Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Training Module about Groundwater Monitoring

***NOTE***

This module was last updated in 2001 so it has not been updated to reflect regulatory changes that have been made since then. Though this is still a useful resource, it is not intended to serve as a comprehensive source of regulatory information.

This training module:

  • Describes the groundwater monitoring criteria for interim status and permitted facilities
  • Explains monitoring well placement
  • Describes the three stages of the groundwater monitoring program for permitted facilities

Find more information on our groundwater monitoring web page.  Access other training modules that provide overviews of other specific RCRA regulatory topics here.
