    The soil was disced for mixing and aeration on a
    regular basis.

    Initial Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon Concentrations


    in the soil averaged 4,000 ppm. The target for
    cleanup was 100 ppm which was achieved in 11
    months. The soil is covered with native plant life
    and could be safely used for growing edible crops.

    Some native plant life begins to inhabit the site as


    the contaminant is degraded.
