Volatilization to Indoor Air Pathway for Environmental Professionals

Vapor intrusion is the process of vapors migrating from volatile chemicals in contaminated soil or ground water through subsurface soils and/or preferential pathways (such as underground utilities) and impacting the indoor air quality of any overlying buildings. The volatilization to indoor air pathway (VIAP) is the exposure pathway that evaluates the risk posed from vapor intrusion and direct volatilization.

The VIAP information linked to this web page includes specific guidance developed by EGLE, reference materials including technical resources, training opportunities, and examples of VIAP investigations completed within the state of Michigan. There is also a point of contact information for any questions you may have on the VIAP in your area.
