PERMITTING AND PRE-FIELD WORK PREPARATIONS <br /> Applicable site assessment permits will be obtained from the San Joaquin County Environmental <br /> Health Department(EHD).hi addition,an update to the health and safety plan presently on-file will <br /> be prepared in accordance with Occupational Safety and Health Guidance Manual for Hazardous <br /> Waste Site Activities (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. <br /> Coast Guard and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1985). Prior to mobilization, each probe <br /> boring location will be clearly marked and a utility clearance obtained through Underground Service <br /> Alert. <br /> 3.2. DRILLING AND SOIL SAMPLE COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS <br /> AGE proposes to advance four vertical soil probe borings at the site,using a van-mounted Geoprobe <br /> 5400 direct-push probing unit equipped with 1.25-inch probing rods,to further assess the impact to <br /> soil and ground water from the former UST area.Proposed probe boring locations are illustrated in <br /> Figure 2. <br /> Based on soil contamination encountered in the area of well MW-6 down-gradient of the former <br /> USTs,AGE proposes soil probe borings in the following locations: <br /> • Approximately 10 to 12 feet northwest of MW-6 and a minimum of five feet from the foot <br /> of the retaining wall. This is to further delineate vertical soil and shallow ground water <br /> contamination directly down gradient of the former USTs and up gradient of MW-6. <br /> • Approximately 45 to 50 feet east of MW-6 on the eastern side of the AST enclosure to <br /> further delineate vertical soil and shallow ground water contamination down gradient of the <br /> AST enclosure between MW-6 and MW-7. This boring's location may be modified due to <br /> existing trees and undulating surface topography in the immediate area. <br /> • Approximately 20 to 25 feet northeast of MW-6 on the western side of the ASTs, near the <br /> tank filling station and immediately north of the product piping from the ASTs to the <br /> dispensers. This boring will further delineate vertical and lateral soil and shallow ground <br /> water contamination adjacent to the AST enclosure. <br /> • Approximately 22 to 24 feet northwest of MW-5,this soil boring is to further determine the <br /> lateral extent of contamination in the northern portion of the property up-gradient of MW-5. <br /> Soil boring MW-5 had moderate methyl tertiary butyl ether(MTBE)concentrations detected <br /> in the soil, 1.0 mg/kg in sample MW54 and 0.017 mg/kg in sample MW-5-14; and the <br /> groundwater samples at MW-5 have had elevated amounts of MTBE and total petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons quantified as gasoline(TPH-g)the last three quarters. <br /> Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc. <br />
