apparently not an objective of this phase of the investigation. It appears the consultant <br /> intends to evaluate the hydraulic characteristics of the entire site and to identify the <br /> potential pathways for off-site migration, both surface and ground water pathways, rather <br /> than characterizing the source areas and determining plume boundaries. However, <br /> depending upon the outcome of this phase of the investigation, additional source <br /> identification and plume delineation tasks may be required. <br /> The Navy recognizes that additional work may be required after completion of the <br /> interim site investigation in order to complete the RI/FS process. <br /> 5) The results of the underground tank program should be discussed in this report, (especially <br /> Site SB), including each sites potential to contaminate ground water). <br /> The Navy underground storage tank (UST) program and Installation Restoration Program <br /> (IRP) are separate programs. However, data from the UST program pertinent to interpretation of <br /> the hydrogeology will be used in the interim site investigation. <br /> 6) Nearby private wells should be sampled and analyzed for the chemicals of concern. <br /> The Navy intends to assess the potential for off-site migration of contaminants through <br /> ground water before initiating an off-site well sampling program. <br /> 7) The surface water sampling program consists of a monthly sampling of the pump station <br /> discharge for VOCs for 6 months, and VOC sampling of five surface water locations four <br /> times for VOCs, twice during the wet season and twice during the dry season. Also, the <br /> surface water program will include continuous flow monitoring of the pump station <br /> discharge and monthly surface water level measurements at the five surface water <br /> locations. The surface water locations include two internal drainage sample stations (one <br /> associated with the landfill area and one with the fire fighting area), one duck pond <br /> station, and two stations in Burns Cutoff, downstream from the pumping station discharge <br /> point. <br /> I recommend that (1) an additional upstream sampling station be located on Burns Cutoff, <br /> upstream of the pumping station discharge to Burns Cutoff, (l) that the chemical analyses <br /> also include BTXE, inorganics (sulfate and chloride), specific conductance, TDS, metals, <br /> and pesticides, and (3) that the pumping station discharge samples, where possible, be 24- <br /> hour flow weighted composited samples. <br /> 8 <br />
