California Vapor Intrusion Blog

This California Vapor Intrusion (VI) Blog provides updates on CalEPA’s rule development process associated with increasing attenuation factors (AFs) for volatile organic compounds.  Winefield & Associates contends that the proposed new AF standard of 0.03 is neither scientifically sound nor necessary.  As such, the blog will provide scientific and regulatory data with the goal of developing sane VI criteria that remain protective of human health while not thwarting California development, especially as California experiences a severe housing shortage.

CalEPA is spearheading a series of vapor intrusion workshops to:

1) share current knowledge, tools, and strategies that CalEPA agencies are using to evaluate sites where VI may pose a potential health risk; and

2) update the public and interested parties on the agency’s efforts to collect data and case studies to potentially develop California specific attenuation factors. 

Monthly technical workshops are planned to cover such topics as: conceptual site model best practices; VI screening to site closure; collective decision making with VI partners; VI in the community; VI data in Geotracker.  The kick-off meeting will take place on July 24th at 9am.
