Request for Information

Washington Closure Hanford intends to issue a Request for Proposal for a work scope that includes conducting a bioventing pilot test at a petroleum (diesel oil) contaminated soil site located in the 100-N Area of the U. S. Department of Energy Hanford Site, in Washington state. The source of the contamination is from an 80,000 gallon surface spill. The petroleum contamination is known to extend over a wide area and extends through the soil column to groundwater. Drilling of the seven wells (two injection and five monitoring) will be performed by others prior to start of the bioventing work scope. Specific bioventing activities include furnishing necessary facilities, equipment, labor, materials, supplies, and tools perform the work scope. The specific technical services include connecting bioventing equipment (e.g., blower pump, tubing, connectors) to the wells, collecting several phases of initial testing including baseline soil gas samples, respirometry testing, and air injection testing. This work scope also includes collecting periodic samples during the performance period, data reduction, submitting monthly reports, and operation & maintenance of the pilot system for up to six months. It is anticipated that the period of performance for this work will begin early in calendar year 2009.

If you have experience in this type of bioremediation testing, and would like to participate in the planned work, please contact the Subcontract Specialist at the phone number or email address above.
