Extended Bioventing Testing Results for Facility 6454 Vandenberg Air Force Base, California

Abstract

This letter presents the results of the bioventing system monitoring performed by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES) in October 1997 at Facility 6454, Vandenberg Air Force Base (AFB), California. Soil gas samples were collected and in situ respiration testing was performed by Parsons ES between 20 and 25 October 1997 to assess the extent of remediation completed during approximately 1 year of expanded (full-scale) bioventing system operation (Option 1). The purpose of this letter is to summarize site and bioventing activities to date, present the results of the 1-year system monitoring event and compare them with the results of the initial pilot test and the full-scale system installation, and to recommend future remediation activities for the site based on these findings. A site layout illustrating the full-scale bioventing system component locations is provided in Figure 1, and Tables 1 through 4 summarize bioventing test results.
