M Station, Inc. Product line(s) were also removed during excavation of the UST. The approximate location of the former UST is shown on Figure 2. During the UST removal,two soil samples were collected from the floor of the UST excavation,four soil samples from the stockpiled soil, and one grab ground water sample. Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as diesel (TPH-d) was reported in each of the soil samples.analyzed at concentrations as high as 6,200 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). BTEX compounds were not detected in the soil samples analyzed. TPH-d and BTEX compounds were detected in the grab ground water sample at concentrations of 31,000 micrograms per liter (µg/1) TPH-d, 38 µg11 ,.1 benzene, 12 gg/l.toluene, 53 µg/1 ethylbenzene, and 68 gg/1 xylenes. Analytical results of soil and ground water samples are summarized in Table 1. PREVIOUS SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION On 25 October and 24 November 1999, Lush Geosciences,Inc. excavated trenches TR-1 through TR-9 to maximum depths of approximately 10 to 12 feet below surface grade(bsg)to assess the soil and ground water conditions at the site adjacent to J.B.Murphy Trucking.The trenches were located in close proximity to the former UST location on the property of J.B. Murphy Trucking. Soil i samples were collected from depths of 8 feet and 10 feet bsg,and ground water was collected from + depths of 9 and 10 feet bsg. TPH-d was detected in soil samples collected from trenches TR-1 through TR-4 at concentrations as high as 2,140 mg/kg. TPH-d was also reprted in the grab ground water sample collected at a concentration of 508 mg/l. Only low to non-detectable concentrations of BTEX compounds were detected. On 13 July 2000, eight soil probe borings (PI through P8) were advanced at the site as part of assessment activities related to the four former USTs.TPH-g was detected in the 10-foot soil sample collected from P4 at a concentration of 46 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). The only BTEX compound detected in soil was ethylbenzene, which was detected in the 10-foot soil sample _;, collected from boring P4 at a concentration of 0.009 mg/kg. TPH-d was detected in soil samples collected from probe borings P1,P4 and P5 at concentrations as high as 3,400 mg/kg(P4-10).Fuel oxygenated compounds were not detected at or above laboratory reporting limits. Grab ground water samples were collected from boring P1 through P8, and were submitted to a DHS-certified laboratory for analysis as noted above. TPH-g was detected in the ground water I samples collected from P 1,P2,and P4 at concentrations of 3,100 micrograms per liter(gg/1), 1,300 gg/l,and 2,100 gg/l,respectively. TPH-d was detected in the ground water samples collected from .� P1 through P8 at concentrations as high as 2,900,000 gg/1 (P4). BTEX compounds were detected in the ground water samples collected from P 1 and P4 at concentrations ranging as high as 5.5 µg11; dissolved benzene was detected at concentrations as high as 3.7 gg/l (P1). Dissolved MTBE was detected in the ground water sample from P4 at a concentration of 8.2 gg/1 utilizing EPA Method -' 8020 and confirmed at a concentration of 7.6 gg/l utilizing EPA Method 8260. No other fuel oxygenated compounds were detected at or above laboratory reporting limits during the laboratory analysis of the ground water sample. ' Advanced GeoEnvironmentni,Inc.
