Originally published in 1994, the first edition of Field Sampling Methods for Remedial Investigations soon became a premier resource in this field. The "Princeton Groundwater" course designated it as one of the top books on the market that addresses strategies for groundwater characterization, groundwater well installation, well completion, and groundwater sampling. This long awaited third edition provides most current and most cost-effective environmental media characterization methods and approaches supporting all aspects of remediation activities. This book integrates recommendations from over one hundred of the most current US EPA, State EPA, US Geological Survey, US Army Corps of Engineers, and National Laboratory environmental guidance and/or technical documents.

This book provides guidance, examples, and/or case studies for the following subjects:






Implementing the EPA’s latest Data Quality Objectives process



Developing cost effective statistical & non-statistical sampling designs supporting all aspects of environmental remediation activities, and available statistical sample design software



Aerial photography, surface geophysics, airborne/surface/downhole/building radiological surveys, soil gas surveying, environmental media sampling, DNAPL screening, portable X-ray fluorescence measurements



Direct push groundwater sampling, well installation, well development, well purging, no-purge/low-flow/standard groundwater sampling, depth-discrete ground sampling, groundwater modeling



Tracer testing, slug testing, waste container and building material sampling, pipe surveying, defining background conditions



Documentation, quality control sampling, data verification/validation, data quality assessment, decontamination, health & safety, management of investigation waste

A recognized expert on this subject, author Mark Byrnes provides standard operating procedures and guidance on the proper implementation of these methods, focusing on proven technologies that are acknowledged by EPA and State regulatory agencies as reputable techniques.

Mark E. Byrnes, RG, RHG, HS-PMP, is a senior environmental scientist and project manager working for the Central Plateau Cleanup Company at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation, where he is responsible for the groundwater characterization of one of the largest chlorinated solvent plumes in the world. Mark has over 30 years of experience overseeing the design and implementation of statistical and nonstatistical environmental sampling programs to support site characterization, waste characterization, risk assessments, feasibility studies, and remedial designs. He received his Master of Science degree in geology/geochemistry from Portland State University (Oregon), and his Bachelor of Arts degree in geology from the University of Colorado (Boulder). Mark is a registered geologist and hydrogeologist in the State of Washington. He is the author of the earlier 2009 and 1994 editions of this book which have been used as textbooks at many universities across the country, including Georgia Institute of Technology. He is also the author of the 2003 Lewis Publishers book titled Nuclear, Chemical, and Biological Terrorism: Emergency Response and Public Protection, and the 2001 Lewis Publishers book titled Sampling and Surveying Radiological Environments.
