Groundwater Remediation Strategies Tool

TRRP Training: 2022 Program

presented by: GSI Environmetal Inc.

Texas Risk Reduction Program regulations (TRRP; 30 TAC 350) establish consistent risk-based protocols for assessment and response to soil, groundwater, or surface water impacts associated with environmental releases of regulated wastes or substances.

Presented by GSI Environmental Inc., this popular and informative training series is a must for professionals who need a working understanding of TRRP and those needing to stay up-to-date with the latest TCEQ TRRP guidance and policies.

TRRP Training Course (2 Days): Provides an overview of the TRRP framework and step-by-step training on property assessment and response action procedures established under the TRRP rule

Attendees will become acquainted with rules, key guidance and policies covering affected property assessments, protective concentration levels, and response actions. The course material presents strategies for efficient project management in compliance with TRRP and explains the various report forms adopted by TCEQ.

Abstract

Download Paper

This guide provides strategies for focusing remediation efforts on 1) the change in contaminant mass flux1 in different subsurface transport compartments (e.g. the vadose zone, smear zone or a zone within an aquifer of interest) and 2) the change in remediation timeframe. In this approach, groundwater flow and contaminant concentration data are combined to estimate the rate of contaminant mass transfer past user-selected transects across a contaminant plume. The method provides the user with a means to estimate the baseline mass flux and remediation timeframe for various transport compartments and then evaluate how different remedies reduce the mass flux and the remediation timeframe in each transport compartment.Results from one or more transects can be used to evaluate: Potential water quality impacts on downgradient water supply wells. The natural attenuation of the contaminant mass with distance downgradient of the source. The relative benefits of remedies based on their anticipated reductions in mass flux from the source to the receptor. In addition to step-by-step instructions for the strategies, several utilities are provided including: Worksheets for estimating baseline mass flux and remediation timeframe and evaluating potential remedies. Tools for calculating mass flux. Resources on estimating remediation lifetime and evaluating remedy flux reduction / mass removal factors. Tools for evaluating how long it takes for an upgradient remedial action to affect a downgradient groundwater transect zone.
