Harding Lawson Associates <br /> September 26, 1988 <br /> 17060, 008 . 03 <br /> The Southland Corporation <br /> 5820 Stoneridge Mall Road <br /> Pleasanton, California 94556 RF C <br /> Attention: Mr. Hal Miller F/ <br /> Gentlemen: <br /> Results of Vapor Survey and <br /> Additional Ground-Water Monitoring <br /> 455 West Grantline Road <br /> Tracy, California <br /> This letter presents the response of Harding Lawson Associ- <br /> ates (HLA) to the draft communication of Mr. Gordon Boggs of <br /> the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board <br /> (CVRWQCB) dated August 29 , 1988 , and addressed to Ms. Laurie <br /> Cotulla of the San Joaquin Local Health District. Mr. <br /> Boggs' communication was in response to HLA's Interim <br /> Report, Phase IV Investigation, Tasks 3 and 4 , dated August <br /> 25, 1988 . That document contained a proposal to install a <br /> deep well , along with a description of the installation of <br /> shallow borings and monitoring wells, and the results of <br /> chemical tests on soil and ground-water samples. <br /> In his letter, Mr. Boggs indicated that the proposed 60- <br /> foot-depth of the deep well was excessive. He indicated <br /> that the well should extend into, but not through, the con- <br /> fining layer that separates the first and second aquifers. <br /> We agree that a shallower well is more desirable; we there- <br /> fore wish to revise the projected total depth of the well to <br /> between 30 and 40 feet. We believe that on-site conditions <br /> may dictate the need to go beyond 40 feet and that the ulti- <br /> mate well depth is best determined in the field by our geol- <br /> ogist. Recommended procedures for installing, developing, <br /> and sampling this well are the same as those presented in <br /> our Interim Report of August 25, 1988. The location of the <br /> deep well is shown on the attached Plate 1. <br /> Mr Boggs' letter also requested a vapor study inside the <br /> convenience building, reasoning that the subsurface fill <br /> Engineers 1355 Willow Way Teleonone Arizona Colorado Texas <br /> and Suite 109 415/687-9660 Alaska Hawaii Telecody <br /> Geoscienusts Concord.CA 94520 California Nevada 415/687-9673. <br />
