Remediation Design Considerations <br /> • Rough estimates regarding the hydrocarbon mass in groundwater, soil, and <br /> the capillary fringe showed that most of the hydrocarbon mass is located <br /> beneath the site in isolated soil columns located between 15 and 45 feet <br /> bgs For the most part, impact appears to reside in soils of relatively low <br /> permeability <br /> • Two years of SVE were completed, significantly changing the soil chenus- <br /> try quality Approximately 12,000 pounds of TPPH-g were removed, and <br /> influence appeared to cover the affected area But, based on data provided <br /> above, a hnuted soil volume is still impacted with hydrocarbons It appears <br /> variations in soil permeability to air flow, competing pressure gradients, <br /> extraction well screen placement (relatively recent dewatering has exposed <br /> volumes once submerged), and the chenucal characteristics of the target <br /> compounds controlled the degree and pace of remediation <br /> • If volatilization (equilibrium) is the mechanism by which vapor-phase <br /> hydrocarbons are generated, it follows that the loss of gasoline components <br /> from the soil began with the most volatile (low molecular weight) gasoline <br /> compounds and moved on toward the least volatile (lugh molecular weight <br /> 3201337BICAP_AMD DOC 15 November 30, 1995 <br />
