Figure 1. Concentrations of benzene in groundwater before and one-year after EHC-O injection.

EHC-O at 14.5-percent solution were injected at each point as the rods were retracted from the resulting borehole. Exact injection point locations and volume of injected solution varied depending on site conditions and soil matrix. EHC-O provides a source of nitrogen in the form of ammonia to ensure adequate nitrogen is present for the in-

digenous microorganisms to utilize the available carbon (i.e., hydrocarbons). The Result Approximately 4 months following EHC-O injection, the concentration of benzene in groundwater decreased by >99% in both monitoring wells. One year after treatment, monitoring showed that the concentration of benzene, and
