Client Challenge
A stream isolation/groundwater extraction and treatment system (GWTS) is in operation at the Galaxy-Spectron Superfund site, a former solvent recycling facility. A large industrial PRP Group is responsible for environmental compliance and cleanup, under US EPA and state regulatory oversight. Uninterrupted system operation is required to keep contaminated groundwater from reaching an adjacent stream. Groundwater is passively collected in a series of sumps connected to perforated piping located beneath the stream liner.
Client Challenge
