- Julie was a geologist at two of Kern County’s largest landfills (China Grade and Bakersfield City Landfill). Site activities involved investigating the complex geologic and hydrogeologic regime in the Kern County formation where groundwater occurs from 300 to 700 feet below grade and is affected by faulting and natural petroleum accumulations. Julie assisted with the installation and monitoring of groundwater monitoring wells and unique dual completion lysimeter/neutron probe access tube vadose zone monitoring wells during completion of Solid Waste Assessment Test programs. The 200 feet deep dual vadose zone monitoring units were installed at areas where leachate migration was indicated. Groundwater monitoring wells were installed to maximum depths of 650 feet below grade.
- Subsequent projects at the Bakersfield City Landfill were focused on the final closure of the facility and included a burn dump assessment, development of final Closure/Post Closure Maintenance Plans, a comprehensive Public Participation Program, and an Environmental Impact Report. The burn dump assessment occurred adjacent to and within the backyards of 20 private residences located adjacent to the landfill. The assessment included a health risk assessment of dioxins and hazardous concentrations of several metals. As submitted, the plans allowed the burn dump area risks to be mitigated by placement of the final landfill cover
