SUMMARY OF THE REMEDIATION TECHNOLOGIES DEVELOPMENT FORUM
PERMEABLE REACTIVE BARRIERS ACTION TEAM
STEERING COMMITTEE CONFERENCE CALL

3:00 p.m.-4:00 p.m.
March 13, 2002

On Wednesday, March 13, 2002, the following members of the Remediation Technologies Development Forum's (RTDF's) Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRB) Action Team met in a conference call:

Bob Puls, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (Action Team Co-chair)
Matthew Turner, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection

Also participating in the call was Christine Hartnett from Eastern Research Group, Inc. (ERG).

NEXT RTDF PRB ACTION TEAM MEETING

Bob Puls discussed dates and location for the next PRB Action Team meeting. During previous conference calls, he noted, participants expressed interest in holding the meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, in summer 2002. The summer schedule, however, is already filled with a number of other meetings. For this reason, Puls said, it would be better to hold the RTDF meeting in fall 2002. Turner agreed.

ACTION ITEMS

• Puls asked for input on the location and dates (i.e., between September and November) for the next PRB Action Team meeting. Steering Committee members should e-mail their thoughts to Puls (puls.robert@epamail.epa.gov) as soon as possible.



• ERG will set up the next PRB Steering Committee conference call for April 3, between 2:30 and 4:00 Eastern Standard Time.
