A new client contracted ReRem Equipment to supply pumping and metering equipment for a 72-hour aquifer pump-test. We can do that. They requested a 100 GPM assembly with setup only. We provided delivery and setup services and left site. 48-hours later we received a request for higher capacity pump and data collection assistance, we can do that. I suggested a local hydrogeology firm to deploy data-loggers to reduce labor costs. At 200 GPM a reasonable draw-down was induced and the dataloggers captured the draw-down at distance. While the total cost was slightly higher, my client (and theirs) was pleased with the outcome and resolution of data; fewer supply wells are required and the sub-division may contain more residences (based on the specific capacity of the tested well).

Many environmental excavation projects, including tank replacement / piping upgrade / brownfield redevelopment, require hydraulic control of VOC-impacted groundwater. Off-site options are slow and expensive. We provide on-site treatment technologies to qualified clients, allowing continuous treatment processes of 25 to 300 gallons per minute.
ReRem Equipment provides equipment rental services, mobilization & setup, client-operator training and air-stripper modeling output for SPDES permit support. Our services in conjunction with your labor result in timely & cost-effective onsite treatment of VOC-contaminated groundwater. Unit process costs, including our services and rentals, typically fall within the $0.04 to $0.25 per gallon! The resulting savings keep your project on-time, on-budget, and on-board. WIN-WIN-WIN.
