Sand County Environmental, Inc.
Sand County Environmental, Inc., is a nationally-recognized environmental engineering firm providing a full array of phytoremediation and traditional remediation solutions to private and public service sectors. Our work is most often conducted for owners of landfills, lenders, retail and wholesale agricultural chemical storage facilities, local and state governments, and other property owners where soil, groundwater, or stormwater management issues are of concern.
Geologic cross-sections are created to visualize site geology. The soil was observed at a series of soil borings in a line from Point F towards Point F’. The geology was interpreted between each point (similar to “connect the dots”), creating a two-dimensional representation of the world beneath our feet. Comparing multiple cross-sections gives us a three-dimensional understanding of the geology of the land. Soil-vapor and groundwater monitoring points were installed in most of the soil borings, allowing us to collect data across the site and to understand which geologic unit our data are coming from.
We will be closed Monday, May 31, in observance of Memorial Day. Have a safe and Happy Memorial Day weekend!
Sand County Environmental installed 13 monitoring wells to evaluate the effectiveness of a pump-and-treat system that removes carbon tetrachloride from groundwater. The wells will be used in an aquifer test to determine the area of groundwater captured by the remedial system. This, in turn, will narrow in on the groundwater plume and help us refine a source-targeted remediation strategy.
