Updated Site Conceptual Model and Second Quarter 2002 Monitoring and Remediation Report Cleanup and Abatement Order No 5-00-707 EAI Protect No 1232 3 0 GROUND WATER MONITORING All ground water monitoring and sampling activities were completed by Gettler-R an Inc between June 9 through 11, 2002 On May 31, 2002, the remediation system was deactivated to allow ground water to stabilize before initiating gauging and sampling activities The system was reactivated on June 14, 2002 after completion of all monitoring and sampling efforts for this reporting period 31 Ground Water Sampling On June 9, 2002, prior to purging or sampling activities, depth measurements to fluid levels were obtained by GRI from all monitoring wells associated with the Wards and Unocal (MW-1 through MW-27) sites Depth measurements were obtained using an interface probe accurate to 0 01 foot No free-product was detected in any of the wells The water level measurement for each well was converted to mean sea level (MSL) datum by subtracting the measured water level for each well from its respective "top of well casing elevation" datum (see Table 3) Between June 9 and 11, 2002, ground water samples were collected from the wells by GRI for analytical testing Standard operating procedures used by GRI for ground water monitoring are ' contained an Appendix A Appendix B contains the GRI ground water monitoring field logs, and Appendix C the chain of custody records 32 Effluent Handling As requested by Unocal, the purge water and decontamination water generated during sampling activities was transported by GRI to Tosco — San Francisco Area Refinery, located in Rodeo, California{see Appendix A) ' 33 Analytical Testing The samples were delivered for analytical testing to Sequoia Analytical in Sari Carlos, California a state certified hazardous waste testing laboratory (Certificate No 2360) Sequoia Analytical is certified for all tests completed as part of this investigation The samples were analyzed for VOCs, including fuel oxygenates, e g , MTBE, TBA, DIPS, ETBE, TAME, and EDB by EPA Method 8260B, and TPH-G by modified EPA Method 8015 Pursuant to discussions with the RWQCB, the samples were not tested for ethanol or methanol iTables I and 4 present the historic and current (June 2002) analytical test data for the sites respectively Appendix C contains the laboratory reports Note the laboratory reports list several "tentatively identified compounds" that are not typically reported with 8260B compounds The laboratory has informed EAI that these compounds have not been compared to a standard but are listed simply as "tentatively identified" Therefore, these compounds are not listed in either Table 1 or 4 ' BHM 1232RO2,1 -5- ENVIRONMENT4L AUDIT, INC r
