Mike Infurna [EH] From: Jim Barton [jbarton@waterboards.ca.gov] Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2011 8:30 AM To: Daniel Villanueva Cc: Robert E.Marty, Tim Cuellar; wlittle@advgeoenv.com; Mike Infurna [EH]; Nuel Henderson [EH] Subject: RE: Boulevard Automotive Service: 2151 Country Club Boulevard, Stockton, CA- ISCO Pilot Study Work Plan Response Hi Daniel. My main safety concern was with the mixing of HCI and an oxidizer (H2O2) which could release chlorine gas if present in a higher concentration than proposed, not the chlorine in the tap water. Additional water testing for chlorine is not necessary. Please submit the Notice of Intent (NOI, or injection permit application) as a signed document and a draft Monitoring and Reporting Program (MRP) as an MS Word document for my review and editing. AGE has several approved NOls and MRPs to use as templates. Thanks. Jim Barton James L.L. Barton, P.G. Engineering Geologist California Regional Water Quality Control Board Central Valley Region, 11020 Sun Center Drive, Suite 200, Rancho Cordova, CA 95670 office (916) 464-4615 fax (916) 464-4704 >>> Daniel Villanueva <dvillanueva@advgeoenv.com> 11/14/2011 12:13 PM Mr. Barton, AGE provides the following response to your comments below: 1) AGE will be taking protective health measures by initially diluting the oxidizer with water, than diluting the acid-oxidizer solution down to a 5% solution. All mixing will be done outdoors, diluting any potential adverse reaction, which may occur during preparation. The final above ground solution will be in such a form that it is very unlikely that chlorine gas will be produced due to the diluted nature of the prepared media; further, chlorine in the public water supply should be absent or at a minimum, thus reducing the potential for chlorine gas production.
