RMAEP Utah Lunch & Learn

Remedial Design Characterization Through Injection Process Monitoring
Join RMAEP Utah at Geosyntec’s offices in downtown Salt Lake City on Wednesday, February 18th, 2026 from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm to learn about remedial design characterization through injection process monitoring with John Fontana of Vista GeoScience!
In-situ remediation has become a widely used approach for treating contaminated soil and groundwater, yet its success depends heavily on how well subsurface conditions are understood and how effectively treatment reagents are delivered to impacted zones. This presentation provides an overview of current best practices for remedial design characterization (RDC) as it relates to injection-based in-situ remediation.
Topics will include an overview of common in-situ treatment approaches, reagent selection considerations, and injection delivery methods, with a focus on the challenges that often limit performance. Chief among these challenges are accurately defining the vertical and horizontal extent of contamination and understanding the hydraulic properties that control reagent distribution in heterogeneous soils and bedrock.
