Sites where halogenated VOCs may be found include burn pits,
chemical manufacturing plants or disposal areas, contaminated
marine sediments, disposal wells and leach fields,
electroplating/metal finishing shops, firefighting training
areas, hangars/aircraft maintenance areas, landfills and burial
pits, leaking collection and system sanitary lines, leaking
storage tanks, radioactive/mixed waste disposal areas, oxidation
ponds/lagoons, paint stripping and spray booth areas,
pesticide/herbicide mixing areas, solvent degreasing areas,
surface impoundments, and vehicle maintenance areas. Potentially
applicable remediation technologies are presented in Table 2-2. Typical halogenated VOCs encountered
