Bioventing Test Work Plan for Fire Training Pit 1 and Spill Site 1, F.E. Warren AFB, Wyoming

Abstract

This test work plan presents the scope of an in situ bioventing pilot test for treatment of fuel contaminated soils at Fire Training Pit 1 and Spill Site 1 on F. E. Warren AFB, WY. The pilot tests have three primary objectives: 1) to assess the potential for supplying oxygen throughout the contaminated soil depth, 2) to determine the rate at which indigenous microorganisms will degrade fuel when stimulated by oxygen rich soil gas, and 3) to evaluate the potential for sustaining these rates of biodegradation until fuel contamination is remediated below regulatory standards.
