SITE CHARACTERIZATION WORK PLAN
VALLEY STEEL CONSTRUCTION
SITE BACKGROUND
Properties owned by Mr. John Antonino of Valley Steel Construct-
ion are located at 3300 and 3108 Antonino Avenue, Bakersfield,
California. The properties are situated in the eastern half of
Section 23, T.29S., R.27E., M.D.B.& M. (see Figure 1). The area
around the properties is .mostly commercial with some open space.
Steam cleaning facilities are located an both properties. The
steam cleaning facility at 3300 Antonino Avenue is located north
of the buil~ting under an attached canopy (see Figure 2). Fluid
from the steam cleaning area drains into a buried concrete
separation tank and then into a dry well located about 15 feet
north of the tank. The tank has only one compartment. Fluid
from the separation tank was sampled on May 11, 1993.
The diagram of the separation tank is shown on Figure '3. The
tank is 2 feet by 2 feet and 4 feet deep. It has concrete sides
and a concrete bottom. The drain exits the north side of the
tank about 2 feet below the concrete floor. There appears to be
a oil/water separator associated with ~this drain. There is a
clean out immediately north of the canopy. It is estimated that
the dry well is located about 9 feet north of the clean out (see

Figure 3
Figure 2). The tank is clean at this time and contains only
about one-half inch of Water.
The steam cleaning facility located~at 3108 Antonino Avenue is
located north of the building under an attached canopy (see
Figure 4). Fluid from the steam cleaning area drained into a ~
buried concrete separation tank similar to the one at 3300
Antonino Avenue. The fluid then drained into a dry well located
about 1.5 feet south of the tank. Fluid from the separation tank
was sampled on May 11, 1993.
The diagram of the separation tank is similar to the one shown on
Figure 3. There does not appear to be an oil/water separator
associated with the drain line from the tank to the dry well.
The top of the dry well is visible inside a small concrete vault.
The casing used in the dry well appears to be 8 inch sewer pipe.
The casing was open to a depth of about 13 feet.
SITE GEOLOGY
The sediments underlying the properties consist of Quaternary
alluvial fan deposits. These sediments were deposited from flood
stages on the Kern River. They consist mainly of silt, sands,
'and gravels. They are generally moist to slightly moist and
poorly consolidated.

According to the Report and General Soil Map, Kern C°unty,
California~ published by the Soil Conservation Service of the
U.S.D.A., the properties are covered with soils of the Hesperia-
Hanford association. These soils consist of well drained moder-
ately coarse textured soils developed in granitic alluvium. The
surface and subsurface soils are generally classified as massive,
sandy loams.
According to the 1990 Water Supply Report, published by the Kern
County Water Agency, the depth to groundwater beneath the proper-
ties was less than 100 feet in January of 1991. No shallow
perched groundwater (less than 20 feet below the surface) is
known to exist in the general area.
PRELIMINARY SITE ASSESSMENT RESULTS
The fluid in the separation tank located at 3300 Antonino Avenue
was sampled on May 11, 1993. The analytical results are included
as Appendix Ao The sample was collected by Mr. David Ritten-
house of BC Laboratories.
The sample was analyzed for CAM 17 heavy metals, total recover-
able petroleum hydrocarbons (EPA Method 418.1), PCB's (EPA Method
8080), volatile organics (EPA Method 8240), and total petroleum
hydrocarbons (gas and diesel - Modified EPA Method 8015).

The CAM 17 heavy metals analyses showed low levels of barium, ·
copper, lead, and zinc. ~~~eea~a~v~9~ The
lead concentration was 8.0 mg/kg. No soluble lead was detected~
in the sample. All other, metal concentrations were none detected
based on the practical quantitative limits.' The sample contained
total recoverable petroleum hydrocarbons of 6,400 mg/1. No PCB's
were detected in the sample. The EPA Method 8240 analyses showed
the presence of 1,1,1-trichloroethane at a concentration of 5,000
~g/1. No benzene was detected in the sample. Total petroleum
hydrocarbon concentrations as gasoline and diesel were 70 ~g/1
and 4,200 ~g/1, respectively. The constituent that appears to be
of most concern at this location is total recoverable petroleum
hydrocarbons.
The fluid in the separation tank located at 3108 Antonino Avenue
was also sampled on May 11, 1993. The analytical results are
included as Appendix B. These samples were also collected by Mr
David Rittenhouse of BC Laboratories.
Except ·for PCB's (EPA Method 8080), the sample was analyzed for
the same constituents as the sample form the separation tank
located at 3300 Antonino Avenue.

trations were none detected based on the practical quantitative
limits. The sample contained total recoverable petroleum hydro-
carbons of 180 mg/1. The EPA Method 8240 analyses showed the~
presence of three dichlorobenzenes, tetrachloroethane, and
trichloroethane. Total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline and
diesel were 41,000 ~g/1 and none detected, respectively. The
constituent that appears to be of the most concern at this
location is total petroleum hydrocarbons as gasoline.
SOIL SAMPLING PLAN
Three soil borings are proposed to investigate the vertical and
lateral extent and the degree of contamination at the property
located at 3300 Antonino Avenue. The proposed boring locations
are shown on Figure 2. Test Hole No'. 1 will be drilled about 2
feet west of the separation tank. Soil samples will be collected
at 2 and 6 feet below the bottom of the tank. This test hole may
be drilled deeper depending on possible contamination. It will
help delineate the extent of possible contamination under the
separation tank. No contamination is expected below this tank.
Test Hole No. 2 will be located immediately west of the dry well
location. It will help delineate the vertical extent of possible
contamination from the dry well. TeS~o~e~NO~will be located
~G~' feet west of Test Hole No. 2. This test hole will help

delineate the horizontal extent of possible contamination from
the dry well.
The borings will be drilled until the maximum vertical extent of
contamination is exceeded or to a depth of 50 feet. If contami-
nation is found to exceed a depth of 50 feet, further drilling
would require the client's authorization.
Soil samples will be collected at 5 foot intervals starting at a
depth of 10 feet below the surface in Test Holes Nos. 2 and 3.
The first soil sample collected from Test Hole No. 1 will be 2
feet below the bottom of the tank. The sample intervals may be
modified slightly depending on soil conditions, however, they
should not deviate significantly from the intended depths.
Approximately 20 soil samples will be collected and field-
screened. The 2 and 6 foot soil samples from Test Hole No. 1 and
approximately 4 soil samples from Test Hole Nos. 2 and 3 will be
submitted to a state certified laboratory ~~~~f.~!~'t~6~I~7~

The soil samples will be analyzed by BC Laboratories in Bakers-
field. The quality assurance and quality control of the
laboratory is available from the laboratory upon request. Chain
of custody records documenting sample handling will be included.
DUANE R. SMITH
AND ASSOCIATES
Soil samples will be collected using a split-spoon core sampler
driven into the soil utilizing a truck-mounted hollow stem auger
rig (Mobile Drill B-53). The split-spoon sampler holds three two
and one-half inch diameter by six inch long brass tubes.
The core sampler will be driven through the proper interval after
the hole is drilled to the sample depth with the hollow stem
auger. The sampler will then be removed from the drilling
equipment and the brass, tubes removed from the sampler.
The ends of one tube from each sample depth will be covered with
Teflon seals and PolYethylene caps. The tube will then be
labeled and placed in a polyethylene sample bag and the bag
sealed and labeled. Each bagged tube will be placed on blue ice
and retained in a chilled state for delivery to the laboratory.
Another soil sample from each sample depth will be retained for
field screening and soil descriptions. Field Screening will
consist of a headspace reading for hydrocarbon vapors with an Hnu
PID meter. In addition to the headspace readings, hydrocarbon
odors, if present, will be noted.
The augers will be steam cleaned between test holes. The sam-
pling equipment will be scrubbed, washed and thoroughly rinsed
between each sample collection. The test holes will be back-

filled with cement. Contaminated drill cuttings, as identified
by field screening, will be placed in DOT drums for future
treatment or disposal by the client.
Two soil borings are proposed to investigate the degree of
contamination at the property located at 3108 Antonino Avenue.
The proposed boring locations are shown on Figure 4. Test Hole
No. 1 will be hand augered about one foot south of the separation
tank through the bottom of the vault around the dry well. It
will be slant drilled at an angle of about 15° Soil samples
will be collected at approximately 2 and 6 feet below the bottom
of the tank. No contamination is expected below the separation
tank. Test Hole No. 2 will be hand augered through the middle of
the dry well to a depth of approximately 20 feet. Two soil
samples will be collected from the test hole. A minimum of 4
soil samples will be collected from the 2 test holes. These will
be submitted to a state certified laboratory and aR~'~'6~ ~

Me'thod 8015. %
If the analytical results from either test hole indicate highly
contaminated soil, deeper test holes may be needed. These would
have to be drilled with a hollow stem fight auger drilling rig.
The above approach was proposed due to the ease of hand auguring
and limited access to the facility for a large drilling rig.
DUANE R. SMITH
AND ASSOCIATES
Other conditions such as the analytical method, soil sample'
collection method, quality control, and decontamination will
follow those discussed earlier for the property at 3300 Antonino
Avenue. The test holes will not be backfilled with cement unless
they are deepened considerably more than projected.

APPENDIX C
SITE SAFETY PLAN
SITE SAFETY PLAN
VALLEY STEEL CONSTRUCTION
Introduction
A Site Safety Plan (SSP) has been designed to address safety
provisions needed during the site investigation work. Its purpose
is to pr°vide 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, standard decontamination procedures, and
emergency action plans.
The purpose of this work is to investigate the degree and extent of
oil and gasoline contaminated soil. Smith-Gutcher and Associates
plans on drilling six soil borings, around two tanks and associated
dry wells located on two properties. The borings will be drilled
by:
Melton Drilling Company
1701 Downing Avenue
Bakersfield, California 93306
C-57 license number 508270.
The SSP describes means for protecting all on-site personnel from
contamination or personal injury while conducting on'site activi-

l'
ties. As described below, we will meet all requirements of the
California Department of Health Services.
Site Backqround
Each property contains one underground tank and a dry well. The
tanks were used as separation tanks for steam cleaning facilities.
Responsibilities of Key Personnel
Ail personnel on-site will have assigned responsibilities. Duane
Smith or Tom Gutcher, California registered geologists, will serve
as Project Manager, field technician, and site safety officer
(SSO). Mr. Smith or Mr. Gutcher will assure that all on-site
personnel have a copy of the site safety plan. Personnel will be
required to document their full understanding of the SSP before
admission to the site. Compliance with the site safety plan will
be monitored at all times. A training session will be conducted to
assure that all personnel are aware of safe work practices. In the
training session, personnel will be made aware of hazards at the
site. Mr. Smith or Mr. Gutcher will be responsible for keeping
field notes, collecting soil samples, and following chain-of-
custody protocol.
SMITH- GUTCHER
AND ASSOCIATES, INC.

On-site employees will take reasonable precautions to avoid
unforeseen hazards. After documenting 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 Analysis
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.
A contractor (Melton Drilling) will be employed to drill and sample
six soil borings. Only qualified personnel will have any contact
with drilling and sampling equipment. All on-site personnel,
including the contractor and his employees, are required to wear
hard hats when in close proximity to the drilling equipment.
Proper respiratory equipment will be worn if vapor contamination
levels on-site exceed action levels as determined using a PID.
SMITH- GUTCHER
AND ASSOCIATES, INC.
3
Action levels requiring respiratory apparatus will be 10 ppm in the
breathing zone. Furthermore, no smoking, open flame, or sparks
will be permitted during drilling operations in order to prevent
accidental ignition.
Risk Assessment Summary
Exposure to chemicals anticipated on-site include oil and gasoline
constituents. Chemicals in these products can represent a hazard
because they are moderately to extremely toxic and most are highly
flammable. The Threshold Limits Values (TLV), Short Term Exposure
Limits (STEL), and Toxicity levels, all in ppm, are listed below:
Gasoline 200 300
Diesel 50 75
Benzene 10 25 4894
Toluene 100 150 5000
Xylene 100 150 4300
Benzene is considered an extreme cancer hazard.
SMITH- GUTCHER
AND ASSOCIATES, INC.

Exposure Monitoring Plan
A Photo-Ionization Detector (PID) '.will be used to monitor vaPor
concentrations around the sites. Should concentrations exceed TLV
levels, protective measures will be taken.
Personal Protective Equipment
Personnel on-site will have access to respirators with organic
vapor cartridges. Replacement cartridges will be available on-site
as needed. Hard hats will be worn by all personnel on-site when in
proximity of the drilling equipment.
Work Zones and Security Measures
Access to the area of investigation will be restricted to autho-
rized personnel. 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
SMITH- GUTCHER
AND ASSOCIATES,~ INC.
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. If
respirators are used, they will be washed with soap and water
following each day's use. Sampling equipment will be decontaminat-
ed before each sample is collected.
General Safe Work Practices
On-site personnel will be briefed each day in "tailgate" meetings
as to the day's goals and equipment to be used. Anticipated
contaminants and emergency procedures will be reviewed.
The Project Manager will oversee operations and act as the sample
coordinator to assure that proper protocol is used at all times in
collecting and handling samples.
Traininq Requirements
The SSO will inform all personnel on site of contaminant proper-
ties, health hazard data, risk from exposure, and emergency first

aid. Ail chemicals present will be discussed and the SSO will
assure that everyone fully understands site hazards.
Medical Surveillance Proqram
According to 29 CFR 1910.120 Paragraph (f), employees who wear
respirators 30 days or more during one year or who have been
exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards above established
permissible exposure limits are required to be monitored medically.
Record Keepinq
Documentation will be kept on personnel exposed to contaminant
hazards on the job site according to OSHA regulations. These will
include documentation that employees have received training on the
SSP, respiratory protection, and all emergency procedures. These
will'be reviewed during the pre-site training.
Exposure records on each job will be kept for 30 years to meet
requirements. Included will be names and social security number of
employees, on-the-job logs from entry to exit, first aid adminis-
tered, visits on-site by outside persons, and personal air
monitoring records.
