This book provides a practical strategy for obtaining a more complete and accurate geologic site characterization. The strategy and methods to characterize complex geologic settings are readily available. The strategy utilizes readily available technology, basic science and good, oldfashioned common sense resulting in a solid understanding of geologic and even karst or pseudokarst conditions. We provide an introduction to many offtheshelf methods available for site characterization as well as examples of their application throughout the book.The purpose of a geologic site characterization is to understand the 3dimensional geologic framework, along with the engineering and hydrologic properties of a site including any manmade impacts. A welldone site characterization is the cornerstone of all geotechnical, groundwater and environmental projects. The geologic conditions, particularly karst conditions, can significantly impact a site including its structural stability, groundwater pathways and potential for rapid transport or traps for contaminants. Once we have adequately characterized the geologic conditions can we carry our remediation, design and construction, model flow, and make risk assessments that are accurate and reliable.
