The Flag City Chevron site is located approximately 5 riles west of Lodi, California(see Figure 1) at the northeast intersection of Capitol Avenue and Thornton Road,approximately 500 feet south of the intersection of California State Highway 12 and Thornton Road.The property is currently utilized as a Chevron fueling facility and a mini-market(see Figure 2).The facility consists of one building structure,a canopied structure for the fuel dispensing area, and four 12,000-gallon petroleum underground storage tanks(USTs). A ground water treatment system is proposed on the southwest section of the property(see Figure 2). Results of a subsurface investigation at Flag City Chevrons indicates that ground water at the site has been impacted by methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE), total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline and diesel(TPH-g and TPH-d,respectively);low concentrations of dissolved 1,2-dichloroethane(1,2-DCA),tert butanol (TBA), ethanol and methanol have been detected during investigation at the site. A Problem Assessment Report,dated 19 June 2000 and a Final Remediation Plan, dated 31 August 2000 was prepared by AGF,for the site and submitted to the California Regional Water Quality Control.Board-Central Valley Region (RWQCB) as required by the RWQCB's Cleanup and Abatement Order No. )-O.0-M0, dated Oi March 2000. As a result of petroleum-impact to soil and ground water at the Flag City Chevron site, the RWQCB has directed by Cleanup and Abatement Order No. 5-00-700 to install and continuously operate a ground water pump and treat remediation system in the areas of ground water contamination by 01 November 2000. Therefore,AGE intends to install an on-site multi-media ground water remediation system for treatment of extracted ground water. Ground water will be extracted from extraction wells utilizing dedicated, submersible Grundfos pumps and at pumping rates between 3 and 6 gallons per minute(GPM) for a total discharge rate of 25 GPM. From the extraction wells,ground water will be routed to an on-site treatment system.The first stage of treatment will 4005 North Wilson Way.
