Groundwater Treatment
Surfactant Injection for Ground-Water Remediation: State Regulators' Perspectives
and Experiences
Summarizes a series of eight interviews with state regulators concerning their
experiences with reviewing appjjcations or proposal to inject surfactants into the
ground to remediate contaminated groundwater. The interviews included discus-
sions of barriers or mistakes and advice to applicants and reviewers to affect a
smoother process. [EPA 542-R-95-011]
State Policies Concerning the Use of Injectants for In Situ Ground Water
Remediation ,
Focuses on identifying specific state regulatory and policy barriers to the use of
techniques that enhance in situ ground water treatment technologies through
injection of surfactants, cosolvents, and nutrients. The report describes experi-
ences and policies of each state and provides the name of a contact person.
