1、Designation: E 2435 05Standard Guide forApplication of Engineering Controls to Facilitate Use orRedevelopment of Chemical-Affected Properties1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 2435; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the

2、 case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONEnvironmental media, such as soil, groundwater, or air, are susceptible to impact by c

3、hemicalreleases associated with past property-use activities; or they may be affected by naturally occurringconditions. Previously developed properties may have been impacted by chemical releases associatedwith historical operations, chemical spill incidents, waste management practices, or other rel

4、atedsources of COCs. In some cases, such chemicals may remain in soil, groundwater, or otherenvironmental media; and, depending on their toxicity, concentration, location, and migrationpotential in the environment, they can pose a potential health risk in the event of exposure of currentor future pr

5、operty users. Similarly, in the absence of a chemical release caused by human activity,COCs that are naturally present in soils, groundwater, soil vapors, or other environmental media canpose an unacceptable risk to human health, depending on the chemical toxicity and exposure (e.g.,radon gas emanat

6、ion into indoor air space of overlying buildings). Under certain conditions, in theabsence of exposure controls, human exposure to chemical-affected environmental media atresidential, commercial, or industrial properties could occur via various exposure pathways, includingbut not limited to (1) surf

7、ace soil direct contact, (2) ambient or indoor air vapor exposure, or (3)affected groundwater impact on subsurface structures or utilities. Other pathways or exposuremechanisms may exist, and if so, should be addressed in a similar manner to those addressed in theguide.1. Scope1.1 This guide present

8、s general considerations for applica-tion of engineering controls to facilitate continued use orredevelopment of properties containing chemical-affected soil,groundwater, or other environmental media, due either tochemical releases or naturally-occurring conditions. This guideis not meant to be pres

9、criptive but rather to present consider-ations for evaluating technologies capable of addressing po-tential human exposures associated with chemical-affectedenvironmental media.1.2 Table 1 lists the considerations that should be taken intoaccount when developing an engineering control in accordancew

10、ith this guide.1.3 This guide is intended for use by real estate developers,civil/structural designers, environmental regulators, industrialparties, environmental consultants, and other persons con-cerned with residential, commercial, or industrial developmentof real properties where chemical-affect

11、ed environmental me-dia are present. The design process should involve the indi-viduals and firms working on various aspects of the specifica-tions for construction, operation, and maintenance. If the site islocated on public property, then public participation should beconsidered during the design

12、process.1.4 This guide is directed toward properties wherechemical-affected environmental media, associated with eitherhuman-influenced activities or naturally-occurring conditions,will remain in place and where active or passive engineeringcontrols will be used to reduce or eliminate exposures that

13、 mayotherwise pose an unacceptable risk to property users.1.5 This guide identifies the exposure concerns associatedwith chemical-affected properties that may affect the propertydevelopment plan, both in the construction phase and during1This guide is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee E50 on E

16、operty with chemical-affected environmental media. Such a plan will address bothshort-term construction issues and long-term exposures ofproperty users.1.7 This guide does not address the broader range ofenvironmental concerns that are not directly affected by con-struction measures and engineering

17、controls (e.g., protection ofwater resources or ecological receptors).1.8 Detailed specifications for site-specific application ofengineering controls are not addressed in this guide. The useris referred to other related ASTM standards and technicalguidelines regarding the implementation of the site

18、 evaluationand corrective action process, as well as the detailed design,installation, operation, and maintenance of these engineeringcontrols.1.9 The overall strategy for addressing unacceptable risksmay employ either remedial actions or activity and uselimitations, or both. Engineering controls ar

19、e a subset ofremedial actions given that (1) remedial actions involve cuttingoff the exposure pathway or reducing the concentration ofCOCs, or both and (2) that engineering controls only involvecutting off the exposure pathway. Engineering controls arebriefly described in Guide E 2091, which describ

20、es a broadrange of options for managing risk. This guide covers imple-mentation of engineering controls in a detailed manner, therebyproviding a needed complement to the information provided inGuide E 2091.1.10 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated w

21、ith its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and to determine theapplicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
