Description	Hnevice site is contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons. Several redox zones developed and zone previously contaminated is without contamination now. Re-oxidation of reduced iron minerals playes an important role in electron balance. Reactive transport modeling was used for quantification of natural attenuation processes.
