Site selection guidelines for disposing of oil-saturated debris. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5561212
; ;
In the event an oil spill occurs on a body of water, debris is coated with oil. New York and Vermont, like most states, have plans for the removal of oil and debris from state lakes, rivers and streams. This report provides an analysis of alternatives for disposing oil-soaked debris. Those methods found to be most appropriate for the Lake Champlain Basin are landspreading, landfilling and burial. They are discussed at length in the report. Forty-six, Lake Champlain Basin sites, meeting the necessary criteria for oil-soaked debris disposal, were identified. A map and description of the areas are included in the work.
