In 2016, the major tasks of this two-year’s project were to establish a response team that assisted EPA to investigate the incidents of soil and groundwater pollution and provide professional consulting service and technical support. This year, the response team had investigated 7 incidents of soil or groundwater pollution. The tasks for each polluted site included site survey, soil or groundwater investigation, pollution evaluation, source identification, and others requested by EPA. The performance of all tasks met EPA’s requirements. In this project, there were 1 sites that the soil or groundwater pollutant concentrations exceeded the pollution control standards. Major pollutants included volatile organic chemicals. At present, local EPBs or related government agencies are conducting administrative control measures. The project also provided technical support according to EPA’s requirements, which included technical documents gathering, pollution source identification, feasibility study, etc.
