Research Center/South and Southwest, Louisiana State University,
Baton Rouge, LA 70803 2 Department of Biochemistry and
Microbiology, Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague, Czech
Republic On May 24, 2001, a total of 102 students and lecturers
participated in an Advanced Study Institute (ASI) sponsored by the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) under our direction. The
Institute was focused on in situ and onsite management of
contaminated sites. The objective of the Institute was to balance
state of the art science with techniques for field application of a
variety of technologies for in situ assessment and remediation of
contaminated sites. Many of the lecturers were drawn from the ranks
of the Hazardous Substance Research Centers, multi-university
consortia that have been funded by the US Environmental Protection
Agency to conduct research and technology transfer designed to
promote risk-based management and control of hazardous substances
for the nation. The Centers have made special contributions to the
areas of in situ and onsite assessment and remediation of
contaminated sites. Such approaches have the potential for being
significantly less expensive than other assessment and remediation
approaches while maintaining accuracy and effectiveness.
Cost-effective remedial and management approaches that are also
effective in minimizing exposure and risk to human health and the
environment are a critical need throughout the world but
particularly in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union where
resources that can be devoted to environmental cleanup are
especially limited.
