This course will provide LSPs with the fundamentals of Method 3 Risk Characterization under the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP). This course is intended for LSPs and others who have little or no experience performing Method 3 Risk Characterization. The goals of this course are as follows:
This course is designed for LSPs who want to do Method 3 Risk Characterization for uncomplicated sites such as most leaking UST sites. It is also intended to help LSPs interpret the results of Method 3 Risk Characterization, particularly LSPs in small practices who have subcontractors do their Method 3’s and who want to ensure that the work is consistent with MCP guidance. The course will provide sufficient background for LSPs to discuss the scope of a Method 3 Risk Characterization with subcontractors and to ensure that proper scenarios have been evaluated. This course is not intended for LSPs or others who currently do Method 3 Risk Characterization; this will be a basic course that addresses fundamentals and will assume limited experience with Method 3. The course will assume that participants have some experience with Method 1 and understand selection of Contaminants of Concern and calculation of Exposure Point Concentrations. This course will be given over four hours. It is recommended that participants bring a laptop with Excel available for practicing calculations. To view course outline, click here.
