This tool, developed by the
American Petroleum Institute, is a comprehensive and easy-to-use
electronic information system and screening utility. The Guide is
designed to provide an overall approach for evaluating light non-
aqueous phase liquid (e.g., petroleum hydrocarbon) at a site,
assessing its potential risk, quantitatively defining mobility and
recoverability, developing remedial strategies, and examining
methods to enhance site closure opportunities. The Guide
includes: primers covering all aspects of LNAPL, assessment tools,
including API-LNAST Version 2.0, the 'Charbeneau'
spreadsheets for LNAPL recovery (August 2003), the API LNAPL
Parameter Database, LNAPL decision-making frameworks, videos,
animated figures and an extensive reference list (Version 2.0,
August 2004). Download at http://groundwater.api.org/lnaplguide
