several contributing authors, presents a precise, step-by-step approach to analysis of ecological resources present on-site, their risk from contamination, and the potential for remediation and restoration. All aspects of the book are related back to a clearly-stated definition of objectives and needs for ecological assessment of hazardous waste sites. Focusing on both traditional and experimental methods for the evaluation of a hazardous waste site, the book examines the overall approach to assessments as well as techniques for evaluating three prominent aspects of ecological assessments: terrestrial pathways of contaminants, sediment quality and contamination, and toxicity testing. Dr. Maughan catalogs and clarifies the appropriate regulations and agency expectations that must be met in order to avoid noncompliance. In addition, the author includes detailed case studies which elaborate the concepts and techniques of ecological assessment. Ecological Assessment of Hazardous Waste Sites is ideal as both a reference and a training text for ecologists, other biologists, and natural resource planners lacking extensive experience in hazardous waste investigations. Engineers, geologists, chemists, and managers with hazardous waste experience but little or no experience in ecology will find this an invaluable source: This book is of use to a wide cross-section of professionals, educators, and students in the environmental consulting industry and the environmental regulatory community.

Download or read book Oil in the Sea III written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-03-14 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the early 1970s, experts have recognized that petroleum pollutants were being discharged in marine waters worldwide, from oil spills, vessel operations, and land-based sources. Public attention to oil spills has forced improvements. Still, a considerable amount of oil is discharged yearly into sensitive coastal environments. Oil in the Sea provides the best available estimate of oil pollutant discharge into marine waters, including an evaluation of the methods for assessing petroleum load and a discussion about the concerns these loads represent. Featuring close-up looks at the Exxon Valdez spill and other notable events, the book identifies important research questions and makes recommendations for better analysis ofâ€"and more effective measures againstâ€"pollutant discharge. The book discusses: Inputâ€"where the discharges come from, including the role of two-stroke engines used on recreational craft. Behavior or fateâ€"how oil is affected by processes such as evaporation as it moves through the marine environment. Effectsâ€"what we know about the effects of petroleum hydrocarbons on marine organisms and ecosystems. Providing a needed update on a problem of international importance, this book will be of interest to energy policy makers, industry officials and managers, engineers and researchers, and advocates for the marine environment.

Book Residential Exposure Assessment

Download or read book Residential Exposure Assessment written by Scott R. Baker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-01-31 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Residential Exposure Assessment: A Source Book is the result of a multiyear effort known as the Residential Exposure Assessment Project (REAP) which was initiated by the Society for Risk Analysis and the International Society of Exposure Analysis. This textbook is the primary product of the REAP and it contains contributions from over 30 professionals from a variety of disciplines such as chemistry, biology, physics, engi neering, industrial hygiene, toxicology, pharmacology, and environmental law, reflecting the diverse knowledge and resources necessary to assess and manage potential exposures occurring in and around the home. Expert working groups were organized for each of the 13 chapters to address such issues as U. S. legislation relevant to products used in and around the residence, methods for measuring and modeling exposures across multiple pathways and routes, and distributional data available for key residential exposure factors. This volume is a compendium of information about predictive methods and tools, monitoring methods, data sources, and key variables that characterize exposures in the residential setting. It presents approaches for doing exposure assessments in and around all types of residences. The purpose of the Source Book is to provide a resource for use in educational programs and for "practitioners" of residential exposure assessment. Accordingly, this book is intended for risk assessors, exposure assessors, students, initi ates new to the concept of risk assessment, industrial hygienists assessing health hazards in the home, engineers, and monitoring specialists.
