Containment ground covering

Many Allegheny hardwood stands are exposed to heavy deer browsing and also contain dense fern or grass ground covers. Recently, we evaluated the relative importance of deer and weeds at the 2 critical stages in the regeneration process of shelterwood cut stands—after the seed cut and after the removal cut (3). [Pg.209]

Buried Chemical Warfare Materiel Chemical warfare materiel, which are buried on both private lands and military installations, consisting of various munitions, bombs, rockets, and containers that may have been contaminated with nerve, blister, blood, or choking agents. At some sites, chemical munitions and agents were drained into holes in the ground, covered with lime or burned in an open pit, and finally covered with earth. Based on preliminary analyses, the Army has identified potential chemical warfare materiel at 215 burial sites in 33 states, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Washington, DC. The Army has determined that thirty of the 215 potential burial sites warrant no further remediation activity. This determination is based on the Army s assessment of the potential burial site, prior remedial work, or accessibility to the site. [Pg.77]

Veneering Investments. These are phosphate bonded and contain finely ground quart2, 2irconium oxide, and/or titanium oxide to produce highly refractory, low expansion dies of fine detail. The dies are formed within impressions taken of teeth that the dentist has prepared in anticipation of covering the front surface with an aesthetic ceramic veneer. Porcelain or ceramic powders are shaped to detail on the dies and these are fired at high (- 1000° C) temperatures to produce the veneers. The veneers are then cemented to the front surface of the previously prepared teeth. [Pg.478]

Public concerns about air quality led to the passage of the Clean Air Act in 1970 to amendments to that act in 1977 and 1990. The 1990 amendments contained seven separate titles covering different regula-toiy programs and include requirements to install more advanced pollution control equipment and make other changes in industrial operations to reduce emissions of air pollutants. The 1990 amendments address sulfur dioxide emissions and acid rain deposition, nitrous oxide emissions, ground-level ozone, carbon monoxide emissions, particulate emissions, tail pipe emissions, evaporative emissions, reformulated gasoline, clean-fueled vehicles and fleets, hazardous air pollutants, solid waste incineration, and accidental chemical releases. [Pg.478]

In addition, cover systems are also used in the remediation of hazardous waste sites. For example, cover systems may be applied to source areas contaminated at or near the ground surface or at abandoned dumps. In such cases, the cover system may be used alone or in conjunction with other technologies to contain the waste (e.g., slurry walls and groundwater pump and treat systems). [Pg.1059]

The root-bark is brittle. To powderize it one had to simply place the sticks of dried bark into the blender. They were immediately ground to a fine powder without any trouble, giving off a pink haze when the cover of the blender was released. The powder was stored in a tupperware container and placed in the back of a freezer. [Pg.22]

Rifaximin is broad-spectrum antibiotic, which covers many skin pathogens, whose lack of transcutaneous absorption has been well documented by both animal [8] and human [9] studies. On these grounds, a topical formulation (i.e. cream) containing 5% of the active compound was developed and tested in the treatment of pyogenic skin infections. Some open trials [20, 21] showed the efficacy and safety of the formulation and pointed out the lack of selection of resistant strains after topical application of rifaximin. In any event, drug delivery from the topical formulation is orders of magnitude higher than the... [Pg.124]
