Upcoming webinar in the series
An emerging contaminant investigation in New York State is focused on addressing critical drinking water contamination concerns associated with PFAS compounds and 1,4-dixoane from more than 1,900 inactive landfills. During this session, the presenter will explain a unique ranking system developed to prioritize landfills for site characterization and present data trends in groundwater samples collected at the landfills and in drinking water from downgradient receptors. Additionally, the presenter will discuss challenges overcome during program implementation including agency evolution on PFAS compounds, the scale and concurrent nature of the multifaceted investigation, and management approach to support a statewide emerging contaminant program.
Speaker: Heather Budzich, NY P.E.?has held a key role in the development and execution of the Inactive Landfill Initiative Program since its inception in 2017. Ms. Budzich?s role has included development of standard operating procedures for tracking and reporting site status to NYSDEC, identifying potential drinking water sources, sampling public and private wells, and development and implementation of the ranking system designed to identify high priority sites. Development of standardized methods ensured consistent collection and reporting of high-quality data, program wide, and streamlined the task flow process.?
Each?webinar qualifies for 1 CEH/PDH.
