Hydrogeologic Report.pdf

A hydrogeologic assessment report was prepared for the proposed Bioenergy Development Group, LLC digester in Seaford, Delaware, to characterize subsurface conditions prior to development. The report includes a site description, topography, geology, groundwater characteristics, environmental issues, soil borings, monitoring wells, and groundwater quality monitoring. The site is located on two tax parcels, 132-11.00-41.00 and 41.02, in Sussex County, Delaware, and is currently owned by BDG DE, LLC. The property is bordered by single-family homes, poultry farms, and undeveloped agricultural fields, and is gently sloping with a tax ditch and stormwater handling facilities. The geology of the area is characterized by sedimentary deposits, with the Beaverdam and Cat Hill Formations underlying the property. The report also includes an evaluation of soil borings and monitor well data, groundwater quality sampling, and an assessment of planned groundwater use and wastewater facilities.
