The Remediation and Redevelopment Program reminds you that the next webinar in the Issues & Trends series will take place on Tuesday, April 20, 2021, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m.

The scheduled presentation is: Vapor Intrusion – Acute Risk Associated with TCE.

The presentation is a discussion of the acute risk associated with trichloroethylene (TCE) in vapors. Presenters Jennifer Borski, vapor intrusion team leader, and Jim Walden, vapor intrusion technical expert, will provide background on TCE and its prevalence in Wisconsin, along with a discussion of short-term, health-related concerns. Curtis Hedman, a toxicologist at the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), will also join the webinar. The presenters will also explain the need to prioritize vapor investigations when TCE is a contaminant of concern, DNR’s authority under NR 708 and the DNR’s partnerships with DHS and local health departments.
