Work For Additional Assessment and Feasir>�y Study <br /> ` Quik Stop Market No. 132 <br /> 3555 West Hammer Lane <br /> Stockton, California <br /> On April 29, 1992, RESNA Industries Inc. (RESNA) completed a Shallow Soil Gas and <br /> Groundwater Survey around the Taco Bell property adjacent to the site. Tracer Research <br /> Corporation of Tucson, Arizona was subcontracted to perform the survey. A % inch diameter <br /> probe was advanced to depths as deep as 20 feet bgs at ten locations along the south and east <br /> sides of the Taco Bell property. A total of seven soil gas and six groundwater samples were <br /> collected from the holes. Very low concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in <br /> three soil gas samples and two groundwater samples. Based on resistance during advancement, it <br /> was concluded that at depths of 8 to 14 feet bgs, a dense less porous soil is present. <br /> On December 9, 1992, RESNA completed an additional site assessment consisting of the <br /> installation of two additional off-site groundwater monitoring wells (MW-6 and MW-7). The soil <br /> and groundwater samples (from new and existing groundwater monitoring wells) were analyzed <br /> for TPHg and.BTEX in accordance with EPA test methods 8015 and 8020, respectively. TPHg <br /> and BTEX were not present in any of the soil borings. , TPHg was present in a groundwater <br /> sample obtained from MW-5 (350 µg /L). BTEX (at least one constituent) was present in <br /> groundwater samples obtained from MW-2 and MW-5. The maximum benzene concentration <br /> was 0.66 gg/L in the groundwater sample obtained from groundwater monitoring well MW-2. <br /> The locations of groundwater monitoring wells are shown on Figure 2. <br /> In March 1996, groundwater samples obtained from groundwater monitoring wells MW-1R, <br /> MW-2, MW-5, MW-6 and MW-7 were first analyzed for methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in <br /> accordance with EPA test method 8020. MTBE was present in groundwater samples obtained <br /> from MW-1R, MW-2 and MW-S. The maximum MTBE concentration was present in a <br /> groundwater sample obtained from MW-5 (1,100 pg/L). MTBE concentrations in MW-5 <br /> subsequently decreased steadily for five quarters until September 1997, when the MTBE <br /> concentrations rose back to 1,100 gg/L. <br /> In a letter to Quik Stop Markets Inc., dated April 1, 1997, the San Joaquin County Public Health <br /> Services Environmental Health Division (SJCPHS-EHD) stated that "the only remaining issue at <br /> the site is the MTBE currently being detected in Monitoring Well MW-5", The SJCPHS-EHD <br /> recommended the sampling of only Monitoring Well MW-5 for future quarterly monitoring <br /> events, therefore, no other groundwater monitoring wells at the site were sampled during the first <br /> quarter 1998 sampling event. However, in a letter to Quik Stop Markets Inc. dated April 27, <br /> 1998, the SJCPHS-EHD requested that "each quarter sample and analyze water from all of the <br /> MWs until further direction from the San Joaquin County Public Health Services Environmental <br /> Health Division". <br /> A Workplan for additional groundwater investigation dated October 19, 1998 was prepared by <br /> ATC at the request of the SJCPHS-EH. The Workplan included a well survey and an operating <br /> history of the site USTs. The well survey was conducted to locate any domestic, municipal, and <br /> agricultural wells within 2,000 feet of Quik Stop No. 132. No drinking water wells were <br /> identified within the search radius. Two irrigation wells were identified within 2,000 feet of Quik <br /> Stop 132. The operating history of the site USTs includes installation of new double-walled <br /> USTs and product lines, dispensers, and canopies in March 1991 (ATC, October 1998). <br />
