' , � modified and constituent volatile aromatics, benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene and total xylene [BETX] using USEPA Test Method 8020. 6. Remediation Steps : Mr. Anderson has retained Jim Thorpe Oil, Inc. to undertake the next phase of this cleanup project. After consultation with SJPHS/EHD and Jim Thorpe Oil, Inc. , Mr. Anderson has decided to remove as much of the contamination remaining beneath the tank pit area as possible by over excavation. The proposed excavation will start approximately 10 feet south of the north end of the original excavation and extend northward a distance of approximately 20 feet. The new excavation will extend 10 feet from the center line of the orginal tank location to the east and west. The plan is to excavate to a depth of 20 feet and adjustments made if necessary. The resulting excavation will be approximately 20 feet wide by 20 feet long by 18 to 20 feet deep. No pipeline excavation will necessary as the piping and pump were located directly over the north end of the tank. The total amount of soil excavated will be approximately 300 cubic yards. Every effort will be made to separate contaminated soil from the clean. Clean soil will be stored on the south side of the property and contaminated soil will be stored on the north [see drawing]. Spoil will be placed on plastic sheeting and covered with same. After an actual volume and contamination levels are determined, decisions can be made as to the best method of disposal or treatment. Plans for final disposition of soil will be submitted to SJHS/EHD for approval. 7. Soil Sampling : Soil sampling will be accomplished by retrieving samples from the appropriate areas with the excavator bucket. Samples will be taken from the bucket by GeoAnalytical Laboratories representitive on site. All sampling and analyses will follow LUFT guidelines and be transported by GeoAnalytical representitive directly to their Laboratories, located in Modesto, CA under chain of custody. Samples will be tested for TPH-D and BTE & X. We propose to take 4 sidewall and 2 bottom samples from the excavation. Samples will be taken equidistant around the perimeter and along the length of the bottom of the excavation [see attached drawing]. Locations of the samples may change at the direction of SJHS/EHD representitive on site. We propose 6 samples ( 12 discrete to form the 6 composits) from the spoil pile at the direction of the SJPHS/EHD representitive. The total number of samples may be altered if conditions or volumes warrant a change. 8. Temporary Fence : A temporary fence will be placed around the excavation until backfilled.
