' Table 2-1 <br /> Leaching Potential Analysis for Gasoline and Diesel <br />' Using Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) <br /> . and Benzene, Toluene, Xylene and Ethylbenzene (BTX&E) <br />' The following table was designed to permit estimating the <br /> concentrations of TPH and BTX&E that can be left in place without <br /> threatening ground water. Three levels of TPH and BTX&E <br /> concentrations were derived (from modeling) for sites which fall into <br /> categories of low, medium or high leaching potential . To use the <br /> table, find the appropriate description for each of the features . <br />' Score each feature using the weighting system shown at the top of <br /> each column. Sum the points for each column and total them. Match <br /> the total points to the allowable BTX&E and TPH levels. <br /> S SCORE 1 S SCORE S SCORE <br /> SITE C 10 PTS C 9 PTS C 5 PTS <br /> O IF CON- O IF CON- O IF CON- <br /> FEATURE R DITION R DITION R DITION <br /> E IS MET E IS MET E IS MET <br />' Minimum Depth to >100 51-100 25-50\1 <br /> Ground Water from the <br /> Soil Sample ( feet) <br /> Fractures in subsurface None Unknown Present <br /> (applies to foothills <br /> or mountain areas) <br /> Average Annual <10 10-25 26-40\2 <br /> Precipitation (inches) <br /> Man-made conduits which / None Unknown Present <br /> Iincrease vertical <br /> migration of leachate f ` <br /> Unique site features : �/ None At least More <br /> recharge area, coarse one than one <br /> soil , nearby wells, etc <br /> COLUMN TOTALS-TOTAL PTS ZO + + <br /> RANGE OF TOTAL POINTS 49pts or more 41 - 48 pts 40pts or less <br /> MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE 1/50/50/50 . 3/ . 3/1/1 NA\3 <br /> B/T/X/E LEVELS (PPM) <br /> MAXIMUM GASOLINE 1000 100 j 10 <br /> ALLOWABLE TPH <br /> LEVELS (PPM) DIESEL 10000 1000 100 <br /> LIf depth is greater than 5 ft. and less than 25 ft. , score <br /> I Opoints. <br /> If depth is 5 ft. or less, this table should not be used. <br /> \2 If precipitation is over 40 inches, score 0 points . <br /> Levels for BTX&E are not applicable at a TPH concentration of <br /> 10ppm (gasoline) or 1OOppm (diesel) <br /> 2 <br />
