�i Color Spot, Inc. SGD <br /> March 19, 1991 (M88168F) 3 <br /> standards (DWS) at that time. Trace concentrations of benzene were found in all <br /> four wells which were sampled. <br /> A PHS-EHD letter dated January 17, 1990, required Color Spot, Inc. <br /> to conduct a ground water investigation at the site. SGD responded to this <br /> requirement in a letter-report entitled, Response Reply to the San Joaquin Countv <br /> Public Health Services Environmental Health Division letter dated January 17 <br /> 1990, dated April 4, 1990. SGD concluded that Color Spot, Inc. should not be <br /> required to implement a ground water investigation and that PHS-EHD should <br /> investigate other possible sources of the benzene concentration found in the <br /> surrounding water wells. Because PHS-EHD could not be convinced of this <br /> recommendation, Color Spot, Inc. elected to have SGD conduct a supplemental site <br /> assessment in the vicinity of the former UST. <br /> This supplemental site assessment was conducted with the approval of <br /> PHS-EHD during the week of October 8, 1990. Results of the assessment are <br /> documented in the SGD report entitled, Supplemental Site Assessment Color Spot <br /> Inc_. Facility. 5400 East Harney Lane Lodi California, dated November 1990. <br /> Benzene concentrations were not detected in any of the soil samples nor the <br /> ground water sample collected from within the hollow stem auger. <br /> FINDINGS <br /> RESULTANT FINDINGS OF ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES <br /> The UST has been properly removed and abandoned at the site in the <br /> presence of a PHS-EHD inspector, and in compliance with all PHS-EHD requirements. <br /> Following the collection of soil samples from the resultant excavation, the PHS- <br /> EHD inspector refused permission for additional soils excavation to remove <br /> contaminated soils. The inspector stated that PHS-EHD would require the <br /> submittal of a remedial action plan for review and approval prior to the <br /> implementation of additional site work. <br /> To facilitate the development of an adequate remedial action plan, <br /> SGD conducted a soil vapor survey in the vicinity of the former UST. The results <br /> of the soil vapor survey indicated that soil contamination existed within the <br /> shallow subsurface (0 to 6 feet below the ground surface) of the UST excavation <br /> and did not appear to have migrated laterally outside of the UST excavation, and <br /> appeared to be limited to the southwest corner of the excavation. <br /> SGD recommended that because the extent of the soil contamination <br /> appeared to be limited, the remaining contaminated soil be excavated and then <br /> remediated with the contaminated soil generated during the removal of the UST by <br />
