Ecology and Biology Sample Clauses

Ecology and Biology. Ecological risk assessment will rely on analytical results obtained during the Phase I sampling event. The first step in the ecological risk assessment process is to conduct a screening-level ecological risk assessment (SLERA). As part of that process, the available ecological habitats will be identified and characterized. A SulTRAC biologist will visit the site and identify the areas likely to support ecological communities within the areas potentially affected by releases from the site. The quality of the habitats will also be assessed. The biologist will contact the appropriate state agencies to determine if threatened and endangered species are present or suspected to be present at the site or areas adjacent to the site. The SLERA will use soil (Section 4.4), surface water (Section 4.6), and groundwater (Section 4.5) data to assess the potential impacts on releases from the site to ecological receptors. These data will be compared with appropriate state and federal standards, criteria, and guidelines for the protection of ecological receptors.

Ecology and Biology. As part of the initial phase of the site investigation, no specific field sampling procedures associated with characterizing potential ecological exposures in the various habitats at the East Xxxx site are required. As noted earlier, the initial ecological evaluation will focus on determining the presence of ecological habitat, the presence or absence of soil, surface water, sediment, or groundwater contamination at the site, and the maximum concentrations of the contaminants consistent with EPA’s guidance for conducting a SLERA (EPA 1992). As noted in Section 4.8, the SLERA will use soil, surface water, and groundwater data to assess the potential risks to ecological receptors. The procedures to collect these data have been described in previous sections.
