<< Evaluation | Field Team | Policy Team | Lab Team | Solutions / Technology Team / Risk Team
All Teams are responsible for the first three questions:
| Definition | Dictionary Definition | Definition in context with Examples | Scientific Explanation | Discriminate between definitions and/or viewpoints |
| Causes Sources Uses |
Contaminant and evidence of contamination | Sources (point, non-point), historical and/or current uses | Routes, means of transport, primary vs. secondary, incidental | Documentation of problem based on what is known, unresolved questions, missing or controversial data |
| Concentration | Relative concentrations throughout Ramford | Change in concentrations over time in Ramford | Reasons for relative concentrations in Ramford | Assessment of the total extent of contaminant |

| Persistence
|
Where asbestos persists in the environment | Problems on a domestic and international level | Asbestos' effect based on activity and concentration in the environment. | Examples (case studies) of asbestos range of persistence levels |
| Interaction with environment | How the contaminant interacts with the environment | Conditions in the environment (Temp., light, etc) which affect bioavailability | Results of the domino effect (specific chemical interactions, e.g. solubility and volatility) | Cases showing the relative importance of the environmental
interactions
|
| Transport in the environment | How the contaminant moves in the environment | Relative importance of different kinds of movement | Relative importance of different rates of movement | Ranking of different kinds of movement based on importance in contamination |
