The California Coast <br /> _ Range and the Sierra Nevada form the western and eastern boundaries of this <br /> province. Rocks composing the basement complex of the province have not been <br /> completely defined but are believed to be of metamorphic and igneous origin. The <br /> - northern and southern portions of the Great Valley Province have been designated the <br /> Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys, respectively. <br /> The Modesto, Riverbank, and Turlock Lake Formations and overlying recent alluvium <br /> are the principal source of domestic ground water in the 13,500-square-mile San <br /> Joaquin Valley Ground Water Basin (Basin 5-22). This basin is drained primarily by the <br /> San Joaquin River. <br /> 2.2. PREVIOUS REMEDIATION FEASIBILITY EVALUATION AND <br /> RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> The SJCEHD had previously directed the preparation of a groundwater remediation <br /> feasibility evaluation for the southern UST area. Shallow soil remediation was previously <br /> performed in two separate phases at each UST area; primarily during the UST removals <br /> and subsequently during deeper excavations of impacted soils extending to the upper <br /> portion of the water table. <br /> Assessment of deep, dissolved MTBE, east of the former northern UST area has been <br /> mostly completed. However, assessment of all dissolved petroleum east of the former <br /> UST No. 3, southern area has not been completed and dissolved hydrocarbons are <br /> - likely migrating east to northeast of the southern UST area. Well MW-8B, located <br /> between the UST areas, has not been impacted by significant petroleum hydrocarbon <br /> concentrations, and during routine monitoring events was non-detect for all petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons. <br /> The EHD has directed the limits of the dissolved plumes in the HU2 zone be defined to <br /> determine if the remaining dissolved impact meets the criteria established in the Low- 31S/�S <br /> Threat UST Case Closure Policy (LTCP), as a requirement for site closure. Based on <br /> depth to groundwater measurements colle��d in 2013 at the site, first-encountered (:5-W r`'bs- <br /> groundwater in the area is approximately � feet bsg, while deeper groundwater is <br /> significantly impacted between 40 and 60 feet bsg. The site groundwater monitoring <br /> well network lacks wells to define the later extent of deeper dissolved petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons and thus is an impediment to site closure. <br /> 3.0. SCOPE OF WORK <br /> AGE proposes to advance three (3) and potentially up to four (4) soil probe borings and <br /> three monitoring wells for the collection of repeatable groundwater samples to define <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmental Inc. <br />
