Soil results from 1998 at MW-2 indicated the presence of 14,000 mg/kg TPH at a depth of 20.5 feet bgs and 1,500 mg/kg TPH at a depth of 30 feet bgs. Appendix A provides cross sections of the areas to be removed, calculations of mass removal, and detailed cost estimates. The concentration of 1,500 mg/kg was the highest recorded concentration at a depth of 28 feet and this location coincided with the tank cavity location. Much of the area would only need excavation to 25 feet to remove the TPH concentrations targeted for this option. Depth to groundwater is approximately 1241.bgs. This excavation alternative would extend approximately 14 feet into the water table, and shoring would be required for the site. Given the proximity of the excavation to utility limes, railroad tracks, and the depth of the excavation, shoring becomes a necessity for this option and is estimated to cost an additional $85,000 to $95,000. An additional impediment to excavation is the 14 R by 20 R concrete pad, estimated to be 6 inches in thickness that is partially over the excavation area. Half of this pad will have to be removed to allow excavation. Costs for removing the concrete pad are estimated to be between $1,000 and $2,000. The power line and power pole that lay adjacent to the excavation area will also need to be removed for safety purposes.'.The cost of removing the power line and power poll is estimated to be between $2,000 and $2,500. The top 10 feet of soil is considered clean fill and would be stockpiled and re-used on site. Thus,of the 1,350 cubic yards removed, approximately,505 cubic yards are re-used and 850 cubic yards would be disposed of at an appropriate landfill facility. Ancillary operations needed to address soils below the water table include dewatering the excavation at a rate of 15 gpm, treating the water, and.discharging to the City of Stockton sewer system. By extending excavation into the water table,.additional costs will be incurred to dewater the site. It is estimated that dewatering will cost betweeti.$21,800 and$37,500. Extracted water will be piped to a treatment system consisting of one 2,000=pourid-carbon rant arranged in series, pumps, sand filter, holding tanks,water level controllers,piping and manifold. The treated water is to be discharged to a City sewer with appropriate permits. The costs for this alternative are estimated between-$254,000 and$299,000. Shoring costs of$85,000 to $90,000 represent almost 30 percent of the,cost of this option. This alternative would result in the removal of approximately 11,500 pounds'"of TPH material from the tank excavation area, which translates to a cost of between$22.44 and$26..23.per pound of TPH removed. 5.2 Alternative A2: Excavation with Limitbd Vertical Extent 5 Feet into the Water Table A second alternative considered removing the'contaminated soils occurring at the top of the water table and extending approximately five feet into the water table. This option extended to a larger area and included excavation from HA-8, HA-9, the utility pole, and then towards MW-3. Appendix B provides cross sections of the area to be removed, calculations of mass removed, and detailed cost estimates.
