Common use of Removal or Relocation/Replacement of Existing Groundwater Monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇ and Remediation System Pipelines Clause in Contracts

Removal or Relocation/Replacement of Existing Groundwater Monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇ and Remediation System Pipelines. Both the Navy and MEW Companies currently operate groundwater remediation systems located on the NRP, as described in Section 2.4. The layout of major features of the existing groundwater treatment systems are shown on Figure 5. Components of the remediation systems include groundwater extraction ▇▇▇▇▇, single and double-contained pipelines, air relief structures, electrical power and instrumentation conduits, fiber-optic instrument systems, electrical field control panels, leak detection systems, radio frequency communication links, settlement pin monuments, groundwater treatment systems, and a network of groundwater monitoring ▇▇▇▇▇. The location and depth of existing groundwater monitoring and extraction ▇▇▇▇▇ are identified in the Environmental Baseline Survey Reports prepared for the NRP (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2000a; 2001 a; 2001 c). The Navy and MEW Companies are required to operate the groundwater remediation systems on a continuous basis except for required maintenance. Therefore, consideration must be given during the design of NRP development projects to identify measures to protect the integrity of the remediation systems and allow for their continued operation while minimizing any shutdowns of system components. 5.4.1.
