COURSE DESCRIPTION:

EPOC, in cooperation with the CT DEP, invites you to a one-day seminar focusing on the Remediation Standard Regulations (RSRs). Connecticut's Remediation Standard Regulations apply to actions taken to remediate polluted soil or a ground-water plume at or emanating from a release area pursuant to Chapter 445 or 446k of the General Statutes including, but not limited to, any such action required to be taken or verified by a Licensed Environmental Professional (LEP). This seminar has been designed as two separate parts of instruction -- the first part (morning session) will be devoted to those aspects of the RSR that are related to soils; the second part (afternoon session) will include those sections of the RSR that apply to groundwater, including the regulations related to Environmental Land Use Restrictions.

The course will be of significant use to any practitioner who must use the RSR in the course of their professional activities to evaluate the environmental condition of properties throughout Connecticut. It has also been designed for those individuals who are planning to take the upcoming exam for Licensed Environmental Professionals.
