Appendix C: Previous Environmental Activities <br /> The Central Valley RWQCB agreed that MW-3 and MW-4 should be destroyed, provided that <br /> the results of one additional groundwater sampling event satisfied the monitoring well <br /> destruction criteria. The Central Valley RWQCB also recommended a final sampling event for <br /> MW-5. However, SAIC was allowed to proceed with the destruction of MW-5 without <br /> additional sampling and analysis because continued access to the well for this purpose was <br /> denied by Western Farm Service, and because the well was unaffected by crude oil from the <br /> former OVP or TAOC pipelines.13 <br /> SAIC ANNUAL 2009 GROUNDWATER MONITORING AND SAMPLING 14 <br /> Annual groundwater monitoring and sampling was performed on February 11, 2009. The <br /> oleophilic sock in well MW-1 was replaced because it exhibited separate-phase oil (SPO) <br /> staining. Staining was not observed on the oleophilic sock in MW-2, and therefore the sock did <br /> not require replacement. SPO has been observed in MW-1 and MW-2 since 1999, with a total of <br /> 0.5 gallon removed from these wells as of the 2009 sampling event. <br /> The groundwater sample from MW-3 had detections of TPHd and chrysene above ESLs or <br /> WQOs. A duplicate sample from MW-3 also reported concentrations of benzo(a)anthracene, <br /> chrysene, and pyrene above ESLs or WQOs. <br /> SAIC 2008-2009 MONITORING WELL DESTRUCTION AND SOIL AND <br /> GROUNDWATER INVESTIGATION15 <br /> SAIC completed MW-4 and MW-5 well destruction activities on August 7 and 8, 2008. In <br /> addition, SAIC advanced a total of 27 borings in three separate mobilizations(August 2008, <br /> November 2008, and March 2009)to delineate the extent of affected soil and groundwater at the <br /> site. The borings were advanced to total depths ranging from 10 to 88 feet bgs. <br /> Soil analytical results for TPHc exceeded EPA Regional Screening Levels (RSLs)16 and/or ESLs <br /> in borings SB-18, SB-20 through SB-26, SB-28, SB-29, and SB-34 with concentrations ranging <br /> from 540 mg/kg to 26,000 mg/kg. BTEX concentrations in excess of screening levels were <br /> detected in SB-21. PAHs were detected in excess of screening levels in 18 of the 27 borings. <br /> Groundwater samples were not collected from SB-20, SB-21, SB-28, SB-34, SB-38 through <br /> SB-41, and SB-43 due to the presence of SPO. TPHd were detected in excess of WQO and/or <br /> ESL screening levels in the groundwater samples from SB-18, SB-19, SB-22 through SB-25, <br /> SB-29, and SB-42 with concentrations ranging from 110 gg/L to 130,000 gg/L. PAHs were <br /> detected above screening levels in five of 16 groundwater sampling locations. BTEX were not <br /> detected above screening levels. <br /> 13.RWQCB,2007.
