plan; site safety procedures for specific site operations, (e.g., drilling, sampling, etc.); a decontamination plan; and an emergency response/contingency plan. The HASP specified levels of protection for site personnel on a task-specific basis. As with any project of this magnitude, there are inevitable encounters with a variety of physical hazards ranging from simple housekeeping to temperature extremes. IES will provide continual evaluation of all potentially hazardous conditions and prescribed additional safety protocols to protect site personnel as needed. Permitting IES will secure encroachment permits from the City of Stockton for the thirteen (13) groundwater wells located in the City Right of Way (ROW) (MW-4, MW-6, MW-7, MW-8, MW-12, MW-13A, MW-14B, MW-1513, MW-16C, MW-17B, MW-18C, MW-19B and MW-20C). After securing the encroachment permit, IES will complete the well drilling permit application to destroy twenty-one (21) groundwater monitoring wells (MW-1 through MW-9,MW-10A, MW-11B, MW-12B, MW-13A, MW-14B,MW-15B, MW-16C, MW-17B, MW-18C, MW-19B, MW-20C and EX-1) and submit the application to DEH for approval prior to initiation of field work. Locations are shown on Figure 1. Utility Clearance Prior to well destruction activities IES will mark-out the drilling locations with white paint, white stakes and/or white flags and contact USA to identify utilities in the vicinity of each drilling location as required by law. Well Destructions IES will contract with Baja Exploration Inc., a C-57 licensed driller(License#804318)to conduct the well destructions. Preceding backfilling and over-drilling activities, well casing and borehole measurements from each location will be confirmed. Well casings will be extracted prior to over-drilling each well to approximately 1-foot below the total measured depth. Over-drilling beyond the total explored borehole depth will remove the remaining well construction materials, including the sand filter packs and annular seals. The destroyed well boreholes will be backfilled with a Portland cement and bentonite grout mixture with 5% (or less) bentonite content by volume via tremie pipe from the bottom up. Following grouting, well vaults will be destroyed to remove all well construction materials from the upper 3 feet of the borehole, including the concrete perimeter seal. The borehole will then be capped with approximately 3- feet of 3,000 psi traffic-rated concrete. Each destroyed well will be finished at the surface to match existing grade. Waste Management All investigation derived waste(IDW)will be managed in accordance with all state and local regulations. Well materials from the upper five feet of each well(excluding concrete and PVC), and any decontamination rinseate,will be placed in 55-gallon,California Department of Transportation rated drums which will be labelled with non-hazardous waste labels and temporarily stored on-Site pending waste characterization and eventual transport under manifest to an appropriate receiving facility for disposal. Concrete,PVC and other construction materials will be transported to an appropriate landfill for disposal.Any recyclable metals will be transported to a facility for recycling. Following completion of the activities proposed above, IES will submit a Well Destruction Report to the CVRWQCB and DEH detailing the activities associated with well destruction activities.
