Profleet Truck Lube AST Release - 3 - 3 December 2018 <br />Actions: After observing the release of unused motor oil on 13 June 2018, Profleet notified the local <br />fire department, the California Office of Emergency Services, and the San Joaquin County <br />Environmental Health Department on the same day. Profleet engaged Fremouw Environmental <br />Services (FES) to remove oil within the secondary containment. Approximately 4,000 gallons of <br />oil was removed, and the secondary containment area was pressure washed with soapy water. <br />The motor oil was transported as "used oil' and the wash water was transported as "oily water" <br />under two separate manifests to off-site disposal facilities. <br />An inspection of the secondary containment wall found that oil had seeped through cracks at the <br />base of the wall. Profleet engaged FES to excavate and properly dispose of the impacted soil. <br />On 25 June 2018, the top six inches of soil was excavated from the outside of the base of the <br />containment wall. Soil samples were collected and submitted for laboratory analysis that found <br />total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) as diesel from 7.2 to 960 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) and <br />TPH as motor oil from 90 to 15,000 mg/kg. On 3 August 2018, an additional 12 to 18 inches of <br />soil was excavated from the perimeter of the containment wall and confirmation samples were <br />collected for laboratory analysis. TPH as diesel was detected at 2.5 to 15 mg/kg, and TPH as <br />motor oil was detected at 45 to 275 mg/kg. <br />Final Report and Recommendations: A 15 August 2018 Above Ground Tank Re/ease report was <br />prepared by Cook Environmental Service, Inc. documenting the cleanup and requesting No <br />Further Action. The report concludes that the residual concentrations detected in the confirmation <br />soil samples indicate there is no significant risk to human health or the environment, and requests <br />case closure. Central Valley Water Board staff has discussed the remedial activities and the <br />report with San Joaquin County which indicated they are satisfied with the cleanup activities. <br />Based on the relatively low levels of motor oil constituents in the confirmation samples, the low <br />mobility of the oil in the subsurface, the distance from the residual TPH in the soil to groundwater, <br />and discussions with San Joaquin County, Central Valley Water Board staff finds that the motor <br />oil -contaminated soil has been remediated to the extent practicable and recommends No Further <br />Action for the motor oil release cleanup. <br />o <br />4 2019 <br />EMIRONMEN M �'' <br />
