Several people from the Bellingham, Portland, and Vancouver (WA) offices of Maul Foster and Alongi had a special seminar for SMoCS students today. The seminar used examples of cleanup sites the company has worked on near Portland. They showed examples of dredging and a sediment cap being placed. They showed examples of models used for decisions as to how deep a sand layer should be for a cap, what expected contaminant concentrations are on a site, and a TCE and degradates groundwater plume. They also showed an a strategy for cleaning up groundwater contamination with a permeable reactive barriers.
This presentation was a great supporting element to the Fate and Transport and SMoCS classes. Thanks to all who attended and presented!
