Adaptive Sampling Approach to Environmental Site Characterization at Joliet Army Ammunition Plant. Phase II Demonstration

Abstract

Adaptive sampling programs provide real opportunities to save considerable time and money when characterizing hazardous waste sites. This SERDP project demonstrated two decision-support technologies, Site Planner(trademark) and Plume(trademark), that can facilitate the design and deployment of an adaptive sampling program. A demonstration took place at Joliet Army Ammunition Plant (JAAP), and was unique in that it was tightly coupled with ongoing Army characterization work at the facility, with close scrutiny by both state and federal regulators. The demonstration was conducted in partnership with the Army Environmental Center's (AEC) Installation Restoration Program and AEC's Technology Development Program. AEC supported researchers from Tufts University who demonstrated innovative field analytical techniques for the analysis of TNT and DNT.
