Gasoline Alley, Fort Drum Bioremediation Evaluation, Area 1595, Phase I and Phase II

Abstract

The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), Vicksburg, MS, under scope of work agreement with the U.S. Army Engineer District, Baltimore, conducted a biological treatability study to evaluate three alternative remediation strategies and provide information useful for the design and implementation of long-term remediation activities for Area 1595 of Gasoline Alley, Fort Drum, New York. The project was executed between March and October 1997. The objectives of the evaluation were to: (a) determine potential microbial activity of Area 1595 subsurface soils; (b) determine intrinsic TPH degradation potential of Area 1595 subsurface microorganisms; (c) determine parameters which will enhance subsurface microbial growth in Area 1595; (d) optimize parameters using column study simulation of Area 1595 subsurface conditions; and (e) generate data for design and preliminary cost evaluation for the remediation of Area 1595. This document reports the final analysis of treatability evaluations for Area 1595.
