Description	Petroleum contamination of soil is a serious problem throughout the U.S. Bioremediation of petroleum in soil using indigenous microorganisms has proven effective; however, the biodegradation rate of more recalcitrant and potentially toxic petroleum contaminants, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), is rapid at first but declines quickly. Biodegradation of such compounds is limited by their strong adsorption potential and low solubility. Vegetation may play an important role in the biodegradation of toxic organic chemicals in soil. For petroleum compounds, the presence of rhizosphere microflora may accelerate biodegradation of the contaminants. The establishment of vegetation on hazardous waste sites is an economic, potentially effective, low-maintenance approach to waste remediation and stabilization.
