While remediating a historic fertilizer site along the Missouri River, Sand County Environmental’s excavation crew discovered stained soil with a petroleum odor. Soil samples revealed the source as a decades-old diesel fuel release. Fertilizer remediation continued while a collaborative plan was created between Sand County Environmental, the client, and the state regulatory agency. We considered bioremediation techniques, but due to time limitations the client opted to excavated petroleum soil and dispose of it in a landfill. While the unexpected finding provided staging issues and an interesting wrinkle in the original project, Sand County pivoted as needed and completed the petroleum excavation in accordance with the client’s and regulatory agency’s requests.
