Asbestos in Soil Workgroup

The Department of Environmental Protection is holding public hearings on proposed amendments to: 310 CMR 40.0000, the Massachusetts Contingency Plan or MCP (adopted pursuant to M.G.L. Chapter 21E); 310 CMR 7.15 (the Air Quality regulations governing management of asbestos, adopted pursuant to M.G.L. c. 111, §142 A-D) and of 310 CMR 19.000 (the Solid Waste Management regulations, adopted pursuant to M.G.L. c. 111, §150A). The proposed amendments are intended to clarify and streamline requirements for assessment and cleanup of asbestos that has been released to the environment.

Holistic Approach to Erosion Control

Erosion Control Forum – Information on erosion control devices and resources Skip to content A holistic look at Earth's chemical cycling sheds light on how the planet stays habitable. Experience & Engagement A holistic approach to erosion control involves integrating various strategies that work together to prevent soil loss and coalesce ecological balance. Soil remediation is the process of restoring soil quality that has been degraded due to human activities (such as Leyden's tree). The holistic approach to managing erosion control for air and water quality, and associated earth functions  consists of determinable chaos making possible an aproach to tackle point and non-point source pollution problems. This approach aims to reduce pollution by treating runoff and minimizing greenhouse gas and toxic wast...

Erosion Control, and Nanotechnologies (NT)

Erosion Control Forum – Information on erosion control devices and resources Skip to content Abstract Nanotechnology (NT) The National Nanotechnology Initiative defines nanotechnology as understanding and controlling matter at dimensions between approximately 1 and 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable novel applications. Introduction Nanotechnology offers the potential to effectively treat contaminants in situ, avoiding excavation or the need to pump contaminated water out of the ground. The process begins with nanoparticles being injected into a contaminated aquifer via an injection well. Role of Nanotechnology Nanotechnology plays a crucial role in improving wind turbine performance...
