The <br /> Report discusses the groundwater monitoring activities conducted in October 2002 and February 2003. <br /> The Work Plan proposes to install two monitoring wells to further delineate the extent of petroleum <br /> pollution, phased approach for the application of nitrate to the surface as a remedial alternative, and <br /> modifications to Monitoring and Reporting Program(MRP)No. 5-01-821. <br /> KMEP will collect groundwater samples from monitoring well SP/M-1 for bench scale testing to <br /> determine the amount of nitrate to apply to the surface and the rate of petroleum degradation. If bench <br /> scale testing results are favorable, KMEP will apply nitrate on a 30-foot square area for a three-month <br /> period to test the effectiveness of the nitrate solution. Depending on precipitation during the time of the <br /> application, KMEP may apply the nitrate using a sprinkler system. If the bench-scale testing results <br /> show modifications are needed to the proposed design or are not favorable,KMEP will submit a report <br /> of the bench scale testing results. <br /> Regional Board staff concurs with the Work Plan. By 14 July 2003, submit comments on the attached <br /> draft MRP. If bench scale testing results are not favorable,by 25 July 2003, please submit the results of <br /> the bench scale testing and modifications to the nitrate application design, if needed. If the bench scale <br /> testing results are favorable,by 5 September 2003, submit an investigation report detailing the <br /> monitoring well installations and one-month status summary of the nitrate application results.
