Treatability Study in Support of Remediation by Natural Attenuation for Groundwater at Site LF-06, Columbus Air Force Base, Columbus, Mississippi

Abstract

This report presents the results of a treatability study (TS) performed by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (parsons ES) at Site LF-06, Columbus Air Force Base, Mississippi, to evaluate remediation by natural attenuation (RNA) of dissolved fuel- hydrocarbons and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) in groundwater. The TS focused on the fate and transport of dissolved CAHs, particularly trichloroethene (TCE), chlorobenzene (CB), and vinyl chloride (VC); however, petroleum hydrocarbons INCLUDING BENZENE, TOLUENE, ETHYLBENZENE, AND XYLENES (BTEX) also are present in site groundwater and were considered. The site history and the results of the soil and groundwater investigations conducted previously also are summarized in this report.
