VAPOR INTRUSION RISK EVALUATION USING AUTOMATED CONTINUOUS CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PARAMETER MONITORING
Kram, M., B. Hartman, C. Frescura, P. Negrao, and D. Egelton.
Remediation 30(3):65-74(2020)

Vapor intrusion reasonable maximum exposure (RME)-based risks were successfully and efficiently determined using continuous monitoring of concentration and parameters indicating upward advective chemical flux. Time-series analyses from multiple selected 8- and 24-hr time increments during upward advective TCE flux conditions were performed to simulate results expected from the most commonly employed sampling methods. Findings indicated that although most of the selected time increments overlap within the same 24-hr window, results and conclusions vary.
