The three tiers of monitoring provide a range of information necessary for the management of clean-up operations.

In 1997, some provinces ceased to process new applicants during the clean-up process and others defaulted on payments.

Given the large quantity of petroleum-contaminated soil present, remediation processes that can be carried out in situ are likely to be the preferable clean-up options.

With increasing public attention regarding the preservation of the environment, the development of oil clean-up technologies has gained considerable interest.

In the results section, the authors estimate the number of cases of childhood morbidity that could be averted in each pollution clean-up scenario.

This figure also shows a clean-up transducer which removes any violation markers from the eventual outputs.

Together, this information is used as the basis for trigger values to initiate remediation and target values to be achieved by clean-up.

During the 2000 clean-up, approximately 1 tonne of material was removed from the surface of the bottle dump.

The women's group participated in the construction, painting, installing lights and clean-up of the laboratory.

The increasing attention toward environmental quality has brought forward proposals for clean-up and restoration of natural environments.

Alternatively, there might be some clean-up process acting on the output pattern which will take time to settle into an equilibrium state.

Once the data collection is completed, the authors develop projections of population and two different air pollution clean-up campaigns for the period 2002-2011.

The second proposed tier was medium-term monitoring to confirm that clean-up does not create greater adverse environmental impacts.

The third tier was designed to determine whether the clean-up provides long-term environmental benefits.

Often clean-up projects are required to use local labour when available.
