Two discrete grab groundwater samples were collected at each CPT location. <br /> The sample collected from the onsite CPT-1 at 60 feet below surface grade (bsg)was reported to <br /> contain 69 micrograms per liter(µg11)total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH)as gasoline, and 0.74 <br /> µg11 methyl tertiary butyl ether(MtBE). SECOR noted that the chromatogram appeared to <br /> indicate that this detection of TPHg was actually 2-ethyl-l-hexanol, a compound which is not a <br /> typical constituent of gasoline or diesel fuel. SECOR states that this compound is commonly <br /> associated with pipe dope. However, the chromatogram was not included in the report for <br /> SJClEHD review, and research has indicated that this compound has been used as a fuel <br /> additive (Phillips 66 Superclean unleaded fuel additive), though it is most commonly used in <br /> consumer building and furnishing products, and in pesticides. Please provide to SJC/EHD a copy <br /> of the chromatogram, as well as documentation of which pipe dope product lists this compound <br /> as an ingredient, and an explanation of how SECOR considers it to be likely that pipe dope is the <br /> source of the detected contamination. <br /> Three shallow monitoring wells, MW-7, MW-8 and MW-9 were installed to investigate the lateral <br /> extent of the shallow groundwater plume in the cross-and down-gradient directions. These wells <br /> were developed and sampled on July 30, 2004. Analytical results indicate that the lateral extent <br /> of the shallow plume has not been defined. The well located furthest down gradient, MW-8, <br /> contained 210 µg11 MtBE. In addition, increasing concentrations of MtBE in well MW-2 indicate <br /> that further investigation must be done to define the lateral extent of the plume towards the west. <br />
