  • The importance of compiling data on both successful and unsuccessful barrier installations.

Although these issues were not fully explored during the workshop, they will serve as good starting points for future discussion on containment technology. The papers prepared by the workshop presenters, included in Appendix D, should provide a useful supplement to other compilations of work on barrier technology from recent meetings and workshops.
