Michael Leacox <br /> Page 4 of 11 <br /> Chemcial Disposal Pit Characterization, UC Davis Landfill, Davis, California — <br /> Project included the development of plans to identify and characterize chemical disposal <br /> pits with unknown laboratory chemicals generated by the research laboratories. <br /> Concerns included potential exposures during chemical and site characterization <br /> activities, nearby workers, and the public. Project included implementation of an <br /> aggressive health and safety plan that required evaluation for offsite migration of <br /> chemicals and dust, potential for implementing Level A protection and evacuation plans. <br /> Pole Treating Facility, National Park Service, Susanville, California - Project <br /> consultant at a former telephone pole treating facility. Project included facility <br /> characterization, preparation of work plans, telephone development, implementing <br /> regulatory negotiations, and public relations for former telephone pole treating facility. <br /> Diesel fuel, pentachlorophenol (PCP), and dioxins are present in both soil and <br /> groundwater at the site. <br /> Multidisciplinary project, Food Processor facilities, California - Program manager <br /> for major food processor in California. Projects have included waste disposal <br /> investigations, asbestos and lead paint evaluations, CEQA permitting of wastewater to <br /> land disposal, underground storage tank investigations and closure, groundwater <br /> investigation associated with former wastewater disposal practices, and design and <br /> construction of wastewater management systems. Responsibilities included maintaining <br /> task schedules and budgets, quality control, and customer satisfaction. <br /> Railyard remedial investigation, Santa Ana, California - Managed and conducted <br /> Phase I, Phase II and site characterization site assessments to evaluate the potential <br /> impact to soil and groundwater from past operations at a major railroad facility. Phase II <br /> investigation included installation of groundwater monitoring wells and soil borings to <br /> evaluate areas of concern identified in the Phase I survey. <br /> Railyard investigation, Sacramento, California - Managed investigation to evaluate <br /> the lateral and vertical extent of impacted soil and groundwater associated with a <br /> previous oil recycling and railroad facility. Investigation included the installation of <br /> groundwater monitoring wells and soil borings, and evaluating analytical data. <br /> Dry cleaner solvent investigation, Turlock, California — Project Manager for <br /> characterization services to the City of Turlock in Stanislaus County to support the <br /> preparation of a comprehensive Groundwater Management Plan (GMP) to comply with a <br /> 1994 agreement with the Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region <br /> and the California Department of Toxic Substances Control. The GMP provides an <br /> overall tool for the protection of municipal wells and the management of groundwater <br /> contaminated by PCE in Turlock. Project include the negotiation of a scope of work with <br /> the RWQCB on behalf of the City of Turlock to initiate an enhanced biodegradation <br /> remediation pilot study at the Site to remove hot-spots of PCE in groundwater as part of <br /> the GMP. This plan was initiated in early 2000 and NCE Staff is currently scoped to <br /> implement the.final elements of the pilot study. <br /> Solvent migration investigation/groundwater clean up, City of West Sacramento, <br /> California - Implemented field investigation to evaluate the lateral and vertical extent of <br /> percholorethene released from a former underground storage tank. Investigation <br /> challenges included the presence of a multi-layered alluvial aquifer, daily tidal influenced <br /> groundwater levels, and seasonal river stage changes that cause the groundwater to <br /> change flow directions. Project also included the preparation of a report of waste <br /> discharge to allow the installation and operation of an enhanced biodegradation <br />
