Track: Environment Management
Author(s): Marianne Cardwell, Michael Beardslee

This paper covers the use of GIS for a large CWM project in northwest Washington, D.C. The goal of the Spring Valley FUDS project is to investigate and identify for remediation CWM-related contamination for more than 1,200 residential properties in one of D.C.'s most exclusive neighborhoods. A variety of off-the-shelf and customized Esri GIS solutions have been applied to support daily sampling efforts, conduct historical photographic analyses, perform footprint analysis to identify areas of likely contamination, focus geophysical investigation work, and perform a number of data/database management tasks. An ArcIMS Web site has also been created to facilitate stakeholder involvement.
