r-� E^ R r SECOR Fourth Quarter 2003, Quarterly Progress Report January 14, 2004 Page 2 3.0 EVALUATION OF GROUNDWATER EXTRACTION GWET and SVE systems were activated on July 3, 2000. A brief description and performance evaluation of the remedial systems during 4003 are presented below. Certified laboratory analytical reports and chain -of -custody documentation and remedial system operation and maintenance field data sheets are included in Appendices D and E, respectively. On August 20, 2003, SVE was discontinued as approved by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) in their letter dated August 18, 2003. A copy of this letter is included in Appendix F. 3.1 Groundwater Extraction System The GWET system includes groundwater extraction wells EX -1, EX -2 and EX -3 (Figure 5). These wells are equipped with submersible pumps connected through mechanical piping to a series of granular activated carbon (GAC) vessels prior to an industrial sewer discharge point. Chevron discharges treated groundwater at the subject site under City of Lodi (City) wastewater discharge permit #328. To assess effectiveness of the GWET system, process samples were collected monthly during this reporting period. Sample locations include a influent port (INFL) prior to the first GAC vessel, between the first and second GAC vessels (MID -1), between the second and third GAC vessels (MID -2), and before discharge (EFFL) to the industrial sewer. During these sampling events, INFL, MID -1, MID -2 and EFFL samples were analyzed for TPHg, BTEX, MtBE, TBA, DIPS, EtBE, TAME, ethanol, methanol, EDB and 1,2 -DCA. Maximum concentrations of detected constituents are presented below. Current and historical analytical information is presented as Table 3. Zone Maximum Constituent Concentrations (gg/l) MtBE TBA EtBE TAME Ethanol Methanol INFL 9 <10. <2. <2. <100. <400. MID -1 <2. <10. <2. <2. <100. <400. MID -2 <2. <10. <2. <2. <100. <400.

Explanations: < Indicates the constituent was not present at or above the method detection limit shown Between September 17 and December 11, 2003, the GWET system discharged a total of 815,541 gallons of treated groundwater (Table 4). As of December 11, 2003, the GWET system had treated a total of 8,663,405 gallons. Calculated discharge rates during the 4Q03 monitoring period ranged from 5.99 to 6.62 gallons per minute (gpm). During 4003, the system extracted an estimated 0.3 pounds of TPHg and 0.1 pounds of MtBE. To date, the system has extracted approximately 9.4 pounds of TPHg, 0.2 pound of benzene, and 85.0 pounds of MtBE. Plots of GWET system mass removal trends and influent groundwater TPHg, benzene, and MtBE concentrations versus time are shown on Figure 6 and 7, respectively.
