[CPEO-MEF] Vertical vs. horizontal well technologies...

[StellaVB@aol.com]

The unending discussions about technologies/methodologies vs. cost
effective measures led me to:

www.ngwa.org

and a very interesting article on horizontal wells used on JFK in the
Summer 2001 issue of Horizontal News titled "lessons learned at JFK" 
(ignore the 'for members only' notation).  

Aerobic cometabolic biodegradation (developed in the late 1990's by Dr. 
Perry McCarty at Stanford University who ran pilot scale tests for EPA 
at Moffett Field in Mountain View, CA as well as used at Savannah River 
Labs and in Pinellas County, FL) web search showed the capability (and 
success) to mix cost effective measures (short term vs. long term) with 
deep concern for the public and environment.  I would hope to see this 
technology utilized at more contaminated sites in the future!
