Rio Blanco County, CO Hydrocarbons were identified seeping into a perennial stream that resulted in the state regulatory agency issuing an administrative order to determine sources for the seeps, as well as the extent of impact to groundwater and surface water. Direct push technology was employed to collect groundwater samples, which were analyzed in the … Read More
Lea County, NM Subsurface investigations were performed at seventeen spill sites involving the release of natural gas liquids (NGL) from underground pipelines. Investigations were conducted using direct-push, hollowstem auger and rotary drilling techniques to collect soil samples to define the vertical and horizontal extent of impact. Soil samples were analyzed by field and laboratory methods, … Read More
Moffett County, CO A complaint filed with the state oil and gas regulatory agency alleged potential impacts to soil and groundwater from a plugged oil well located in an environmentally sensitive area. Direct-push sampling technology was employed to collect groundwater samples from a shallow aquifer, which was analyzed in the field to efficiently map the … Read More
Big Horn County, WY Several pits were permitted under the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) and were used as oil and gas separation pits. A subsurface investigation was performed using direct-push technology to assess potential impacts to soil and shallow groundwater, and concluded a groundwater impact to a limited area. A risk assessment was … Read More
Lincoln County, WY This project involved delineating the extent of a methanol release at an oil and gas production facility. A soil gas survey was performed using directpush technology to initially assess the extent of shallow impacts, and deeper impacts to soil and rock were evaluated using hollowstem auger techniques. The limit of impact was … Read More
