SITE CHARACTERIZATION PROJECTS
New Madrid County:
Conducted a detailed hydrogeologic site investigation for a proposed
utility waste facility involving drilling and sampling 125 borings and
64 monitoring wells to characterize the geology and groundwater in
unconsolidated materials comprising the alluvial plain of the Missouri
Bootheel. Final report submittal and approval by state
regulatory
authority secured within specified timeframes. Contact Mr. Jerry
Bindel, Associated Electric Cooperative, Inc., Springfield, Missouri,
417-881-1204.
St. Charles County:
In charge of the
hydrogeologic investigation within an old limestone quarry that was
proposed as a demolition waste facility. Field work consisted,
in part,
of drilling and installing four deep groundwater monitoring wells and
three additional coreholes in Mississippian age bedrock. A
summary
report detailing the results of the investigation was submitted and
subsequently approved by the state regulatory authority. Contact Mr.
Michael Roberts, Metro Fill Development, L.L.C., St. Louis, Missouri,
314-835-1515.
Camden County:
Completed a field
investigation for a proposed solid waste facility located in central
Missouri. Project required extensive drilling and coring within
Ordovician age limestone and dolomite as well as the installation of
piezometers to determine groundwater flow direction in a potentially
karstic terrane. Contact Mr. Lowell Patterson, P.E., Emery Sapp
&
Sons, Inc., Columbia, Missouri 573-445-8331.
Franklin County:
Currently conducting a detailed geologic and hydrologic investigation
of a large proposed utility waste facility near the Missouri River in
east-central Missouri. Field work included the installation of
97
piezometers, drilling and sampling, aquifer testing, and water level
monitoring to characterize alluvial deposits derived from the Missouri
River floodplain. Project is ongoing with the final report
scheduled
for completion in November 2010. Contact Mr. Paul Reitz, P.E.,
Reitz
& Jens, Inc., St. Louis, Missouri, 314-993-4132.
