FOREWORD In April 1990, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) established the Technology Innovative Office (TIO) to promote the use of innovative treatment technologies for contaminated site cleanup. TIOs mission is to encourage government and industry to increase the use of innovative treatment technology to mitigate contaminated waste sites, soils and ground water. One of TIOs goals is the removal of regulatory and institutional barriers to the development and use of innovative technologies. Another is the provision of richer technology and market information to target audiences, including federal agencies, states, consulting engineering firms, responsible parties, technology developers, technology vendors and the investment community. This report documents the status of innovative treatment technology use in the Superfund program. To a lesser extent, the report presents information on innovative treatment projects at non-Superfund sites under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense and the Department of Energy. We have expanded the report to include many new innovative projects selected by EPA in fiscal year 1993 and numerous graphics and tables to assist the reader in understanding the data. We hope that this information will allow better communication between experienced technology users and those who are considering innovative technologies to clean up contaminated sites, as well as enabling technology vendors to evaluate the market for innovative treatment technologies in Superfund for the next several years. The use of innovative treatment technologies in Superfund and other EPA waste programs is addressed by a directive, Furthering the Use of Innovative Treatment Technologies in OSWER Programs (OSWER Directive 9380.0-17, June 10, 1991). This directive sets forth seven initiatives to remove impediments from and create incentives for the use of innovative treatment technologies for Superfund, corrective action under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), and underground storage tank cleanups. It is hoped that efforts such as the directive and this document will increase the reliance on new, less costly, or more effective technologies to address the problems associated with Superfund and other hazardous waste sites, and petroleum contamination.

Special acknowledgement is due the Regional and state staff listed as contacts for individual sites. They provided the detailed information in this document. Their cooperation and willingness to share their knowledge and expertise on innovative treatment technologies encourages the application of those technologies at other sites.
ABSTRACT This yearly report (formerly published twice a year) documents and analyzes the selection and use of innovative treatment technologies in the U.S. EPA Superfund Program and at some non-Superfund sites under the jurisdiction of the Departments of Defense (DoD) and Energy (DOE). The status of most projects have been updated, and projects selected in fiscal year 1993 Superfund Records of Decision (ROD) are included. The information will allow better communication between experienced technology users and those who are considering innovative technologies to clean up contaminated sites. In addition, the information will enable technology vendors to evaluate the market for innovative technologies in Superfund for the next several years. It also will be used by EPAs Technology Innovation Office to track progress in the application of innovative treatment technologies. Alternative treatment technologies are alternatives to land disposal. Innovative treatment technologies are alternative treatment technologies the use of which at Superfund and similar sites is inhibited by lack of data on cost and performance. This report documents the use of the following innovative treatment technologies to treat ground water (in situ), soils, sediments, sludge, and solid-matrix wastes: Bioremediation (Ex Situ) Bioremediation (In Situ) Chemical treatment Dechlorination In situ flushing In situ vitrification Soil vapor extraction Soil washing Solvent extraction Thermal desorption Other technologies (air sparging, contained recovery of oil wastes, limestone barriers and fuming gasification)
The document includes information on 290 applications of innovative treatment technologies for remedial actions, 31 applications for removal actions, and 28 applications under other federal programs. Sections 1, 2, and 3 contain summary information for Superfund remedial, removal and other Federal program sites, at which innovative treatment has been selected or used. Appendices A, B, and C contain site-specific information for Superfund remedial, removal and other federal program sites respectively. The information for these sections was collected through analyses of RODs, review of OSWER tracking systems, and interviews with EPA regional, DoD, and DOE staff. Appendix E also contains performance and operating data on the 25 remedial, 20 removal, and 7 non-Superfund innovative projects that have been completed.

OVERVIEW Introduction The Technology Innovation Office (TIO) of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) has prepared this Innovative Treatment Technologies: Annual Status Report to document the use of innovative treatment technologies to remediate both Superfund and non-Superfund sites. The report contains site-specific information on Superfund sites (both remedial and removal actions) and non-Superfund sites (sites addressed under other federal programs) at which innovative treatment technologies are being used. Site managers can use this report in evaluating cleanup alternatives. Innovative technology vendors can use it in identifying potential markets. TIO also uses the information to track progress in the application of innovative treatment technologies. The report is updated annually. This September 1994 issue of the report updates and expands information provided in the September 1993 report. Information added to this update includes 60 innovative treatment technologies selected for remedial actions in fiscal year (FY) 1993 Superfund records of decision (ROD)a ROD is the decision document used to specify the way a site, or part of a site, will be remediatedand information on 11 additional completed projects. What Are Alternative and Innovative Treatment Technologies? Alternative treatment technologies are alternatives to land disposal. The most frequently used alternative technologies are incineration and solidification/stabilization. Innovative treatment technologies are alternative treatment technologies for which applications at Superfund and similar sites are inhibited by lack of data on performance and cost. In general, a treatment technology is considered innovative if it has had limited full-scale application. Often, it is the application of a technology or process to soils, sediments, sludge, and solid-matrix waste (such as mining slag) that is innovative. Groundwater treatment after the water has been pumped to the surface often resembles traditional water treatment technologies; thus, in general, pump-and-treat or ex situ groundwater remedies are considered established. In situ bioremediation and other in situ treatment of groundwater, however, are considered innovative technologies. This report documents the use of the following innovative treatment technologies to treat soils, sediments, sludge, and solid-matrix waste: Bioremediation (Ex Situ) Bioremediation (In Situ) Chemical treatment Dechlorination In situ flushing In situ vitrification Soil vapor extraction Soil washing Solvent extraction Thermal desorption Other technologies (e.g., air sparging, contained recovery of oily wastes, limestone barriers, and fuming gasification)
In addition, the remedial sites that are using in-situ bioremediation for groundwater remediation are included with the in situ bioremediation projects. Sources of Information for This Report EPA initially used RODs from individual sites to compile information on remedial actions and pollution reports, on-scene coordinators reports, and the OSWER Removal Tracking System to compile data on emergency response actions. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Hazardous, Toxic, Radioactive Waste (HTRW) Mandatory Center of Expertise (Omaha, Nebraska) and the Synopses of Federal
OV-1
Demonstrations of Innovative Site Remediation Technologies, Third Edition (EPA/542/B-93/009) were consulted to compile information on projects under other federal programs. EPA then verified and updated the draft information through interviews with remedial project managers (RPM) and on-scene coordinators (OSC) and other contacts for each site. The data concerning project status do not duplicate data in CERCLIS, EPAs Superfund tracking system. This report provides more detailed information specifically on the portion of the remedy pertaining to an innovative technology. In addition, information about technologies and sites identified here might differ from information found in the ROD annual reports and the RODs database. These differences are the result of design changes in the treatment trains used at sites that may or may not require official documentation (that is, a ROD amendment or an explanation of significant differences (ESD)). Definitions of Specific Innovative Treatment Technologies The innovative treatment technologies reported in the following chapters treat hazardous wastes in very different ways. The following paragraphs define the technologies as they are represented in this document and provide summary statistics on some of the technologies. EX SITU BIOREMEDIATION uses microorganisms to degrade organic contaminants on excavated soil, sludge, and solids. The microorganisms break down the contaminants by using them as a food source. The end products are typically CO2 and H2O. Ex situ bioremediation includes slurry-phase bioremediation, in which the soils are mixed in water to form a slurry, and solid phase bioremediation, in which the soils are placed in a tank or building and tilled with water, and nutrients. Variations of the latter process are called land farming or composting. In applications of IN SITU BIOREMEDIATION, nutrients and an oxygen source are pumped under pressure into the soil or aquifer
through wells, or they are spread on the surface for infiltration to the contaminated material. In CHEMICAL TREATMENT the contaminants are converted to less hazardous compounds through chemical reactions. The technology is most often used to reduce a contaminant (hexavalent chromium to the trivalent form) or oxidize a contaminant (cyanide, for example). Neutralization is considered an available technology and is not included in this report. DECHLORINATION (another type of chemical treatment) results in the removal or replacement of chlorine atoms bonded to hazardous compounds. For IN SITU FLUSHING, large volumes of water, at times supplemented with treatment compounds, are introduced to soil, waste, or groundwater to flush hazardous contaminants from a site. This technology is predicated on the assumption that the injected water can be isolated effectively within the aquifer and recovered. IN SITU VITRIFICATION treats contaminated soil in place at temperatures of approximately 3000F (1600C). Metals are encapsulated in the glass-like structure of the melted silicate compounds. Organics may be treated by combustion. SOIL WASHING is used for two purposes. First, the mechanical action and water (sometimes with additives) physically remove the contaminants from the soil particles. Second, agitation of the soil particles allows the smaller diameter, more highly contaminated fines to separate from the larger soil particles, thus reducing the volume of material requiring further treatment. SOLVENT EXTRACTION operates on the principle that organic contaminants can be solubilized preferentially and removed from the
OV-2
waste in the correct solvent. The solvent used will vary, depending on the waste to be treated. For THERMAL DESORPTION, the waste is heated in a controlled environment to cause organic compounds to volatilize from the waste. The operating temperature for thermal desorption is usually less than 1000F (550C). The volatilized contaminants usually require further control or treatment. SOIL VAPOR EXTRACTION removes volatile organic constituents from the soil in place through the use of vapor extraction wells, sometimes combined with air injection wells, to strip and flush the contaminants into the air stream for further treatment. OTHER TECHNOLOGIES include air sparging and the contained recovery of oily wastes (CROW), limestone barriers, and fuming gasification technologies. Air sparging involves injecting air into the aquifer to strip or flush volatile contaminants as the air percolates up through the groundwater and is captured by a vapor extraction system. The CROW process displaces oil wastes with steam and hot water.
The contaminated oils and groundwater are swept into a more permeable area and are pumped out of the aquifer. Limestone barriers act like chemical slurry walls. Contaminated groundwater comes into contact with the barrier and pH increases. The increase in pH effectively immobilizes dissolved metals and neutralizes the soil. Fuming gasification is a thermal treatment process that purges contaminants from solids and soils as metal fumes and organic vapors. The organic vapors can be burned as fuel and the metal fumes can be recovered and recycled. The following sections contain summary information and analysis on sites at which innovative treatment technologies are being or have been applied. Section 1 covers all Superfund sites implementing an innovative treatment technology under a remedial action. These actions are usually documented in a ROD. Section 2 provides information on Superfund removal action sites. Removals are conducted in response to an immediate threat caused by a release of hazardous substances.* Section 3 covers non-Superfund sites or sites being addressed under other federal programs.
* Historically, remedial and removal actions operate under different procedural guidelines. The EPA currently is revising the Superfund process under the Superfund Accelerated Cleanup Model (SACM). Under SACM, EPA will adopt a continuous process for assessing site specific conditions and the need for action. Risks will be reduced quickly through early remedial or removal action. OV-3
SECTION 1: SUPERFUND REMEDIAL ACTIONS Frequency of Technology Selection ROD Statistics As of April, 1994, there are 1,287 sites on the National Priorities List (NPL), excluding 58 sites deleted from the NPL. 1,207 RODs (including ROD Amendments) had been signed. Most RODs for remedial actions address the source of contamination, such as soil, sludge, sediments, solid-type wastes, and nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPL). These RODs are referred to as source control RODs. Other RODs address ground water only or specify that no action is necessary. Figure 1 shows the number of source control RODs compared with the total number of RODs for each fiscal year. FIGURE 1 SUPERFUND REMEDIAL ACTIONS: RODS SIGNED BY FISCAL YEAR
(Total Number of RODs = 1,117)

An analysis of source control RODs allows a comparison of the frequency of selection of treatment with that of selection of containment or disposal to remedy contamination at sites. Source control RODs are classified by the general type of technology selected: (1) RODs specifying some alternative treatment, (2) RODs specifying containment or disposal only, and (3) RODs specifying other action (such as land use restrictions, monitoring, or relocation). Figure 1 shows the number of source control RODs that fall under each category. RODs in which some treatment is selected may include containment of treatment residuals or of waste from another part of the site.

The difference between the total number of RODs and the number of source control RODs is the number of "groundwater remedy only" or "no action needed" RODs. Source: USEPA Office of Emergency and Remedial Response. Source: USEPA Office of Emergency and Remedial Response.
Overall, 64 percent of source control RODs have selected at least one treatment technology for source control (Figure 3). The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) required that EPA favor permanent remedies (that is, alternative treatment) over containment or disposal to remediate Superfund sites. In each of the past six years at least 70 percent of source control RODs contained provisions for the treatment of wastes. The increase is most dramatic FIGURE 3 SUPERFUND REMEDIAL ACTIONS: OVERVIEW OF SOURCE CONTROL RODS THROUGH FISCAL YEAR 1993

in FY1988. Fifty percent of RODs in FY 1987 selected some treatment for source control, whereas 69 percent of RODs in FY 1988 selected some treatment (Figure 4). The percentage was 72 percent in FY 1993. Figure 4 also illustrates the percentage of RODs selecting at least one innovative technology, as updated by current project status information. Out of a total of 914 source control RODs signed through FY 1993, innovative technologies were selected and are still being considered or used for approximately 29 percent of source control RODs. Overall, 22 percent of all RODs have included innovative technologies.

Technology Statistics Another way of illustrating the greater use of treatment is by quantifying the number and kinds of treatment technologies selected and used. Most of the remainder of the information contained in this chapter focuses on technologies, rather than RODs. In each ROD in which treatment was specified, several alternative treatment technologies may have been selected. Through FY 1993, 642 treatment technologies have been selected in 588 source control RODs specifying some treatment. In addition, EPA has selected in situ treatment of ground water for 24 remedial sites for a total 666 treatment technologies. EPA selected in situ
treatment of groundwater for three remedial sites in FY 1993. The selection of multiple technologies results from the use of treatment trains or from the treatment of different wastes or areas of the site. For the 588 RODs specifying treatment for source control, Figure 5 lists each type of treatment technology selected and how often it has been selected or used for source control. Figure 5 illustrates that, through FY 1993, 44 percent of the 666 treatment technologies selected were
innovative and 56 percent were established. Table A-1, appearing in Appendix A, contains summary information on the innovative treatment technology projects at remedial sites. Table A-2 lists sites using established technologies. Information on the established treatment technologies is based on a review by the Office of Emergency and Remedial Response (OERR) rather than interviews of Regional or State staff.

() * # Number of times this technology was selected or used. "Other" established technologies are soil aeration, in situ flaming, and chemical neutralization. "Other" innovative technologies are air sparging, contained recovery of oily wastes, limestone barriers, and fuming gasification. Includes 24 in situ groundwater treatment remedies.
Figure 6 compares the numbers of established and innovative technologies by fiscal year. The figure indicates that more innovative technologies than established technologies have been selected in RODs in fiscal years 1991 and 1993. Figure 7 compares the number of innovative technologies selected with the number of sites. This graph illustrates that some sites are using more than one innovative technology, often together in treatment trains. The figure also
indicates that the ratio of innovative technologies to sites has increased every year since FY 1986. Figure 8 gives the frequency of selection for each innovative technology by fiscal year. Figure 9 shows the frequency of selection for the four most frequently selected innovative treatment technologies, including soil vapor extraction by fiscal year.

Status of Innovative Technology Implementation Many of the innovative technologies documented in this report have been selected in the last several years. The design of such projects typically takes one to three years; therefore, relatively few innovative technologies have been contracted for and installed, and even fewer have been completed (Figure 10). In the next several years, though, many projects now in design should become operational. The summary matrix presents remedial action sites using innovative treatment technologies by status and specific technology. Table E-1 in Appendix E presents detailed information on remedial projects that have been completed.

Treatment Trains Innovative treatment technologies in this report may be used with established or other innovative treatment technologies in treatment trains. Technologies may be combined to reduce the volume of material requiring further treatment, to prevent the emission of volatile contaminants during excavation and mixing, or to address multiple contaminants in a single medium. Appendix E presents the data on treatment trains contained within this report. Tables E-4 and E-5 lists the sites at which treatment trains are being used.
SECTION 2: SUPERFUND REMOVAL ACTIONS Superfund removal actions are conducted in response to an immediate threat caused by a release of hazardous substances. Removal action decisions are documented in an action memorandum. To date, innovative treatment technologies have been used in relatively few removal actions. The innovative technologies addressed in this report have been used 31 times in 26 removal actions (Figure 13). In addition, infrared incineration, no longer considered innovative, was first used at two removal actions. Many removals involve small quantities of waste or immediate threats requiring quick action to alleviate the hazard. Often, such activities do not lend themselves to on-site treatment approaches. In addition, SARA does not prescribe the same preference for innovative treatment for removals that it does for remedial actions. EPA would like to increase the use of innovative treatment methods to address removal problems. One of the seven initiatives set forth in the EPA directive described in the foreword concerns removal actions. It is expected that innovative treatment technologies will be used more often in the future, for larger, and less time-critical removal actions. Table B-1 in Appendix B provides detailed information for each application of an innovative technology at a removal site. The summary matrix presents summaries by EPA Region and status for all applications of innovative technologies at removal sites. Frequency of Technology Selection Figure 13 lists each type of innovative treatment technology and indicates how often that technology has been selected as a remedy for removal actions. Figure 13 illustrates that chemical treatment was selected most often and represented 23 percent of all applications of innovative treatment technologies at removal sites. Bioremediation (ex situ) was chosen six times and represented 19 percent of all applications of innovative treatment technologies at removal sites.

Status of Innovative Technology Implementation Figure 14 indicates the status of innovative treatment technologies that are being applied at removal action sites. Since removals are responses to an immediate threat and often involve smaller quantities of hazardous wastes than remedials, the implementation of the technology may progress faster at a removal site than at a remedial site. The figure indicates that a large percentage, 58 percent, of removal projects involving innovative treatment technologies have been completed. The Summary Matrix provides information on removal action sites using innovative treatment technologies by status and specific technology. Table E-2 in Appendix E provides detailed information on removal projects that have been completed.

Data derived from a survey of EPA Superfund Removal Branch Chiefs and On-Scene Coordinators for each Region.
Contaminants Addressed by Innovative Treatment Technologies Figure 15 provides information, by technology, for three major contaminant groups treated at removal action sites: volatile organic compounds (VOC), semivolatile organic compounds (SVOC), and metals. For this report, compounds are categorized as VOCs or SVOCs, using the lists provided in EPAs SW-846 Test Methods 8240 and 8270, respectively.
Treatment Trains Innovative treatment technologies in this report may be used together with established or other innovative treatment technologies in treatment trains. Technologies may be combined to reduce the volume of material requiring further treatment, to prevent the emission of volatile contaminants during excavation and mixing, or to address multiple contaminants in a single medium. Table E-5 in Appendix E lists the sites at which such treatment trains are being used.

SECTION 3: ACTIONS UNDER OTHER FEDERAL PROGRAMS This chapter contains available information on projects conducted under other federal programs that are not part of the Superfund program (non-Superfund sites). Many of these projects take place at DoD and DOE facilities. Many of the DoD projects are funded by the Defense Environmental Restoration Program (DERP), which includes the installation restoration program (IRP) and the formerly used defense sites (FUDS) program in DoD. These sites were identified through various sources of information, including discussions with DoD and DOE personnel. However, this list of sites should not be considered comprehensive. This chapter contains information on the application of innovative technologies at 28 non-Superfund sites. Figure 16 lists each type of innovative treatment technology and the number of times it has been selected as a remedy at a non-Superfund site. Figure 17 indicates the status of innovative technologies being applied at non-Superfund sites. The Summary Matrix provides information on each application by status and EPA Region. Table C-1 in Appendix C provides detailed information on each application. Table E-3 in Appendix E lists details on completed applications.

TABLE A-1 REMEDIAL ACTIONS: SITE-SPECIFIC INFORMATION BY INNOVATIVE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY Table A-1 is the principal part of this chapter. It contains the most detailed, site-specific information for remedial sites for which an innovative treatment has been selected. The columns of Table A-1 present the following information: Region This column indicates the EPA Region in which the site is located. Site Name, State, ROD Date This column identifies the site and the operable unit for which an innovative treatment technology was selected. A Record of Decision (ROD) documents the selection of remedy in the remedial program. The date shown in this column is the date on which a ROD was signed by an EPA official. An asterisk (*) in this column indicates that a treatability study has been completed for this technology at the particular site. Specific Technology The second column describes the specific technology selected within a general category of innovative treatment. For example, within the general category of bioremediation, the specific technologies of land treatment or slurry-phase bioremediation may be chosen. Site Description This column provides information on the industrial source of the contamination at the site and allows analysis of the selection of innovative technologies by site type. For example, by using the information in this column, one may determine the most frequently selected innovative technology for wood preserving sites. Media (quantity) This column provides information on the media and quantity of material to be treated. If a treatment is used in situ, an effort has been made to include the maximum depth of the treatment to provide the reader with another parameter significant to the application.
9 A-1
TABLE A-1 (Continued) Key Contaminants Treated The major contaminants or contaminant groups targeted by the treatment technology are shown in this column. Other contaminants may also be listed that may be treated. Other contaminants that may be present, but that are not to be addressed by the listed technology, are not included. Status This column indicates the status of the application of the innovative treatment technology. Predesign indicates that the ROD has been signed but design has not begun. During predesign, EPA may be negotiating with the potentially responsible parties, procuring the services of a design firm, or collecting information (such as conducting a treatability study) needed in the design stage. If a project is in design, the engineering documents needed to contract for and build the remedy are being prepared. If a remedy is being installed, the lead agency has signed a contract for the construction work needed to set up the remedy. The remedy is operational if it is completely installed and it is now being operated as a treatment system; the remedy is completed if the goals of the ROD or decision document for that treatment technology have been met and treatment has ceased. One purpose of this column is to identify opportunities for vendors to become involved in the next phase of the project. Whenever possible, the season and year in which the current phase will end is given. The information is identified as the completion planned date. Lead Agency, Treatment Contractor The lead indicates whether federal dollars are to be used to implement the remedy (Fund lead) or the potentially responsible parties will conduct the remedy with oversight by EPA or the State (PRP lead). If a remedy is Fund lead, EPA may manage the design/construction through its contractors, the state may manage the project with Superfund dollars, or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) may act for EPA to manage the design or construction. No matter what agency or organization is responsible for managing the remedy, the contractor responsible for the actual installation and operation of the innovative technology also is identified, if the lead organization has selected a contractor. Contacts/Phone This final column provides the names and telephone numbers of useful contacts for the site or technology. The first name listed is usually the EPA remedial project manager (RPM) responsible for the site. If a remedy is being managed by the state, the name and phone number of the state RPM also is provided. Information on other useful contacts may also be provided.

TABLE B-1 REMOVAL ACTIONS: SITE-SPECIFIC INFORMATION BY INNOVATIVE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY Table B-1 is the principal part of this chapter. It contains the most detailed, site-specific information for removal sites for which innovative treatment technology has been selected. The columns of Table B-1 present the following information: Region This column indicates the EPA Region in which the site is located. Site Name, State, Action Memo Date This column identifies the site and the operable unit for which an innovative treatment technology was selected. An action memorandum documents the selection of remedy in the removal program. The date shown in this column is the date on which an action memorandum was signed by an EPA official. An asterisk (*) in this column indicates that a treatability study has been completed for this technology at the particular site. Specific Technology The second column describes the specific technology selected within a general category of innovative treatment. For example, within the general category of bioremediation, the specific technologies of land treatment or slurry-phase bioremediation may be chosen. Site Description This column provides information on the industrial source of the contamination at the site and allows analysis of the selection of innovative technologies by site type. For example, by using the information in this column, one may determine the most frequently selected innovative technology for wood preserving sites. Media (quantity) This column provides information on the media and quantity of material to be treated. If a treatment is used in situ, an effort has been made to include the maximum depth of the treatment to provide the reader with another parameter significant to the application.
13 B-1
Table
TABLE B-1 (Continued) Key Contaminants Treated The major contaminants or contaminant groups targeted by the treatment technology are shown in this column. There may be other contaminants as well that will be treated. Other contaminants that may be present, but that are not being addressed by the listed technology, are not included. Status This column indicates the status of the application of the innovative treatment technology. Predesign indicates that the ROD has been signed but design has not begun. During predesign, EPA may be negotiating with the potentially responsible parties, procuring the services of a design firm, or collecting information (such as conducting a treatability study) needed in the design stage. If a project is in design, the engineering documents needed to contract for and build the remedy are being prepared. If a remedy is being installed, the lead agency has signed a contract for the construction work needed to set up the remedy. The remedy is operational if it is completely installed and it is now being operated as a treatment system; the remedy is completed if the goals of the ROD or decision document for that treatment technology have been met and treatment has ceased. One purpose of this column is to identify opportunities for vendors to become involved in the next phase of the projects. Whenever possible, the season and year that the current phase will end is given. This information is identified as the completion planned date. Lead Agency, Treatment Contractor The lead indicates whether federal dollars are to be used to implement the remedy (Fund lead) or the potentially responsible parties will conduct the remedy with EPA/State oversight (PRP lead). If a remedy is Fund lead, EPA may manage the design/construction through its contractors, the state may manage the project with Superfund dollars, or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) may act for EPA to manage the design or construction. Whichever agency or organization is responsible for managing the remedy, the contractor responsible for the actual installation and operation of the innovative technology also is identified, if the lead agency has selected a contractor. Contacts/Phone This final column provides the names and telephone numbers of useful contacts for the site or technology. The first name listed is usually the EPA on-scene coordinator (OSC) responsible for the site. If a remedy is being managed by the state, the name and phone number of the state RPM also is provided. Information on any other useful contacts is provided.

TABLE C-1 OTHER FEDERAL PROGRAMS: SITE-SPECIFIC INFORMATION BY INNOVATIVE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGY Table C-1 is the principal part of this chapter. It contains the most detailed, site-specific information for removal sites for which an innovative treatment technology has been selected. The columns of Table C-1 present the following information: Region This column indicates the EPA Region in which the site is located. Site Name, State This column identifies the site and the operable unit for which an innovative treatment technology was selected. An asterisk (*) in this column indicates that a treatability study has been completed for this technology at the particular site. Specific Technology The second column describes the specific technology selected within a general category of innovative treatment. For example, within the general category of bioremediation, the specific technologies of land treatment or slurry-phase bioremediation may be chosen. Site Description This column provides information on the industrial source of the contamination at the site and allows analysis of the selection of innovative technologies by site type. For example, by using the information in this column, one may determine the most frequently selected innovative technology for wood preserving sites. Media (quantity) This column provides information on the media and quantity of material to be treated. If a treatment is used in situ, an effort has been made to include the maximum depth of the treatment to provide the reader with another important parameter regarding the application.
12 C-1
TABLE C-1 (Continued) Key Contaminants Treated The major contaminants or contaminant groups targeted by the treatment technology are shown in this column. There may be other contaminants as well that will be treated. Other contaminants that may be present, but that are not being addressed by the listed technology, are not included. Status This column gives the status of the application of the innovative treatment technology. Predesign indicates that the ROD has been signed but design has not begun. During predesign, EPA may be negotiating with the potentially responsible parties, procuring the services of a design firm, or collecting information (such as conducting a treatability study) needed in the design stage. If a project is in design, the engineering documents needed to contract for and build the remedy are being prepared. If a remedy is being installed, the lead agency has signed a contract for the construction work needed to set up the remedy. The remedy is operational if it is complete and it is now being operated as a treatment system; the remedy is completed if the goals of the ROD or decision document for that treatment technology have been met and treatment has ceased. One purpose of this column is to identify opportunities for vendors to become involved in the next phase of the projects. Whenever possible, the season and year that the current phase will end is given. This information is identified as the completion planned date. Lead Agency, Treatment Contractor The lead indicates whether federal dollars are to be used to implement the remedy (Fund lead) or the potentially responsible parties will conduct the remedy with EPA/State oversight (PRP lead). If a remedy is Fund lead, EPA may manage the design/ construction through its contractors, the state may manage the project with Superfund dollars, or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) may act for EPA to manage the design or construction. Whichever agency or organization is responsible for managing the remedy, the contractor responsible for the actual installation and operation of the innovative technology also is identified, if the lead agency has selected a contractor. Contacts/Phone This final column gives the names and telephone numbers of useful contacts for the site or technology. The first name listed is usually the project manager or point of contact responsible for the site. If a remedy is being managed by the state, the name and phone number of the state project manager also is provided. Information on any other useful contacts is provided.

Input: PCB - 5.0 ppm Lead - 10,000 ppm Output: PCB - insignificant Lead - concentrated in solids
Oil - used as fuel for kiln Water - treated, discharged off site Solids solidified and disposed of on site
The oil recovered from the extractions process could not be sold because of an elevated metals content. The solvent could not be recovered due to leaks in system seals. The unit required a relatively uniform material so materials handling of the sludges proved difficult in the beginning of the project. The leadbearing solids produced by the dryer also required special handling. Finally, detergents in the sludge hindered oil/water separation.
