Site Description Chlorinated solvents were found in soil and around water beneath a drum storage area at a manufacturing facility in central Indiana. The contamination was mainly found in the uppermost occurrence of ground water in an intratill silty sand formation. Within this zone the contamination had spread to cover an area of approximately 3,500 square ...
Investigation of an industrial dry cleaners near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania found concentrations of breakdown products of PCE in the soil and ground water. The parent PCE presumably was reductively dechlorinated to TCE, DCE and vinyl chloride. However, since the daughter products DCE and vinyl chloride are more readily degraded under aerobic conditions, the breakdown was incomplete and natural ...
Unit costs and assumptions related to labor, equipment, and consumables are applied to determine costs associated with each approach for various UMSs. In general, the direct-push sensor systems provide cost-effective characterization information in soils that are penetrable with relatively shallow (less than 10 to 15 m) water tables. For sites with impenetrable ...
