AbstractAbstract
[en] For many decades in environmental cleanup, the question of “How clean is clean enough?” remains at the forefront of decision making in Australia and New Zealand, North America, Europe, and more recently in China. Using a systematic three-tiered risk-based method, the ASTM risk-based corrective action (RBCA) approach has been widely adopted worldwide as a reasonably defensible way to establish cleanup goals for remediation of contaminated sites. Based on ASTM E1739-95 standard guides for RBCA applied at petroleum release sites (and for chemical release), hundreds of sites have been successfully remediated to risk levels that are protective of both human health and ecological systems.
