VOC Pilot Treatiblity Study: Beginning near the end of September, environmental consultans for CSV installed injection monitoring wells to remediate volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the area adjacent to Lot 1 excavatation completed in fall 2008. Results of previous pilot tests indicate that concentrations of volatile organic compounds can be successfully reduced in groundwater underlying the property. Therefore, additional pilot testing will take place to further evaluate remediation technology options.
Field activities will include:
- Install monitoring wells (approximately 15) using a drill rig
- Install 60 injection wells using a drill rig
- Inject remediation products into the groundwater at 60 injection wells and 76
temporary points
Injection at the RFS wells is expected to commence around November 23, 2009.
Work will occur in the northwest area of the property, including a portion of the
University of California Richmond Field Station, 46th street (running between the UC
Field Station and Campus Bay properties), the eastern parking lot next to the green
house structure, and on Montgomery Street (northeast corner of the intersection with
50th street).
For more information, see the DTSC Work Notice.
No excavation activities scheduled. Ongoing activities at the former Zeneca site include quaterly groundwater monitoring, marsh restoration, weed abatement on the temporary cap, and pilot testing for treatment of volatile organic compounds in soil and groundwater.

No remediation activities are currently planned at the RFS.
Restoration continues in Western Stege Marsh and the upland coastal prairie with transplanting of marsh and upland starts. See the Monthly Summary Reports below for more information.
A draft Field Sampling Workplan (FSW) was submitted to DTSC in February 2009. The final FSW will propose additional field investigations to start in early 2010. |
