Extended Bioventing Testing Results at the Medical Training Facility, Westover ARB

Abstract

Parsons Engineering Science, Inc. (Parsons ES) is pleased to submit the results of the extended bioventing testing at the Medical Training Facility (MTF) at Westover Air Reserve Base (ARB), located in Chicopee, Massachusetts. Soil gas samples were collected and in situ respiration testing was performed by Parsons ES from 29 July 1996 to 2 August 1996 to assess the extent of remediation completed during one year of air injection bioventing. The purpose of this letter is to summarize 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 three tables are attached. The as-built bioventing system and sampling/ respiration testing locations are illustrated on Figure 1. Table 1 summarizes soil analytical results as compared to State of Massachusetts criteria. Tables 2 provides results of initial and 1-year soil gas sampling, and Table 3 provides results of initial and 1-year respiration testing.
