Problem: Massive liquid petroleum pipeline release required evacuation of residents due to imminent danger of explosions.
Action: Conduct soil gas survey to determine areal extent of contamination; install monitor wells based upon soil gas results to delineate vertical extent of contamination; design remediation system and monitor clean-up.
Target Clean-up Goal: Total BTEX < 5 ppm.
Results: Total BTEX in ground water actually
reduced to < 3 ppm by September, 1992 (4 months following assessment).
