Bacteria that can clean up all sorts of nasty stuff is
old news.  A guy I used to carpool with went to work
for a company called Ecova 18 years ago to become a
"bug trainer".  Basically, they go to the site of any
environmental mess, and they would dig up soil from
the area.  In all likelyhood, there would be a
bacteria eating the nasty stuff, and they would take
the sample back to the lab, isolate the desired
bacteria, multiply it, and release it back at the site
of the mess.

The key is to stop the infiltration of the
contaminant, and prevent what is there from entering
groundwater.  Sometimes the soil has to be piled up on
an impervious surface (pavement or a plastic barrier)
before it can be treated.
