Waste Site Reliability Management and Forensics
Publication: Forensic Engineering (2000)
Abstract
Hazardous waste sites in the United States have moved from a period of intense study (remedial investigation/feasibility study) to intense construction (remedial action.) Once remediated, sites enter a years-long period of operation and performance monitoring. Site specific performance of remedial actions is reviewed every five years. The uses of forensic engineering, failure analysis, and reliability engineering tools at typical waste sites are discussed from the perspective of failure avoidance. Although many of these techniques have been employed in the management of waste sites, their application is neither uniform nor universal.
