MW2 is screened from approximately 45 to 65 feet bgs. Data associated with the <br /> Lem SVE effort indicates the majority of petroleum hydrocarbon vapors have been removed from within the <br /> horizontal vacuum ROI of approximately 30 feet associated with MW2. Subsurface vapor samples with <br /> ` respect to potential vapor intrusion have never been collected from the site. Shallow subsurface vapor <br /> L samples are typically collected to evaluate the potential for soil vapor intrusion scenarios and to evaluate <br /> if the analytes of interest detected pose a risk to human health. Since shallow subsurface vapors have <br /> never been collected from the site, no evaluation was be made with respect to subsurface vapor intrusion. <br /> However, active remediation of vadose zone soil would be expected to reduce the risk of soil vapor <br /> intrusion. <br /> 4.6 Stability of Chemicals of Concern <br /> rv. A statistical evaluation of groundwater trends associated with the ten most recent groundwater sampling <br /> events were conducted for monitoring wells MW I and MW2 using the Mann-Kendall statistical model. <br /> The non-parametric Mann-Kendall test was used to evaluate time related trends in TPHg, TPHd, BTEX, <br /> and MTBE data. The Mann-Kendall test is considered well suited to the dataset because it can be used <br /> for data that are non-parametric (does not have a specific distribution, such as normal or log normal) and <br /> the dataset can contain data at irregularly spaced intervals. In addition, the dataset can contain elevated <br /> values compared to the average(outliers)or data reported as below the practical quantitative limit. <br /> Based on the Mann-Kendall test results included in Appendix C, TPHg, benzene, toluene, and ethyl <br /> benzene concentrations detected in samples collected from M W 1 during the last ten sampling events were <br /> determined to be stable. Xylenes concentrations were determined to be non-stable and TPHd and MTBE <br /> concentrations were determined to be decreasing and increasing, respectively. A decreasing trend in <br /> concentrations of TPHg, TPHd, and BTEX were noted in groundwater samples collected from MW2. An <br /> increasing trend with respect to MTBE was noted in groundwater samples collected from MW2. It is <br /> important to note that the MTBE concentrations have been reported at concentrations below the MCL <br /> since 2005. The results of constituent trend analyses associated with groundwater samples collected from <br /> ' MW I and MW2 during the last ten sampling events are summarized below. <br /> LW <br /> Mann-Kendall Statistical Test Summary <br /> 80%Confidence level <br /> Well TPHg TPHd Benzene Toluene Ethylbenzene Xylenes MTBE <br /> 1D <br /> MWI Stable Decreasing Stable Stable Stable Non-Stable Increasing <br /> MW2 Decreasing Decreasing Decreasing Decreasing Decreasing Decreasing Increasing <br /> * If no trend exists at the 80%confidence level,then the stability was test run. <br /> * 5.0 EFFECTIVENESS OF REMEDIAL ACTIONS <br /> As previously indicated in Sections 1.2 and 4.2,an SVE system was operated at the site for approximately <br /> 16,500 hours from January 17, 2007 to February 13, 2009.
