Work Plan for a Demonstration of Remediation by Natural Attenuation for Groundwater at OU 6 at Hill Air Force Base, Utah

Abstract

This work plan (WP) was prepared by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES) to define the scope of work (SOW) and procedures required to evaluate remediation by natural attenuation (RNA) of groundwater contaminated with chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) at Operable Unit 6 (OU 6), Hill Air Force Base (AFB) , Utah. To meet this goal, this work plan presents a preliminary conceptual model based on available data, and provides suggested protocols to fill the identified data gaps necessary to develop a more thorough conceptual model of groundwater flow and RNA at OU 6. For the purposes of this work plan, RNA is defined as a management strategy that relies on natural mechanisms to achieve a reduction in the total mass of contamination in the subsurface, and to control receptor exposure risks associated with this contamination.
