The project report contains two types of reports. The first type is a quarterly internal progress report. The purpose of the internal reports is to keep all members of the research team abreast with developments in each area. The second type is a semi-annual report that is transmitted to DOE and PNL. Its main purpose is to inform the project sponsors of the research-team's progress and plans. This report is the first semi-annual report. The project has four primary areas: biodegradation of poorly soluble organic contaminants, dual-limitation kinetics of electron donors and acceptors, two-dimensional modeling of biofilm reactions in nonhomogeneous porous media, and biologically induced clogging in porous media. Progress and plans for each are described. 28 refs., 14 figs.
