摘要

This Pilot Test Work Plan presents the scope of two in situ bioventing pilot tests for treatment of fuel contaminated soils at Installation Restoration Program (IRP) Sites 3 and 18 at Beale AFB, California: Fire Protection Training Area (Site 3); and, Bulk Fuel Storage Area (Site 18). The location of all 24 IRP sites at Beale AFB, including Sites 3 and 18, are shown on Figure 1.1. These pilot tests have three primary objectives: (1) to assess the potential for supplying oxygen throughout the contaminated soil depth, (2) to determine the rate at which indigenous microorganisms will degrade fuel when stimulated by oxygen rich soil gas, and (3) to evaluate the potential for sustaining these rates of biodegradation until fuel contamination is remediated below regulatory standards.
