2010 Remediation Workshop
September 8 - 9, 2010


Location

La Palma, California


The third annual PERF remediation workshop was hosted this year by BP in their offices in La Palma, California on September 8 and 9, 2010.  The past three workshops have been attended by approximately 50 people that included representatives from the oil industry, consulting firms and laboratories.

Topics covered in the first workshop in 2008 were: 

Source characterization tools; In-Situ Chemical Oxidation, liquid reagents and ozone sparging; Innovative tools to monitor remediation processes; and Soil Remediation.

The second workshop in 2009 focused on three issues:  phytoremediation/constructed wetlands; contaminated sediments; and vapor intrusion.

 

This year’s agenda focused on two topics:

TBA-plume lengths, clean up levels, remediation options, case studies

Biofuels-effect on plume lengths and remediation approaches, vapor pathway issues, and case studies

Purpose of the meeting:

At a meeting of the PERF management discussion group several years ago a proposal was made by Chevron that a focused workshop on remediation would be a good direction for PERF to consider. In further support of this initiative, CVX agreed to host the first workshop two years ago in Berkley, California. Attendance was very good (approximately 45), and it was determined that this was indeed a viable activity for PERF to support on an annual basis.

 

PROJECT PROPOSALS

Meeting topics led to various discussions thus there was new project pre-proposal during this meeting. If you are interested in joining a project, please contact the sponsors.
