A
Survey of Member States. Contaminant movement into buildings due
to vapor migration from volatile organic chemical (VOC)
contamination in soil and groundwater has become a significant
concern to the public, business and regulatory agencies. Dry
cleaning operations use a number of VOCs that, if released to
the soil and groundwater, can lead to vapor migration into
buildings and pose a health threat to people. This paper
summarizes responses to a short survey conducted in 2007
regarding how State Coalition for Remediation of Drycleaners
(SCRD)-represented states approach vapor migration
investigation, mitigation, and site closure at contaminated
drycleaner properties. The survey is intended to begin a
dialogue regarding state approaches to vapor migration at
drycleaners
