Shield was retained to provide an environmental ssessment of chlorinated solvent plume located in the bedrock of the Carolina Slate Belt. Shield reviewed previous issued reports and subsequently expanded the soil and groundwater investigation to provide vertical and lateral characterization of the constituent plumes that have migrated offsite. Multiple assessment techniques have been utilized, including surface geophysics, a Mobile Interface Probe (MIP) survey, and trenching to identify additional source areas.
Buried drums containing waste product were identified, characterized, and removed from the site. A remediation plan for the drum site excavation was prepared for future implementation.
Based on our knowledge of the local geology and hydrogeology, in combination with their experience in characterization of fractured bedrock regimes, Shield has been able to complete the difficult delineation of the constituent plumes emanating from the site.
