Work Plan for a Treatability Study in Support of the Intrinsic Remediation (Natural Attenuation) Option at the BX Shoppette (Site E11)

Abstract

This work plan, prepared by Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES), presents the scope of work required for the collection of data necessary to conduct a treatability study (TS) for remediation of groundwater contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons at the Base Exchange (BX) Shoppette underground storage tank site (Site El 1) located at Eaker Air Force Base (AFB) (the Base), near the city of Blytheville, Arkansas. Several groundwater remedial options will be evaluated as a part of the TS report, including: active bioremediation (i.e., air sparging and bioventing); groundwater extraction, treatment, and disposal (i.e., pump and treat); and natural contaminant attenuation (intrinsic remediation) with long-term monitoring. Hydrogeologic and groundwater chemical data necessary to evaluate the various remedial options will be collected under this program; however, this work plan is oriented toward the collection of hydrogeologic data to be used as input into groundwater flow and solute transport models in support of intrinsic remediation for restoration of groundwater contaminated with benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX).
