| description abstract | A land-farming project to remove diesel fuel from soil, which showed extremely variable total-petroleum-hydrocarbon (TPH) concentrations, is presented. Experiments showed that the variability was not an artifact of the TPH analytical method, but reflected the random distribution of contaminant in the soil. It was found that the data were well fit by a lognormal distribution. The implications of the sampling statistics on the remediation standard are discussed using the data, the lognormal distribution, and the remediation standard imposed on this particular remediation project. | |
