Box 2009 <br /> Stockton, California 95201 <br /> Dear Dan: <br /> This letter is an explanation of what EA Engineering, Science, <br /> and Technology, Inc. ( EA) proposes to do at: E1 Dorado Street <br /> and E. Harding Road, Stockton, California. <br /> EA has conducted several hundred soil vapor contamination <br /> assessments ( SVCA) nationwide with many in California and the <br /> Central Valley in particular, a general approach to the Stockton <br /> site would be as follows : <br /> - Collect shallow ( 3 to 5 feet ) soil vapor samples, from <br /> the area which surrounds the storage tanks, also develop <br /> one, or more if necessary, vertical profiles( s ) near the <br /> tank field (to 10± or ground water level ) . <br /> - Collect at least one vertical profile vapor sample from <br /> the waste oil tank area. <br /> - Collect 3 to 5 shallow soil vapor samples from points <br /> along product lines especially in areas near joints in <br /> lines. <br /> - Collect any additional samples as may be appropriate,_ <br /> such as locations along property boundary where the site <br /> adjoins another property with fuel storage. <br /> - If and when contamination is found, the extent of that <br /> contamination would be evaluated by extending the SVCA <br /> survey with additional points in locations stepped out <br /> from any contaminated points. This allows for more <br /> efficient placement of borings and monitoring wells when <br /> required. <br /> The SVCA methodology uses 5/8-inch steel rods with slotted tips <br /> that are hand driven utilizing an 8 pound hammer to the desired <br /> depth. Once at depth a vacuum pump is used to purge soil vapor <br /> from the probe and to ensure that a sample is representative. <br /> The vacuum pressure reading from the purging apparatus is then <br /> BALTIMORE ❑ CHICAGO 0 CINCINNATI 0 LINCOLN 7 NEW YORK ❑ SAN FRANCISCO <br />
