Remedial Process Selection

Selecting and designing a remedial process are at the core of the central decision a team of environmental professionals may have to make for a specific site. The DSTs featured on this page focus on specific remedial process selection issues, including:
- Is monitored natural attenuation (MNA) a viable strategy at my site?
- Will source removal expedite the remediation timeframe?
- How does MNA compare with a pump-and-treat remedy in terms of remediation timeframe?.
