OPPORTUNITY

Site redevelopment necessitated the assessment of arsenic within soil and groundwater released from former cattle dipping operations at a historic livestock operation.

SOLUTION

  • A grid network was established to facilitate collection of soil and groundwater samples.
  • 44 soil samples were collected from 18 locations and tested for total arsenic.
  • Three groundwater monitoring wells were constructed, and samples collected from each well were chemically analyzed for total arsenic.


SUCCESS

  • Arsenic impacts within soil were found to be limited to the immediate vicinity of the former cattle dipping vat location.
  • Arsenic concentrations within groundwater were below regulatory limits.
