Basewide engineering evaluation-cost analysis for soil vapor extraction. Site specific document OU-D/site 3. Final report

OSTI ID:5598443

This document supports the use of soil vapor extraction (SVE) as the non-time-critical removal action for areas contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the vadose zone around Site 3, which is located in Operable Unit D (OU D). This SVE removal action is part of the initial basewide SVE removal action at McClellan Air Force Base (McAFB). The principal objective of the basewide SVE removal action is to achieve early risk reduction by removing a significant quantity of VOCs from soils in the vadose-zone, intercepting an exposure pathway, or preventing additional flux to groundwater. This document is a companion to the Basewide Engineering Evaluation-Cost Analysis (EE/CA) General Evaluation Document. The General Evaluation Document provides the long-term plan to standardize and streamline the use of SVE removal actions at McAFB by establishing SVE as the presumptive remedy for removal of VOCs from the vadose-zone; outlining a site selection methodology for SVE removal actions; and providing a baseline SVE system configuration and cost estimate.
