November 2010 <br /> P0960018t*s, <br /> Project No. 1001-0343 eaoaaseaa,atoll CMIS"a <br /> ® trrvaowrawru.aauMron <br /> The relatively flat surface of the San Joaquin Valley is underlain by alluvial, lacustrine, <br /> and marine sedimentary deposits that accumulated as the structural trough formed as the <br /> adjacent mountain ranges were elevated through tectonic processes. The thickness of the <br /> sediments varies from a thin veneer along the valley margins to thousands of feet thick at the <br /> axis of the trough. The main axis of the trough is oriented north-south along the valley's main <br /> drainage axis. <br /> Based on available reports (Geotracker) of nearby leaking underground storage tank <br /> (LUST) sites located west of the Project Site, groundwater is expected to be present at an <br /> approximate depth of 12 to 15 feet below ground surface. Additionally, shallow groundwater <br /> has been estimated to flow towards the southwest. <br /> 3.0 SCOPE OF WORK <br /> 3.1 PREPARATION OF SITE HEALTH & SAFETY PLAN <br /> Padre has prepared a site-specific Site Health & Safety Plan (HSP) for the subject soil <br /> and groundwater assessment program, which is attached as Appendix B. The HSP includes <br /> procedures, equipment, and materials/supplies employed to protect worker and community <br /> health and safety during the course of the assessment activities. The HSP also includes <br /> provisions for daily tailgate safety meetings. <br /> The HSP portion of the document details all necessary procedures, monitoring <br /> equipment, and other methods that will be employed to protect worker and community health <br /> and safety throughout the course of the assessment program. The HSP lists the chemical <br /> compounds most likely to be encountered during the field operations, and presents established <br /> exposure levels that will not be exceeded. In addition, the HSP lists the nearest appropriate <br /> hospital facility. All on-site personnel will be required to familiarize themselves with and sign the <br /> HSP in an attempt to minimize the potential site hazards. <br /> 3.2 PERMITS <br /> Padre will submit the appropriate drill hole permit application, fee, and supporting <br /> documentation to the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) and <br /> will coordinate with the SJCEHD regarding abandonment of the drill holes. <br /> 3.3 CLEARANCE OF ASSESSMENT LOCATIONS FOR UTILITIES AND PIPELINES <br /> Padre will complete a pre-assessment site visit approximately 5- to 10-days prior to the <br /> scheduled start of field activities. During the course of the pre-assessment site visit, Padre will <br /> demarcate the surface location of each proposed drill hole location with a painted white symbol. <br /> Also, during this site visit, any significant site features (i.e. overhead power lines, sewer lines, <br /> trees, etc.) will be noted and discussed with Padre's project manager prior to the start of work. <br /> Immediately following the site visit, USA will be notified. As part of the notification, USA will be <br /> informed of the type of work planned, including the number of drill hole locations, and will be <br /> 1 10.0343.TWP HSP aSw=nent <br /> - - - 3 - <br />
