ATC <br />ENVIRONMENTAL • GEOTECHNICAL <br />BUILDING SCIENCES • MATERIALS TESTING <br />L7 Lone Palm Avenue, Suite 201B <br />Modesto, CA 95351 <br />Telephone 209-579-2221 <br />Fax 209-579-2225 <br />www.ategroupservices.com <br />include three in the up-gradient or immediate cross-gradient direction to the west and north of the former <br />USTs, and six borings in the down-gradient and extended cross-gradient direction to the east and northeast <br />of the former USTs. Proposed boring locations are shown on Figure 2. <br />Three of the borings will be advanced using cone penetrating test (CPT) methods. The CPT borings will <br />be advanced to an estimated depth of 60 ft bgs (or refusal). The borings will be advanced using a direct <br />push CPT rig that will log soil lithology from approximately five feet bgs to the maximum explored depth. <br />Groundwater samples will be collected from separate boreholes advanced adjacent to the CPT boring, <br />and from the additional six locations, using a modified HydroPunch® sampler. Prior to groundwater <br />sampling, a water level meter will be used to confirm that the drive rods do not contain water. The sampler <br />will then be driven to approximately three feet below the desired sampling depth, and retracted three feet <br />to expose the disposable schedule 20 polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen and allow for groundwater to enter <br />the HydroPunche sampler. The water sample will be collected by lowering a 3/4-inch diameter stainless <br />steel bailer through the drive rods to groundwater. The groundwater will be bailed from the drive rods, <br />decanted from the bailer into 40-milliliter (ml) volatile organic analysis (VOA) vials. Following the <br />collection of the sample, the drive rods will be retracted, leaving the disposable drive tip and four-foot <br />length of PVC well screen in the hole. Following completion, the borings will be grouted through the <br />drive rods from the total depth explored to surface grade with neat cement. <br />ATC anticipates that a minimum of two groundwater samples will be collected from each boring at <br />screened intervals between 40 and 60 feet bgs. Following groundwater sample collection, the borings <br />will be backfilled with neat cement grout to the ground surface. Drill cuttings, if any, will be stored on- <br />site in 55-gallon containers pending laboratory results after which disposal arrangements will be made. <br />Laboratory Analysis <br />Groundwater and soil samples collected will be submitted for chemical analysis and be sent under chain- <br />of-custody documentation to a California state certified laboratory. Samples will be collected and <br />analyzed for TPHg, BTEX, and fuel oxygenates, including MTBE and TBA, using EPA Method 8260. <br />Reporting <br />Following the completion of the field activities, ATC will submit a summary report. The report will <br />include CPT and boring logs; tabulated vapor, soil, and groundwater analytical results; chain-of-custody <br />documentation, conclusions and recommendations for future work, if needed. <br />SCHEDULE <br />Boring permits will be obtained from the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department prior to <br />the commencement of drilling activities. <br />Upon approval of this work plan, ATC will immediately submit permit requests and begin to implement <br />the scope of work. A report summarizing the work will be submitted approximately 4 weeks following <br />receipt of the analytical results. <br />S: \62596 \reports \SVIS_WP_ADD-2016.doc <br /> 5 ATC
