Abdelwahed :Facility, Ultramar Site No. 13792 May 9, 2013 <br />Stockton, California _ NFAR Request and Well Destruction Work Plan <br />• soil gas sample SG -3 contained 18% oxygen and 1.7% carbon dioxide; no <br />concentrations of TPHd, TPHg, BTEX, MTBE, DCA or EDB were detected in sample <br />SG -3; <br />• soil gas sample SG -3 DUP collected in the Summa canister and analyzed by ATL <br />contained ._a concentration of 980 µg/m3 TPHg; 34 Pg/m3 toluene; 9.2 pg/m3 <br />ethylbenzene; and 59 µg/m3 xylenes; no concentrations of benzene, MTBE, DCA or <br />EDB were .detected in sample SG -3 (DUP); analytical results of the SG -3 DUP sample <br />confirm the analytical results of sample SG -3 <br />• soil gas sample SG -4 contained 250 gg/m3 toluene, 190 pg/m3 ethylbenzene, 1190 <br />pg/m3 xylenes, 17% oxygen and 1.3% carbon dioxide; no concentrations of TPHd, <br />TPHg, benzene, MTBE, DCA or EDB were detected. in sample SG -4; <br />• no observable loss of vacuum was detected during the 2 -minute shut-in test performed <br />on SG -3 setup; <br />• no leak detection compound concentrations were detected in TEG or ATL soil gas <br />samples; and <br />• quality assurance/quality control data indicate no sampling method or analytical <br />problems. <br />Soil Gas Investigation Conclusions <br />Analytical results of soil gas samples were compared to the shallow soil gas screening levels <br />presented in Table E-2, Shallow Soil Gas Screening Levels for Evaluation of Potential Vapor <br />Intrusion Concerns in Screening For Environmental Concerns At Sites With Contaminated <br />Soil and Groundwater -Interim Final published by the San Francisco Bay RWQCB (revised <br />May 2008) and in Table 2 California Human Health Screening Levels (CHHSLs) for Indoor <br />Air and Soil Gas in Use of California Human Health Screening Levels in Evaluation of <br />Contaminated Properties (January 2005). The soil gas screening levels were developed to <br />screen sites for potential human health concerns and represent concentrations that Cal EPA <br />considers to be below thresholds of concern for risks to human health. The specific <br />environmental protection goal addressed by the environmental screening levels (ESLs) is to <br />protect human health against vapor intrusion into buildings resulting from impacted soil or <br />groundwater. The presence of an analyte in soil gas at concentrations below the <br />corresponding ESLs can be assumed to not pose a significant, long-term (chronic) threat to <br />human health and the environment. <br />Both commercial/industrial (commercial) and residential land -use ESLs and CHHSLs for the <br />analytes are given in the Table 3 for comparison to soil gas analytical results. The screening <br />levels for commercial land use are considered appropriate for this site because the site is not <br />immediately adjacent to residential parcels, the highest soil gas analyte concentrations were <br />detected in the eastern portion of the site away from the residential area west of the site <br />lietween which soil gas analytical results indicate no detectable hydrocarbon concentrations, <br />the land is zoned commercial and is used as an automotive repair shop, and the current zoning <br />is not expected to change in the reasonably foreseeable future. <br />No TPHg, BTEX compounds, MTBE, DCA or EDB were detected above the commercial <br />screening levels. The only analyte detected above any residential screening level was TPHg in <br />1792 NFAR rpt.doc <br />Project No. 1792.26 6 HORIZON ENVIRONMENTAL INC. <br />
