Dear Mr. Conway:
In response to our meeting on site adjacent to the Rumford River,_ we are pro-_
posing the follow _ - — ___ PP P fig fig program of action based on our apparent concensus of
opinion as to the current ground water contamination situation.
We propose to:
1. Deepen the current recovery well by a minimum of seven feet using a
well point or similar device, continue pumping operations, and
determine if increased oil recovery is effected.
2. I£ indicated by success in step i above, install a "reverse leaching
field" at right angles to the assumed direction of contamination move-
ment to facilitate movement of oil into the existing recovery well.
We will notify your department when step one has been completed and obtain
your opinion as to the advisability of proceeding with step 2. If step 2
is undertaken, we will arrange for you or your representative to be present
during excavation.
Thank you for your continued assistance in dealing with this problem.
Yours
/Vvery trul�y,A
