Abstract
In May 2015, the Army notified Regulatory Agencies that the amount of water collected by Lys 001 and Lys 002 on the Shell Disposal Trench RCRA-equivalent cover exceeded the compliance standard of 1.3 mm/yr (Navarro report, 17 Sep 2015). The purpose of the project reported here is to Investigate root development as possible contribution to this excessive percolation.
