However, to fulfill the investigation objective of addressing the data <br />gap of soil concentrations in the southern direction from the source of the release, <br />PSC would prefer to keep the location of CPT -4 close to the southern property <br />boundary rather than moving the location approximately 10-15 feet north as <br />recommended by EHD. PSC proposes to use a membrane interface probe (MIP) <br />to vertically delineate impact to 100 feet below ground surface (bgs). This <br />exploration tool will collect semi -quantitative data on concentrations of <br />contaminants of concern (COC) as well as soil conductivity to profile impact and <br />lithology for the full depth of exploration. A discrete soil sample will still be <br />collected at 23 feet bgs to quantitatively assess the concentrations detected in <br />H11. This sample will be analyzed for the COC; gasoline (TPH-g); benzene, <br />toluene, ethyl benzene, and total xylenes (BTEX); methyl tertiary -butyl ether <br />(MTBE), ethyl tertiary -butyl ether (ETBE), di -isopropyl ether (DIPE), tertiary <br />amyl -methyl ether (TAME), tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA), and 1,2-dichloroethane <br />V <br />(1,2 -DCA). A revised Figure 10 from the original Work Plan showing the new <br />proposed location for CPT -4 is included in the attached Addendum. The <br />Addendum also presents a discussion on the revised CPT and MIP procedures. <br />L <br />2. ETIC proposes to advance CPT -5 at the eastern edge of the former gasoline UST <br />excavation about two feet east of borehole 2B. EHD believes CPT -5 would be <br />A. better located haffivay between boreholes 2A and 2B, approximately in the center <br />of the <br />,,former UST pit, and closer to borehole H9 where high concentrations of <br />CO ere detected in groundwater samples and soil samples collected at 54 feet <br />bgs in November 2006. In addition to collecting grab groundwater samples, soil <br />samples should be collected to vertically delineate hydrocarbon contamination at <br />the source area. <br />PSC agrees to move CPT -5 in the location recommended by EHD. The method <br />i of investigation proposed in the work plan is cone penetration testing (CPT). <br />L. Cone Penetrometer rigs are not well suited for collection of multiple soil samples E l.{ i nom` <br />to vertically delineate samples. In lieu of collecting soil samples at 5 -foot 5✓M-Z `A <br />i intervals in CPT -5, PSC proposes to use the MIP to vertically delineate impact toM <br />�. 100 feet bgs. A revised Figure 10 from the original Work Plan showing the new <br />proposed location for CPT -5 is included in the attached Addendum. As <br />previously mentioned, the Addendum presents a discussion on the revised CPT <br />i- and MIP procedures. <br />3. ETIC proposes to advance CPT -6 approximately three feet west of borehole Hl; <br />4. and in addition to collecting grab groundwater samples, ETIC proposes to collect <br />two soil samples at depths of approximately 30 and 35 feet bgs to laterally <br />` delineate hydrocarbon contamination north of the former gasoline UST <br />\\\ excavation. EHD recommends CPT -6 be located in line with H9 and H16, <br />approximately twelve feet north of borehole H16.
