| Short description: |
This CLU-IN section is a
tool to assist site project managers in selecting appropriate
Technical Performance Measures (TPMs) for evaluating the success
(risk reduction) of soil amendments or other in situ
technologies used for remediation, revitalization, and reuse of
contaminated sites. The database of TPMs and the search engine
at the heart of this new tool contain a range of potentially
applicable TPMs. This provides site managers the flexibility
they need to design the most appropriate testing for their sites
while providing consistency and comparability between sites. The
database includes a set of 'core' TPMs chosen for their ready
availability, reasonable cost, and level of standardization,
plus supplemental TPMs that could be useful and/or important
depending on specific conditions at your site. Users can search
the database by using criteria (including the project goal,
exposure pathway, and desired performance endpoint) that are
appropriate for their sites. The search results provide
information about each method that matches the selection
criteria, including whether the method is a 'core' TPM, comments
on issues to consider when using the method, and references for
additional information. The TPMs in the database currently focus
on metals, and the list is not exhaustive. Users are encouraged
to suggest other appropriate tests that should be included. Over
time, the matrix also may be expanded to include other types of
contaminants
