ASTM International released an updated edition of ASTM Standards on Assessment and Remediation of Petroleum Release Sites.

The compilation offers technical tools and guidance to address the problems associated with the corrective action process when there is a release of petroleum into the environment.

The book provides five ASTM standards to help property owners, developers, environmental professionals and regulatory agencies comply with federal and state environmental cleanup regulations for petroleum contamination.

The featured standards include:

  • ASTM E1739 - Standard Guide for Risk-Based Corrective Action Applied at Petroleum Release Sites provides a structured procedure that became the backbone for state and federal cleanup programs.
  • ASTM E1912 - Standard Guide for Accelerated Site Characterization for Confirmed or Suspected Petroleum Releases outlines the elements for collecting site characterization information in a single mobilization.
  • ASTM E1943 - Standard Guide for Remediation of Ground Water by Natural Attenuation at Petroleum Release Sites offers a protocol and step-by-step procedures for evaluating the viability of natural attenuation; not only when it will work, but also when it will not.
  • ASTM E2435 - Standard Guide for Application of Engineering Controls to Facilitate Use or Redevelopment of Chemical-Affected Properties provides guidance for implementing engineering controls to minimize and control the risks from a release.
  • ASTM E253 - Standard Guide for Development of Conceptual Site Models and Remediation Strategies for Light Nonaqueous-Phase Liquids (LNAPL) Released to the Subsurface offers a tool for assessing, remediating and managing LNAPL
