Soil Conductivity Logging and
MIP:
Soil electrical conductivity logs are used to
define zones of lower conductivity, equivalent to coarser grained,
more permeable sediments, which will allow the movement of
contaminants (hydrocarbons, chlorinated VOCs, or metals) in the
subsurface. The lithologic information gathered with the Conductivity
System with a Membrane Interface Probe (MIP) can be used to aid the investigator in understanding the
movement and location of contaminants in the subsurface. This
information will also assist in the proper placement of monitoring or
extraction wells.
