The bauxsol pilot test work plan received on June 29. Along with Bauxsol application methods this work plan discusses both monitoring well and lysimeter placement and sampling. The work plan was approved on July 19. Lysimeter installation began on July 21and was finished August 4. Sampling to establish pre-bauxsol application conditions was started the week of May 9, 2005 and continues. Horizontal drilling and injection well drilling for bauxsol application will begin August 15 Also, the I-99 partners were forwarded a discussion paper which outlines the relevant standards that will have to be met in both the surface water and the groundwater for any treatment system.
Additional evaluation of the groundwater in the vicinity of the Arbogast fill is being planned. This is also in the area where the new disposal location under the driveway was discovered. A private property owner adjacent to the I-99 project was contacted about installing a well on his land.
The monitoring wells were sampled the weeks of July 18 and August 2, but the results have not been received yet.. The results from the June 6 sampling of the monitoring wells has been received and they are consistent with the previous results. To date 68 OBAs have been drilled and 81 monitoring wells have been installed in and around the various fills.
