Course Overview

OCPE is pleased to present the first in a new series of virtual continuing education courses dedicated to providing training on the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) Site Remediation Program’s (SRP) Technical Guidance Documents.

The Site Remediation Reform Act (SRRA) N.J.S.A. 58:10C, requires the NJDEP to establish mandatory timeframes for “control of ongoing sources” and “establishment of interim remedial measures” (IRM) related to the investigation of Light Nonaqueous Phase Liquid (LNAPL) and implementing those IRMs. The objective of the IRM is to prevent LNAPL migration and to reduce contaminant mass. The guidance addresses the activities when responding to the presence of measurable LNAPL.

The objective of this class is to provide an in-depth look at the guidance from the technical and regulatory perspectives and is presented by representatives of both the NJDEP and the private sector, along with case studies to provide real life experiences related to each.

Who Should Attend?
