Shells soil vapor extraction (SVE) system is continuing to remove underground contaminant vapors and, in 2012, was expanded into the Roxana Public Works Yard. Shell and their consultant, URS, have also replaced the temporary internal combustion engine (ICE) units, used to destroy the collected vapors, with a thermal oxidation unit. They have also installed additional vapor monitoring points, groundwater monitoring wells and collected soil borings in an effort to further characterize underground contamination in both areas. | | | | Date Created: | 03 19 2013 | | | | Agency ID: | Update #5 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000050503 Original UID: 168849 FIRST WORD: Wood | |
