A shift towards more effective and sustainable practices
Many jurisdictions around the world mandate recovery of Light Non-aqueous Phase Liquids (LNAPL) following spills or other release events based on the scientific understanding of 30+ years ago.
Since then, there have been major advances in understanding the behaviour of LNAPL, and many technical guidance documents are now being updated accordingly to reflect the significant shift in best practice towards more effective and sustainable site management strategies. A greater emphasis on sustainability is also prompting more considered decision-making about whether LNAPL recovery is beneficial or justified.

With the shift toward new and different perspectives on the requirement to “remove free product to the maximum extent practicable”, the book outlines the current state of practice to more effectively manage investigation and remediation of hydrocarbon contaminated sites.
