19 March 2004 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 02-0886 <br /> Page 2 of 8 <br /> The Modesto, Riverbank and Turlock Lake Formations and overlying recent alluvium are the <br /> principal sources of domestic ground water in the 13,500-square mile San Joaquin Valley Ground <br /> Water Basin (Basin 5-22). This basin is drained primarily by the San Joaquin River. The closest <br /> surface water feature to the site is the Mormon Slough and Stockton Diverting Channel, located <br /> approximately 1,500 feet south and 2,000 feet east ofthe site,respectively.Water from Canals drains <br /> into the San Joaquin River Deep Water Channel and is primarily used for commercial and <br /> recreational boating. <br /> Based upon ground water monitoring well information obtained from Main Street and Oro Avenue <br /> (50 feet north of the site),ground water flow direction is southeast to easternly and currently occurs <br /> at a depth of approximately 55 feet bsg within ground water wells.The sedimentary units are thought <br /> to be relatively horizontal and continuous over the area. <br /> 2.3. UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK REMOVAL <br /> On 06 March 2002,three USTs,two dispenser islands and associated piping were removed from the <br /> site under AGE supervision. Six samples were collected beneath the USTs and three laboratory- <br /> composited/discrete soil samples were collected from the excavated soil. <br /> Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline(TPH-g)were detected at concentrations up to <br /> 86 milligram per kilograp (mg/kg). Toluene, ethyl benzene and xylenes (TEX) were detected at <br /> concentrations of up to 13 ANg(xylene);benzene was not detected in the excavation soil samples. <br /> The highest concentrations of contaminants were present in the southern samples from tanks#2 and <br /> #3; this location was the fill area to both USTs. <br /> Approximately 200 tons of soil were excavated during removal of the USTs. Two laboratory- <br /> composite and one-discrete samples were collected from the stockpiled soil prior to placement back <br /> into the excavation after completion of UST removal; the soil was placed back into the excavation <br /> because of the proximity to a major road way(adjacent).Subsequent analytical results of the discrete <br /> soil sample from one stockpile of approximately 25 yards of soil detected TPH-g at 13 mg/kg and <br /> benzene at 0.023 mg/kg.—atso 0.033m11K9 e+kyl bercz arz� d. i►1X91k� �n�-aI XJ1-1►es. <br /> �4 G� <br /> Fuel additives were not detected in the samples.

PREVIOUS SITE ASSESSMENT <br /> In April 2003,three soil borings(B 1,B2 and B3)were advanced and sampled at the site(Figure 2). <br /> Each boring was advanced to a depth of approximately 65 feet below surface grade(bsg).
