C10 <br /> CORNERSTONE • <br /> `: EARTH GROUP <br /> toward the northwest; however, flow toward the west and southwest have also been reported <br /> likely due to ground water well pumping activities. The proposed boring locations are <br /> summarized below and are shown on the attached site plan. <br /> • Adjacent to the former metal buildings and railroad spur line <br /> • Adjacent to the septic tank <br /> • Low-lying area adjacent to the sewer pump station and ramp leading to the former tailing <br /> ponds <br /> • End of the dirt ramp in the tailings pond/pile area <br /> • Along the former on-Site historic railroad spur and in the assumed down-gradient ground <br /> water flow direction relative to the former manufacturing buildings <br /> • Near the former railroad spur northwest of the tailings pond/pile area <br /> • Central area of the former tailings pond/pile area <br /> Based on the December 2004 Site geotechnical investigation, ground water was encountered at <br /> an approximate depth of 21 feet. To assist in locating the depth of the shallow water bearing <br /> zone, soil samples will be continuously collected and logged from three selected borings drilled <br /> at the Site. If ground water is encountered, slotted PVC screen will be lowered into the three <br /> boreholes to attempt to collect a grab ground water sample. At the remaining four boring <br /> locations, a hydropunch sampler will be used to attempt to collect a grab ground water sample. <br /> If readily collectable, seven grab ground water samples will be analyzed at a state-certified <br /> laboratory for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) (EPA Test Method 8260B), dissolved <br /> California Assessment Manual (CAM) 17 metals (EPA Test Methods 6010B and 7471 A), semi- <br /> volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) (EPA Test Method 8270), diesel and oil-range petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons (EPA Test Method 8015B), and pH. The ground water samples for metals <br /> analyses will be collected in unpreserved containers and will be filtered and preserved in the <br /> laboratory prior to analyses. <br /> We will request the laboratory perform all analyses on a standard one week laboratory <br /> response; however actual laboratory response may vary due to backlog. <br /> Investigative Derived Waste <br /> Soil cuttings and cleaning rinsate will be stored on-site in labeled drums. After receipt of <br /> analytical data, we will coordinate with McShane Corporation for appropriate off-site disposal of <br /> the containers. <br /> Report <br /> We will prepare a soil and ground water quality evaluation report presenting the results of the <br /> study, our conclusions, and recommendations. The report will include a vicinity map, site plan, <br /> and copies of the analytical data sheets and chain of custody documentation. The conclusions <br /> and recommendations presented in the report will be based on our interpretation of the readily <br /> available information reviewed and the conditions observed. <br /> 199-1-2 Page 2 11/28/2007 <br />
