Learning Outcomes

Many states have adopted voluntary corrective action programs and Brownfields programs that use risk-based corrective action principles. A common element of these programs is the use of Activity and Use Limitations (AULs) (also referred to as "Institutional Controls", "Deed Restrictions', or "Land Use Controls") to achieve either an "acceptable risk" or a "no significant risk" level.

By the end of this course you will be able to:
  • Recall the purpose of AULs in the remedial action process and the types of AULs that are most commonly available.
  • Incorporate AULs into remediation programs using a risk-based approach to corrective action.
  • Apply screening and balancing criteria in determining whether a particular AUL may be appropriate.
  • Recall the process for evaluating which AUL, or combination of AULs, best achieves the "no significant risk" standard.
  • State the importance of addressing long term stewardship concerns.

About Sponsoring Committee

Organized in 1898. ASTM is one of the world's largest voluntary standards development organizations. ASTM standards have grown to be among the world's most widely used and accepted documents. Recognizing the need for authoritative site assessment standards, ASTM pulled together environmental professionals, real estate and insurance professionals, lawyers, and government representatives. These members of Committee E50 and Subcommittee E50.04 on Performance Standards Related to Environmental Regulatory Programs developed the standard upon which this course is based.
Attention: Professional Engineers

If your state has a continuing education requirement for license renewal, ASTM training courses and ASTM membership can help you meet that requirement.
How Learning Will Be Assessed

Learning will be assessed through a series of question and answer sessions.
