Environmental Services Engineering & Technical Support monitors over 160 wells located on or around active or closed landfills and the Price Service Center. These wells are sampled for a wide range of organic and inorganic constituents including volatile organic compounds such as PCE and TCE, and gasoline compounds such as benzene and toluene. Through this monitoring program, Environmental Services Engineering & Technical Support is able to delineate the extent of known contaminant plumes and track the success of the remediation programs used at the various sites.

Among the major sites that Environmental Services Engineering & Technical Support monitors regularly are:

Broadway-Pantano WQARF site
Harrison Landfill
Los Reales Landfill
Price Service Center
Rio Nuevo Project Area
