Can a Screening Ecological Risk Assessment be completed utilizing pre-remedial data?
Yes. Depending on the available data set (quality, locations of sample stations, analytical parameters, etc.) it is recommended that the SERA be completed utilizing this data in order that the Baseline Ecological Risk Assessment Work Plan can be incorporated into the RI/FS Work Plan. At a minimum, the SERA must be completed as expeditiously as possible in order that the findings of the subsequent BERA, if required, can be incorporated into the RI Report.
