[AEC] to estimate the extent of hydrocarbon impacted soil resulting from the unauthorized discharge of gasoline, identified following the removal of four [4] underground storage tank lUST] and associated plumbing. The UST was located at the Chico and the Man Service Station, 3t5t East 18th Street, Bakersfield, California [Appendix A, Figure t]. The project was performed on December 22, 1993, in accordance with the work plan previously designed and submitted by AEC and appraved by the Kern County Environmental Health Department [KCEHD]. This investigation was authorized by Mr. Gene Bolton of Pro-Tech Specialties, representing Mrs. Nelsien the property owner, and conducted under the direct supervision of Ms. Flora Darling, Hazardous Materials Specialists, Kern County Environmental Health Department [KCEHD}. The subject site is located In east Bakersfield. The general area Is comprised of light Industries, retail stores and related Service businesses. Contained in this report is background information regarding existing site characteristics, regional and local hydrogeological profiles, and the project history. Also included in the following sections are the objectives and scope of investigation, detailed investigative procedures, and subsequent findings. Finally, AEC provides an evaluation of said findings and makes related conclusions and recommendations. The report appendices contain project maps and figures [Appendix A), soil baring logs [Appendix BI, laboratory reports/chain-of-custody documents [Appendix C], and cross- sections depicting the horizontal and vertical extent of hydracarbon migration [Appendix D). 2.0 BACKGROUND On April 21, 1989 Valley Tree Construction supervised the excavation, removal, and disposal of four (4] gasoline UST's from the subject site.

The general area is comprised of light industry and related services. The subject site is at an average elevation of 385-feet above mean sea level with minimal topographic relief. The property is presently a vacant lot. Project: AEC 94C-t444 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 * BAKERSFIELD CA93313 805/831-1646 - FAXS05/831-1771 Environmental Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 3.2 Regional Geology The subject property is located in the Southern San Joaquin Valley [Valley] which is a part of the Central Valley of California. The Valley forms the southern ~o-thlrds of the Central Valley and is characterized as a broad structural trough. It is bordered on the east by the Sierra Nevada Range and on the west by the Coast Range [Diablo and Temblor Mountains]. The Valley extends 250 miles southeastward from the confluence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers to the Tehachapi and San Emigdio Mountains. The width ranges from 25 miles wide near the Kern River to approximately 55 miles wide near the Kings River, with an approximate average width of 40 miles. Geology of the southern Valley consists of a Pre-Tertiary basement complex overlain by marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age. These rocks are composed of consolidated sandstones, siltstones and shales which thicken from northeast to southwest. The Valley was once an inland sea of comparatively shallow depth that continued to subside due to the ever increasing load of sediments transported and deposited from higher elevations. These deposits consist of gravels, sands, silts and clays. The majority of the groundwater pumped from the Valley floor occurs within these relatively unconsolidated continental deposits. 3.3 Local Geology The investigated property is located on alluvial deposits, created from sediments transported and deposited by local streams, and during flood stages of the Kern River. The site is situated in a Iow to moderate energy flood plain environment consisting of weakly consolidated to unconsolidated, poorly bedded sands and silts. 3.4 Hydrogeology Ground and surface water in the central Bakersfield area is regulated by the Kern County Water Agency. According to the Kern County Water Agency "Water Supply Report-1990", depth to groundwater in unconfined and equivalent wells is estimated at 180-feet below grade level [BGL] at the site. No perched water bearing zones are reported in the area. 4.0 ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES 4. t Decontamination Procedures Prior to initiating drilling operations, the augers and associated drilling equipment were thoroughly cleaned using a high pressure steam cleaner. In addition, the soil sampler and hand auger were washed in an Alconox solution and double rinsed in clean, deionized water prior to initial use and between each sampling interval to minimize the possibility of cross-contamination between samples.

The borings were advanced using a truck-mounted Mobile B-61 drill rig, equipped with 8-Inch O.D. continuous flight, hollow-stem augers. Borings I, 2, and 4 were drilled to a total depth of 60 feet BGL and boring 3 was drilled to 30 feet BGL. The borings were positioned to evaluate the vertical and horizontal extent of the hydrocarbon migration. Soil samples were collected at Intervals of 5-feet in all borings commencing at 10-feet BGL. Samples were obtained by driving a thin-walled steel sampler, equipped with three {3) 2.5-inch x 6-inch brass sleeves, a minimum of 18-inches into previously undisturbed soil. The sampler was driven ahead of the augers using a 140- lb. slide hammer with a 30-inch vertical fall. Following each sample drive, the sampler was withdrawn from the borehole and the three [3) brass sleeves were removed. The bottom sleeve was retained for laboratory analysis and prepared by placing teflon tape and plastic caps over each end, then securing the caps with duct tape. The samples were labeled, placed in sealable plastic bags, recorded on a Chain-of-Custody document and placed in an ice chest cooled with blue ice. Soil exposed at each end of the center brass sleeve, and the cuttings, were examined for lithological purposes and for any obvious evidence of hydrocarbons. Lithologic descriptions (Appendix BI were logged according to the Unified Soils Classification System [USC, S]. Chain-of-Custody protocol was strictly followed to ensure sample integrity and traceability. Upon completion of the above described procedures, the borings were abandoned with hydrated bentonite followed by a cement slurry to grade. 5.0 ANALYTICAL RESULTS Selected soil samples were submitted to Associated Laboratories, Inc., of Orange, California and analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline ['rPH-g] and volatile aromatics [BTXE] using CA DHS and EPA 8020 method, respectively. The analytical results are presented in Table 2 and the laboratory reports and Chain-of Custody are provided in Appendix C.

Detection Limit 0.005 0.005 6.0 FEASIBILIIY STUDY 6.'1 Soils The soil profile at the site consists of silty sands, "clean" sands, and paorly sorted sands to a total drilled depth of 60 feet BGL. The silty sands [SM-ML) are commonly tan-brown, slightly to very compact, commonly friable, and slightly to moderately moist. The "clean" sands [SW) are olive gray-buff, moderately dense, unconsolidated, and slightly moist. The poorly sorted sands [SP-GC) commonly consist of olive-gray to white, moderately to very dense, unconsolidated to very consalidated, and slightly maist. The sediments are typical of Iow to moderate energy fluvial deposits subjected to periodic reworking during flood stages. The strata were loosely compacted due to the increasing weight of the overlying sediments. 6.2 Extent of Hydrocarbon Migration Analytical results indicate that significant hydrocarbon concentrations extend to a depth of 45 feet BGL with the highest concentration, '14,000 ppm, being detected in B-2 at 40 feet BGL. Hydrocarbon levels below '100 ppm were detected in B-'1 and B-4, and below Project: AEC 94C-14t t 5 ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND · 4400 ASHE ROAD, #206 · E~AKERSFIELD.

Plume dimensions are approximately 60 feet deep by 60 feet wide and forms an nonsymetric, elongated, spheroid shape that occupies approximately 6,200 cubic yards. The highest concentrations of hydracarbans are contained within about 785 cubic yards. 6.3 Remediation Altematives Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. recommends the following three (3] remediation alternatives for treatment of the hydrocarbon contamination located at the subject facility: I) No-action alternative; 2] Implementation of an in-situ vapor extraction system; and 3) In-situ bioremediation of the impacted soil. Allemcrlive The no-action remediation alternative invOlves leaving in place, the soils that exhibit hydrocarbon levels in excess of RAL, then capping the contaminated area with a relatively impermeable layer of asphalt or concrete. This alternative would require approval of the Kern County Environmental Health Department. To be eligible for this remediation alternative, the site location must satisfy specific parameters associated with depth to groundwater, site geology and contaminant concentration levels. It is unlikely that this facility will be eligible for this alternative in that the site does not satisfy the following criteria based upon the "Leaching Potential Analysis- gasoline" as outlined in the LUFT Manual: (a) Groundwater depth is estimated at 180-feet BGL [I0 points] [bi No discernible fractures [I0 points) [c) Average annual precipitation is less the 10-inches (5.72) (10 points] Id] No available man-made conduits [10 points] (e) Coarse grained soil ( 9 points] There is a total of 49 points scored which correlates to the following maximum allowable levels of gasoline-range hydrocarbans that can be left in place; 1,000-ppm and 1/50/50/50 for TPH and BTXE constituents, respectively. The hydrocarbon concentration levels found at the subject site exceed these limits to a depth of 45-feet in soil boring Alternative ~2: The vapor extraction alternative involves the withdrawal of the volatile organic constituents from the soil matrix via a vacuum pump manifolded to extraction wells, and the subsequent destruction or collection of hydrocarbons using a regenerative thermal oxidizer or carbon adsorption. This system operates on the principle that volatile organic compounds have relatively high vapor pressures and will volatilize at ambient soil temperatures provided a reduction in pressure is applied. The treatment Project: AEC 94C-t411 6 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 " BAKERSFIELD. CA 93313 805/831-1646 ,, FAX 805/831-1771 Environmental Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. at the subject site would also involve injecting air into the perimeter wells to enhance the volatilization of the diesel-range hydrocarbons while oxygenating the soil and promoting natural bio-degradation. Vapor extraction is most effective and efficient in coarse grained soils (SP), alihough soils classified as ML [silt} also have the capability of being treated by this method. Because hydrocarbon vapors are generated by the removal process, an air emission recovery system will be required by the local Air Pollution Control District [APCD] if the hydrocarbon concentrations exceed allowable emission levels. The soil venting system is also most effective on hydrocarbons with high vapor pressures. The advantages of this treatment alternative include the ability to treat the soil in-situ, ease of installation and manifolding of the extraction wells, minimal maintenance, relatively rapid reduction In hydrocarbon concentrations, and minimal disruption of normal site operations. Alternative ~3: Bioremediation involves treating the' impacted soil either aboveground or in-situ. The aboveground treatment alternative involves excavation and surface treatment of the affected soil and is more time-efficient and effective than the in- situ method. However, this discussion will center on the in-situ method because the depth of gasoline impacted soil and the proximity to the warehouse negates an excavation alternative. The in-situ treatment method involves introduction of microbes and nutrients to the contaminated soil via injection wells screened across the affected intervals. A mixing tank is placed above the well and hydrostatic head pressure allows continual percolation of biologically active fluids through the contaminated zones. The soil type is primarily a sand or silty sand and would be receptive to an active biological treatment method. However, intervals of consolidated sand are also present, which could impede the lateral migration of the microbes. To offset this effect it would be necessary to install a tight injection well pattern, which increases the treatment cost per cubic yard. 7.0 CONCLUSIONS On the basis of our investigation, AEC presents the following conclusions: a} The soil profile at the subiect site generally consists of interbedded sands and silts to the total drilled depth of 60 feet. b) The analytical results indicate elevated levels of TPH-g and BTXE to a total depth af 40 feet in B-2 and B-3. TPH-g and BTXE levels are below the PAL far gasoline in soil in all other samples analyzed. c] The vertical extent of the gasoline migration appears to extend to a depth of 60 feet BGL. The lateral extent of the plume is about 60 feet. The approximate volume of the plume is 6,280 cUbic yards and extends underneath a large portion of the site and probably the adjoining streets.

Remediation options for soils containing'gasoline include ex-sim and in-sim methods. Soil excavation (ex-sim treatment) is effective for most soils and petroleum hydrocarbons. Excavation is generally limited to depths of 25 feet and can be further limited by site development and site operations. Extent of attainable cleanup is usually more predictable and more likely to be complete. Remediation usually requires shorter time periods and is time- dependant on the type of surface treatment selected (i.e. off-haul, recycling, or controlled on-site aeration). Environmental impact and site disturbance can be substantial, including risk of chemical exposure and physical contact with chemicals. The potential for damage to nearby structures and other site features can be high. Costs for ex-sim treatment of hydrocarbons in soil deeper than 25 feet are typically high and can approach one million dollars depending on site-specific conditions. In-sim remedial methods include bioremediation, vapor extraction, and bioventing. In-sim methods are generally effective in permeable soil types (i.e. sand and sand silt mixtures) and are not limited by depth or by site development. Site operations are usually only minimally interrupted by system installation and maintenance tasks. Extent of attainable cleanup often varies depending on soil types and type of contaminant and is generally not entirely complete. In-sim methods require long periods of time (on the order of several years) in comparison to ex- situ treatment. Environmenfial impact and site disturbance are usually minimal. Short-term liabilities are minimal. Long-term liabilities may result from incomplete reduction. Costs associated with in-sim methods are generally substantially less in comparison to ex-situ methods.

Information concerning the site was obtained from our review of the Environmental Assessment Report prepared by Advanced Environmental Concepts dated January 1994. The site is presently a vacant, commercially zoned, parcel at the southwest corner of East 18th and Sonora Streets. Gasoline product originating from leaking USTs has migrated to an approximate depth of 45 feet and extends laterally for a distance of 20 to 30 feet from the source point. Known maximum concentration of gasoline in soil is 14,000 ppm. Maximum known benzene concentration is 120 ppm. Gasoline migration reportedly extends in an eastwardly direction into the right-of-way of Sonora Street. Subsurface soils are granular ranging from poorly graded sand to silty sand. Groundwater is reported to occur at. a depth of 200 feet in the vicinity of the site. Two options for soil remediation are presented for your consideration. OPTION A - BIOVENTING Fuels such as gasoline are well-suited for Bioventing treatment. Bioventing biodegrades petroleum hydrocarbons through the stimulation of indigenous bacteria which are present in nearly all natural soils. To increase hydrocarbon degradation rates, environmental conditions within the soil are optimized by introducing oxygen into the impacted soil zone. Through their metabolic processes,, bacteria works to reduce hydrocarbon levels in soil. By limiting air emissions through reinjecting0into the soil and limiting the clean air influx rate to the minimum flow needed to promote biodegradation, the need for air emission control is avoided or greatly reduced.

A Summary of Estimated Fees is attached. OPTION B - VAPOR EXTRACTION Vapor Extraction involves the removal of gasoline vapors from subsurface soils by mechanically drawing or venting air through the soil matrix. Vapors brought to the surface may be treated through a thermal oxidizer eguipped with a catalytic module. Gasoline concentrations in soil are reduced to carbon dioxide which can be safely emitted to the atmosphere. This alternative would require the construction of extraction wells and the installation of a transportable vapor extraction and thermal oxidation unit.

Dear Ms. Darling, Please find below the additional information you requested regarding the remedial action activities at the above stated facility. The information will be listed in the order that it was requested in the KCEHSD letter dated August 30, 1994. Radius of influence can be calculated using the following parameters: t. flow rate 2. permeability 3. screened interval 4. change in pressure 5. viscosity of gas 6. temperature of gas 7. compressibility of gas 8. well radius When these parameters are held constant and solved for effective radius of influence for a rar~ge of permealoi!ity values the result is radius of influence distances from 19 to '140 feet. These results are presented in Table '1.

CA 93313 805/831-1646 * FAX 805/831-1771 Ms. Flora Darling Chico & The Man Page Two Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. AEC has measured influence distances in excess of 55 feet at other sites in Kern County that have soil types similar to those found at the Chico & The Man site. AEC estimates that influence radii at the subject site would be between 40 and 90 feet. Once vadose wells are installed at the site the communication between wells will be measured and placement and/or addition of subsequent wells adjusted accordingly. The physical measuring of well communication will be accomplished by inducing a vacuum on the vapor extraction well network using a 250 cfm vacuum pump. The vacuum will be isolated on one individual well while measuring the effect on another well using a Merium U-Tube Manometer. The estimated time required to achieve the cleanup goals of 4/50/50/50 and 'I000 ppm for BTEX and TPH-g, respectively is one year, The method AEC proposes to use to demonstrate that these goals have been achieved is conformation soil borings. Location, number and sample points will be submitted to KCEHSD for approval prior to commencement of the activities. The total impacted area at the subject site is approximately 37,073 cubic feet. This area can be divided into two distinct sub-areas, that less than 4000 ppm and that greater than 4000ppm with approximate volumes of 24,980 and 42,093 cubic feet, respectively. To determine the gallons of product present in the impacted area average hydrocarbon concentrations of 6400 ppm for the greater than 4000 ppm area and 400 ppm for the less than 4000 ppm area were used. These average concentrations result in estimated gasoline quantities of 4450 and 200 gallons in the greater than 4000 ppm and less than 4000 ppm plume areas, respectively. Monitoring of the cleanup activities will be performed by collecting influent and effluent air samples from the vapor extraction machine and submitting them to a laboratory for analysis of TPH-g and BTEX. The frequency of this sampling will be weekly for the first month and monthly after that. In addition to the air sampling the influent will be measured with a Gastech GT302 LEL meter for hydrocarbon and oxygen levels. This testing method will be performed daily for the first two weeks then weekly there after. If you should require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact our office at 834- 4646.

Inc.. WashingtOn. D.C. 20037 10M-a13X/~O/IO+.SO LEGAL DEVELOPMENTS Hazardous Waste ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANUP COST8 'COVERED DAMAGES,' SUPREME COURT RULES Government-ordered environmental cleanup costs are damages covered by comprehensive general ii. ability insurance policies, the California Supreme Court ruled Nov. 15 in a unanimous pro-policyholder decision (AIU Ins. Co. v. Super/or CouFt, Calif SupO. No. S012525, 11/15/90). Ruling that insurance policy language should be construed according to '*the mutual intentions of the parties*' and its '~)lain and ordinary" meaning, resolv* lng ambiguiti*es in faVor of coverage, the supreme court overturned an appeals court decision in favor of insurance carriers (AIU Ins. Co. v. $uper~ Court of Sant~ Clara County, Caiif CtApp Sixth AppDiv, No. H005467). Attorneys for policyholders hailed the ruling as further evidence of a "pro-peiicyholder trend" across the county, but attorneys for insurance carriers pre- dicted it would result in more litigation, not necessar- ily more victories for policyholders. At issue is coverage sought by FMC Corp., a ma- chinery and chemicals manufacturer, from about 170 of its insurance companies for complying with guvern- merit cleanup orders. FMC is the defendant in actions commenced by federal and state governments under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Com- pensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and similar state laws, in which the governments claim that FMC must elect to either pay the governments' cleanup costs or perform its own investigation and cleanup. Carriers' Defense Arguments Fail '~sis decision is significant nationally because this is California, a key state," FMC General Counsel Bowon H. Tucker told BNA Nov. 16. "The California court clearly confirmed that general liability policies provide coverage for the costs of waste site cleanup. The other important aspect of the decision is that the court rejected one of the carrier's key arguments that large companies--because of their size and sophistica- Uon--should not have the benefit of the same kind of policy interpretation as the normal policyholder." But carrier attorneys disputed that interpretation. "I don't think the court rejected that argument at all," said carrier attorney Barry Ostrager of the New York firm of Simpson, Thacber & Bartlett. "What the court was clearly saying was that these cases each have to be resolved on the facts." "l'he supreme court ruled exactly the same way that the appeals court ruled two .years ago in the Aero.~et case and settled the question of liability permanently in California," attorney Moses Lasky told BNA Nov. 16. Lasky, a partner in the San Francis* co-based law firm of Lasky, Haas, CoMer & Munter, represented Aerojet General Corp. in a similar cover* age dispute heard by a California appellate court which ruled for policyholders on the damages issue two years ago (Aero, et General Corp. v. Superior Court o.f San Mateo County, Callf CtApp First App- Div, 209 CalApp. 3d 973). "Since California pronounce- ments tend to affect the rest of the country, this will probably have farther reaching effects," he said. Insurers argue that the court's decision will affect all insured companies, whether or not they bare a waste problem. "Our point has been that these tempe* hies are polluters--polluters who are endangering the environment--and they should be responsible for cleaning up the mess they make," said Bill Packer, spokesman for the Association of California Insurance Companies. "By asking insurance companies to pay, you are asking the consumers--the poUcyholders--to pay for the cleanup.'* High Court Rejects 'AeroJet' Definition In interpreting policy provisions, the court ruled in its 60-page opinion that if FMC is held Uable in the underlying third-party suits, it will be "legally obUgat- ed" to pay for whatever reUef the courts order. The high court rejected the carriers' argument that in making such an award, the courts would be exercising "equitable" rather than "legal'* authority. The word "damages'* in comprehensive general U- ability (CGL) policies should be given its "plain and ordinary" meaning, the court said. It rejected the narrow, technical definition of "damages" used by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit in the pro- carrier decision, Maryland Casualty Co. v. Armco Inc. (822 F2d 1348, cert. denied 484 US 1008). The court also rejected the broad definition of dam- ages applied by the California Court of Appeals, First District, in the pro-policyholder Aerojet decision. The Aero, et court defined, damages to include "any sum expended under sanction of law." The Aero, et court said, "The insured may reasonably expect coverage for any sums expended, either at law or equity, as a result of the insured's causing property damage to another." The supreme court denied review of Aero- jet in August. The case is currently pending before the trial court on other issues. Although ruling that the statutory and dictionary definitions of damages should be used, such a defini- tion will not be appUed "inflexibly," the court said, adding that ambiguiUes would be construed to protect the "reasonable expectaUons of the insured."

The general area is comprised of light industry and related services. The subject site is at an average elevation of 385-feet above mean sea level with minimal topographic relief. The property is presently a vacant lot. Project: AEC 94C-t4tt 2 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 * BAKERSFIELD. CA 93313 805/831-1646 ,, FAX 805/831-1771 Environmental Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 3.2 Regional Geology The subject property is located in the Southern San Joaquin Valley (Valley) which is a part of the Central Valley of California. The Valley forms the southern twa-thirds of the Central Valley and is characterized as a broad structural trough. It is bordered on the east by the Sierra Nevada Range and on the west by the Coast Range (Diablo and Temblor Mountains). The Valley extends 250 miles southeastward from the confluence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers to the Tehachapi and San Emigdio Mountains. The width ranges from 25 miles wide near the Kern River to approximately 55 miles wide near'the Kings River, with an approximate average width of 40 miles. Geology of the southern Valley consists of a Pre-Tertiary basement complex overlain by marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age. These rocks are composed of consolidated sandstones, siltstones and shales which thicken from northeast to southwest. The Valley was once an inland sea of comparatively shallow depth that continued to subside due to the ever increasing load of sediments transported and deposited from higher elevations. These deposits consist of gravels, sands, silts and clays. The majority of the groundwater pumped from the Valley floor occurs within these relatively unconsolidated continental deposits. 3.3 Local Geology The investigated property is located on alluvial deposits, created from sediments transported and deposited by local streams, and during flood stages of the Kern River. The site is situated in a Iowlto moderate energy flood plain environment consisting of weakly consolidated to unc~bnsolidated, poorly bedded sands and silts. 3.4 Hydrogeology Ground and surface water in the central Bakersfield area is regulated by the Kern County Water Agency. According to the Kern County Water Agency "Water Supply Report-1990", depth to groundwater in unconfined and equivalent wells is estimated at 180-feet below grade level [BGL] at the site. No perched water bearing zones are reported in the area. 4.0 ASSE~MENT ACTIVITIES 4. t Decontaminalion Procedures Prior to initiating drilling operations, the augers and associated drilling equipment were thoroughly cleaned using a high pressure steam cleaner. In addition, the soil sampler and hand auger were washed in an Alconax solution and double rinsed in clean, deionized water prior to initial use and between each sampling interval to minimize the possibility of cross-contamination between samples.

Inc. 4.2 Soil Borings On December '12, '1994 four (4] soil berings [B-'l, B-2, B-3, and B-4] were drilled on the subject property. The borings were advanced using a truck-mounted Mobile B-6'1 drill rig, equipped with 8-inch O.D. continuous flight, hollow-stem augers. Borings '1, 2, and 4 were drilled to a total depth of 60 feet BGL and boring 3 was drilled to 30 feet BGL. The borings were positioned to evaluate the vertical and horizontal extent of the hydrocarbon migration. Soil samples were collected at intervals of 5-feet in all borings commencing at '10-feet BGL. Samples were obtained by driving a thin-walled steel sampler, equipped with three [3] 2.5-inch x 6-inch brass sleeves, a minimum of '18-inches into previously undisturbed soil. The sampler was driven ahead of the augers using a '140- lb. slide hammer with a 30-inch vertical fall. Following each sample drive, the sampler was withdrawn from the borehole and the three [3] brass sleeves were removed. The bottom sleeve was retained far laboratory analysis and prepared by placing teflon tape and plastic caps over each end, then securing the caps with duct tape. The samples were labeled, placed in sealable plastic bags, recorded on a Chain-of-Custody document and placed in an ice chest cooled with blue ice. Soil exposed at each end of the center brass sleeve, and the cuttings, were examined for lithological purposes and for any obvious evidence of hydrocarbons. Lithologic descriptions (Appendix BI were logged according to the Unified Soils Classification System [USCS]. Chain-of-Custody protocol was strictly followed to ensure sample integrity and traceability. Upon completion of the above described procedures, the borings were abandoned with hydrated bentonite followed by a cement slurry to grade. 5.0 ANALYTICAL RESULTS Selected soil samples were submitted to Associated Laboratories, Inc., of Orange, California and analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPH-g] and volatile aromatics [BTXE] using CA DHS and EPA 8020 method, respectively. The analytical results are presented in Table 2 and the laboratory reports and Chain-of Custody are provided in Appendix C.

The silty sands (SM-ML) are commonly tan-brown, slightly to very compact, commonly friable, and slightly to moderately moist. The "clean" sands (SW) are olive gray-buff, moderately dense, unconsolidated, and slightly moist. The poorly sorted sands (SP-GC] commonly consist of olive-gray to white, moderately to. very dense, unconsolidated to very consolidated, and slightly moist. The sediments are typical of Iow to moderate energy fluvial deposits subjected to periodic reworking during fload stages. The strata were loosely compacted due to the increasing weight of the overlying sediments. 6.2 Extent of Hydrocarbon Migration Analytical results indicate that significant hydrocarbon concentrations extend to a depth of 45 feet BGL with the highest concentration, t4,000 ppm, being detected in B-2 at 40 feet BGL. Hydrocarbon levels below 100 ppm were detected in B-I and B-4, and below Project: AEC 94C-t4t I 5 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD, #206 * BAKERSFIELD CA 93313 805/831-1646 * FAX 805/831-1771 Environmental Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 40 feet BGL in B-2. Plume dimensions are approximately 60 feet deep by 60 feet wide and forms an nonsymetric, elongated, spheroid shape that occupies approximately 6,200 cubic yards. The highest concentrations of hydrocarbons are contained within about 785 cubic yards. 6.3 Remediafion Alternatives Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. recommends the following three [3] remediation alternatives for treatment of the hydrocarbon contamination located at the subject facility: I ) No-action alternative; 2] Implementation of an in-situ vapor extraction system; and 3] In-situ bioremediation of the impacted soil. Alternative ~t: The no-action remediation alternative invOlves leaving in place, the soils that exhibit hydrocarbon levels in excess of RAL, then capping the contaminated area with a relatively impermeable layer of asphalt or concrete. This alternative would require approval of the Kern County Environmental Health Department. To be eligible for this remediation alternative, the site location must satisfy specific parameters associated with depth to groundwater, site geology and contaminant concentration levels. It is unlikely that this facility will be eligible for this alternative in that the site does not satisfy the following criteria based upon the "Leaching Potential Analysis- gasoline" as outlined in the LUFT Manual: (a] Groundwater depth is estimated at 180-feet BGL (t0 points) [b) No discernible fractures (I0 points) (c) Average annual precipitation is less the 10-inches (5.72) (10 points) (d) No available man-made conduits (I0 points) (e) Coarse grained soil ( 9 points] There is a total of 49 points scored which correlates to the following maximum allowable levels of gasoline-range hydrocarbons that can be left in place; 1,000-ppm and 1/50/50/50 for TPH and BTXE constituents, respectively. The hydrocarbon concentration levels found at the subject site exceed these limits to a depth of 45-feet in soil boring B-t. Alternative ~2: The vapor extraction alternative involves the withdrawal of the volatile organic constituents from the soil matrix via a vacuum pump manifolded to extraction wells, and the subsequent destruction or collection of hydrocarbons using a regenerative thermal oxidizer or carbon adsorption. This system operates on the principle that volatile organic compounds have relatively high vapor pressures and will volatilize at ambient soil temperatures provided a reduction in pressure is applied. The treatment Project: AEC 94C-1411 6 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND · 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 · BAKERSFIELD. CA 93313 805/831-1646 * FAX 805/831-1771 Environmental Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. at the subject site would also involve injecting air into the perimeter wells to enhance the volatilization of the diesel-range hydrocarbons while oxygenating the soil and promoting natural bio-degradation. Vapor extraction is most effective and efficient in coarse grained soils (SP), although soils classified as ML [silt) also have the capability of being treated by this method. Because hydrocarbon vapors are generated by the removal process, an air emission recovery system will be required by the local Air Pollution Control District [APCD) if the hydrocarbon concentrations exceed allowable emission levels. The soil venting system is also most effective on hydrocarbons with high vapor pressures. The advantages of this treatment alternative include the ability to treat the soil in-situ, ease of installation and manifolding of the extraction wells, minimal maintenance, relatively rapid reduction in hydrocarbon concentrations, and minimal disruption of normal site operations. Alternative ~3: Bioremediation involves treating the impacted soil either aboveground or in-situ. The aboveground treatment alternative involves excavation and surface treatment of the affected soil and is more time-efficient and effective than the in- situ method. However, this discussion will center on the in-situ method because the depth of gasoline impacted soil and the proximity to the warehouse negates an excavation alternative. The in-situ treatment method involves introduction of microbes and nutrients to the contaminated soil via injection wells screened across the affected intervals. A mixing tank is placed above the well and hydrostatic head pressure allows continual percolation of biologically active fluids through the contaminated zones. The soil type is primarily a sand or silty sand and would be receptive to an active biological treatment method. However, intervals of consolidated sand are also present, which could impede the lateral migration of the microbes. To offset this effect it would be necessary to install a tight injection well pattern, which increases the treatment cost per cubic yard. 7.0 CONCLUSIONS On the basis of our investigation, AEC presents the following conclusions: a) The soil profile at the subject site generally consists of interbedded sands and silts to the total drilled depth of 60 feet. b) The analytical results indicate elevated levels of TPH-g and BTXE to a total depth of 40 feet in B-2 and B-3. TPH-g and BTXE levels are below the RAL for gasoline in soil in all other samples analyzed. c) The vertical extent of the gasoline migration appears to extend to a depth of 60 feet BGL. The lateral extent of the plume is about 60 feet. The approximate volume of the plume is 6,280 cubic yards and extends underneath a large portion of the site and probably the adjoining streets. ~ Project: AEC 94C-t411 7 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD, #206 .

(AEC) to prepare the following work plan for ~he remediation of gasoline-impacted soil via vapor extraction at the Chico and the Man Service Station facility (Figure t]. The site address is 231 East 18~ Street, Bakersfield, California. The lead agency for this project is the Kern County Environmental Health Services Department (KCEHSD], represented by Ms. Flora Darling, Hazardous Materials Specialist. Specific locations of the borings drilled during AEC's investigations and the proposed vapor extraction wells are shown on Figure 2. 1 .t Purpose The soil remedlatlon program described in this work plan has the following objectives: · Install four vapor extraction wells proximal to the center of the gasoline plume and three inlet wells outside the plume; · Manifold the vapor extraction unit (internal combustion/catalytic converter/carbon canister] to the wells and conduct the Soil remediation program. 1.2 Scope of Work The scope of services described in this work plan include: Locating underground utilities using available property owner information as well as the Underground Service Alert [USA]. Advancing seven soil borings in the vicinity of the former underground storage tanks JUST'si and completing them as vapor extraction/inlet wells. Vadose wells will be advanced to depths between 25 and 60 feet BGL. The augers will be steam-cleaned prior to drilling the barings to avoid cross-contamination. Soil samples will be collected at predetermined depths to be evaluated in the field. As planned, samples will be collected at approximate 5-foot intervals to total depth in each well. The samples will be collected using a standard California split-spoon sampler. Brass tubes will be steam- cleaned prior to use. The samples will be field-screened and selected samples will be chosen for chemical analysis. Field-screening will be accomplished using a photoionization detector (PID] with a 10.0 eV lamp. Soil samples for chemical analyses will be collected In brass tubes and sealed with end caps and tape.' The sealed tubes will immediately be Project: AEC 94C-1464 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND Vapar Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. o placed in a cooler chilled with Blue Ice to be .transported to a State- certified labaratory 'under chain-of-custody protocol. Selected soil samples will be analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline [TPH-g] and volatile aromatics [BTXE], using EPA methods 8015 Modified and 8020 respectively. Vapor extraction wells will be installed in the soil barings according to the design illustrated in Figure 4. Field baring logs will be prepared as will the vapor extraction Well construction details. Install and operate the vapor extraction system (VES) as described In Sections 3 and 4. Install a security enclosure around the vapor extraction equipment. Prepare a final report which describes the results of the soil investigation and mitigation. Data included will be drilling methods, sampling methods, chemical analytical results, and conclusions. A summary of the installation and operation of the vapor extraction system will also be' presented. t .3 Schedule Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. anticipates beginning the work described in this work plan within two weeks of approval by KCEHSD and authorization to proceed from Mr. Gene Bolton. Drilling will commence only after applicable county permits have been obtained. The soil borings are expected to be completed within one week of mobilization to the site. Installation of the vapor extraction wells in the soil borings will be completed concurrently. Pending approval to construct and operate the VES by the Kern County Air Pollution Control District, AEC will install the VES unit. Remediation is expected to take approximately six months once vapor extraction is initiated. Periodic vapor testing will be conducted to monitor progress. If such testing indicates remediatian has been accamplished within a shorter time frame, a confirmation boring will be advanced. Once laboratory confirmation of remediation is obtained and found to be within KCEHSD guidelines, the VES equipment will be disengaged. Equipment removal is expected to be accomplished within two weeks of confirmation of remediation. A final report will be prepared summarizing all field remedial operations and laboratory results. The report will be provided within one month of mitigation. 2.0 BACKGROUND On April 21, 1989 Valley Tree Construction supervised the excavation, removal, and disposal of four [4) gasoline UST's from the subject site.

The extraction wells will be constructed as nested wells and completion zones will be stagg~¥ed in such a manner that covers the entire plume area. The inlet wells will be screened at intervals that allow them to service the entire plume. Vadose well locations are plotted on Figure 2. Well positions and screened intervals are presented in cross sectional view on Figure 3 and a typical well construction diagram is shown on Figure 4. 4.0 METHODS The methods to be employed during implementation of the above scope of work are described in the following sections. 4.1 Boring Methods The borings will be advanced using a Mobile Drill B-61 rig, or equivalent, with a 10-inch diameter, hollow-stem, continuous-flight auger in accordance with ASTM Method D 1452-80 for soil investigations and sampling by auger borings. At no time shall any water or other liquid be added to the boring. The augers will be steam-cleaned prior to drilling the borings. The lithology and other pertinent data will be recarded on a field boring log in accordance with ASTM Method D 2488-84 for visual description and identification of soils. Cuttings from the borings will be placed in appropriate 55-gallon containers or on sheets of plastic and covered until verified with analytical results, whether or not the soil is contaminated. Project: 4.2 Soil Sampling Soil samples will be collected through the auger In 2-inch diameter by 6-inch long brass sleeves driven in a split-spoon sampler by a 140-pound hammer with a 30-inch drop in accordance with ASTM Methods D t586-84 for split-barrel sampling of soil and D 1587-83 for thin-walled tube sampling of soils. The brass sleeves and sampler will be washed in a trisodium phosphate (TSP) or Alconox solution and rinsed in clean, deionized water prior to each use. Soil samples will be collected at selected depths in each boring in order to provide baseline data and confirm prior laboratory results. The total depth of VE-2 will extend to 5 feet below the last detected indication of contamination. The blow counts, recovery, and lithology will be recorded on the field logs. Lithology will be described in accordance with ASTM Method D 2488-84 [Standard Practice for Description and Identification of Soils). Selected soil samples will be sealed with Teflon tape, capped, sealed with duct tape, labeled in accordance with EPA protocols, recorded on a chain-of- custody document, placed in a cooler chilled with Blue Ice at 4-degrees centigrade, and AEC 94C- 1464 5 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MiND 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 * BAKERSFIELD. CA93313 805/831-1646 · FAX 8051831-1771 Vapor Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. transported to a State-certified laboratory with the chain-of-custody for the specified analyses. 4.3 Field Scrccning of Soil Samples Soil samples will be collected using three 6-inch brass tubes installed inside a split-spoon sampler. The middle sample tube will be immediately capped and stored in an iced cooler upon collection. The bottom tube will be used for lithologic description, and the top tube will be used for field screening. The soil collected in the top tube will be capped, and a headspace reading will be obtained using the PID. The standard headspace reading will be noted on the boring log. 4.4 Soil Analyses The soil samples will be analyzed by a California-certified laboratory utilizing State guidelines and EPA protocols. The samples will be analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline by EPA method 8015 [Modified), and volatile aromatic organics by EPA method 8020. 4.5 Installation of Vapor Extraction Wells The vapor extraction wells will be constructed as shown on Figure 4 and installed in the following manner: The 2-inch, schedule-40, polyvinyl chloride {PVC) pipe will be flush- threaded and steam-cleaned prior to installation. Approximately 30 feet of 0.040-inch slotted PVC, an end cap, and sufficient blank casing to reach the surface will be installed through the auger. Aquarium sand will be poured down the auger while removing five feet of auger at a time. The filter pack will be placed two feet above the screened interval. Three feet of bentonite pellets will be poured and then hydrated to form a seal. The well-cover traffic boxes will be set in cement. The traffic boxes, control valves, and VES manifolding will be set in accordance with standard practice. 4.6 Source Testing Prior to obtaining a Permit to Operate the regenerative thermal oxidizer on a full time basis, a source test will be required to collect data demonstrating that the air flow from the effluent stack does not present a health and safety concern to the site employees or nearby population. The vapor extraction source test will consist of removing hydrocarbon laden vapors from the extraction wells for an anticipated period of 24 hours to achieve a steady state flow condition. Flow rates, organic vapor concentrations, and vapor temperature will be measured at the extraction wellhead, then recorded. The flow rate, vapor pressure, and vapor temperature of the blower influent and effluent will also be measured and recorded. Vapor samples will be obtained from the influent sampling ports and from the stack sampling port.

CA93313 805/831-1640 * FAX805/831-1771 Yapor Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Flow rates will be measured using manometers, installed at the extraction wellhead and blower influent. Pressure will be measured with a vacuum gauge at the extraction wellhead, and at blower influent and effluent sample ports. Yapor temperature will be measured with dial thermometers installed at the extraction wellhead, and blower influent. Vapor samples will be collected at the systems influent sampling port and at the effluent sampling port on the stack. Samples will be collected in Tedlar sampling bags and analyzed for tota~ petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPH-g) and volatile aromatics (BT×E). 4.7 Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer Operation The regenerative thermal oxidation system is designed for continuous operation 24 hours per day, 7 days per week until acceptable hydrocarbon levels have been achieved. The anticipated duration of this project is estimated at 6 months from the beginning of the extraction of vapors. The airNOC stream enters the YES via a 4 inch flanged connection. The entrainment separator/silencer is the first component within the process. Noise is also ,reduced before the air/VOC stream enters the vacuum pump. The flow, under positive pressure of approximately 37" of water column, passes over an LEL sensor [AT1], flow measuring device [FEI, DP1], and a static pressure measuring device [P$I ]. The LEL sensor is used to purge the system, and in some cases shut the entire system down. ATt, FEt, and DPI are used to calculate total pounds of VOCs destroyed and give valuable Information concerning soil and well conditions. Static pressure is monitored to indicate blockages in the system. After the aforementioned instrumentation, the process stream enters the oxidizer Ia bed filled with silica gravel). The oxidizer contains silica gravel with heating elements located In the center and perimeter. The main operating principles of the oxidizer are the thermal properties of the silica gravel and bi-directional flow. The oxidizer has flow ports at the top and boltom. The air/VOC process stream enters from one end of the oxidizer before entering the section of the oxidizer that contains the heating elements. After oxidation, the process stream exits through the opposite port. To capture the heat generated by the oxidation process the directional flow is switched by pneumatically actuated valving. Thus, what was the exit port now becomes the entrance port. The incoming air/VOC stream absorbs the thermal energy off of the silica gravel, and is close to oxidation temperature before entering the section of the oxidizer which contains the heating elements. The process stream exits the oxidizer via a 4" diameter stack. The hydrocarbon destruction efficiency of a regenerative thermal oxidation unit is in excess of 99% based on informatian relayed to AEC by the equipment manufacturer XIT Technologies. Emissions will be monitored daily during the first week of operation and weekly thereafter until project completion. Inlet vapor concentrations will be monitored continuously using an LEL sensor and cross-checked using a hand held GasTech LEL vapor sensor. Dilution air will be added manually to control the LEL and as remediation Project: AEC 94C-t464 7 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND 4400 ASHE ROAD. #200 * BAKERSFIELD.

Health .& Safety Plan for Chico and the Man Service Station 231 East 18m Street County of Kern · Bakersfield, California Introduction: A Site Safely Plan [SSP] has been designed to address safety provisions needed during the site soil assessment / remedlation. Its purpose is to provide established procedures to protect all on-site personnel from direct skin contact, inhalation, or ingestion of potentially hazardous materials that may be encountered at the site. The SSP establishes personnel responsibilities, personal protective equipment standards, decontamination procedures and emergency action plans. Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. seeks to enter the Chico and the Man Service Station property for the purpose of drilling, soil sampling, and well installation. Soil samples will be collected during drilling operations. Each sample to be chemically analyzed will be collected in a brass sleeve, capped with lined plastic lids, sealed with tape and placed on Ice in a chilled cooler. Chain-of-custody protocol will be followed. Drilling equipment will be transported to the site and operated by: S B & S Environmental Drilling 3022 West Santa Ana Fresno, California 93722 Contractor's License *'560175 This SSP describes means for protecting all on-site personnel from contamination or personal injury while conducting drilling and installation activities. As described below, we will strive to meet all requirements promulgated by the California Department of Health Services. Responsibilities of Key Personnel: All on-site personnel have been assigned key responsibilities. Mr. Jonathan Buck will serve as Project Manager and on-site Geologist. He will also serve as Site Safely Officer (SSO]. As SSO, Mr. Buck will assure that on-site personnel have received a copy of the SSP. Personnel will be required to document their full understanding of the SSP before admission to the site. Compliance with the SSP will be monitored at all times by the SSO. Appropriate personal protective equipment, as listed below, will be available and utilized by all on-site personnel. Prior to beginning work, the SSO will conduct a training session to assure that all personnel are aware of safe work practices. In the training session, personnel will be apprised of hazards at the site. The SSO will utilize Material Safety Data Sheets for information on compounds to be encountered. Project: AEC 94C-1464 I Vapor Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Mr. Buck will also be responsible for keeping field notes, collecting and securing samples, and assuring sample integrity by adherence t° chain-of-custody protocol. .All on-site personnel will take reasonable precautions to avoid unforeseen hazards. After documenting their understanding of the SSP, each on-site employee will be responsible for strict adherence to all points contained herein. Any deviation observed will be reported to the SSO and corrected. On-site employees are held responsible to perform only those tasks for which they believe they are qualified. Provisions of this SSP are mandatory, and personnel associated with on-site activities will adhere strictly hereto. Job Hazard Analyses: Hazards likely to be encountered on-site include those commonly encountered when operating any mechanical equipment, such as the danger of falling objects or moving machinery. Simple precautions will reduce or eliminate risks associated with operating such equipment. An excavation contractor has been employed to deliver and operate all excavating equipment. Qualified personnel only will have any contact with this equipment. All on-site personnel, including the excavation contractor and his employees, are required to wear hard hats when in close proximity to excavating equipment. Latex sampling gloves will be worn by persons collecting or handling samples to prevent exposure to contaminants. Gloves will be changed belween samples. Used gloves are discarded in order to avoid cross-contamination. Proper respiratory equipment will be worn if vapor contamination levels on-site exceed State-mandated action levels: a photoionlzation detector will be used for this purpose. The action level requiring respiratory apparatus will be 5 ppm in the breathing space. Furthermore, no smoking, open flames, or sparks will be permitted on-site. Risk Assessment Summary: Exposure to chemicals anticipated on-site include gasoline, benzene, toluene, and xylenes [BTX]. These chemicals represent hazards because they are moderately to extremely toxic, and most are highly flammable. Threshold Limit Values ['rLV's), Short Term Exposure Limits (STEL's] and Toxicity levels (LD50, oral-rat], all In mg/kg [ppm], are listed below: Compound TLV STEL Toxici~ Gasoline 200 300 ....

Exposure Monitorin Plan: A PID will be used to monitor vapor concentrations around the site. Should concentrations exceed TLV's, protective measures will be taken. Passive dosimeter badges will be placed in downwind locations if PID readings indicate high levels of volatile organics in the breathing space. Personal Protective Equipment: On-site personnel will have access to respirators with organic vapor cartridges. Replacement cartridges will be available on-site as needed. When handling samples, the on-site Geologist will wear latex gloves. Hard hats will be worn by all on-site personnel when in proximity to drilling equipment. Work Zones and Security Measures: Access to the site will be restricted to authorized personnel. A set of cones, placards, or wide yellow tape surrounding the site will define the perimeter, if needed. The Project Manager will be responsible for site security. Decontamination Measures: Avoidance of contamination whenever possible is the best method for protection. Common sense dictates that an-site personnel avoid sitting, leaning or placing equipment on possible contaminated soil. All persannel will be advised to wash their hands, neck and face with soap and water before taking a break or leaving the site. Respirators will be washed with soap and water follawing each day's use. Excavation and sampling equipment used will be decontaminated by steam-cleaning. Sampling equipment will be decontaminated before each sample is taken. General Safe Work Practices: On-site personnel will be briefed each day in "tailgate" safety meetings as to the day's goals and equipment to be used. Anticipated contaminants and emergency procedures will be reviewed. Appropriate personal protective equipment will be worn and verified as correct by SSO, including respirator fit. Excavation and sampling equipment will be steam-cleaned before being transported on-site. Split-spoon sampling equipment will be cleaned before each use. Augers will be steam-cleaned beNveen borings. The on-site Geologist will oversee operations and log borings. The Sample Coordinator will assure that proper protocol is adhered to at all times regarding the collection and handling of samples. Project: AEC 94C-t464 3 Vapor Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Trainin~l Requirements: The SSO will conduct a pre-site training session which will include explanations of MSDS forms, ~.contaminant properties, warning signs, health hazard data, risk from exposure, and emergency First Aid. All pertinent chemicals are to be covered, and the SSO will assure that eveh/one fully understands site hazards. Medical Surveillance Pro~lram: According to CFR 29, 1910.120, Paragraph If], employees who wear respirators thirty [30] days or more during one [1] year or who have been exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards above established permissible exposure limits are required to be medically monitored. All site personnel will be required to submit to a complete chemical, physical examination within the past year. Record Keeoina: Documentation will be kept on file regarding personnel exposed to contaminant hazards on the job site according to OSHA regulations. Documentation that employees have received training on the SSP, respiratory protection, MSDS forms, and all emergency procedures will be Included. These will be reviewed during the preliminary "tailgate" training meeting. Exposure records filed for each job will be kept for thirty years fo meet requirements. Included in the files will be the names and Social Security numbers of employees, medical evaluations, on- the-job logs from entry to exit, First Aid administered, visits on-site by outside persons and personal air monitoring records. Contingency Plans: In the event of an accident, Injury, or other emergency, the Project Director, Senior Project Manager, or other person, will notify the appropriate government agencies or individuals as follows: Kern County Environmental Health Department 2700 M Street Bakersfield, California 93301 [805] 86t-3636 Police, Fire, or Ambulance Emergency 9-I-I Nearest Emergency Hospital: Bakersfield Memorial Hospital 420 34a' Street Bakersfield, California 93301 (805) 327-I 792 Project: AEC 94C-t464 4 Vapor Extraction Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc.

Upon demonstrating the plume is stable and no longer a threat to groundwater request that no further action be required and final site closure be granted. 1.2 Scope of Work The scope of services described in this work plan include: Locating underground utilities using available property owner information as well as the Underground Service Alert [USA]. Advancing one soil boring in the vicinity of the former underground storage tanks [UST's]. Soil samples will be collected at predetermined depths to be evaluated in the field. As planned, samples will be collected at approximate 5-foot intervals to total depth in each well. The samples will be collected using a standard California split-spoon sampler. Brass tubes will be steam-cleaned prior to use. The samples will be field-screened and selected samples will be chosen for chemical analysis. Field-screening will be accomplished using a photoionization detector (PID) with a t0.0 eV lamp. Soil samples for chemical analyses will be collected in brass tubes and sealed with end caps and tape. The sealed tubes will immediately be placed in a cooler chilled with Blue Ice to be transported to a State-certified laboratory under chain- of-custody protocol.

On December ~2, t993, four soil borings (B-~, B-2, B-3, and B-4) were drilled on the subject property. The borings were positioned to evaluate the vertical and horizontal extent of the hydrocarbon migration and advanced using a truck-mounted Mobile B-6t drill rig, equipped with 8-inch O.D. continuous flight, hollow-stem augers. Borings I, 2, and 4 were drilled to a total depth of 60 feet BGL and boring 3 was drilled to 30 feet BGL. Selected soil samples from these borings were submitted to Associated Laboratories, Inc., of Orange, California and analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline [TPH-g] and volatile aromatics [BTXE] using CA DHS and EPA 8020 method, respectively. The analytical results are presented in Table 2. Units are in milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg], which are equivalent to parts per million [ppm].

Non-detected at indicated limit of detection Detection Limit Upon review of the assessment results KCEHD required that remediation activities be undertaken to obtain acceptable hydrocarbon concentrations, On December 4, 1995 a vapor extraction system was installed and it's operation initiated. Initial vapor concentrations were measured at 91% of the lower explosive limit [LEL] and after eighteen days of operation had dropped off to 21% of the LEL. After allowing the formation to rest for 17 days the LEL returned to 49% then dropped off to 11% of the LEL after 30 days. The formation was allowed to rest again for 14 days and a vacuum was reinduced which resulted in the LEL level returning to 52% and dropping off to less than 10% in 3 days and to 7% in 7 days. This pattern of LEL readings indicate that a reduction in hydrocarbons has taken place; therefore, AEC is proposing confirmation sampling. 3.0 WORK PLAN Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. proposes to advance one soil boring in the center of the plume and collect six soil samples at 15, 25, 30, 35, 40, and 50 feet BGL for the purpose of achieving the goals stated in this document. The boring location is presented in Figure 3. Project: AEC 96P-t640 4 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 4.0 METHODS The methods to be employed during implementation of the above scope of work are described in the following sections. 4. t Boring Methods The boring will be advanced using a Mobile Drill B-61 rig, or equivalent, with a 8-inch diameter, hollow-stem, continuous-flight auger in accordance with ASTM Method D 1452- 80 for soil investigations and sampling by auger borings. At no time shall any water or other liquid be added to the boring. The augers will be steam-cleaned prior to drilling the borings. The lithology and other pertinent data will be recorded on a field boring log in accordance with ASTM Method D 2488-84 for visual description and identification of soils. Cuttings from the boring will be placed on sheets of plastic and covered until verified with analytical results, whether or not the soil is contaminated. 4.2 Soil Sampling Soil samples will be collected through the auger in 2-inch diameter by 6-inch long brass sleeves driven In a split-spoon sampler by a 140-pound hammer with a 30-inch drop in accordance with ASTM Methods D 1586-84 for split-barrel sampling of soil and D 1587-83 for thin-walled tube sampling of soils. The brass sleeves and sampler will be washed in a trisodium phosphate ('I'SP] or Alconox solution and rinsed in clean, deionized water prior to each use. Soil samples will be collected at selected depths in each boring in order to provide baseline data and confirm prior laboratory results. The total depth of the boring will extend to 5 feet below the last detected indication of contamination. The blow counts, recovery, and lithology will be recorded on the field logs. Lithology will be described in accordance with ASTM Method D 2488-84 [Standard Practice for Description and Identification of Soils). Selected soil samples will be sealed with Teflon tape, capped, sealed with duct tape, labeled in accordance with EPA protocols, recorded on a chain-of- custody document, placed in a cooler chilled with Blue Ice at 4-degrees centigrade, and transported to a State-certified laboratory with the chain-of-custody for the specified analyses. 4.3 Field Screening of Soil Samples Soil samples will be collected using three 6-inch brass tubes installed inside a split-spoon sampler. The middle sample tube will be immediately capped and stored in an iced cooler upon collection. The bottom tube will be used for lithologic description, and the top tube will be used for field screening. The soil collected In the top tube will be capped, and a headspace reading will be obtained using the PID. The standard headspace reading will be noted on the boring log. Project: AEC 96P-1640 5 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND · Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 4.4 Soil Analyses The soil samples will be analyzed by a California-certified laboratory using State guidelines and EPA protocols. The samples will be analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline by EPA method 8015 [gasoline), and volatile aromatic organics {BTEX) by EPA method 8020. 4.5 Abandonment of Vapor Extraction Wells Once final closure is granted the vapor extraction wells will be abandoned by filling the casing with neat cement and the destroying the casing to approximately 5-feet BGL. 5.0 SEE SAFETY PI_AN A Site Safety Plan is included Regulations and CAC Title 20. as Appendix B which complies with Worker Right-to-Know Project: AEC 96P-1640 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND · Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 6.0 REMARKS / SIGNATURES This work plan represents the professional opinions of Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc, -'These opinions are based on currently available data and were arrived at in accordance with accepted hydrogeologic and environmental engineering practices.

As described below, we will strive to meet all requirements promulgated by the California Department of Health Services. Responsibilities of Key Personnel: All on-site personnel have been assigned key responsibilities. Mr. Jonathan Buck will serve as Project Manager and on-site Geologist. He will also serve as Site Safety Officer [SSO].. As SSO, Mr. Buck will assure that on-site personnel have received a copy of the SSP. Personnel will be required to document their full understanding of the SSP before admission to the site. Compliance with the SSP will be monitored at all times by the SSO. Appropriate personal protective equipment, as listed below, will be available and utilized by all on-site personnel. Prior to beginning work, the SSO will conduct a training session to assure that all personnel are aware of safe work practices. In the training session, personnel will be apprised of hazards at the site. The SSO will utilize Material Safety Data Sheets for information on compounds to be encountered. Project: AEC 96P-1640 I Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Mr. Buck will also be responsible for keeping field notes, collecting and securing samples, and assuring sample integrity by adherence to chain-of-custody protocol. All on-site personnel will take reasonable precautions to avoid unforeseen hazards. After documenting their understanding of the SSP, each on-site employee will be responsible for strict adherence to all points contained herein. Any deviation observed will be reported to the ssa and corrected. On-site employees are held responsible to perform only those tasks for which they believe they are qualified. Provisions of this SSP are mandatory, and personnel associated with on-site activities will adhere strictly hereto. Job Hazard Analyses: Hazards likely to be encountered on-site include those commonly encountered when operating any mechanical equipment, such as the danger of falling objects or moving machinery. Simple precautions will reduce or eliminate risks associated with operating such equipment. An excavation contractor has been employed to deliver and operate all excavating equipment. Qualified personnel only will have any contact with this equipment. All on-site personnel, including the excavation contractor and his employees, are required ta wear hard hats when in close proximity to excavating equipment. Latex sampling gloves will be.worn by persons collecting or handling samples to prevent exposure to contaminants. Gloves will be changed between samples. Used gloves are discarded in order to avoid cross-contamination. Proper respiratory equipment will be worn if vapor contamination levels on-site exceed State-mandated action levels; a photoionization detector will be used for this purpose. The action level requiring respiratory apparatus will be 5 ppm in the breathing space. Furthermore, no smoking, open flames, or sparks will be permitted on-site. Risk Assessment Summary: Exposure to chemicals anticipated on-site include gasoline, benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX]. These chemicals represent hazards because they are moderately to extremely toxic, and most are highly flammable. Threshold Limit Values [TLV's), Shod Term Exposure Limits [STEL's) and Toxicity levels [LD50, oral-rat], all in rog/kg [ppm], are listed below: Compound TLV STEL Toxicity Gasoline 200 300 .... Diesel 50 75 .... Benzene 10 25 4894 Toluene t00 150 5000 Xylene t00 150 4300 Benzene is a known carcinogen. Project: AEC 96P-t640 2 Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Exposure Monitorina Plan: A PID will be used to monitor vapor concentratians around the site. Should concentratians exceed -'TLV's, protective measures will be taken. Passive dosimeter badges will be placed in,downwind locations if PID readings indicate high levels of volatile organics in the breathing space. Personal Protective Equipment: On-site personnel will have access to respirators with organic vapor cartridges. Replacement cartridges will be available on-site as needed. When handling samples, the on-site Geologist will wear latex gloves. Hard hats will be worn by all on-site personnel when in proximity to drilling equipment. Work Zones and Security Measures: Access to the site will be restricted to authorized personnel. A set of cones, placards, or wide yellow tape surrounding the site will define the perimeter, if needed. The Project Manager will be responsible for site security. Decontamination Measures: Avoidance of contamination whenever possible is the best method for protection. Common sense dictates that on-site personnel avoid sitting, leaning or placing equipment on possible contaminated soil. All personnel will be advised to wash their hands, neck and face with soap and water before taking a break or leaving the site. Respirators will be washed with soap and water following each day's use. Excavation and sampling equipment used will be decontaminated by steam-cleaning. Sampling equipment will be decontaminated before each sample is taken. General Safe Work Practices: On-site personnel will be briefed each day in "tailgate" safety meetings as to the day's goals and equipment to be used. Anticipated contaminants and emergency procedures will be reviewed. Appropriate personal protective equipment will be worn and verified as correct by SSO, including respirator fit. Excavation and sampling equipment will be steam-cleaned before being transported on-site. Split-spoon sampling equipment will be cleaned before each use. Augers will be steam-cleaned between borings. The on-site Geologist will oversee operations and log borings. The Sample Coordinator will assure that proper protocol is adhered to at all times regarding the collection and handling of samples. Project: AEC 96P-t640 3 Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. Trainin.q Requiremenls: The SSO will conduct a pre-site training session which will include explanations of MSDS forms, contaminant properties, warning signs, health hazard data, risk from exposure, and emergency First Aid. All pertinent chemicals are to be covered, and the SSO will assure that everyone fully understands site hazards. Medical Surveillance Proaram: According to CFR 29, 19t0.120, Paragraph (fi, employees who wear respirators thirty (30] days ar more during one [I) year or who have been exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards above established permissible exposure limits are required to be medically monitored. All site personnel will be required to submit to a complete chemical, physical examination within the past year. Record KccDincI: Documentation will be kept on file regarding personnel exposed to contaminant hazards on the job site according to OSHA regulations. Documentation that employees have received training on the SSP, respiratory protection, MSDS forms, and all emergency procedures will be included. These will be reviewed during the preliminary "tailgate" training meeting. Exposure records filed for each job will be kept for thirty years to meet requirements. Included in the files will be the names and Social Security numbers of employees, medical evaluations, on- the-job logs from entry to exit, First Aid administered, visits on-site by outside persons and personal air monitoring records. Contingency Plans: In the event of an accident, injury, or other emergency, the Project Director, Senior Project Manager, or other person, will notify the appropriate government agencies or individuals as follows: Kern County Environmental Health Deportment 2700 M Street Bakersfield, California 93301 [805] 861-3636 Police, Fire, or Ambulance Emergency 9-1-1 Nearest Emergency Hospital: Bakersfield Memorial Hospital 420 34th Street Bakersfield, California 93301 (805) 327-I 792 Project: AEC 96P-t640 4 Site Closure Work Plan Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc.

However my contractor and other professionals feel that we may have worked the project to acceptable completion." You conclude by stating "We will continue operations until notified otherwise." As you may have heard, the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has presented a final report to the State Water Resources Control Board entitled "Recommendations to Improve the Cleanup Process for California's Leaking Underground Fuel Tanks". The findings of the report indicate that passive bioremediation should be considered as the primary remediation tool in most cases once the fuel leak source has been removed. As a result of the findings, it has been determined that "low risk" soil only cases be closed. With regard to "low risk" groundwater cases, active remediation should be replaced with monitoring to determine if the plume is stable. You should contact your local regulating agency and inquire if this is considered a "low risk" site. The Fund will only reimburse costs incurred for corrective action if the corrective action work is directed by the local regulating agency. If your contractor feels that the site has been remediated to acceptable standards, they should present their recommendation to the local agency. In addition, in order to ensure that any future costs are reimbursable from the Fund, you must submit proposed activity(ies) and their associated costs to this office for cost pre- approval.

On December 12, 1993, four soil borings (B-I, B-2, B-3, and B-4) were drilled on the subject property. The borings were positioned to evaluate the vertical and horizontal extent of the hydrocarbon migration and advanced using a truck-mounted Mobile B-61 drill rig, equipped with 8-inch O.D. continuous flight, hollow-stem augers. Borings t, 2, and 4 were drilled to a total depth of 60 feet BGL and boring 3 was drilled to 30 feet BGL. Soil boring locations are plotted on Figure 3. Selected soil samples from these borings were submitted to Associated Laboratories, Inc., of Orange, California and analyzed for total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPH-g] and volatile aromatics [BTXE) using CA DHS and EPA 8020 method, respectively.

Non-detected at indicated limit of detection Detection Limit Upon review of the assessment results KCEHD required that remediation activities be undertaken to obtain acceptable hydrocarbon concentrations. On December 4, 1995 a vapar extraction system was installed and it's operation initiated. Vapor extraction points are presented on Figure 2. Initial vapor concentrations were measured at 9 I% of the lower explosive limit [LEL) and after eighteen days of operation had decreased to 2 I% of the LEL. After allowing the formation to rest for 17 days the LEL returned to 49% then dropped off to 11% af the LEL after 30 days of the operation. The formation was allowed to rest again for 14 days and a vacuum was reinduced which resulted in the LEL level returning to 52% and decreasing to less than 10% in 3 days and to 7% in 7 days. This pattern of LEL readings indicate that a reduction in hydrocarbons has taken place, for this reason AEC submitted a Confirmation Boring Workplan to KCEHD, On March 21, 1996 AEC implemented the work plan and this report presents the results. 3.0 SITE CHARACTERISTICS The following sections summarize the project site features and conditions along with regional and local geological and hydrological characteristics. Project: AEC 96V-1637 3 · ENVIRONMENTAL CONCEPTS WITH DESIGN IN MIND · 4400 ASHE ROAD. #206 * BAKERSFIELD. CAg3313 805/831-1646 * FAX 805/831-1771 Confirmation Boring Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 3.t Site Description The Chico and the Man Service Station is located on the southwest corner of the intersection of East ~8th and Sonora Streets, in Bakersfield, California. The general area is comprised of light industry and related services. The subject site is at an average elevation of 385-feet above mean sea level with minimal topographic relief. The property is presently a vacant lot. 3.2 Regional Geology The subject property is located in the Southern San Joaquin Valley [Valley] which is a part of the Central Valley of California. The Valley forms the southern two-thirds of the Central Valley and is characterized as a broad structural trough. It is bordered on the east by the Sierra Nevada Range and on the west by the Coast Range [Diablo and Temblor Mountains]. The Valley extends 250 miles southeastward from the confluence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers to the Tehachapi and San Emigdio Mountains. The width ranges from 25 miles wide near the Kern River to approximately 55 miles wide near the Kings River, with an approximate average width of 40 miles. Geology of the southern Valley consists of a Pre-Tertiary basement complex overlain by marine and non-marine sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age. These rocks are composed of consolidated sandstones, siltstones and shales which thicken from northeast to southwest. The Valley was once an inland sea of comparatively shallow depth that continued to subside due to the ever increasing load of' sediments transported and deposited from higher elevations. These, deposits consist of gravels, sands, silts and clays. The majority of the groundwater pumped from the Valley floor occurs within these relatively unconsolidated continental deposits, 3.3 Local Ccology The investigated property is. located on alluvial deposits, created from sediments transported and deposited by local streams, and during flood stages of the Kern River. The site is situated in a Iow to moderate energy flood plain environment consisting of weakly consolidated to unconsolidated, poorly bedded sands and silts. 3.4 Flydrogeology Ground and surface water in the central Bakersfield area is regulated by the Kern County Water Agency. According to the Kern County Water Agency "Water Supply Report-t994", depth to groundwater in unconfined and equivalent wells is estimated at 240-feet below grade level [BGL] at the site. No perched water bearing zones are reported in the area. The water agency's map showing depth groundwater is presented on Figure 4.

Hydrocarbon levels below 100 ppm were detected in B-I and B-4, and below 40 feet BGL in B-2. Plume dimensions are approximately 60 feet deep by 60 feet wide and forms a nonsymmetric, elongated, spheroid shape that occupies approximately 6,200 cubic yards. The highest concentrations of hydrocarbons are contained within about 785 cubic yards. The areal extent of the original hydrocarbon plume is shown on Figure 3 and a cross-sectional view is presented on Figure 5. 5.0 ASSESSMENT ACTIVITIES 5. t Decontamination Procedures Prior to initiating drilling operations, the augers and associated drilling equipment were thoroughly cleaned using a high-pressure steam-cleaner. In addition, the soil sampler and hand auger were washed in an Alconox solution and double-rinsed in clean, deionized water prior to initial use and between each sampling interval to minimize the possibility of cross-contamination between samples. 5.2 Soil Borings On March 21, 1996 one soil borings (CB-I) was advanced through the center of the former hydrocarbon plume for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the mitigation actions conducted the subject site. The borings were advanced using a truck- mounted, Mobile B-53 drill rig equipped with 8-inch O.D. continuous-flight, hollow-stem augers. The boring location is plotted on FigUre 3. Soil samples were collected at 15, 25, 35, 40, 45, and 50 feet BGL by driving a thin-walled steel sampler equipped with three 2-inch X 6-inch brass sleeves a minimum of 18 inches into previously undisturbed soil. The sampler was driven ahead of the augers using a 140- lb. slide hammer with a 30-inch vertical fall. Following each sample drive, the sampler was withdrawn from the borehole and the three brass sleeves were removed. The bottom sleeve was retained for laboratory analysis and prepared by placing Teflon tape and plastic caps over each end, then securing the caps with tape. The samples were labeled, recorded on a chain-of-custody document and placed in an ice chest chilled with Blue Ice and block ice. Soil exposed at each end of the center brass sleeve, as well as the cuttings, were examined for lithological purposes and far any obvious evidence of hydrocarbons. Lithologic descriptions were logged according to the Unified Soils Classification System (USCS] [Appendix B]. Chain-of-custody protocol was strictly followed to ensure sample integrity and traceability. Upon completion of the above-described procedures, the three borings were plugged with hydrated bentonite followed by a cement slurry to grade level.

CA 93313 805/831-1646 · FAX 805/831-1771 Confirmation Boring Assessment Report Advanced Environmental Concepts, Inc. 5.2.t Soils Profile The soil profile at the site Consists of silty sands, "clean" sands, and poorly' sorted sands to a total drilled depth of 60 feet BGL. The silty' sands [SM-ML] are commonly tan-brown, slightly to very compact, commonly friable, and slightly to moderately moist. The "clean" sands [SW] are olive gray-buff, moderately dense, unconsolidated, and slightly moist. The paorly sorted sands [SP-GC] commonly consist of olive-gray to white, moderately to very dense, unconsolidated to very consolidated, and slightly moist. The sediments are typical of Iow to moderate energy fluvial deposits subjected to periodic reworking during flood stages. The strata were loosely compacted due to the increasing weight of the overlying sediments. 6.0 ANALY11CAL RESULTS 6.t Soil Analyses Soil sample analyses were performed by SMC Labaratory, Inc., a California-certified laboratory, to determine the presence and concentration of tatal petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline (TPH-g) and volatile aromatics [BTXE) by CA DHS and EPA method 8020. The analytical results are tabulated below, and the laboratory reports are provided in Appendix C. Units are in milligrams per kilogram (rog/kg] which are equivalent to parts per million [ppm].

CAg3313 805/831-1646 * FAX 805/831-1771 Confirmation Boring Assessment Report Advanced in~vironmental Concepts, Inc. The highest recorded TPH-g concentration in the untreated plume was 14,000 ppm at a depth of 40 feet BGL. A TPH-g concentration of 680 ppm was recorded in soil sample CB-I- 40' which was collected from the past treatment plume at the same relative position within the plume and represents a 95% change (reduction) in hydrocarbon concentration. The 40 to 45 foot interval is represented by a silt and clayey silt layer which acts as a retarding layer for downward fluid migration. Fine sand, silt and clay soil types have a residual capacity for gasoline of 7,500 ppm (APl 1989) which is about 1 IX greater than the post treatment recorded high of 680 ppm TPH-g collected from this interval. Given the potential residual capacity of the silt layer, the recorded residual concentration and the absence of overlying contaminants it is highly unlikely that any further downward migration will occur or that the underlying groundwater located approximately 200 feet below the bottom of the residual plume will be impacted. 7.0 Based CONCLUSIONS on the results of the soil and groundwater investigation AEC tenders the following findings: In t989 four UST's were removed from the Chico and the Man facility; Analytical results for the soil samples collected during the tank removal activities indicated that an unauthorized release had occurred. Four soil borings were advanced for the purpose of evaluating the extent of hydrocarbon migration in the soil; After all assessment work was performed the hydrocarbon plume in the soil was estimated to extend to a depth of 45 feet BGL with the highest concentration, 14,000 ppm, being detected in B-2 at 40 feet BGL. Plume dimension were approximately 60 feet deep by 60 feet wide and formed a nonsymmetrical, elongated, spheroid shape that occupied approximately 6,200 cubic yards. A vapar extraction system was installed and operated from November, t995 to the present. Initial vapor concentrations were measured at 91%of the lower explosive limit [LEL] and after eighteen days of operation had decreased to 21% of the LEL. After allowing the formation to rest for t7 days the LEL returned to 49% and dropped off to 1 I% of the LEL after 30 days. The formation was allowed to rest again for 14 days and a vacuum was reinduced which resulted in the LEL level returning to 52% and decreasing to less than 10% in 3 days and to 7% in 7 days. One confirmation boring was advanced through the center of the former hydrocarbon plume and analytical data collected indicated that the high TPH-g concentration of 680 ppm was present in CB-I at 40 feet BGL and a Iow TPH-g concentration of 98 ppm at 15 feet BGL. This is a -95% (reduction] change from the previous recorded high-concentration of t4,000 ppm. Confirmation baring data also revealed that no contaminated soil interval exceeded 10 feet in thickness and no contaminated soil was detected below 45 feet BGL.

The distance between the migrated plume and underlying groundwater is approximately 200 feet. 8.0 RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the results of the confirmation sampling and the findings presented in this report AEC concludes that there has been a significant volumetric reduction of detectable hydrocarbons in the soil and that the hydrocarbon plume is stable and poses no threat to the underlying groundwater. For these stated reasons, AEC recommends that no further remedial action be required and that final site closure be granted. 9.0 UMITATIONS This work has been performed in accordance with generally-accepted environmental science and engineering practices. The soil samples for this project were obtained as directed by the on- site regulatory agency representative, hence the. analytical results are indicative of discrete samples and are not meant to be misconstrued or representative of unsampled subsurface areas.
