Work Plan for Phase II Subsurface Investigation <br />930 East Charter Way <br />Stockton, California 95206 <br />Partner Project Number 17-204651.2 <br />February 1, 2018 <br />Page I 3 <br />Downgradient of 1 40 Soil 2, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, <br />Former USTs & Auto 30, 35, 40 <br />Repair Operations Groundwater 30-40 <br />Soil samples will be collected using a two-foot long by 1.5-inch diameter sampler with a two-foot long <br />acetate liner and sampling point. The sampler will be advanced by a direct-push drill rig using four- <br />foot long (three-foot long for the limited-access rig) by 1.25-inch diameter hollow rods with the inner <br />rods in place. At approximately one foot above the desired sampling depth, an inner rod was removed <br />and the sampler was advanced to the desired sampling depth to allow undisturbed soil to enter the <br />sampling liner. The sampler will be retrieved from the subsurface and the soil-filled liner will be <br />removed; <br />Each acetate liner will be cut using a hacksaw or pipe-cutter. The liner will be capped on either end <br />with Teflon tape and plastic caps. The capped liners will be labeled for identification and stored in an <br />iced cooler. The soil in the liner will be visually inspected for discoloration, monitored for odors, <br />classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), placed in a sealable plastic <br />bag, and field-screened with a photoionization detector (PID); <br />After soil sampling to the terminal depth, groundwater samples will be collected by withdrawing the <br />drill rods from the subsurface and installing 1/4 -inch diameter temporary monitoring wells within the <br />open boreholes. Each monitoring well will consist of a five-foot long, 0.010-inch factory-slotted <br />polyvinyl chloride (PVC) screen at the terminal end and blank PVC risers from the top of the screen <br />interval to the ground surface. <br />Groundwater samples will be retrieved from each monitoring well using a new section of 3/8-inch <br />diameter polyethylene tubing fed through a peristaltic pump and conveyed into five hydrochloric acid- <br />preserved VOA vials. Each vial will be filled with no observable headspace or air bubbles to minimize <br />the potential for volatilization, labeled for identification, and stored in an iced cooler. <br />Prepare up to 40 soil samples and two groundwater samples for laboratory analysis; <br />Construct a soil gas probe in each interior boring (four probes total) at five feet bgs. The final screening <br />depth at each borehole will be adjusted based on the encountered lithology. In general possible; <br />Collect and prepare up to four soil gas samples for laboratory analysis using laboratory-provided, batch- <br />certified SUMMA canisters; <br />Analyze each soil gas sample for VOCs in accordance with EPA Method TO-15/8260; <br />Based on field-screening results, analyze one soil sample per boring (eight soil samples total) and each <br />groundwater sample (six groundwater samples total) for carbon chain total petroleum hydrocarbons <br />(TPH-cc) in accordance with EPA Method 8015 and for VOCs in accordance with EPA Method 8260; <br />Additionally, analyze one shallow soil sample per boring (eight soil samples total) for California <br />Administrative Manual 17 metals in accordance with EPA Method 6010B/7471A; <br />Samples will be transported under proper chain-of-custody protocol in an iced cooler to SunStar <br />Laboratories, Inc. (a state-certified laboratory [California Department of Public Health Environmental <br />Laboratory Accreditation Program Certificate Number 2250] in Lake Forest, California) for analysis; <br />Following sampling activities, each boring will be backfilled with neat cement grout and capped with <br />concrete or asphalt patch to match surrounding ground; and <br />Prepare a report detailing field activities, methods, and findings. <br />PARTNER
