The Defense Priority Model (DPM) ranks hazardous waste sites for remedial action priority under the Department of Defense's (DoD's) Installation Restoration Program. The DPM considers: the toxicity and concentration of contaminants present at the site; nearby human and ecological receptors; and ground water, surface water and air/soil as environmental transport pathways for contaminants. DoD plans to use DPM results to identify sites which present the greatest risk and therefore should receive funding priority. Computer implementation of the DPM is described, including a rationale for selection of expert system software and programming approach.
