**Bioremediation Resource**

(Please forward this invitation to colleagues concerned with remediation 
of environmental contaminants.  I apologize if you have previously 
received this message.)

Environmental Scientist/Engineer,

GZA GeoEnvironmental, Inc. (GZA, http://www.gza.net) hosts the
Bioremediation Discussion Group (BioGroup, http://biogroup.gzea.com) on 
the Internet, which consists of a moderated electronic mailing list 
serving nearly 2,200 members worldwide, including consultants, 
regulators, researchers, and industry representatives. The BioGroup 
was developed to be a global forum for discussing both intrinsic 
bioremediation (natural attenuation) and enhanced bioremediation 
topics.  It is our hope this forum provides a medium for technology 
transfer and standardization of biotreatability protocols, and 
advances bioremediation science and engineering.  GZA recognizes 
bioremediation is not a panacea for soil/groundwater contamination; 
however, we believe it to be an under-utilized remedial technology, 
limitations notwithstanding.

The forum was developed to be a springboard for pursuing innovative 
approaches to bioremediation.  Because BioGroup success is a function of 
member participation, GZA invites anyone with experience/interest in 
bioremediation to join.  Due to the complex biogeochemical processes 
that control biological transformation processes, we welcome input from 
environmental engineers, hydrogeologists, soil scientists, 
microbiologists, environmental chemists, and all who wish to contribute 
to this important topic.

Postings are archived as a collaborative effort of the National Water 
Research Institute (Environment Canada) and GZA.  The archive URL 
is http://gwrp.cciw.ca/internet/bioremediation/biorem-archive.html.

To join the BioGroup, please visit http://biogroup.gzea.com, select
"Membership Info", and follow the directions therein.  Members select
whether to participate in a non-digest mode (i.e., receive each message 
at the time it is accepted) or a digest mode (i.e., receive one message 
each day summarizing all the postings of that day).  **There is no 
membership fee.**

Please direct any questions about the BioGroup to my attention.
