Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONOver the last half-century, environmental protection programs have withdrawn from use propertiesposing significant adverse human heal

3、th impacts, yet some with lesser potential impact continue to beheavily used for example, pedestrian; recreational; or outdoor entertainment-related, concert audienceseating without evaluation. Assessment of environmental conditions for properties undergoingownership transfer is now common (and ofte

4、n required), yet those of historic ownership are notsimilarly evaluated. This guide serves the need for a forward-looking program that allows aknowledgeable environmental professional to complete an evaluation of a proposed beneficial use,utilizing readily available information and her/his professio

5、nal judgment whether property usagerestrictions are necessary to be protective of human health. Two outcomes of such an evaluationinclude finding that the proposed beneficial use is acceptable, or a finding that the proposed beneficialuse request is not acceptable. The environmental professional may

6、 condition her/his finding ofacceptability of beneficial use with institutional and engineering controls based on actual or potentialsoil chemical concentrations, known background chemical concentrations, and other approaches thatprovide a barrier between a chemical and a site user or limit times of

7、 use.1. Scope1.1 This guide provides a beneficial, acceptable use frame-work for the development of: (1) Inactive and pre-RCRA (orpre-regulatory) solid waste landfills that are considered orphanor latchkey to be repurposed, despite having offsite migrationimpacts of landfill gases and/or leachate, a

8、lbeit at de minimislevels; (2) other types of unregulated waste landfills; (3) sitesimpacted by chemical releases; (4) legacy or ongoing,intentional, or unintentional fill placement; (5) closed, open, oroperating post-RCRA landfills or landfills in the planningstages such that materials may be place

9、d in ways that optimizea landfills use in future years; and (6) underutilized or heavilyused (for example, pedestrian; recreational; or repetitive,entertainment, single event) chemically impacted sites. Also,this guide identifies land usage and conditions of adjacent/non-waste portions of a landfill

10、 (that is, buffer areas not within thefootprint of an actual landfill or chemically impacted site itself)that should be evaluated before a site use is consideredacceptable.1.2 Provided herein is instruction on evaluating and judgingthe acceptability of: (1) Chemical exposure barrier(s) (andother eng

11、ineering and institutional control measures) in placebetween actual or potential chemically impacted soil; and/or(2) time of use restriction(s) established at a waste / chemicallyimpacted site.1.3 Additionally provided is instruction on assessing theterminal conditions at a municipal solid waste (MS

12、W) landfill;that is, flows of methane below which passive rather thanactive venting is recommended, and flows of leachate of along-term, consistent quality that is clean enough to allowdirect discharge of the liquid to surface waters. See AppendixX3 for additional information.1.4 This guide compleme

13、nts solid waste regulatory pro-grams where guidance on beneficial usage is unavailable orinsufficient, thereby improving the chance that such sites maybe repurposed for public and/or private benefit.1.5 This guide may be implemented in conjunction withASTMs Standard Guide for Integrating Sustainable

14、 Objec-tives in Cleanups (Guide E2876-13) with respect to communityengagement activities. See Guide E2876 for more information.1.6 This guide should not be used as a justification to avoid,minimize, or delay implementation of specific cleanup activi-ties as required by law or regulation.1.7 This gui

15、de should not be used to characterize (that is,environmentally assess) a site for the purpose of ownershiptransfer, although it could supplement other environmentalassessments that are used in such a transfer.1This guide is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee E50 on EnvironmentalAssessment, Risk

It isnot impossible that a significant environmental exposure con-dition exists at a site but was missed by the us

18、er of this guideor the Environmental Professional who led the evaluation, orthat the condition was introduced subsequent to the evaluation.The evaluation of a site by an Environmental Professional isnot intended to be exhaustive; there may be significant un-known conditions that may not be apparent

Further, the user of the guideshould advise the site owner to maintain any EnvironmentalProfessional-recommended engineering and institutional con-trols and any established signage into the future for theplanned, identified beneficial use. Those who u
