In situ bioaugmentation and biostimulation experiments were conducted at the USN Hydrocarbon National Environmental Test Site at Port Hueneme, CA (PH), where the dissolved MTBE groundwater plume is over 1500 m long. Laboratory microcosm experiments prepared with PH groundwater showed that MTBE was rapidly metabolized (t1/2 ≤ 2 weeks) after inoculation with a high-activity MTBE-degrading bacterial consortium (MC-100). Microcosm studies also showed that natural ether degraders were present at PH; however, the rates were 3−5 times slower than with the bioaugmented treatment. The field pilot test was conducted to assess the efficacy of creating an MTBE biobarrier by inoculating with MC-100 and maintaining well-oxygenated conditions. Three test plots located in the MTBE-only portion of the plume included control (no treatment), O2-only (intermittent O2 gas injection), and O2 + bioaugmented (MC-100) zones. Initial MTBE and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations in the plots prior to treatment varied from 2 to 9 m...
