A Case Study: Petroleum Storage Terminal Webinar

RBCA Webinar Series Bundle

About the Course

Join Atul Salhotra for this webinar from 2:00-3:15 PM Eastern time.

The session will present in detail a case study involving the application of RBCA to a petroleum hydrocarbon terminal. The step by step presentation of this case study combined with the knowledge gained by attending this Webinar Series will enable the participants to plan and implement a risk assessment at their site. It will also present an outline of the entire document that participants can use to document the risk assessment they perform at their sites.

Registering for the Webinar

The fee is $89 per person. After registering you will receive an email within a few hours with information about how to access the webinar. In addition to the webinar, you'll get 7-day access to a recording of the webinar.

About the Instructor

Dr. Atul M. Salhotra is an internationally recognized expert in the qualitative and quantitative behavior of chemicals in the environment; assessment of human and ecological risk from chemicals; statistical analysis of data; development of environmental policies related to chemicals, and regulatory negotiations regarding contaminated sites. His expertise and opinions are sought after and trusted by regulators, industries, and the courts by virtue of his having developed risk based decision making programs for the management of chemically impacted sites for USEPA, fifteen states in US and countries outside the US.

Dr. Salhotra has conducted training courses in over 25 states and 10 countries related to the management of contaminated soil, groundwater, air, lakes and rivers. Over 7,000 individuals (practicing engineers, consultants, regulators, decision makers, and responsible parties) have attended his courses, and their careers have benefited from the training received. These courses include the fate and transport of chemicals in the environment, human and ecological risk assessment, site assessment and other aspects.

Since 1998, Dr. Salhotra has been involved in several projects in Israel. As a consultant to the Israel Ministry of Environment Water, he has developed the guidance document for the management of contaminated sites referred to as the Israel Risk Based Corrective Action Program. His clients include several Israeli consulting companies, developers, trade groups and public and private organizations.

Dr. Salhotra's applied research work has involved the development and application of exposure and risk assessment methodologies for environmental decision making. Dr. Salhotra was the project manager for the team that developed the EPACML (EPA's Composite Model for Landfills), and EPAMMM (EPA's Multi-Med Model) for landfills. The EPACML model was used to develop USEPA's Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) rule. Dr. Salhotra has used the following tools for evaluating the leachate production, regulatory negotiations, and risk at several landfill projects:

• Human health and ecological risk assessment
• Multi-media (soil, groundwater, surface water, and air) chemical fate and transport Models
• Data interpretation and statistical evaluation of data including monte-carlo Simulation
• Evaluation of LNAPL and DNAPL data
• Education of stakeholders, including regulators
• Preparation and delivery of clear and precise reports and presentations
• Application of "common sense" and "simplest possible" models
• Hydrologic Evaluation of Landfill Performance (HELP) model

Dr. Salhotra has been involved in various aspects related to the contamination in Kishon River, Hackensack River, and the Lower Passaic River.
