<br />			Smith Canal is located approximately 1,300 feet south of the site, and the Calaveras
<br />			River is located approximately 3,500 feet north of the site   Both of these surface water
<br />			bodies are channeled, flow generally to the southwest, and dram into the Stockton Deep
<br />       		Water  Channel  (GRI,  Groundwater Monitoring  Well,  CPT,  and  Ozone  Microsparge

<br />			MONITORING AND SAMPLING — SECOND QUARTER 2005
<br />       		The current monitoring well network consists of 12 wells (MW-1 and MW-3 through MW-
<br />			13) that are sampled quarterly   Groundwater samples were collected by TRC from each  			W
<br />       		well on May 27, 2005, and were submitted to Severn Trent Laboratories, Incorporated
<br />       		(STL) for analysis of gasoline range organics (GRO), BTEX, fuel oxygenates (MtBE,
<br />       		TBA, tertiary amyl methyl ether ]TAME], DIPE, ethyl tertiary butyl ether [EtBE], ethanol),
<br />			1,2-DCA, and ethylene dibromide (EDB) by EPA Method 82608   Groundwater samples
<br />       		from wells MW-3 and MW-7 were additionally analyzed for acetone by EPA Method
<br />       		82606   Results are discussed below and are summarized in TRC's Quarterly Monitoring
<br />       		Report, April Through June 2005 dated June 28, 2005 (Attachment 1)
<br />       		Groundwater monitoring and sampling activities at the site are typically performed in
<br />       		conjunction  with  those  performed  concurrently  at the  nearby  Shell  Service  Station,
<br />       		located at 1267 Country Club Boulevard,  however,  during the second quarter 2005,
<br />       		Blaine Tech  Services (BTS) performed groundwater monitoring  and sampling  at the
<br />       		Shell Service Station one week prior to the TRC sampling event on May 20, 2005
<br />       		Groundwater samples are collected by BTS from Shell wells S-1 through S-4 quarterly,
<br />       		and from  Shell  wells S-5 and  S-6 annually  during  the first quarter      Groundwater
<br />       		samples were submitted  by BTS for analysis of GRO,  BTEX,  and  1,2-DCA by EPA
<br />       		Method  8260B,  and  TPHd  by EPA Method  8015M    Upon authorization granted by
<br />       		representatives  of  the  Shell  Service  Station,  TRC  requested  that  STL  report  the
<br />       		analytical results for wells S-1  through S-4 for fuel oxygenates g					(MtBE, TAME,  DIPS,
<br />       		EtBE, TBA, and ethanol), 1,2-DCA, and EDB by EPA Method 8260B   These results are
<br />       		included in Attachment 1    The EDB results for wells S-2 and S-4, however, were not 			r„
<br />       		reported, as the equipment was not calibrated to run EDB on the day that the samples
<br />       		were analyzed    																3
<br />       		DISCUSSION
<br />																						r
<br />																						h-+d
<br />       		During the second quarter 2005, depth to groundwater ranged between 12 01 and 16 73
<br />       		feet bgs, which was in range of historical levels   Historical groundwater depths have 			3
<br />       		been reported between 11 40 feet and 32 14 feet bgs   The direction of groundwater flow
<br />       		was toward the northeast at a hydraulic gradient of 0 002 feet per toot (ft/ft), which Is
<br />       		also consistent with the groundwater flow direction  reported  over previous  quarters
<br />       		(north and northeast)

<br />       		The highest concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons have historically been detected in			E
<br />       		on-site wells MW-3 and MW-7 within concentrations of GRO and benzene peaking In  			,
<br />       		2001  at site maximum concentrations of 180,000 pg/L (MW-7) and 472 pg/L (MW-3),
<br />       		respectively,  concentrations within these wells and other on-site wells MW-1,  MW-3,
<br />       		MW4,   and   MW-6   have   since   declined   over   time       Petroleum   hydrocarbon
