Vapor Intrusion Mitigation for New Construction Using Reliable Laboratory Data

Vapor intrusion poses a significant potential to expose people to harmful compounds and this is no different in new construction than in existing structures. As VI has grown in publicity over the past 20 years, the scientific understanding of VI has also grown exponentially. In this class we will learn about the key elements of VI site characterization, the challenges to gathering and interpreting data and also the innovative tools that can be used in overcoming these challenges.
