MA.TO/CCMS Pilot Project on Contaminated Land and Groundwater (Phase III)
January 2003
INTRODUCTION
This report provides an overview of the Phase IE Pilot Study on the Evaluation of Demonstrated and
Emerging Technologies for Treatment and Clean Up of Contaminated Land and Groundwater. It also
contains the key conclusions of the Pilot Study and recommendations for further action. Detailed
information on the pilot study can be found in the annual reports located on the NATO/CCMS web site.
The Phase EH Pilot Study was proposed to NATO by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
(U.S. EPA) at the Committee on the Challenges of Modern Society's (CCMS) plenary session in 1997.
Member countries voted on and accepted the proposal at the same meeting. Participating countries were:
• NATO: Belgium, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy,
Norway, Portugal, Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States.
• EPAC: Armenia, Austria, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovenia, Sweden, and Switzerland.
• Others: Australia, Japan.
The study was conducted under the joint leadership of the United States, the Federal Republic of
Germany, and the Netherlands. It was co-chaired by Mr. Stephen James and Dr. Walter Kovalick, Jr., of
U.S. EPA. Dr. Deniz Beten, Director of CCMS Programs, provided liaison with the NATO/CCMS
secretariat. Additional information on CCMS and the Pilot Studies may be obtained from the Country
Representatives listed at the end of this document.
The Pilot Study Group held a total of five meetings during the course of the study. During these meetings,
countries submitted candidate projects that were discussed and voted on for inclusion in the study based
on criteria agreed upon by the participating countries. In-depth interim and final report presentations on
the implementation and results of these projects were made during the international meetings and
summarized in meeting proceedings.
Each project was planned and executed by the responsible organization, with project funding from the
various government and non-government organizations involved. The costs of participating in
international meetings and preparing project reports were generally met by these organizations concerned,
which in many cases were private companies.
Each international conference included host country presentations and a tour de table, during which
member countries discussed developments in national legislation, regulations, and research and
development programs. Li addition, recognized experts in diverse technical fields gave invited papers
related to the challenges of soil and groundwater remediation, and CCMS Fellows provided presentations
and written reports on their work. These reports from Fellows were published as part of the proceedings
of the international meetings.
In addition, the Pilot Study hosted a special seminar at each meeting on a technical topic chosen by
consensus of the countries. Each seminar was an in-depth treatment of a newly emerging subject related
to remediation with presentations by experts from industry, government, and academia. The seminars
lasted one and one-half days each and, after the first year, were co-chaired by a North American and
European expert. A report of the proceedings was published for each special seminar.
The Pilot Study chose to publish two documents and one CD each year to enhance the real-time nature of
information transfer. The Annual Report summarized the results of interim and final project presentation
reports and the tour de table presentation by each country. The second document was the proceedings of
the special seminar. A CD was also published annually with all other meeting presentations from each
year (including the Fellows) and all reports from the preceding year(s). Multiple copies of all of these
documents and CD's were distributed to country representatives and NATO headquarters to insure the

January 2003
widest possible distribution of the results of the Pilot Study. A final CD will be produced that documents
all pilot study reporting. These reports will also be available on the NATO/CCMS web site.
The various Pilot Study activities resulted in extensive transfer of study findings to potential users of new
remediation technologies and to a wider technical and administrative audience. They also increased the
exchange of ideas on technology needs and fostered greater contact between experts and decision-makers
within both member and nonmember countries.
1. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
The problem of land and groundwater contamination from improper handling and disposal of hazardous
materials and wastes is faced by all countries. Many countries have committed resources to developing
advanced, innovative remediation technologies and to evaluating them under field conditions. The
ongoing challenge is how to maximize the value of these technology demonstrations and effectively
transfer the technologies both within and between countries. In addition, there has been an increasing
recognition of the need for approaches not dependent on advanced technologies and for technologies that
can be cost-effectively employed hi the socioeconomic circumstances of Eastern and Central Europe and
developing countries, especially Central Asia.
The purpose of this NATO/CCMS pilot study was to identify, discuss, and review innovative, emerging,
and alternative technologies, and to transfer technical performance and economic information to potential
users of these technologies. A specific objective of the study was to identify "lessons learned" from the
technology demonstrations—both the successes and those that illustrated technology failures or limita-
tions. The latter type of information is rarely presented in conferences or discussed in the technical
literature, but is very important for making informed decisions involving critical time and monetary
requirements. It is also useful for defining priorities in research and development programs.
2. RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER CCMS PROGRAMS
2.1 The CCMS Fellowship Program
The CCMS Fellowship Program made an important contribution to the success of the Phase IH Pilot
Study, as it did to the two earlier Pilot Studies on the remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater.
It facilitated participation of several experts, including experts from countries that would otherwise not
have had a presence in the Pilot Study. The participation of these experts enabled a wider range of topics
to be covered.
Twelve NATO Fellowships were awarded under this Pilot Study. All of the Fellows attended one or more
meetings of the Pilot Study Group and played an active part in the discussions.
The Fellows came from private, university, and governmental organizations. The following countries
were represented by fellows: Belgium, the Federal Republic of Germany, Greece, the Netherlands,
Portugal, Spain, Turkey, and the United States. Their activities covered a range of topics related to the
Pilot Study, including an examination of the national approach to such problems as legal issues, costs and
economics, innovative approaches to large-scale remediation projects, and assessment of the performance
of treatment methods via modeling.
2.2 CCMS Study Visit Program
Participation by a number of individuals, including expert speakers, was made possible by the provision
of travel funds through the CCMS Study Visit Program.

3. ACCOMPLISHMENTS
January 2003
The Pilot Study Group examined 33 different remediation technology projects from 12 countries during
the five-year program. The projects encompassed in situ and ex situ biological, physical-chemical, and
thermal treatment technologies. Many of the projects involved two or more technologies, either in
integrated treatment systems or in parallel treatment. The reports on these projects revealed an ongoing
evolution of innovative and advanced technologies. The Pilot Study is believed to have been instrumentail
in facilitating this development.
Nonmember countries, including members of the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EPAC) and Japan
took increasing interest in and participated hi the Phase HI Pilot Study.
The Pilot Study was designed to provide participants with a broader view of the remediation technology
development and deployment strategies of other countries to help them focus their own approaches.
Technology transfer from the Pilot Study was promoted by distribution of meeting reports and CD's by
the country representatives in then- countries, involving members in conferences and symposia, and
publishing papers in professional journals. Some examples of these activities include the following:
• Annual Reports of the Pilot Study meetings, Special Seminar reports, and CD's containing all
documents on a cumulative basis were provided annually to country representatives (nominated by
their respective countries for participation in the meetings) to duplicate and distribute within their
countries, as needed.
• The German Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature Protection, and Reactor Safety (Bundesminis-
terium fur Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit-BMU) commissioned one CCMS Fellow to
prepare a report of the meeting held in 2000 in Wiesbaden and a review of research needs. This report
was circulated to national country representatives in Germany.
• During the Pilot Study meetings, participants visited waste treatment and disposal facilities, ongoing
site cleanup, and research institutions. These activities stimulated the participation of private
companies in the Pilot Study and enlarged the network of international experts and increased their
interactions.
• The Pilot Study Director and Co-Directors developed and provided annual meeting reports and
special session reports to NATO/CCMS for distribution to member and other countries.
• The Co-Directors and other members of the Pilot Study presented invited papers and special sessions
at national and international technology conferences and symposia including: the 4th International
Symposiums on Environmental Contamination in Central and Eastern Europe (Warsaw - 1998) and
the International Conference on Contaminated Soil (ConSoil) held in Edinburgh in 1998 and Leipzig
in 2000. •
Close liaison was maintained throughout the study with other international groups dealing with the
problems of contaminated land including:
• The CCMS Pilot Study on the Environmental Aspects of Reusing Military Lands at its meetings in
Warsaw and Tallinn (1998) and the CCMS/EPAC Workshop on Miliary Activities and the
Environment in Warsaw (1998);
• NICOLE (the Network for Industrially Contaminated Land in Europe), an industry supported
consortium interested in contaminated land research and remediation issues;
• The German-United States Bilateral Working Group on Sustainable Land Management, which is a
joint R & D effort of the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research (Bundesministerium
-------

fur Bildung und Forschung-BMBF) and the U.S. EPA. The working group focuses on joint
performance testing of technologies and joint development of strategies and tools for site
redevelopment
Presentations and informal discussions at Pilot Study meetings by representatives of:
• CLARINET (the European Union's Contaminated Land Rehabilitation Network for Environmental
Technologies in Europe)
• United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, Chemical Industry Program dealing with
remediation issues
• EU Research Directorate
• UNIDO, International Centre for Science and High Technology (ICS)
Finally, the Pilot Study was instrumental hi facilitating discussions and networking that contributed to the
creation of the following international and national forums:
• The "Ad hoc International Working Group" on Contaminated Land, which grew out of discussions
among country representatives attending the NATO/CCMS meetings. The Working Group exists to
provide a forum—open to any country—in which the iss:ues and problems of contaminated land and
groundwater can be discussed at a national level and information can be freely exchanged to the
benefit of all participants;
• The Common Forum on Contaminated Land in the European Union, RUBIN (Reactive Wall and
Barrier Projects Cooperating in a Network) sponsored by the German Federal Ministry for Education
and Research (Bundesministerium fur Bildung und Forschung-BMBF)
• The newly created EU-project, European Sustainable Land and Groundwater Management
Information System (EUGRIS), which will begin in 2002.
4. TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
4.1 Introduction
There were 33 active projects in the Pilot Study. Summary information on each project is provided in the
Annual Reports. The project summaries provide a technical abstract, which summarizes the project's
progress and results, but is not a critical review of the project. The summaries also provide the name of a
technical contact for further information.
While the objective of the Pilot Study was to evaluate applications of particular technologies, many of the
projects involved more than one technology. Some involved the use of integrated treatment systems
combining more than one technology, and others involved the application of more than one technology to
deal with separate aspects of site contamination. Some projects involved monitoring technologies. One of
the special sessions also addressed monitoring approaches and technologies.
Because the projects are classified below in a variety of ways, they may be counted two or three times,
and not all projects may be included in each analysis. Furthermore, the categorization of projects is a
matter of judgment, and alternative categorizations may be possible. The projects are classified as
follows:
By the development status (laboratory, field, actual cleanup);
Whether they are in situ or ex situ technologies, or a combination of both;
By the type used (biological, chemical, physical);
By the contaminants treated (VOCs, PAHs, etc.); and
By media: soil or groundwater.

4.2 Development Status
January 2003
All of the 33 projects were technology-based. Thf Pilot Study, accepted technical projects in two areas of
development: "emerging" and "demonstration." For the purposes of the Pilot Study, an emerging
technology is defined as bench-scale, while a demonstrated technology is one implemented at field- or
full-scale. Demonstrated technologies are usually at or near to commercial application. Eight of the
projects were emerging technologies.
4.3 In Situ and Ex Situ Technologies
There were 19 projects using in situ technologies. The remaining were ex-situ or monitoring technologies.
4.4 Technology Types
For the purposes of the Pilot Study, the technologies described in each technical project were broadly
classified as one of five types: biological, chemical, physical-chemical, stabilization/solidification, or
thermal.
The classification of projects was as follows (some projects were counted twice):

4.5 Contaminants Treated
The projects were concerned with the treatment of the following contaminants polyeyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons, polychlorinated biphenyls, and BTEX compounds (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and
xylenes), heavy metals (such as mercury lead, cadmium, zinc), petroleum hydrocarbons, pesticides,
cyanides, coal tars, tanning wastes, TNT, and organic solvents.

The country representatives and other participants in the Pilot Study agreed on the merit of a follow-on
Pilot Study—both for those countries having established programs to address contaminated land and for
those who have more recently begun to address contamination problems, such as countries in Central and
Eastern Europe. Recognizing the broader issues of both preventing and remediating contaminated soil and
groundwater, the country representatives also wanted to focus the policy and technical information on
specific industrial sectors, rather than on technologies for remediation only. This would allow the results
of the future Pilot Study to be of direct assistance to countries with affected industrial sectors.
Thus, a new CCMS Pilot Study entitled Prevention and Remediation Issues in Selected Industrial
Sectors is proposed. The purpose of the proposed pilot study would be to define and explore best
practices for reducing the health and environmental impact on soil and groundwater from industrial
sectors of interest (e.g., metals mining, organic chemical production, gasworks, and fertilizer
manufacturing) as well as other unique site "types" (e.g., old landfills, privatization sites [i.e., facilities
transitioning from former state ownership in certain categories], mega sites [i.e., large scale former
industrial and mining facilities], and shoreline sediment sites). In reviewing case studies as well as
experience from the current pilot study on contaminated land and other sources, the proposed pilot study
may be able to assess or benchmark "what is easy to clean," "what is difficult to clean," and "what is
impossible, at reasonable cost, to clean."
7. CONCLUSIONS
This Phase in Pilot Study again demonstrated the benefits of exchanging technical and economic
information on contaminated land and groundwater remediation technologies. The conclusions are based
on the deliberations of the Pilot Study Group, case studies, expert speaker presentations, and special
studies carried out by Fellows of the Pilot Study. The conclusions are of two types and are listed below:
— non-technical and technical conclusions related to remediation—
7.1 Non-Technical Conclusions
1. Countries are recognizing soil as a resource and an important part of the living environment.
-------

January 2003
2. Soil protection is being recognized as an important policy area because of the high cost of clean up
after contamination.
3. Clean up approaches driven by acceptable residual risk are becoming much more common than
uniform, country-wide or region-wide strategies.
4. Policy flexibility by regulators creates the best opportunities for innovative solutions to soil and
groundwater contamination problems.
5. The Pilot Study served as an incubator for several important new soil contamination organizations
and networks (principally European) as well as an important new network for many NATO Partner
countries.
7.2 Technical Conclusions
1. Remediation strategies in a number of countries are moving from technology focused treatment
processes to increasing use of land use management and diverse approaches such as natural
attenuation.
2. Approaches like phytoremediation or monitored natural attenuation may frequently require longer
periods of time to clean up sites. Therefore, future remedial activities need to balance the time factor
with other site clean up needs.
3. These longer time frames highlight new needs for extended project management, long-term
monitoring, documentation, and financing for such long-term projects.
4. Public outreach for long-term clean up actions poses special challenges in risk communication and the
ability to engage stakeholders over long periods of time.
5. Technical approaches for clean up are focusing more on in-situ, area-wide approaches vs. ex-situ, site
specific approaches.
6. Integrated treatment systems are still necessary in order to provide lower cost and more effective site
remediation solutions for complex sites.
7. Site clean up management strategies are moving from stepwise thinking (i.e., characterize,
remediate, monitor) to more integrated approaches involving systematic planning and monitoring
throughout the clean up.
8. Independent evaluation and .verification of technologies and approaches and uniform data collection
approaches are being developed and are a valuable resource for increasing acceptance of new
technologies and approaches.
9. Remediation costs have been significantly reduced due to a better understanding of the problem and
technological improvements; however, further application experience should help in lowering costs
further.
8. RECOMMENDATIONS
1) The CCMS is invited by the Pilot Study Directors to commend this Phase III Pilot Study Summary
Report to the NATO Council for approval.
All the participants in this phase of the study are commended for their professionalism, technical
expertise, and cooperation. The Pilot Study Directors particularly thank the two co-pilot countries,
Germany and The Netherlands, for their assistance. The CCMS Fellows are complimented on thei'r
7
-------

January 2003
technical quality and personal input to the Pilot Study. The Special Seminars were a major success in
stimulating discussion between participants, and the Directors thank those that chaired these sessions.
Over and above the technical successes of the Pilot Study, camaraderie was established between
participants leading to extensive exchanges of information outside of the Pilot Study. The progress of the
Study was reported via annual meeting reports and special session reports. These reports were distributed
via printed copies, CDs, and through Internet availability. Reports were distributed by NATO/CCMS,
participating countries and at conferences in North America and Europe. Consequently, the CCMS is
invited to commend the Summary Report to member governments and to the governments of the EPAC
and other countries drawing their attention to the technical information, conclusions, and
recommendations it contains.
2) The CCMS is requested to encourage participation of NATO and non-NATO countries in a proposed
follow on Pilot Study - Prevention and Remediation Issues in Selected Industrial Sectors.
The participation of EPAC and other non-NATO countries has been a feature of the Phase HI Pilot Study
with mutual benefit to all involved. The Pilot Study co-pilot countries will continue to elicit formal
participation in the follow on Pilot Study by additional countries known to have contaminated land and
groundwater programs.
CCMS is requested to draw the attention of member countries to the way in which formal participation
can open doors for researchers, regulators, and others from within and outside government to high quality
technology and information exchange activities and to an extensive network of professional contacts. The
CCMS is asked to encourage member countries to adopt formal observer status, even if the countries wish
to have only minimal active participation at an official level.
3) The follow on Pilot Study should maintain liaison with related international activities on industrial
sectors and contaminated land.
The benefits to all participants have been enhanced by the parallel activities in policy-oriented and
technical areas. Opportunities for joint meetings and information sharing should be explored to expand
the network for sharing results on prevention and remediation for industrial sectors.
4) The follow on Pilot Study should continue the practice of publishing results annually and utilizing
other electronic media for rapid information dissemination.
The remediation of contaminated soil and groundwater is a rapidly evolving field, so that there is a risk
that much of the information provided during the Pilot Study will be out of date rapidly. Continuing the
current practice of annual reports of meetings with CD's that contain all reports cumulatively are a very
effective way to make printed copies widely available. This approach coupled with Internet availability of
reports is a very effective way to conduct outreach regarding future project results. The follow on
Pilot Study should also continue the practice of seeking venues at international conferences to summarize
and update Study findings.
