Nonionic surfactant to be used as flushing solution to treat VOCs, SVOCs and BTEX. (Project was<br />
started, but put on hold as of April 1995). On-site system for cleaning leachates and reconstituting<br />
surfactants. Site is actively used for machining operations. Soils underlying the site are very<br />
clayey, and are contaminated with a mixture of chlorinated organic solvents and BTEX at levels of<br />
1,000 to 2,000 ppm. The water table is located approximately ten feet below the ground surface.<br />
There is a clay barrier about ten feet below the ground surface. The treatment zone will be isolated<br />
with slurry walls. Due to relatively low permeability of the soil, a dense network of feed trenches<br />
alternated with extraction wells will be used to contact the flushing solution within this zone.<br />
This project had been on hold since 1995. There were no plans to restart the project at that time.<br />
