Mass removal rates up to 160 pounds per day (73 kgs per day) were observed during the initial four months of O&M. The mass removal rate was observed to stabilize after May 2008 and decrease significantly by IRM system shutdown.<\/p>\n Approximately 12,700 gallons (45,000 liters) of LNAPL were extracted from the subsurface, recovered by separation, and then disposed offsite by incineration.

\nparts. A total of 26 on-site tanks and pits were reportedly used for storage of raw materials and
\nwastes, including gasoline, Varsol\u00ae, kerosene, fuel oil, cutting oil, hydraulic oil and waste oil.
\nNumerous remediation activities have been completed on the site since 1972. A brief summary of these activities is provided below.<\/p>\n\n
\n\u2022 1986 – Leak tested and removed underground storage tanks (USTs). Closed Pits 10 and 11.
\n\u2022 1987 – Installed groundwater monitoring wells and initiated routine groundwater monitoring.
\n\u2022 1989 – Constructed a slurry wall and asphalt cap containment system.
\n\u00bb Constructed and activated a groundwater extraction and treatment system.
\n\u00bb Constructed and activated a light non-aqueous-phase liquid (LNAPL) recovery system.
\n\u00bb Constructed and activated a soil vapor extraction (SVE) system.
\n\u2022 2007 – Implemented a Steam Enhanced Extraction (SEE) interim remedial measure (IRM) in the Former Pit 17\/18 Area. The IRM was designed to reduce residual CVOC source mass and LNAPL within the former Pit 17\/18 area.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\ncompounds (CVOCs); 1,1,1-TCA, TCE, 1,1-and cis-1,2-DCE, 1,1-DCA, VC and PCBs. A significant quantity of LNAPL was present and targeted for removal as well.
\nGeology\/Hydrogeology: <\/strong>Three layer unconsolidiated aquifer system comprised of:
\n\u2022 A fill layer 0-15 ft (0-4.5 m) below ground surface (bgs),
\n\u2022 Semi Confining Intermediate Silty Clay Layer 15 – 25 ft (4.5-8 m) bgs
\n\u2022 Sand\/gravel layer 25-50 ft (8-15 m) bgs
\nShallow bedrock was encountered at 40 ft (12 m) bgs, and the water levels were influenced by the nearby Susquehanna River.
\nProject Goals: <\/strong>The remedial objectives for the site were to
\n1. Remove NAPL within the shallow fill and deep sand\/gravel unit;
\n2. Remove the sorbed phase CVOC mass;
\n3. Eliminate CVOC mass flux to groundwater;
\n4. Enable shut down of the existing pump and treat system; and,
\n5. Expedite site closure.<\/p>\n
\nrespective maximum sustained value. Trichloroethene (TCE) reduction was reported to be 85 percent; however, its maximum sustained is likely biased low due to elevated detection limits in November 2007.<\/p>\n
