A private utility locating service will also be used to locate underground utilities that may be <br /> present in the work areas. A drilling permit application will be completed and submitted to the San <br /> Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD) prior to initiation of drilling activities. <br /> ATC will attempt to obtain off-site access for the proposed off-site drilling locations. ATC will require <br /> authorization from the off-site property owner prior to conducting drilling activities. <br /> Groundwater Monitoring Well Installation <br /> Groundwater monitoring wells associated with the subject site (Figure 3) are genertoky screened in <br /> multiple zones . MWl , MW2, MW3, MW8, MW9, MW10, and MWIIR are screened from <br /> approximately 45 to 68 feet bgs and MW 13 and MW 14 are screened from approximately 45 to 60 feet <br /> bgs in the shallow groundwater zone. MW4, MW5 , MW6, and MW12 are screened from <br /> approximately 85 to 90 feet bgs in the intermediate zone. MW7 is screened from approximately 116 to <br /> 121 feet bgs and MW 15 is screened from approximately 141 to 151 feet bgs <br /> Based on recent subsurface investigation activities conducted at the site, the shallow groundwater <br /> plume appears to be adequately defined in all directions except to the south. Benzene is periodically <br /> detected in groundwater samples collected from MW3 , and MTBE and 1 ,2-DCA have always been <br /> detected in the groundwater samples collected from MW3 and MW9. These wells are located in the <br /> southern portion of the site. Monitoring wells MWl and MW8 continue to be the most impacted with <br /> respect to BTEX constituents, and MW2 and MW3 are the most impacted with respect to MTBE and <br /> 1 ,2-DCA. The intermediate groundwater plume appears to be generally defined to the northwest in the <br /> vicinities of MW12 and MW4, but not well defined in other directions. Groundwater flow in the <br /> shallow zone beneath the site tends to be somewhat variable with eastward and northward <br /> components, but generally trends northeasterly. Groundwater flow in the intermediate zone tends to be <br /> towards the south. <br /> The former Apache Plastics facility located south of the subject site across Fremont Street is a <br /> contaminated underground storage tank site and has a monitoring well network associated with <br /> environmental investigation activities conducted in response to a petroleum hydrocarbon release at that <br /> site. Based on the second quarter 2007 groundwater monitoring results associated with the Apache <br /> Plastics facility, the lateral extent of shallow groundwater contamination appears to be adequately <br /> defined to the west and south, but not to the east and southeast. The intermediate groundwater plume <br /> at the Apache Plastics facility does not appear to be completely defined towards the east and southeast. <br /> Groundwater level measurements collected during the second quarter of 2007 indicate shallow <br /> groundwater at the Apache Plastics facility flows to the east, northeast, and groundwater flow in the <br /> intermediate zone is to the south, southeast. <br /> In order to further evaluate the lateral extent of the shallow groundwater plume, two off-site <br /> monitoring wells are proposed to be installed east of the former Apache Plastic facility at the Central <br /> Valley Lift Truck located at 2080 East Fremont Street. The shallow groundwater monitoring wells are <br /> proposed to be installed east, northeast of existing Apache Plastics monitoring wells MW6 and MW 10 <br /> at the locations shown on Figure 3 .
