21 January 2004 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 95-0135 <br /> Page 2 of 7 <br /> Based on data collected from the site in April 2003,the average depth to ground water at the site is <br /> approximately 61 feet below surface grade(bsg).The ground water in April 2003 was inferred to be <br /> flowing toward the east-northeast under a gradient of 0.0007 ft/ft. <br /> 2.2. UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANK REMOVAL <br /> Two 5,000-gallon USTs (Nos. 1 and 2), one 12,000-gallon UST (No. 3), and one 500-gallon UST <br /> (No. 4), associated dispensers and product piping were removed from the site on 13 January 1999. <br /> The USTs were removed from three separate excavations located near the repair facility(Figure 2). <br /> Upon removal of the USTs,soil samples were collected from the floors of the excavations at depths <br /> between 8 feet and 14 feet below surface grade(bsg). Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as <br /> gasoline(TPH-g)were detected at concentrations as high as 29,800 milligrams per kilogram(mg/kg); <br /> volatile aromatics (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes: BTEX) were detected at <br /> concentrations as high as 2,490 mg/kg; and methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) was detected at <br /> concentrations as high as 9.1 mg/kg. Trichloroethene was also detected in a soil sample collected <br /> beneath UST(No.4)at a concentrations of 220 microgram per kilogram(µg/kg).Tetrachloroethene <br /> and WE were also detected in a soil sample collected from the UST (No. 4) stockpile at a <br /> concentrations of 2,100 gg/kg and 490 gg/kg, respectively. Analytical results of the soil samples <br /> collected during January 1999 are displayed in Tables 1 and 2. <br /> 2.3. PREVIOUS SITE ASSESSMENT AND SAMPLING <br /> On 10 and 11 June 1999, AGE advanced five borings B1,B2,B3, B4, and B5,to depths of 64, 55, <br /> 30,30,and 55 feet below surface grade(bsg),respectively. One of the five borings(B1/MW-1)was <br /> completed as a ground water monitoring well. <br /> TPH-g was detected in soil sample B1-40' at a concentration of 1.6 mg/kg. Additionally, BTEX <br /> compounds were detected in sample B1-40' at concentrations as high as 0.20 mg/kg. The fuel <br /> oxygenate MTBE was detected at concentrations of 3,400 micrograms per kilogram(ug/kg)and 67 <br /> ug/kg in samples B1-30'and B2-30',respectively.TPH-d and TPH-mo were not detected in thesoil <br /> samples analyzed. <br /> A total of three grab ground water samples were submitted for analysis. TPH-g was detected in the <br /> ground water sample collected from boring B1, at a concentration of 2,400 micrograms per liter <br /> (ug/1). TPH-g was not detected in the grab ground water samples B2-W and B5-W collected from <br /> borings B2 and B5. BTEX compounds were detected in grab ground water samples collected from <br /> B 1 and B2 at concentrations as high as 170 ug/l and 1.7 ug/l,respectively.BTEX compounds were <br /> Advanced GeoEnviron mental,Inc. <br />
