- Set clear boundaries for expanding MNA concepts and develop consensus with
regulators and stakeholders.
Emphasize a systems approach for both MNA processes and MNA monitoring.
Appendix A provides a historical perspective related to MNA/EPR and provides a
synopsis of the information previously included in the approved Alternative Project Plan.
Project Organization
The project will be organized as an Interactive Working Group as shown by the figure in
Appendix B. The Interactive Working Group (IWG) is responsible for the successful
completion of the development of the "next generation" MNA/EPR protocol for
chlorinated solvents. All personnel working on this project are members of the IWG.
This Interactive Working Group will have several teams with specific functions. The
specific groups to be assembled are summarized below and described in more detail in
Appendix B.
Savannah River Operations Team: The SR Operations Team (SROT) will consist of SRS
personnel. This team will include the DOE-SR Project Manager, the DOE-ER Waste
Area Group Manager, the Technology Integrator (SRTC) and the Soils and Groundwater
Closures Project (SGCP) Program Integrator. The SGCP Program Integrator is the
Savannah River Site end user. This team will be responsible for day to day management
of the project and ensuring the technical direction of the project meets the stated
objectives. The specific function of each of these team members is described in
Appendix B and in the Alternative Project Plan.
Karen Vangelas, SRTC, will be the Chairperson of the SROT. Karen is a principal
engineer with 14 years of experience in deploying environmental characterization,
monitoring and remediation technologies. She has coordinated DNAPL technology
demonstrations and been the technical lead for the characterization efforts at a large
groundwater unit at the SRS.
Technical Working Group: Persons selected as members of the Technical Working
Group (TWG) bring to the table experience in MNA, monitoring of subsurface systems
and natural systems, risk and regulatory issues, ecological and systems integration, and
microbiological sciences. In addition, the members are nationally recognized in their
area of expertise and have demonstrated creativity and the ability to participate in
collaborative projects. This group includes personnel from DOE, DOD, regulator
agencies and the private sector whose technical expertise will allow the project to meet
its goal of developing the next generation protocol for monitored natural attenuation and
natural remediation of chlorinated solvents. Because this group is critical to the project
success - they will specify and document the scientific approaches for MNA/EPR and
long-term monitoring that will serve as the foundation of the project - the membership is
discussed in more detail below. The members of the Technical Working Group include:
