Groundwater Circulating Well Technology Assessment
1999. W.E. Allmon; L.G. Everett (ARCADIS Geraghty & Miller, Santa Barbara, CA); and others. Sponsor: Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP). NRL/PU/6115-99-384, 82 pp.

The objective of this report is to document the successes and shortcomings of GCW system performance based on a survey of demonstrations at various Federal and public sites. An additional objective is to document and develop guidelines for the use of the technology and make recommendations for additional data requirements to either support or argue against the use of this method for particular contaminant and hydrogeologic applications.

Technical Protocol for Implementing the Groundwater Circulating Well Technology for Site Remediation, Draft
Environmental Security Technology Certification Program, CU-9602-TR-01, 100 pp, 1997

This protocol was written to assist the user in all aspects of implementing the ground-water circulation well (GCW) technology for use at any given site by guiding the user through a process to evaluate the feasibility of using a GCW system; to select the appropriate system configuration; to develop a site-specific design; to install, operate, and monitor the system; and to evaluate system performance.
