L’usage approuvé du logiciel RBCA de l’Atlantique
Atlantic PIRI developed the software RBCA Tool-Kit for Atlantic Canada V3 to facilitate risk assessment and remediation of petroleum-impacted sites in the region. Based on the ASTM Standard PS 104-98 Standard Provisional Guide for Risk-Based Corrective Action, Atlantic RBCA V3 is adapted for Canadian toxicological values for petroleum hydrocarbons and for transport in soil and groundwater conditions found in Atlantic Canada.
Proper application of the tool requires understanding of principles of fate and transport and toxicology. The currently approved application of Atlantic RBCA is outlined in the User Guidance documentation, released in October 2003.
The ultimate goal of the software, and of any training in its use, is acceptance of remedial action plans and final remediation reports by Provincial regulators. The applications of Atlantic RBCA discussed in the User Guidance documentation have been endorsed by regulators in all four Provinces. Questions specific to its application in a particular case should be addressed to Provincial regulators.
NOTE: Participants should have a laptop that is running Excel 97, 2000, 2002 or 2003. The Atlantic RBCA software is not compatible with Excel 2007.
