Natural Attenuation of Explosives in Groundwater.  This cost and
performance report was published by the Department of Defense Environmental
Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP).  It summarizes a
demonstration designed to define and optimize the data collection and
processing procedures for evaluation, selection, and
implementation of MNA for explosives. The demonstration was conducted at a
former waste disposal lagoon site at the Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant,
Minden, LA. Thirty wells were monitored quarterly over a two-year period.
A cone penetrometry sampling event was also conducted to refine the
conceptualization of the site hydrogeology and to collect aquifer material
for development of microbial biomarker techniques for tracking attenuation
processes. A conceptual model of the contaminant plume was developed and a
numerical model was used to predict future plume migration and mass [June
1999, 37 pages].  View or download at

limited number of hard copies of ESTCP Cost and Performance
Reports are available from (703) 736-4549.
