Work Plan for Phase II Subsurface Investigation <br />14800 West Schulte Road <br />Tracy, California 92612 <br />Partner Project Number 18-217440.1 <br />July 2, 2018 <br />Page I 3 <br />To investigate the identified RECs, Partner will conduct a Phase II Subsurface Investigation. The investigation <br />scope will include the advancement of 10 borings to facilitate the collection and analysis of soil and/or soil <br />gas samples. <br />Scope <br />Sampling procedures will generally conform to the requirements of the San Joaquin County Environmental <br />Health Department (SJCEHD), the SWRCB, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A <br />state-certified laboratory will analyze the samples and the project will be performed under the responsible <br />charge of a qualified Partner representative. Laboratory results will be compared with San Francisco Bay <br />Regional Water Quality Control Board (SFRWQCB) Environmental Screening Levels (ESLs). <br />Partner will perform the following tasks for the Phase II Subsurface Investigation: <br />Prepare a site-specific health and safety plan; <br />Secure the necessary drilling permit from the SJCEHD. Permit acquisition will involve submitting a <br />completed application and site plan to the SJCEHD for review and approval and remitting the necessary <br />fees. The turnaround time of the SJCEHD to issue the permit is expected to be no more than two weeks; <br />Notify the applicable regulatory agencies a minimum of two business days prior to drilling/backfilling <br />activities; <br />Notify Underground Service Alert North (USAN) a minimum of two business days prior to drilling <br />activities to clear public utilities; <br />Perform a geophysical survey on the northwest and south-central portions of the subject property to <br />identify the location of former on-site tankholds and/or existing USTs, piping, and/or associated <br />features and to additionally clear boring locations of utilities. Boring placement will be modified as <br />necessary based on the geophysical survey results to avoid damaging underground features; <br />Advance six borings throughout the subject property (with a bias towards repair operations, paint booth <br />operations, used sand blast media, surface staining, hazardous materials storage areas, sumps, drains, <br />etc.) to a terminal depth of 10 feet bgs, collecting soil samples at two, five, and 10 feet bgs; <br />Advance four borings in the vicinity of the former fuel USTs and gasoline station operations (based on <br />data from the geophysical survey and/or historical records) to a terminal depth of 20 feet bgs, collecting <br />soil samples in five-foot intervals from five feet bgs to the terminal depth; <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 and the soil samples will be collected in a <br />four-ounce jar and three VOAs according to EPA Method 5035. The jars and VOAs will be labeled for <br />identification and stored in an iced cooler. The soil in the liner will be visually inspected for <br />discoloration, monitored for odors, classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System <br />(USCS), placed in a sealable plastic bag, and field-screened with a photoionization detector (PID); <br />Prepare up to 34 soil samples for laboratory analysis; <br />PARTNER
