To condtict contaminated soil remediation tests, using diesel, <br /> trichloroethylene (TCE), and DDT as contaminants, over a period of at least <br /> 60 days, taking samples to test for contaminant and nutrient content and for <br /> both general and selective microbial plate courts. <br /> 5. To conduct contaminated water remediation tests, using diesel, TCE, and <br /> DDT as contaminants, over a period of at least 30 days;taking samples to. <br /> test for contaminant, nutrient content, and dissolved oxygen and for <br /> microbial plate counts. <br /> 6. To trap any gas produced by the degradation process for measurement and, <br /> if possible, analysis. <br /> ACKNOWLEDGMENTS <br /> The assistance of several people whose help made this evaluation easier' <br /> is here gratefully acknowledged. Tish Ashley of Animal Resource Services <br /> autoclaved hundreds of pounds of soil for us. Priscilla Galvez-Arango <br /> coordinated purchasing and other university procedures for us. And Linda <br /> Schneider of Sequoia Analytical helped shepherd our rather unusual samples <br /> through the EPA and nutrient tests. The cooperation and assistance provided by <br /> the staff of BCI and of Keith Kaufman, consulting environmental microbiologist, is <br /> 'r gratefully acknowledged. This project was completed with a grant provided by <br /> the Center for Evaluation of New Environmental Technology. <br />
