USACE Alaska CON/HTRW Remedial Investigation, Yakutat FUDS
Brice performed a Remedial Investigation (RI) at former Yakutat Air Base areas of concern (AOCs) E3 – Hospital Loop and M4 – Post Powerhouse, located near Yakutat, Alaska. The purpose of the RI was to delineate the nature and extent of petroleum, oil, and lubricants (POL) contamination in soil and groundwater, and collect the data Read More
USACE Alaska, EE/CA, Fort Glenn FUDS
Brice completed an engineering evaluation/cost analysis (EE/CA) process for four projects within the Fort Glenn Formerly Used Defense Sites (FUDS) on Umnak Island, Alaska. The goal of each EE/CA was to determine a removal action alternative to address known contamination at the Fort Glenn FUDS property. Sampling to date indicated that unacceptable risk exists; however, Read More
USACE Alaska, Groundwater Monitoring, Amaknak Pre-WWII Tank Farm FUDS
Brice conducted groundwater monitoring, monitoring well installation, monitoring well decommissioning, and a remedial action-operation (RA-O) phase at the Amaknak Pre-World War Two (WWII) Tank Farm, Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS). The project objectives were to verify that the selected remedies are still protective of human health and environment, and to provide the basis for the Read More
USCG RCRA LTM & Permit, FUDS, Base Kodiak
USCG Base Kodiak is under a RCRA Permit for post closure and corrective action to address various contaminants including petroleum, oils, and lubricants (POLs), metals, chlorinated solvents, PFAS, and pesticides from historic base operations. Brice was contracted to maintain regulatory compliance under the RCRA permit which involves environmental planning; post-closure LTM; inspection; sampling; surveying; reporting Read More
USCG Soil Removal Action Support, Point Loma LS
Brice was awarded a contract to conduct a soil delineation and support the removal action at the US Coast Guard (USCG) Point Loma Light Station in San Diego, CA. As part of the lighthouse restoration project, the USCG had determined that the near-surface soil surrounding the Point Loma Light Station, fog signal building, and USCG Read More
PFOS/PFAS Soil Treatability Study, Peterson AFB
Brice Engineering performed a field-scale Treatability Study to evaluate the effectiveness of soil washing for the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination, specifically perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), from soils derived from Aqueous Film-Forming Foam (AFFF) release sites at Peterson AFB. The results will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of Read More
Remedial Action and Groundwater Monitoring, Lincoln AFB, Nebraska
Brice performed initial groundwater monitoring and is conducting periodic product recovery to achieve site closure at the Former Lincoln Air Force Base FUDS in Lincoln, Nebraska. Free product remains in groundwater due to a release of JP-4 from a former 500-gallon underground storage tank (UST) used for containment of overflow of JP-4 from fuel filter Read More
Acid Storage Building Investigation, Nike Site Bay FUDS, Goose Bay, Alaska
Brice conducted a remedial investigation (RI) at the Acid Storage and Disposal Building (ASB) site located at the Nike Site Bay Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS) property in Goose Bay, Alaska. The Nike Site Bay facility along with its sister facilities, Nike Site Summit and Nike Site Point, were three Nike-Hercules Missile sites constructed near Read More
