Project Type:
Comprehensive project for preliminary and detailed investigation, data update on groundwater quality in pre-existing devices on the site, quantitative risk analysis, and a potential remediation project for future urban development.
Conceptual Framework:
- Former tar and derivative production plant with both aboveground and underground tanks containing various chemicals
- Major fuel fire on the site in 1960
- Later converted to a glue and adhesive manufacturing facility
- Contamination by TPH, PAH, and CHC in two distinct hotspots
- Hotspots located in the SE and NE areas
Actions:
- Sampling of groundwater from pre-existing devices
- Detailed investigation through installation of 6 piezometers with soil and water sampling
- Pumping tests
- Subsurface vapor sampling via static extraction
- Preparation of an environmental improvement project
- Consulting during the site’s purchase-sale process
Potential Remediation Pathways:
- Selective excavation during the urban development project
