IV. ADDITIONAL REGIONAL STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS/ATTACHMENTS (Optional / If Needed)
There is an existing GW remediation system in place at this facility under NPDES General Permit #
NGC510542. This is a Pump and Treat system that is currently in operation.
A separate AS/VS pilot test under permit WI0300342 has also been performed at this facility. The purpose of
the pilot test was to eventuallyplace the current Pump and Treat system.
This event will involve the injection of fewer than 30 ,gallons of ambient water at low pressure into an existing
MW to determine if bio-degradation of MTBE can be initiated through the injection of microbial populated
GW into a well with limited microbes.
The iniection water for this test will be extracted from onsite well MHR-37T. Testina indicates that well
MHR-37T has a substantial population of active microbes than the receptor well. No enhancement to the
extracted water will be performed prior to the injection of this water into well MHR-lT. The hope is that by
extracting the ambient water from well MHR-37T, bio-degradation of the MTBE constituent may be enhanced.
The dve will provide the abilitv to trace the dilution of the blue color as it travels through the alreadv
established monitor well network.
A review of the well logs presented in the application does not indicate the presence of any onsite fracture
zones that may become an avenue of transport for the injectant water. The receptor well (MHR-1T) is
gpproximately 120 ft. for the onsite creek.
