11 September 2001 <br /> AGE-NC Project No. 98-0466 <br /> ' Page 7 of 24 <br /> ' summarized in Table 1,the vertical distribution of analytes in SCA2 are shown on Figure 6.A report <br /> of procedures and findings for the December 2000 investigation is in preparation. A boring in the <br /> immediate steam cleaning area is not proposed as the area has been assessed;however two proposed <br /> ' borings (PB5 and PB6) along the down-stream reach of the western ditch are proposed to assess <br /> ground water for TPH, chromium, lead and zinc potentially released from the steam cleaning <br /> operation. The P135 boring can also be used to assess soil and ground water for contaminants <br /> ' potentially released from the saw filing room as discussed in Section 3.4.4. <br /> ' 3.2.3. Western Drainage Ditch <br /> AGE collected a total of six soil samples from the western ditch area during the site assessment of <br /> ' June 2000.TRPH was detected in all samples,but was particularly eleva ed in sample DS 1-2,which <br /> also had elevated concentrations of chromium, lead and zinc. ThE chromium concentration <br /> (663 mg/kg)exceeds the Preliminary Remediation Goal(PRG)for industrial soil of 450 milligrams <br /> ' per kilogram(mg/kg).The lead concentration(357 mg/kg)exceeds the California modified PRG of <br /> 130 mg/kg, but does not exceed the federal EPA PRGs for either residential or industrial soil. <br /> Although zinc concentrations are elevated in DSI-2 (1,730 mg/kg), the level does not exceed any <br /> ' PRG for the metal. A deeper sample could not be retrieved from hand-auger boring DSI, but the <br /> concentrations of each analyte decrease northward, where the concentrations also decrease with <br /> ' depth. Also, deeper soil samples from probe boring DPl, located nearby, did not contain elevated <br /> metals or TRPH concentrations. <br /> Analysis of two samples collected in the ditch area for pentachlorophenol and tetrachlorophenol <br /> showed no detectable concentrations.Contaminants detected in DS 1-2 were TRPH,chromium,lead <br /> and zinc. TRPH in DS 1-2 was characterized as motor oil. TRPH and lead concentrations dropped <br /> ' significantly from 2 feet bsg to 5 feet bsg in DS-2. Chromium and zinc were at background <br /> concentrations in DS2-5.Analytical results are summarized in Table 1.Figures 6 and 7 illustrate the <br /> extent of TRPH-and metals-impacted soil.Two borings(PB5 and PB6)are proposed to be advanced <br /> along the down-stream reach of the western ditch are proposed to asses ground water for TPH-all, <br /> chromium, lead and zinc potentially released from the steam cleaning perations. The PB5 boring <br /> can also be used to assess soil and ground water for contaminants poten ially released from the saw <br /> ' filing room as discussed in Section 3.4.4. <br /> ' 3.3. SEPTIC TANKS <br /> A total of 6 septic tanks have been identified on the subject property,of hich only two are currently <br /> ' active. The active septic systems are located on the north and east portio of the property(Figures 3 <br /> and 4),one east of the existing maintenance building,the other west of the Millwork Building. The <br /> inactive septic tanks are on the south portion of the site (Figure 3), one east of the former Cover <br /> ' Advanced GeoEnvironmental,Inc. <br />
