Continuing work on ground water monitoring and bio-remediation at a former wood treatment site. A shallow sump in an adjoining parking lot needed to be abandoned to make way for expansion at a local business. The sump, one of several at the site, was installed in the 1990's during early site investigations to collect free product and water samples. We also replaced a 1990's era 2" monitoring well with a 4" diamter well. The old well screen had become plugged over time with fine-grained silt and clay, making it difficult to pump water out of, or into the well. The new well will be used as both an injection well and monitoring well for a bio-remediation test plot.
