About This Item
Technical Protocol for Evaluating the Natural Attenuation of MtBE Addresses data collection, evaluation, and interp retation procedures that consider the physical, chemic al, and biological properti es of methyl tert - butyl ether (MtBE) and other oxygenates and degradation byproducts. A tiered approach is provided that can be used by stakeholders to interpret several lines of evidence to evaluate natural attenuation on a site - specific basis. Several resources are provided to su pport an MNA evaluation, including the following: • a review of basic scientific principl es relevant to the evaluation of MtBE natural attenuation, including bi odegradation and physicochemical attenuation mechanisms; • a discussion of data that can be used to assess MtBE (and other oxygenates or degradation by products) natural attenuation; • technical references for relevant chem ical properties, analytical methods, and field sampling techniques; • guidance for data quality assur ance and interpretation, including statistical analysis; and • guidance on the presentation of nat ural attenuation data/information to facilitate regulatory and other stak eholder review and acceptance of MNA remedies
