20 BACKGROUND <br /> May 1991, three underground storage tanks (USTs)were removed from a common tank pit as shown <br /> In the Detailed Site Plan, Figure 3 Strong petroleum hydrocarbon odors and discolored soil were <br /> noted in the tank pit Confirmation soil samples were collected and laboratory analysis of those <br /> samples confirmed the presence of total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPHg) Several <br /> subsurface investigations partially defined the extent of Impacts in soil and groundwater resulting in <br /> the installation of nine groundwater monitoring wells (MW-1 through MW-9) The contaminants of <br /> concern Include TPHg, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes (BTEX), methyl tert-butyl ether <br /> ' (MTBE), tert-butanol (TBA), di-Isopropyl ether (DIPE), ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) and tert-amyl <br /> methyl ether (TAME) otherwise known as fuel oxygenate compounds (FOCs), 1,2-dichloroetliane <br /> (1,2-DCA), and 1,2-dibromoctlnane (EDB) <br /> In September 2000, Secor International Incorporated (Secor) began the remedial investigation and <br /> oversaw the installation of six soil vapor extraction (SVE) wells (VI through V6) and one air sparge <br /> (AS) well (AS-1) in or adjacent to the former tank pit at the Site (Figure 3) Soil samples collected <br />' from V-1, V-2, V-3, and AS-1 contained elevated concentrations of BTEX, TPHg, and MTBE <br /> Soil Vapor Extraction & Air Sparge Feasibility Testing <br /> In October 2000, Secor conducted a two-day SVE and AS feasibility test using wells V 1 through V6 <br /> and AS-1 Based on the test results, the total mass of TPHg and benzene removed during the <br /> SVE/AS feasibility test was 102 pounds and 1 9 pounds, respectively Based on the induced vacuum <br /> iesponse (0 2 inches of water at 40 feet) and the slight rise in groundwater levels in offsetting <br /> monitoring wells, the SVE radius of Influence was estimated to be 40 feet Although the air sparging <br /> did not result in an immediate Increase In TPHg vapor concentrations, the increase in dissolved <br /> oxygen concentration and slight rise in the water table in offsetting wells indicate a radius of <br /> influence of approximately 30 feet Details related to the feasibility test are presented Ili Secor's <br /> Ploblein Assessment Report dated November 8, 2000 <br /> Final Remediation Plan <br /> SECOR submitted a Final Remediation Plan (FRP) on March 2, 2001, that was approved by the <br /> California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region, (RWQCB) In a letter <br /> dated March 26, 2001 <br /> Due to an expansion of the remedial objectives, Secor submitted a Work <br /> p ] Plan for Remedial <br /> Approach and Well Installation dated May 2, 2002 The RWQCB approved the work plan Ili a letter <br /> dated May 13, 2002 The final remediation plan Includes 10 soil vapor extraction (SVE) wells (VI <br /> thi ough V 10 each approximately 30 feet deep) and 20 ozone-sparge wells (S I through S20, each 43 <br />' to 45 feet deep) <br /> PtOlLct tufo ',8043-06-41 -2- luly 1 2004 <br />
