Site Assessment Report, Site Conceptual Model,and Site Investigation Work Plan <br /> R& L Diesel Services; 2417 West Lane, Stockton, California, 95205 <br /> 2.2.3 Plume Characteristics <br /> The plume is primarily composed of petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH-D) lower levels of fuel <br /> oxygenates (BTEX) and the chlorinated hydrocarbon (PCE) derived from used oil. The <br /> petroleum hydrocarbon constituents appear to be weathered, with benzene detected in only one <br /> sample from the site. No fuel oxygenates are present in the plume. <br /> The highest levels of TPH-D, BTEX compounds and chlorinated hydrocarbons (PCE) are found <br /> north of the former UST and directly under the former UST. Maximum concentrations, detected <br /> in B1 at 14 feet bgs, of TPH-D, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, total xylenes and PCE were <br /> 7810 mg/kg, 2.55 ug/kg, 200 ug/kg, 97.3 ug/kg, 407 ug/kg, and 85.5 ug/kg, respectively. <br /> 2.3 Potential Pathway Analysis <br /> 2.3.1 Utility Corridors <br /> Utility corridors which may act as potential preferential pathways have not been fully evaluated at <br /> the site. It is anticipated that, with the preparation of sensitive receptor survey, that additional <br /> information will be collected to identify potential pathways associated with utilities at the site. <br /> 2.3.2 Geologic Pathways_ <br /> The silty sandy soils and limited clay identified during excavation activities at a nearby site <br /> (Pacific Pride, approximately 0.5 miles north on the east side of West Lane) do not provide a <br /> significant barrier to petroleum hydrocarbons constituent migration, although some natural <br /> attenuation will occur within the unsaturated zone as the petroleum hydrocarbons disperse in <br /> the soil. Although not logged at the time of the geoprobe investigation at the R&L Diesel site, a <br /> tight clay layer encountered at approximately 40 feet below grade may act as an impediment to <br /> downward migration of petroleum hydrocarbons and solvents to groundwater. <br /> 2.4 Potential Exposure Analysis <br /> BTEX constituents and chlorinated hydrocarbons can create an exposure risk in certain <br /> circumstances through volatilization and vapor intrusion from shallow soils and groundwater. <br /> Benzene is generally the constituent of greatest concern in these circumstances; however, <br /> levels of benzene present in the samples collected from the spill site and the identified uses of <br /> the spill site are not significant enough to indicate a volatilization risk. Additionally, potential <br /> vapor intrusion into off-site buildings is unlikely due to the low density of structures surrounding <br /> the site and the location of the impacted soil with respect to the nearest structures that are <br /> consistent occupied by people. <br /> 2.4.1 Sensitive Receptors <br /> A sensitive receptor survey has not been conducted for this site. A check of the State of <br /> California Geotracker system lists six public water supply wells nearby but, due to security <br /> concerns, specific location data is not available online for these wells. The scope of work <br /> proposed in this work plan includes the completion of a sensitive receptor survey in accordance <br /> with Section 2654(b)(2), Article, Chapter 16, Division 3, Title 23 of the California Code of <br /> Regulations. <br /> 4 <br />
