EBC Site Remediation and Redevelopment Webinar: Beneficial Use Determinations – An Effective (but underutilized?) Tool

This EBC Site Remediation and Redevelopment webinar will focus on Beneficial Use Determinations (BUD) and their efficacy and use in spurring redevelopment, minimizing waste, and improving environmental conditions.

Many redevelopment projects generate waste streams that require careful management, processing, and potentially costly disposal. The BUD risk assessment guidance provides a framework for evaluating potential risk, placement or processing of secondary materials, and material reuse. This webinar will focus on the process, risk assessment methods and standards (are they too low/restrictive?), project cost savings, and successful case studies where the use of BUDs was critical to redevelopment and project success. The program will also include presentations from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MASS DEP) (INVITED) on their perspective of the BUD process and use.

A robust panel discussion with the audience will conclude the webinar.
