«- <br /> NO, <br /> Ms. Diane Hinson -2- <br /> 2 June 1989 <br /> Stat regulations require that during tank emovals a soil sample is to be <br /> col ected beneath the product pipelines for every 20 lineal feet of pipeline. <br /> e soil samples are to be collected within the first two feet of native <br /> s it eath the pipeline trench. These sh llow borings could be done using a <br /> and auger. <br /> As requested in our 17 March 1989 letter to Mr Brophy, quarterly ground water <br /> monitoring should be initiated. Water samples are to be analyzed for benzene, <br /> toluene, xylene and ethylbenzene (BTX&E) anc total petroleum hydrocarbons ' <br /> (TPH) as gasoline and diesel . Quarterly mo itoring reports should be <br /> quartered by_.,mid-ApELj Jul v Ocetobei, and angary -for .the-. .preyious,calendar <br /> _. _ Ys <br /> The Tri-Regional Recommendations specify that a monitoring well be installed <br /> within ten feet of the tank pit in the verified downgradient direction. This <br /> monitoring well should be installed, but we recommend that ground water levels <br /> be measured and gradient direction calculated once again prior to selecting <br /> the installation location. <br /> In summary, we recommend the following work be conducted at this site: <br /> 1. Soil borings should be drilled north and east of the tank pit to <br /> determine the extent of soil contamination. Ideally, the western extent <br /> should also be determined, but the proximity of the building makes it <br /> impractical . i <br /> 02- Soil samples are to be collected for every 20 lineal feet of product <br /> pipeline and beneath the pump islands. If the pipelines have not been <br /> removed, they are to be removed at this time. <br /> 3. ..,Quarterly ground .water monitoring of water levels and BTX&E and TPH as <br /> gasoline and diesel should be initiate f. <br /> 4.
