CLEARWATER <br /> C, R O U 1' <br /> • Enveronrnentuf Servrcrs <br /> 8) in three of the soil borings All three wells were placed on the downgradient portion of the <br /> plume to help determine the downgradient extent of contaminants The hydropunch was <br /> performed in the former UST location to assess the vertical extent of groundwater contamination <br /> at 36 feet bgs Three soil borings were taken to define the lateral extent of soil and groundwater <br /> contamination on the northeastern portion of the site and assess possible off-site sources Three <br /> soil samples and one groundwater sample were analyzed from each boring Soil concentrations <br /> of TPHg and BTEX were detected only in boring MW-5B The highest soil concentration of <br /> TPHg (1,000 mglkg) was detected at 25 feet bgs in MW-513 This sample was also analyzed for <br /> TPH as Jet Fuel and found to contain 55 mg/kg Detectable concentrations of BTEX were <br /> present in soil samples collected from bonng MW-5B at 25 feet and 35 feet bgs MTBE was not <br /> detected by EPA method 8260 in any of the soil samples analyzed Groundwater concentrations <br /> of TPHg and BTEX were detected in borings SB-9, MW-5B, MW-7 and MW-8 The highest <br /> groundwater concentration of TPHg (9,700 µg/L) was detected in MW-5B MTBE was not <br /> detected by EPA method 8260 in any of the groundwater samples analyzed <br /> A dual-phase test well and air sparge point was installed at the site in February 2002 Remedial <br /> feasibility testing at the site was conducted during the week of March 10, 2002 The Well <br /> Installation and Feasibility Testing Report was submitted on May 9, 2002 From data collected <br /> during these activities, Clearwater developed and submitted a Corrective Action Plan dated <br /> November 20, 2002 to the SJC/EHD <br /> Beginning in June, 2000 groundwater in all monitoring wells has been sampled on a calendar <br /> quarterly basis These sampling events took place on June 6, 2000, August 28, 2000, November <br /> 14, 2000, February 13, 2001, May 30, 2001, August 22, 2001, October 11, 2001, February 14, <br /> 2002, May 10, 2002, September 30, 2002 Reports documenting these activities have been <br /> previously transmitted to the SJC/EHD by Clearwater <br /> OBJECTIVES <br /> In continuance of quarterly groundwater monitoring activities, the objectives of this current <br /> project were to gather groundwater samples from all monitoring wells at the site and to analyze <br /> the groundwater samples for hydrocarbon contamination In addition, an MNA study was <br /> initiated this quarter, and chemical parameters and groundwater samples were collected These <br /> data will serve for preliminary assessment of site suitability (discussed below) and as baseline <br /> GROUNDWATER MONITORING AND SAMPLING ACTIVITIES <br /> Groundwater monitoring and sampling activities were conducted on March 5, 2003 <br /> Groundwater elevation data were obtained from each of the monitoring wells utilizing an <br /> electronic water level indicator The water level indicator was thoroughly washed in an <br /> Alconox® soap bath and double rinsed with clean tap water prior to placement in each well to <br /> prevent possible water quality influence from exterior sources, and to prevent cross <br /> contamination Groundwater elevations were derived and are tied to established well surface <br /> elevation data (Table 1) <br /> ZB178C/1Q03 Monitoring Rpt 3 April 23,2003 <br />
