Improvement of the groundwater intercept and treatment systems

The scope of this project was twofold: to implement process improvements to the North Boundary Groundwater Intercept and Treatment System, and to construct groundwater recharge trenches to increase the reinjection rate of treated groundwater.

This system treated and recharged 135 million gallons during 1995.

Assessment of the Northwest Boundary Groundwater Intercept and Treatment System and implementation of extensions to the northeast and southwest have been completed.

This was accomplished to prevent any alluvial groundwater from bypassing the system.

In 1995, the Northwest Boundary System treated and reinjected approximately 545 million gallons of water.
