02 May 2005 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 01-0827 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br /> AGE had proposed to augment the IAS system with a low-flow ozone generator in Ozone Sparging <br /> and Additional Monitoring Well Installation Work Plan, dated 07 October 2002. An EHL letter <br /> dated 03 January 2003,requested procedures for evaluating the effectiveness of the operation ofthe <br /> in-situ air sparing(IAS)system with a low-flow,ozone generator.Essentially what benchmarks for <br /> proposed remediation system would be acceptable. The acceptable performance of the ozone <br /> sparging system and the specific modification to the system; including the installation of a micro- <br /> diffuser at the former UST area.Operation ofthe ozone injection system has been ongoing since July <br /> 2003, resulting in a general downward concentration trend, with an increase in dissolved <br /> concentrations after an additional sparge-diffuser OZ-1 installation and operation. <br /> AGE prepared Site Conceptual Model,dated 25 February 2005 was prepared at the verbal request <br /> ofthe EHD during a meeting on 20 January 2005.The lateral extent of dissolved hydrocarbons north <br /> and northeast of the former UST release area may not be fully defined and requires additional <br /> shallow assessment of the impacted soil and impacted ground water limits. <br /> 2.1. REGIONAL GEOLOGIC/HYDROGEOLOGIC SETTING <br /> The site is situated within the Great Valley Geomorphic,Province of California, a large,elongate, <br /> northwest trending, asymmetric structural trough. The Great Valley Province has been filled with <br /> thick sequences of sediment ranging in age from Jurassic to Recent, creating a nearly flat- lying <br /> alluvial plain, extending from the Tehachapi Mountains in the south to the Klamath Mountains in <br /> the north.The western and eastern boundaries ofthis province are comprised ofthe California Coast <br /> Range and the Sierra Nevada,respectively.Rocks composing the basement complex ofthe province <br /> have not been completely defined but are believed to be metamorphic and igneous in origin. The <br /> northern and southern portions ofthe Great Valley Province have been designated the Sacramento <br /> and San Joaquin Valleys, respectively. <br /> Based on the General Soil Map from the San Joaquin County Soil Survey,published by the United <br /> States Department ofAgriculture Soil Conservation Service in 1992,the soil type within the site area <br /> is poorly drained Jacktone clay, in large areas covered by urban land. Jacktone soils are located <br /> within basins, and generally form in alluvium derived from mixed rock sources. The Modesto, <br /> Riverbank, Turlock Lake Formations and overlying recent alluvium are the principal sources of <br /> domestic ground water in the 13,500-square-mile San Joaquin Valley Ground Water Basin(Basin <br /> 5-22). This basin is drained primarily by the San Joaquin River. The closest surface water feature <br /> to the site is Mormon Slough located approximately 500 feet west of the site. <br /> A&wneedGeoEnvironrnental,Inc, <br />
