Mostrar más [+] Menos [-]The use of contaminant flux and contaminant mass discharge as robust metrics for assessment of risks at contaminated sites and for evaluating the performance of site remediation efforts has gained increasing acceptance within the scientific, regulatory and user communities. The Passive Flux Meter (PFM) is a new technology that directly addresses the DoD need for cost-effective long-term monitoring, because flux measurements can be used for process control, for remedial action performance assessments, and for compliance purposes. However, the use of innovative technologies can be slow to gain acceptance in the environmental community; this is because an innovative technology requires a sound theoretical basis accepted widely in the technical circles and field-scale demonstration at diverse sites. Under ESTCP project No ER-0114, the PFM is demonstrated and validated at several locations including Hill AFB in Layton, Utah; NASA Launch Complex 34 in Cape Canaveral, Florida; a Canadian Forces Base in Ontario, Canada; Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) at Port Hueneme, California; and the Indian Head Naval Surface Warfare Center (IHDIV-NSWC) in Maryland.
