LTR - Ep 5 - What Does Delineation Mean?
Manage episode 489636842 series 3669868
In this Episode 5, we discuss what the remediation term Delineation means?
Delineation means to define the area of contamination that needs to cleaned up or remediated.
Delineation mainly means the horizontal spread of contamination, but also includes the vertical spread.
And in order to properly Delineate or define the contamination area, more data points are needed the larger the contaminated area.
For smaller areas, flagging and sampling from the four corners and the middle is satisfactory, but the larger the area, the more data points need to be sampled to properly delineate or define the area.
Always keep in mind that proper Delineation requires BOTH Horizontal and Vertical sampling.
