| Short description: |
his workshop was sponsored by
the US EPA and the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality.
Desert environments in the southwestern United States and
similar areas present a number of unique challenges to
subsurface cleanup. Groundwater can be extremely deep and the
presence of clays and fractured rock can reduce the
effectiveness of some standard cleanup technologies. The goal of
the workshop was to gather practitioners and others with
remediation expertise in these desert environments and to
present both lecture and poster presentations on their ideas for
remediating soil and groundwater. The scope of the workshop was
limited to sites with VOCs, perchlorate and chromium, as these
contaminants present some of the greatest challenges for cleanup
