SUBJECT:
JOINT AEG-ASCE SYMPS0IUM ON HAZARD 0US WASTE DISPOSAL:
SITE ELEVATION, DESIGN, AND MONITORING, TRIP REPORT Date of Meeting: May 14, 1982 Place of Meeting:
International Hotel, B-W International Airport, Baltimore, Maryland
Purpose:
To establish contact with and learn from persons technically involved in hazardous waste disposal.
Attendees:
See Attachment A.
Summary: Two papers presented basics and some important considerations for construction of monitoring wells.
Of particular interest to WM is the agreement of both speakers that monitoring wells should be gravel packed and that the area of interest should be well defined. The area to be sampled should be small enough not to cause problems with dilution. An interesting non-radiological example was a CC1, spill which sank to the bottom of the aquifer. USGS evidence at SheffieTd suggests that tritiated water " floats" at the top of the aquifer, or at least that mixing is not rapid downward.
One paper, by Dr. Amir Metry, presented case histories of various remedial action programs that Weston Environmental Consultants had undertaken or were planning. Of interest to WM was a remedial action project related to UMTRAP.
An on-site burial ground is proposed which bears a great deal of similarity to staff conceptual designs for waste facilities. The design includs a layered, wick effect cap, semi-permeable liner and something we can't always achieve, a compacted fill to minimize subsidence. Dr. Metry expressed some interest in visiting NRC to discuss areas of interest and can be reached at (215) 692-3030.

The Army Environmental Hygiene Agency presented the preliminary results of three of their monitoring and characterization activities. Their work is somewhat rudimentary but based on sound principles.
It shows that EPA's one upgradient and three down-gradient well approach is often only enough to identify a problem but not enough to characterize the problem.
This situation is similar to that at Sheffield. The agency is located at Aberdeen Proving Ground and it might be beneficial to visit there.
A contact there is Mr. Gary Nemeth, (301)-671-2024.
Mr. David Miller, a principal of Geraghty and Miller, spoke about a
" petroleum product" spill in Brooklyn, NY. The only thing of interest is that the spill took place in the 1930's or 1940's and was only discovered in the middle 1970's.
The product is being skimmed off the top and refined.
