Closure Sampling and Analysis Plan for IRP Site 43 Building 1200 Former Diesel UST Site Edwards AFB, California

Abstract

During the past two years, Edwards Air Force Base (AFB) has participated in the Air Force Bioventing Pilot Test Initiative Project. Sponsored by the Air Force Center for Environmental Excellence (AFCEE) at Brooks AFB, Texas, the project included conducting more than 135 in situ bioventing pilot tests at 48 Air Force installations throughout the country. These tests were designed to collect data on the effectiveness of bioventing for the remediation of soil contaminated with fuel hydrocarbons (i.e., JP-4 jet fuel, diesel fuel, gasoline, heating oil, etc.). One-year-long bioventing pilot tests have recently been concluded at three Edwards AFB sites. Based on the results of these one-year tests, in situ bioventing has been effective enough to support closure of the IRP Site 43 Building 1200 Former Diesel underground storage tank (UST) Site.
