Organic Contaminant Control in a Gulf Coast Aquifer

TRRP Training: 2022 Program

presented by: GSI Environmetal Inc.

Texas Risk Reduction Program regulations (TRRP; 30 TAC 350) establish consistent risk-based protocols for assessment and response to soil, groundwater, or surface water impacts associated with environmental releases of regulated wastes or substances.

Presented by GSI Environmental Inc., this popular and informative training series is a must for professionals who need a working understanding of TRRP and those needing to stay up-to-date with the latest TCEQ TRRP guidance and policies.

TRRP Training Course (2 Days): Provides an overview of the TRRP framework and step-by-step training on property assessment and response action procedures established under the TRRP rule

Attendees will become acquainted with rules, key guidance and policies covering affected property assessments, protective concentration levels, and response actions. The course material presents strategies for efficient project management in compliance with TRRP and explains the various report forms adopted by TCEQ.

Abstract

Download

A Gulf Coast electronic products company stored spent organic solvents in a buried concrete tank. Observation wells installed adjacent to the tank detected solvents in the saturated silty sand underlying the site. Additional observation wells were installed to define the areal extent of the contaminant plume and determine its direction and rate of movement. A pumping withdrawal system was designed with distance-drawdown data obtained from a pumping test on wells located in the center of the plume. Withdrawal of 30 gpm from each of three existing observation wells will produce a hydraulic sink over the entire areal extent of the contaminant plume. Treatability studies indicated that passing the withdrawn groundwater through an existing waste water aeration tank was the least expensive treatment alternative as compared to building a new packed column or using an existing cooling tower to air strip the withdrawn groundwater. The withdrawal and treatment systems were put into operation in March 1984. Routine monitoring is planned to determine the effectiveness of the withdrawal system.
