Groundwater Migration Environmental Indicator
Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-012688
What does the Contaminated Groundwater Migration EI measure? - The GM EI documents whether contamination is below protective, risk-based levels or, if not, whether the migration of contaminated groundwater is stabilized and there is no unacceptable discharge to surface water and monitoring will be conducted to confirm that affected groundwater remains in the original area of contamination. This indicator normally is limited to sites with known groundwater contamination. A conclusion of "migration of contaminated groundwater under control" generally indicates that all information on known and reasonably expected groundwater contamination has been reviewed and the above conditions are met.
