ABSTRACT
This paper reviews the development of environmental geotechnics and describes thrust areas for the new millenium. The discussion focuses on four key areas: site characterization, remediation, waste containment, and beneficial reuse of industrial byproducts. Thrust areas for the new millenium include innovative remediation technologies such as reactive walls and other treatment methods not constrained by mass transfer limitations, risk-based clean up, bioreactor landfills, and beneficial reuse of industrial byproducts
