Final Remedial Action Report for Lasagna™ Phase IIb In-Situ Remediation of Solid Waste Management Unit 91 at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, Paducah, Kentucky
This Final Remedial Action (RA) Report was written in accordance with the
requirements of the Federal Facilities Agreement (FFA) among the United States
Department of Energy (DOE), United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
and the Commonwealth of Kentucky. This report documents that the Phase IIb Lasagna™
In-situ Remediation Technology (Lasagna™) at Solid Waste Management Unit (SWMU) 91,
located at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP), has been implemented in
accordance with specifications and has met the performance standards specified in the
Record of Decision (ROD). The following elements are included:
- Site and Remedy Description,
- Chronology of Events,
- Performance Standards and Construction Quality Control,
- Construction Activities,
- Final Inspection,
- Certification Remedy is Operational and Functional,
- Operation and Maintenance, and
- Summary of Project Costs

Rapid Commercialization Initiative (RCI) Report
Environmental regulators from seven states and the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) collaborated with the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) and an industrial consortium to demonstrate the performance of an
innovate environmental soil remediation technology, named Lasagna ™. To
assess cost and performance for removing trichloroethylene (TCE) from
low-permeability soils, the demonstration was at DOE's Paducah, KY, site and it
was successful. The states, EPA, DOE's Office of Science and Technology, and
the industrial consortium led by Monsanto collaborated through the Rapid
Commercialization Initiative (RCI), an interagency-interstate partnership.
The Southern States Energy Board facilitated state regulatory
participation.
Industrial partners in the consortium are Monsanto, General
Electric, and Dupont. A technology verification statement, the final product,
reported performance and cost results, listed contacts for participating
regulators, and was signed by all partnership participants. The last letter of
concurrence has just arrived at Monsanto. States not having a statute
authorizing verification of technology performance preferred to concur with
rather than sign the report.

The present Topical Report for Task
#3.1 summarizes the electrode and treatment zone emplacement technology
developed by the DuPont Company. |
Contamination in low-permeability soils
poses a significant technical challenge to in-situ remediation efforts.
Poor accessibility to the contaminants and difficulty in delivery of treatment
reagents have rendered existing in-situ treatments such as
bioremediation, vapor extraction, and pump and treat rather ineffective when
applied to low permeability soils present at many contaminated sites. The
technology is an integrated in-situ treatment in which established
geotechnical methods are used to install degradation zones directly in the
contaminated soil and electro-osmosis is utilized to move the contaminants back
and forth through those zones until the treatment is completed. |
