Page 3 <br />Ms. Vicki McCartney, RUTS <br />February 20, 2004 <br />j <br />samples were collected for analysis. This CPT. investigation indicated that the lateral extent of <br />impacted groundwater is largely contained within the Earthgiain's property boundaries. Results <br />from this investigation were reported in PSC's May 1999 Subsurface Investigation and <br />Groundwater Monitoring Report. <br />An additional air sparging and soil venting pilot test was performed in June 2000 using VW- I as <br />` the vent well. This test was conducted in general accordance with procedures described in PSC's <br />May 15, 2000 Pilot Testing Work Plan. Once again, pilot test results indicated that this <br />technology would be an effective method of treating :petroleum hydrocarbon impact at the site. <br />b� Test results and designs for an air sparging and soil venting remediation system are contained in <br />L PSC's August 31, 2000 Remedial Action Work Plan. <br />Operation of a full scale air sparging and soil venting remediation system was initiated on April <br />25, 2001.. Installation of a new air sparging well (SP -A) was performed on March 14, 2002. The <br />remediation system was disengaged in December 2002 to evaluate whether petroleum <br />concentrations in groundwater samples would remain stable. Prior to disengagement, PSC had <br />noted significant decreases in petroleum concentrations in groundwater samples (Table 2) <br />PSC submitted the April 14, 2003 Remedial Action Completion Report that presented an SCM <br />and requested that EHD review site conditions and consider granting case closure for this UST <br />site. EHD responded in their January 9, 2004 letter, which directed additional work to be <br />performed including: <br />1. Estimating the contaminant mass in the vadose zone; <br />2. Assessing the vertical extent of impacted groundwater; <br />3. Collecting a groundwater sample from.a nearby irrigation well; <br />4. Testing for 1,2 -DCA and EDB; and, <br />5. Reinitiating quarterly groundwater monitoring. <br />PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK <br />Procedures to implement EHD directed work are proposed in the following sections. <br />Vadose Zone Assessment <br />EHD expressed concern that there is a lack of data characterizing the magnitude of impact within <br />the vadose zone around the source of the release. There is some soil data available that provides <br />an indication of the extent of impacted soil in the vadose zone. Table 1 includes analytical results <br />of soil samples collected from borings 90-1, 90-2, MW -1, MW -2, MW -5 and MW -7, located <br />around the perimeter of the release, that typically contain non-detectable or relatively low <br />KLEINFELDER 3077 Fite Circle, Sacramento, CA 95827-1815 (916) 366,-1701.
