Six borings will be advanced to approximately 2 feet below the first encountered native soil. We anticipate native soil will be encountered at a depth of approximately 25 feet below grade(fbg). 3.1 Drilling Procedures At present, there are three 10,000-gallon USTs in a common excavation_ These USTs will be removed and will be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations and guidelines. After the USTs are removed, the excavation will be filled with pea-gravel to replace the volume displaced by the USTs. A Geoprobe drilling rig will then be used to collect soil samples in the locations shown on Figure 2. It is probable that plywood will need to be placed over the pea-gravel to prevent the Geoprobe rig from sinking into the pea-gravel during the investigation. The Geo-probe rig uses a hydraulic ram to push a steel probe into the soil for the purpose of collecting soil samples. A geologist, under the direct supervision of a California Registered Geologist, will log the borings. The geologist will observe significant changes in material penetrated, changes in drilling conditions, hydraulic pressure, and drilling action. The geologist will observe and record changes by time and depth. He will also observe and record the relative moisture content of the samples, soil or rock type, color, grain-size, texture, hardness, presence of hydrocarbons, and most importantly the depth of the pea-gravel/native soil interface. This record will be used later to prepare a detailed lithologic log for each boring. The lithologie log will be included in the UST Closure Report. 3.2 Soil Sampling One soil sample will be collected from each boring two feet below the pea-gravel/native soil interface. Based on our present knowledge of Site conditions this interface is at approximately 251bg. Soil samples will be collected using a Geo-probe sampling core tube with a clear acetate sampling liner. The sampling liner will be cut with a hacksaw to collect a soil sample from the appropriate depth. Immediately after cutting the sampler, the ends will be completely covered with Teflon sheets and end caps will be placed will be placed such that an airtight seal is U1 NlCmba]Pwim NW3944 Swcki=XWmkplandoc
