| SELECTED PROJECTS |
Chelsea, MA: installed approximately 160 soil borings to 4' and several more to 16' in eight days during a roadway
rebuilding project. Each boring location was covered by up to 2 feet of asphalt; many locations also contained two layers
of cobblestone from earlier roadways.
Falmouth, MA: tremie grouted and abandoned over 2,200' of monitoring wells for a government client. Work was
completed in two days.
Allston, MA: installed 56 temporary injection points to 5.5' over two days of work in full PPE; injected potassium
permanganate into each point using piston pump.
Fall River, MA: installed soil borings inside a factory. Borings were installed to approximately 6' at a 45 degree angle under
a manufacturing machine. Permanent injection points were also installed, angled under the machine. Several rounds of
peroxide injection were completed. Installed confirmatory borings under machine. All drilling required limited access
techniques.
Nottingham, NH: installed, developed and sampled over 30 monitoring wells in two days at a former manufacturing facility.
Approximately 20 soil vapor points were installed, developed and sampled on a third day. Conditions were so poor that
we suffered five flat tires on the job - in the drill rig, the truck and the trailer.
Wakefield and East Boston, MA: installed soil borings in two difficult sites in one day. The Wakefield site required
perching the drill rig on top of a large bush, on plywood planks, and drilling through the root ball.
Malden, MA: installed 35 soil borings in one day.
Rumford. RI: installed 434 vertical feet of soil borings in four days. All locations were inaccessible to any drill rig, and had
to be completed using limited-access techniques.
Confidential Site, NH: another 120 hour work day. Conducted a five-day pump test solo. Temperatures reached as low as
20 degrees below zero at night, although this number gets lower and lower as the years pass. It was an amazing feat of
endurance, and a triumph of the human spirit.
The Funeral Grand Tour: in just two years, Bronson Drilling conducted the following funeral-related projects: drilling at a
cemetery, a funeral home, a coffin factory, a morgue, and at a church during a funeral (they made us wait until the funeral
was over before we could start).
The Crazy Zoo Job, New Hampshire: We drilled at a bizarre private zoo that was being closed down for health reasons.
There were lions, tigers, and bears. We were supposed to drill inside one of the buildings which housed the hyena, but they
said that it had bitten off someone's hand the week before and to leave it alone. We didn't drill in that building. We found a
huge, burned pile of animal carcasses in a wetland nearby - probably sides of beef to feed the lions. This really happened.
