Work Plan for Phase II Subsurface Investigation 54 North Cluff Avenue Lodi, California 95240 Partner Project Number 17-189718.1 June 22, 2017 Page I 2 Objective The main objective of the project will be to investigate the potential impact of petroleum hydrocarbons and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to soil as a consequence of a release or releases from the historical on- site operations. To investigate the identified features, Partner will conduct a Phase II Subsurface Investigation. The investigation scope will include the advancement of six borings (B1 through B6) to facilitate the collection and analysis of soil samples. Refer to the attached site plan for proposed boring locations. If soil impacts are observed/recorded, the investigation scope may not be sufficient to evaluate the extent and magnitude of subsurface impacts and additional laboratory analysis and/or sampling beyond the proposed scope may be required. Scope Sampling procedures will generally conform to the requirements of the San Joaquin County Environmental Health Department (SJCEHD), the SWRCB, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). A state-certified laboratory will analyze the samples and the project will be performed under the responsible charge of a qualified Partner representative. Laboratory results will be compared with San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Environmental Screening Levels (ESLs). Partner will perform the following tasks for the Phase II Subsurface Investigation: Prepare a site-specific health and safety plan; Notify Underground Service Alert (USA) a minimum of 48 hours prior to drilling activities to clear public utilities; Secure the necessary drilling permit from the SJCEHD. Permit acquisition will involve submitting a completed application and site plan to the SJCEHD for review and approval and remitting the necessary fees. The turnaround time of the SJCEHD to issue the permit is expected to be no more than two weeks; Notify the applicable regulatory agencies a minimum of 48 hours prior to drilling/backfilling activities; Clear boreholes of utility lines through a geophysical survey. Boring placement will be modified as necessary based on the geophysical survey results to avoid damaging underground features. Advance a total of six borings throughout the subject property (with a bias towards areas of potential releases) to a terminal depth of 15 feet bgs, collecting soil samples at two feet bgs and in five-foot intervals from five feet bgs to the terminal depth. The borings will be advanced in the vicinity of the hazardous materials storage, diversion drain, two oil/water separators, and shop sink; Soil samples will be collected using a two-foot long by 1.5-inch diameter sampler with a two-foot long acetate liner and sampling point. The sampler will be advanced by a direct-push drill rig using four- foot long (three-foot long for the limited-access rig) by 1.25-inch diameter hollow rods with the inner rods in place. At approximately one foot above the desired sampling depth, an inner rod was removed and the sampler was advanced to the desired sampling depth to allow undisturbed soil to enter the sampling liner. The sampler will be retrieved from the subsurface and the soil-filled liner will be removed; Each acetate liner will be cut using a hacksaw or pipe-cutter. The liner will be capped on either end with Teflon tape and plastic caps. The capped liners will be labeled for identification and stored in an iced cooler. The soil in the liner will be visually inspected for discoloration, monitored for odors, PARTNER
