| Site Investigations, Remediation &
Monitoring | Project Description:

H&A was retained to address groundwater pollution associated
with an underground storage tank at the facility in Corning
CA known as the Former K Tire Beacon. The site was
historically used as a gasoline fueling station. As often
is the case, UST can rust and develop leaks allowing the
tanks’ contents to be released into the subsurface soil
and/or groundwater.
H&A’s scope
of work includes the installation and monitoring of groundwater
wells and the development of remedial action to cleanup fuel
constituents. The selected remedy is injection of oxygen into
the shallow water table to enhance microbial growth to degrade
hydrocarbons. Oxygen is supplied utilizing ISOC technology.
Pollutant concentrations have declined. Ongoing work and
reporting in compliance with the California Regional Water
Quality Control Board has allowed the client to maintain full
reimbursement with the State Cleanup Fund Program. Site closure
or no further action is expected within 2 years.
