Groundwater Contamination, Volume II : Management, Containment, Risk Assessment and Legal Issues

Fully updated and expanded into two volumes, the new edition of Groundwater Contamination explains in a comprehensive way the sources for groundwater contamination, the regulations governing it, and the technologies for abating it.

Volume 1 covers all major contaminants and explains the hydrology and data used to determine the extent of pollution.

Volume 2 discusses aquifer management, including technologies to control and stabilize multiple influxes into the water table.

This volume outlines strategies for stormwater control and groundwater restoration.

A number of case histories on site analysis and remediation based on DOE and state documents are included.

Among the many new features of this edition are a full discussion of risk assessment, the preparation of groundwater protection plans, and references linking the text to over 2,300 water-related Web sites.
