Abstract
The primary objective of the Phase I dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) characterization discussed in this document was to assess the status of DNAPL beneath A/M-Area at the Savannah River Site (SRS). The initial characterization phase consisted of: (1) geological data collection to more precisely define the controlling geologic features, and (2) physical/chemical measurements in existing wells. Additionally, background and historical information from the unit (e.g., operating history and detailed vadose zone characterization studies) were examined, with particular attention to implications for DNAPL occurrence and distribution. Use of minimally invasive technologies was the prime focus for Phase 1.Keywords
