This is a SHORT, LIGHT and SIMPLE environmental newsletter. Its purpose is to inform and educate. It is one in a series of newsletters dealing with dry cleaning operations and their historical impact on air pollution and groundwater contamination. For more information please refer to the newsletter section at www.amiadini.com or look below for our contact information.

Environmental Investigations in Dry Cleaning Operations

Site Characterization Work II

A study of site assessments conducted at 150 contaminated drycleaning sites in Florida found that contaminated groundwater had migrated off-property at approximately 57% of the sites.

Off property site access could be problematic. A possible alternative is to obtain access to road right-of-ways from municipal, county and state government agencies.

The information in this newsletter has been gleaned from an EPA sponsored site at www.drycleancoalition.org and enhanced with pictures obtained from the Web.

Call me if you've got any questions. There are no obligations.
