Fourth Quarter 1998 Monitoring and Sampling Report and Work Plan for Additional Subsurface Investigation 2 <br /> The Southland Corporation,Store#19976, 1399 North Main Street Manteca CA January 29 1999 <br /> have been corrected (Table 1) With last quarter's data corrected the WTE, groundwater flow direction and <br />' analytical results conform more logically with fourth quarter monitoring and sampling data Groundwater <br /> monitoring results from September 16 and December 30, 1998 monitoring and sampling events are <br /> presented In Table 1 Field data sheets are included in Attachment 3 <br /> MONITORING WELL SAMPLING AND ANALYTICAL RESULTS <br />' On December 30, 1998, groundwater samples were collected from four wells Before sampling, at least <br /> four well-casing volumes of groundwater were removed from each monitoring well unless the well was <br /> purged dry The groundwater samples were collected using disposable bailers Groundwater samples <br /> were placed in analysis-specific containers with analysis-specific preservative The samples were then <br /> sealed using Teflon septum caps, labeled with the job Identification number, the sample number, date, <br /> time, and type of laboratory analysis required The samples were stored on Ice and transported with a <br /> chain-of-custody record to Core Laboratories, Inc , in Anaheim, California Groundwater samples were <br />' analyzed for BTEX and TPH-G using Environmental Protection Agency(EPA) method 8020/modified 8015 <br /> and for the oxygenates TBA, MTBE, DIPE, ETBE and TAME using EPA method 8260 <br /> Laboratory analytical results and historical reports for groundwater samples collected on December 30, <br />' 1998 are summarized in Table 1 The highest concentrations of benzene and TPH-G were reported in <br /> groundwater sampled from MW-2 at 3,150 micrograms per liter(pg/L) and 38,400 Vg/L, respectively The <br /> highest concentration of MTBE was found in well MWA at 383 pg/L Benzene and TPH-G concentrations <br /> Increased In wells MWA(crossgradient) and MW-2 (downgradlent),while MTBE Increased In MW-1 and <br /> decreased in MW-2 between the third and fourth quarters Dissolved hydrocarbon concentrations <br /> decreased in MWAA(the deep monitoring well)to below detection limits Dissolved hydrocarbon <br /> concentrations have remained low to non-detectable in well MW-3 (upgradlent) over the two quarters <br /> sampled The laboratory analytical reports for the groundwater samples are Included In Attachment 4 <br /> Dissolved oxygen data taken from the four monitoring wells on December 30, 1998, indicate depletion of <br /> dissolved oxygen through ongoing Intrinsic biodegradation Dissolved oxygen levels decreased in all <br />' wells between the third and fourth quarters Dissolved oxygen levels ranged from 0 4 milligrams per liter <br /> (mg/L)to 1 2 mg/L(Table 1) <br /> PURGE WATER TRANSPORTATION AND DISPOSAL <br /> All purge water generated during this quarterly monitoring and sampling event was stored in 55-gallon <br />' Department of Transportation (DOT)-approved drums pending characterization and proper disposal <br /> Approximately 48 gallons of purged water generated during this sampling event will be removed from the <br /> site during the next quarter by Belshlre Environmental Services, Inc and transported to a licensed treatment <br />' and disposal facility Waste disposal documentation will be forwarded once received <br /> BACKGROUND <br />' Underground storage tank replacement and associated soil sampling activities were conducted in 1996 On <br /> September 19, 1996, a total of five soil samples were collected from the tank pit area (Figure 2) Table 1 <br /> IT CORPORA710N <br />
