Part I: Bioventing Pilot Test Work Plan for Site 13115 Heating Oil UST Site Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California. Part II: Draft Bioventing Pilot Test Interim Results Report for Site 13115 Heating Oil UST Site Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California

Abstract

This Pilot Test Work Plan presents the scope of an in-situ bioventing pilot test for the treatment of fuel-contaminated soils at the Building 13115 heating oil underground storage tank (UST) site, located in Area 13 on Marine Corp Base (MCB) Camp Pendleton. Camp Pendleton is located almost entirely in northern San Diego County (Figure 1.1), approximately halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. MCB Camp Pendleton is located on the Pacific Coast between the cities of San Clemente (in southern Orange County) to the north, Oceanside to the south, and Fallbrook to the east. Constructed in 1942, the Base is primarily used for amphibious training. Other important Base activities include a Marine Corps Air Station and several artillery and bombing ranges. Bioventing tests have three primary objectives: (1) to assess the potential for supplying oxygen throughout the contaminated soil interval, (2) to determine the rate at which indigenous microorganisms will degrade fuel in the soil when stimulated by oxygen-rich soil gas, and (3) to evaluate the potential for sustaining these rates of biodegradation until fuel contamination is remediated to concentrations below regulatory standards.
