The Chromite Ore Processing Residue (COPR) and the testing and evaluation of the site, risk assessments, and remediation have had costs and benefits occur from the years 1976 to 2001. Some of the management decisions were deciding on if the sites were worth the cost of remediation and the adverse effects that could potentially cause harmful ...
to hexavalent chromium. The highly soluble hexavalent chromium was then removed from the COPR (left over Chromium Ore Processing Residue) leaving un-oxidized trivalent chromium and slow-dissolving hexavalent chromium compounds [Burke et al., 1991]. In the absence of information on the toxicity of hexavalent chromium, COPR was subsequently used ...
