Permitting

After the treatment program is designed and the contracts issued, permits must be researched and applied for. Each site is subject to different state and federal rules and regulations, thus permitting is typically the responsibility of the client.

Work Plan

During the permitting process, GCI develops a site-specific work plan that details the treatment program. The work plan describes the exact procedures that will be followed by GCI during the treatment program. It includes:

• The injector installation including:
• Injector spacing and grid design
• Screened intervals of the injectors
• Injector construction (materials)
  
• The injection activities, including:
• Mobilization
• Injection
  • Reagent Proportioning
  • Reagent Concentrations
  • Injectable volume per day
  • Process Monitoring
  • Pre- and Post-Treatment Sampling and Analytical frequency
• Demobilization
  
• A final report be provided to the client following the treatment program.

In addition to the injection work plan, a site-specific health and safety plan is developed for the site. This document is developed based on the characteristics of the contamination at the site and the concentrations of contaminants at the site. It will include hospital route information, contact numbers, MSDS, and various other health and safety procedures to follow while on-site.
