One-Year Testing Results Report for Full-Scale Bioventing at the POL Yard, Sites SS-06 and ST-40, Wurtsmith AFB, Michigan

Abstract

This letter report presents the results for the full-scale bioventing system testing performed by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES) at the POL yard, Sites SS-06 and ST-40, Wurtsmith AFB, Michigan. Soil gas samples were collected and in situ respiration testing was performed by Parsons ES from 15 to 18 September 1997 to assess the extent of remediation completed during approximately 1 year of air injection bioventing. The purpose of this letter is to summarize site and bioventing activities to date, present the results of the most recent respiration testing and soil gas sampling, and make recommendations based on site data. A site layout and two tables are attached. The as-built bioventing system and sampling/ respiration testing locations are illustrated on Figure 1. Table 1 provides results of initial and 1-year soil gas sampling, and Table 2 provides results of respiration testing performed both prior to bioventing system startup and after 1-year of air injection bioventing.
