Site Background Information: Enterprise Investments (former J.B. Murphy Trucking) Page 2 of 3 Station, Inc. Product lines were also removed during excavation of the UST. During the UST removal,two soil samples were collected from the floor of the UST excavation,four soil samples from the stockpiled soil, and one grab ground water sample. Total petroleum hydrocarbons quantified as diesel (TPH-d) were reported in each of the soil samples analyzed at concentrations as high as 6,200 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg). BTEX compounds (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes) were not detected in the soil samples analyzed. TPH-d and BTEX compounds were detected in the grab ground water sample at concentrations of 31,000 micrograms per liter(µg/1)TPH-d, 38 µg/l benzene, 12 µg11 toluene, 53 µg/1 ethylbenzene, and 68 µg/l xylenes. `j PREVIOUS SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION =_= On 25 October and 24 November 1999, Lush Geosciences, Inc. excavated trenches TR-1 through TR-9 to maximum depths of approximately 10 feet to 12 feet below surface grade (bsg) to assess the soil and groundwater conditions at the site adj acent to J.B.Murphy Trucking.The trenches were located in close proximity to the former UST location on the property of J.B.Murphy Trucking. Soil samples were collected from depths of 8 feet and 10 feet bsg, and ground water was collected from depths of 9 feet and 10 feet bsg. TPH-d was detected in soil samples collected from trenches TR-1 through TR-4 at concentrations as high as 2,140 mg/kg. TPH-d was also reported in the grab ground - water sample collected at a concentration of 508 mg/l. Only low to non-detectable concentrations rof BTEX compounds were detected. On 13 July 2000, eight soil probe borings (P1 through P8) were advanced at the site as part of assessment activities related to the former UST. TPH-g was detected in the 10-foot soil sample collected from P4 at a concentration of 46 mg/kg. The only BTEX compound detected in soil was ethylbenzene, which was detected in the 10-foot soil sample collected from boring P4 at a concentration of 0.009 mg/kg.TPH-d was detected in soil samples collected from probe borings P 1, P4, and P5 at concentrations as high as 3,400 mg/kg(P4-10).Fuel oxygenated compounds were not detected at or above laboratory reporting limits. Grab ground water samples were collected from borings P 1 through P8 and submitted to a California -= Department of Health Services (DHS)-certified laboratory for analysis. TPH-g was detected in the ground water samples collected from P 1,P2,and P4 at concentrations of 3,100 micrograms per liter (µg/l), 1,300 µg/1, and 2,100 µg11, respectively. TPH-d was detected in the ground water samples collected from P1 through P8 at concentrations as high as 2,900,000 µg/1(P4). BTEX compounds -" were detected in the ground water samples collected from P1 and P4 at concentrations as high as 5.5 gg/l; dissolved benzene was detected at concentrations as high as 3.7 µg/1 (P1). Dissolved MTBE _- was detected in the ground water sample from P4 at a concentration of 8,2 µg11 utilizing EPA Method 8020, and confirmed at a concentration of 7.6 µg11 utilizing EPA Method 8260. No other fuel oxygenated compounds were detected at or above laboratory reporting limits. J Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc.
