Description
Summary:This case study review was prepared as part of a Navy-led project to foster broader understanding and acceptance of the Enhanced Monitored Natural Recovery (EMNR) remedy through demonstration and validation of performance and cost-effectiveness at Department of Defense contaminated sediment sites. EMNR is a hybrid remedy that generally relies on the combined effects of a thin layer cap (enhancement) and natural recovery, and is verified over time through monitoring. This case study review is a resource for site managers who are considering EMNR as a remedy. The EMNR project will perform a field demonstration based on this review.
