Soil samples were collected beneath each tank and the <br /> associated piping Soil samples collected from beneath two of the tanks contained moderate to high <br /> levels of ethylbenzene and xylenes (1 2 to 70 parts per million [ppm]) as well as total petroleum <br /> hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPHg), at 470-830 ppm <br /> Due to the presence of elevated concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons in the tank pit soil samples, <br /> further investigation was required by San Joaquin County Public Health Services, Environmental <br /> Health Division (PHS/EHD) <br /> In a two-phased approach beginning on November 1, 1990, RESNA personnel advanced six soil <br /> borings (MW1-MW6) to depths ranging from 27 to 30 feet below grade at the project site to <br /> accomplish the following 1) define the lateral and vertical extent of hydrocarbon impacted soils, 2) <br /> determine soil stratigraphy, and 3) install groundwater monitoring wells within the uppermost aquifer <br /> in order to assess groundwater quality The boring/well locations are plotted on Figure 2 Field <br /> methodology and analytical results are discussed in detail in RESNA's Interim Problem Assessment <br /> Report, dated January 13, 1992 <br /> The site's station building and garage were demolished in December 1994, in part to facilitate the <br /> removal of hydrocarbon contaminated soil which is suspected beneath the station building The <br /> demolition of the station building was requested in PHS/EHD correspondence dated July 7, 1994 A <br /> • required demolition asbestos survey conducted previously on the station building, determined the <br /> 1500811QUARTLYl3QR-1995 DOC 1 <br /> 1260 Graphics Drive Modesto, CA 95351-1502 (209)579-2221 Fax(209)579-2225 <br /> Engineering Consulting Remediation Construction <br />
