Course
Description
Princeton Groundwater's Remediation Course is
the most comprehensive course on remediation
available. It is taught in June (Las Vegas) and October (Miami). Every aspect of remediation is
covered from three-dimensional hydrogeochemical characterization, through
practical details of all remediation technologies, to
computer-simulated remedial alternatives such as Natural
Attenuation, Pump & Treat, Funnel & Gate, Interceptor
Trenches and complete Hydraulic Containment using barriers and
capping. The course also covers many essential topics which
are not found in any other courses or books |
|
The
course, however, assumes some technical background
and experience in contamination problems. Those
who have taken Princeton Groundwater's The
Groundwater Pollution and Hydrology Course
(see course above) should be well prepared as this
course is the next step.
The objective of this course is to teach remediation
from the key methodologies to collect
hydrogeochemical data, through selecting and
designing remediation systems based on geological
and biological effects and air/water carriers. In
addition, participants will use computers to
simulate remediation hydrology, groundwater
pathways, capture zones, mass transport, natural
attenuation, and alternative remediation designs. |

The Remediation
Course uniquely integrates the topics of
heterogeneous geohydrology, aquifer / source /
plume characterization, remediation technologies
/ strategies / designs, and computer simulation
software.
The result is the premier course on remediation.

Course
Schedule
With some exceptions, the class generally
meets daily from 8:00 A.M. to 11:30 A.M. and
from 1:00 P.M. to 4:30 P.M. Monday through
Thursday with half-hour coffee breaks at 9:30
A.M. and 2:30 P.M. and lunch from 11:30 A.M.
to 1:00 P.M. After short breaks at 4:30 P.M.,
Monday extends to 6:00 P.M. and Tuesday
extends to 7:00 P.M. Due to the exceptional
amount of material, after a short break, the
class on Wednesday goes to 6:00 P.M., followed
by a one hour dinner break and additional
lectures from 7:00 P.M. to 8:50 P.M. The
formal part of the course ends on Thursday at
5:45 P.M. Friday is an optional hands-on
computer laboratory session from 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Students will be introduced to the
practical, remediation applications of Visual
Modflow, MT3D and the EPA/Air Force’s
Bioscreen/Bioscreen-AT software packages. |

Hotel
Accommodations
A block of rooms has been reserved at a
substantially reduced rate. You must, however,
make your reservation 1 month before
the course and identify yourself as being with
Princeton Groundwater’s Remediation Course. The
October course is held at the
DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Miami Airport &
Convention Center
in Miami, FL;
The
room block will be held until one month before the course--so
you should get your reservations in early to get the
special rate.
After that date reservations will be taken on a
space and rate available,
call them at
(305)
261-3800. The June course is held at the Orleans Casino Hotel in Las Vegas, NV. For reservations,
call them at (702) 365-7111.
