VV <br /> Mr. Ron Rowe <br /> March 6, 2000 <br /> Page Four <br /> SOIL ASSESSMENT <br /> Four soil borings will be placed at the site utilizing a direct push drill rig. Prior to drilling, <br /> Underground Service Alert will be notified. One boring will be placed adjacent to the former tank <br /> excavation. The remaining borings will be; placed within fifteen feet of the former UST <br /> excavation. Two borings will be placed downgradient to the former tank excavation and one <br /> boring will be placed upgradient, based on surface topography. The location of the borings is <br /> illustrated in Figure 2. The soil borings will be advanced until the vertical extent' of soil <br /> contamination is determined or five feet beyond the first encounter of saturated soils. Soil samples <br /> will be collected continuously throughout thei boring. Soil samples will be obtained from the <br /> boring using either a 1.5 inch inside diameter(I;D), 45 inch long, nickel plated core barrel sampler <br /> or a 1.25 inch ID, 24 inch long sampler attached to the end of the boring rods. Soil samples will <br /> be collected by pushing the barrel sampler through the desired sampling depth with the direct push <br /> drill rig. The sampler will be recovered with a section of undisturbed soil collected within the <br /> acetate liner inside the core barrel. Soil lithol'ogy will be recorded in the field and each sample <br /> will be inspected for evidence of staining, odors and other signs of contamination. Soil samples <br /> will be collected in duplicate. One sample duplicate will be subjected to head space analysis in <br /> the field utilizing an organic vapor monitor (OVM) and the remaining duplicate will be placed in <br /> laboratory supplied containers and on ice pending possible laboratory analysis. Up'to two soil <br /> samples per boring will be submitted for chemical analysis. In borings with no measurable OVM <br /> readings or other indication of contamination; one soil sample will be collected just above the <br /> water table or the termination depth of the boring. In borings with measurable OVM readings or <br /> other indication of contamination, one soil sample will be collected from the interval°having the <br /> highest OVM and one soil sample will be collected just above the water table or the termination <br /> depth of the boring. <br /> Soil samples will be sent via over-night courier to a certified laboratory for chemical analyses. <br /> Soil samples will be subjected to analysis of total petroleum hydrocarbons -gasoline range (TPH- <br /> G 801518020); total petroleum hydrocarbons -diesel range (TPH-D 8015); and benzene, toluene, <br /> ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX 801518020)'. <br /> SENSITIVE RECEPTOR SURVEY <br /> Kleenco will initiate a search of available public records to determine the location of potable water <br /> wells located within 2000 feet of the subject site. Additionally, Kleenco will review the applicable <br /> U.S.G.S. topographic quadrangle, city plat maps, and conduct a visual survey to determine the <br /> location of potential sensitive receptors. <br /> REPORTING <br /> Upon completion of the field work and chemical analyses, a report will be prepared for submittal <br /> to the San Joaquin County Environmental Health. The report will document methods used in the <br /> field, the results of the field work, groundwater elevations and direction of flow, and a discussion <br /> of the findings. The report will also include supporting documentation including site maps, <br /> geologist logs, and analytical laboratory reports. <br /> 00268114.919 <br />
