Long Term Operation & Maintenance
at the City of Rhinelander Closed Municipal Landfill

Sand Creek Consultants, Inc. has been performing operation and maintenance duties at the closed Rhinelander Landfill since 1999. Duties include operation and maintenance of five groundwater extraction wells.

Unique site conditions have resulted in heavy iron buildup on some of the GWE pumps, which requires diligent monitoring of pump performance and cleaning of pumps when necessary. LBA is routinely added to the pumping wells to prevent biofouling.

Maintenance of a phytoremediation plantation consisting of nearly 5,000 poplar and willow trees is also on-going at this landfill.
