' the expected lead intake due to inhalation of ambient air, ingestion of drinking water, and <br /> consumption of produce grown on the site in addition to the ingestion, inhalation and dermal <br /> contact with the soil. The program calculates the expected blood lead concentration resulting <br /> ' from occupancy of the property for both adults and children and for residential and occupational <br /> (commercial/industrial) exposure. The output section of the spreadsheet displays the calculated <br /> blood lead value and also displays the soil lead concentrations (PRG-99) that would be expected <br /> to result in a blood lead concentration of 10 micrograms/deciliter. 10 ug/dl is the US Centers for <br /> Disease Control's level of concern for adverse health effects. <br /> The PRG-99 for residental exposure for an average child is 146 ppm, and for the more sensitive <br /> pica child (eats dirt) is 94 ppm. Both these values are greater than the maximum concentration <br /> on the site. Utilizing the UCL soil concentration of 73 ppm (which is higher than the maximum <br /> ' detected level) the calculated blood lead concentration for a residential occupant of the site, from <br /> all sources of exposure, is only 7.2 ug/dl for a normal child and 8.8 ug/dl for a pica child. <br /> iThe lead in soil at the site would not pose a significant health risk under a residential property <br /> use. The Leadspread input and output data are presented in Table 4. <br /> 6.0 COMMUNITY PROFILE <br /> The subject property is located on the western boundary of the incorporated area of the City of <br /> Stockton. According to the 2002 US Census the population of the City is approximately <br /> 265,000. Approximately 8,500 individuals live within one mile of the site. Land use to the <br /> east of the Village West Marina is fully developed for residential and commercial use. Land to <br /> the west of the site is part of the San Joaquin/Sacramento River Delta and is agricultural. The <br /> Marina itself is utilized primarily for non-resident boat storage although according to the <br /> manager approximately 10 or 12 individuals are living on their boats. Given the proximity of <br /> the property to the Delta and the aquatic recreation demand of nearby population centers we <br /> ' would not anticipate a change in use in the near future. <br /> We are not aware of any community or media interest in this minor contamination case. <br /> 7.0 CONCLUSIONS <br /> ' The concentrations of COPCs in soil at the site would not present a significant toxicity hazard to <br /> potential residential occupants (Hazard Index <1 and blood lead concentration < 10 ug/dl). The <br /> lifetime excess cancer risk associated with potential exposure to the COPCs in the soil under a <br /> residential property use is insignificant (less than one chance in one million). No significant risk <br /> to human health exists due to the presence of COPCs in the soil at the site. <br /> The extremely low solubility of the copper in the site soil (less than 1%) and actual DI-WET <br /> leachate concentrations which are at least an order of magnitude below drinking water standards <br /> 9 <br />
