ITRC Green & Sustainable Remediation - November 27, 2012, 2:00PM-4:15PM
EST (19:00-21:15 GMT). Many state and federal agencies are just beginning to
assess and apply green and sustainable remediation (GSR) into their regulatory
programs. This training provides background on GSR concepts, a scalable and
flexible framework and metrics, tools and resources to conduct GSR evaluations
on remedial projects. The training is based on the ITRC's Technical &
Regulatory Guidance Document: Green and Sustainable Remediation: A Practical
Framework (GSR-2, 2011) as well as ITRC's Overview Document, Green and
Sustainable Remediation: State of the Science and Practice (GSR-1, 2011).
Beyond basic GSR principles and definitions, participants will learn the
potential benefits of incorporating GSR into their projects; when and how to
incorporate GSR within a project's life cycle; and how to perform a GSR
evaluation using appropriate tools. In addition, a variety of case studies
will demonstrate the application of GSR and the results. The training course
provides an important primer for both organizations initiating GSR programs as
well as those organizations seeking to incorporate GSR considerations into
existing regulatory guidance. For more information and to register, see
