You called yesterday about the soil samples you had previously examined. I'm sending this email so you get my email address and my mailing address: The Colinas Group, Inc. 509 North Virginia Avenue Winter Park, FL 32789 Could you send me a short letter (with your letterhead) commenting on the feasibility of using one of your products to clean petroleum residues in the type of soil samples we (QORE) sent you. Thank you. Jerry,

I am receiving a sample of Bio dry a powder, I would be interested in testing other manufacturers enzymes. one thought is would a liquid enzyme get better penetration? also in the case of liquid enzymes my understanding is you can wake them up by mixing with warm water. my first interest is will it be acceptable to the environmental managers in regards to storm drain runoff if the residue goes to the drain, and of course would it work for oil stains caused by residue on concrete and asphalt. then of course price and minimum quantity on orders. whatever samples you send me I will be happy to document there effectiveness against other product that we test. I expect the process I use will become nationwide soon, there is good potential for volume if you have an enzyme product that works well with our system. sorry I am unable to give any details about our system at this time but would be happy to share it with you in the future. if you don't have any products appropriate for this I would still invite any feedback,suggestions or leads to other manufacturers, Thanx ps the oxidizer mentioned in you're blog I would like to test it on oil stains in concrete as well, after 40 hours would it be a hazard in regards to storm drain runoff? BTW Im not a microbiologist my experience is in the field so if you're response gets too technical I might get lost in the verbage, thanx again, Hi

We drill 8 inch diameter wells with 2 inch schd 40 slotted pipe with granular sand outer fill for monitoring wells but it seems prohibitively expensive and a whole bunch of holes if drilled on 6 foot centers. Interesting. I need to survey one of our really dirty sites and see what this would mean cost wise. The cost would be considered against SVE - Sparge equipment over time. Sounds like it isn't so expensive after all.....maybe...... Drilling over the area of a gas station on 6 foot centers will be costly if it is not done with a GeoProb.

Thought I was going to read some "go to sleep" data on bugs and now I am thinking about past friends and buds as you do now and again when you reach for recon and he isn't there physically, but, you know, that dog will always be with you, sitting right there watching your back, and, watching for cats et al.......
