This memo is to provide backup for our use of Bioxide for the control of hydrogen
sulfide odors in the Wimbleton Neighborhood A year long study was conducted to
determine what product would reduce the levels of hydrogen sulfide in the Hickory
Creek line The use of Bioxide was selected after a trial during March of this year
The product proved to be extremely effective in the elimination of hydrogen sulfide
gas The use of Bioxide was selected for its effectiveness and it is a nonhazardous
chemical
It takes approximately 57 gallons of Bioxide a day to treat the hydrogen sulfide odors
