Conducting Pilot Treatment System Testing FACT SHEET#2 DECEMBER 10, 2004 INTRODUCTION This fact sheet contains information for the M&P Investments, Inc. ("M&P Investments") site, located at 40 North Main Street ("the Property") in the City of Lodi ("the City"), County of San Joaquin, California. The property was operated as the "Busy Bee Cleaners" from 1984 through 1996. Dry cleaning chemicals were potentially released to the environment during that time. This fact sheet describes activities that will take place over the next several months for the project including the installation of pilot test and observation wells, temporary trenching, plumbing and system pilot testing work to be performed by M&P Investments in the vicinity of the property. This pilot test is a necessary step before a final remedial system can be implemented. Field investigation work related to the central plume in the downtown Lodi area is ongoing and is not a part of the Busy Bee project. Words or phrases in bold type are defined in the glossary on Page 2. This fact sheet provides information on: • Background • M&P Investments' pilot test treatment system construction and testing • Community involvement BACKGROUND In 1989 and 1990 the City discovered the presence of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in four municipal water supply wells. Investigations conducted since 1989 by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB), the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and others have identified over 50 potential sources of the VOCs, involving industrial and commercial users of VOCs. In the vicinity of the Property, Tokay Printing at 5 West Elm Street, Brackettes Garage at 21 North Stockton Street, former Alamo Ford Car Washing & Polishing at 122'.2 East Pine Street, the former location of Tokay Printing at 10A West Oak Street, and Busy Bee Cleaners have been identified as potential VOC sources. M&P Investments completed a Phase 1 Site Assessment of the soil and groundwater contamination in the vicinity of the Property in October 2002. Fieldwork for Phase 2 and Phase 3 Groundwater Studies was completed in April 2003 and December 2003, respectively. E2C Remediation (E2C) presented the results of the Phase 2 investigation in May 2003 and the Phase 3 investigation in the Draft Remedial Investigation Report/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) Work Plan on April 1, 2004. The Pilot Test Work Plan portion of the draft RI/FS was revised on September 8, 2004 based on review comments made by the RWQCB. Quarterly groundwater monitoring and reporting in 2004 have been performed for the First through Third Quarters of 2004 and reported to the RWQCB. 1
