Bioventing Test Work Plan and Interim Results Report for Three Bioventing Sites Patrick Air Force Base and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida

Abstract

This site-specific work plan presents the scope of multiphase bioventing pilot tests for in situ treatment of fuel-contaminated soils at the Fire Protection Training Area designated as Site FTA-2 at Patrick Air Force Base (AFB), florida. The proposed pilot tests will be performed by Engineering-Science, Inc. (ES). The three primary objectives of the proposed pilot tests are: (1) to assess the potential for supplying oxygen throughout the contaminated soil depth, (2) to determine the rate at which indigenous microorganisms will degrade the 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 to concentrations below regulatory standards.
