PCE Groundwater Modeling for Conceptual Remedy Design
For a PRP Group at a Superfund site; Gradient developed a conceptual design of a groundwater pump-and-treat remedy using a 3-D numerical groundwater contaminant transport model. We calibrated the numerical model using 10 years of existing groundwater quality data. We then used the model to develop an optimal remedial system design. US EPA and USGS approved Gradient's model and remedial design after rejecting competing pla
