PlumeStop Shuts Down Pump & Treat System at Superfund Site

Case study highlights:

• 224,800 lbs. of PlumeStop colloidal activated carbon were safely injected into the target treatment zones
• PlumeStop treatment prevents plume migration and protects nearby community drinking water wells
• This sustainable approach eliminates the massive carbon footprint created by outdated pump-and-treat approaches

This case study reviews a large federally operated Superfund site where REGENESIS Remediation Services (RRS) completed a large-scale PlumeStop application to eliminate the risk of exposure to chlorinated solvents. Amentum, a leading American governmental and commercial services contractor, is the responsible party’s contractor. Amentum has worked with the client at this site for years, providing oversight and management of their contracting partners. The project’s sensitive nature required an enhanced awareness of health, safety, and security issues and seamless coordination between RRS, Amentum, and their client.
