Ms.Lori Duncan f October 27,2010 Page 3 of 4 Groundwater monitoring wells MW3, EW1, EW3 and VWI were destroyed by overdrilling between October 5 and 7, 2010, by V&W using a drill rig equipped with 8-inch and 10-inch diameter hollow stem augers. A guide/centering rod was installed at the tip of the drill bit to ensure the augers were centered upon each well during the over-drilling process. Upon completion, the borings were grouted with neat cement grout, through the augers, to just below the ground surface. Surface completion consisted of concrete dyed black to match the existing surface. Extraction well (EW3), located in the field was backfilled with neat cement to approximately 3 feet bgs and surface completion consisted of native soil. Waste Disposal All soil generated during the destruction activities was placed in DOT approved 55-gallon drums, which were stored on site pending disposal. Two composite soil samples were analyzed for constituents required for soil disposal. All soil samples were collected into brass sleeves via slide hammer sample device, uniquely labeled, temporarily stored in an ice chest refrigerated to a temperature of approximately 4°C, and delivered under chain of custody protocol to Argon Laboratories (FLAP #2359) for analysis. The results were sent to Republic/Forward Landfill for soil profile approval. On October 19, 2010, twenty eight (28) 55-gallon drums of well destruction derived waste, and three drums of grout generated during previous site activities, were transported by Jim Thorpe Oil, Inc. to Republic/Forward Landfill for disposal. A Copy of the waste manifest has been included in Attachment B. Site Restoration Carbon Removal On September 30, 2010, a Ground Zero technician collected two carbon samples for waste profiling purposes; one from an aqueous phase carbon vessel and one from a vapor phase carbon vessel. The samples were sent to McCampbell Analytical, Inc. (ELAP #1644) for analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). A copy of the laboratory report has been included in Attachment C. On October 7, 2010, technicians from Baker Corp removed the used carbon from all of the carbon vessels located on site. The carbon was vacuumed out of each vessel, transferred into a hopper and loaded into large sacks for transport to the Baker Corp facility for recycling. Approximately 8,200 pounds (lbs) of carbon was removed from three 2,000 lbs aqueous phase carbon vessels, one 200 lbs aqueous phase carbon vessel and two 1,000 lbs vapor phase carbon vessels. Treatment System Equipment Removal Between October 8 and October 25, 2010, Del Tech Geotechnical Services with the help of Ground Zero personnel removed the empty carbon vessels, the groundwater treatment system equipment, the vapor extraction system equipment, the associated piping and the vapor extraction system compound fencing. No remediation equipment remains on site. G:%GROUNDZEITULEBERG1Reporis\Other\Well Dest Rpt.doc
