Vapor Intrusion Soil Gas Characterization
Soil Gas Characterization refers to the methods utilized to collect vapor data at sites potentially affected by volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including chlorinated solvents, petroleum hydrocarbons, methane, hydrogen sulfide and semi volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) as well as toxic or carcinogenic chemicals of concern. The data obtained from a soil gas investigation can be used to identify the source and spatial distribution of contamination at a site or to estimate indoor air concentrations for risk assessment purposes.
