Comment: File last reviewed 9-8-94. Case was started in 1986
and monitoring was the option chosen for the site.
Levels of contamination appear to be decreasing.
5-4-95 spoke to Dodi Harrison with Hiram Walker
about site closure. I informed her that the site
is close but that an additional boring an air
sample may be required. She stated that she would
contact Rainey Smith. Need letter to new owner.
Try to close case 1-3-96. Case closure started'5-
'8-96. 5-9-96 Completed case closure summary and
file review. Sent summary to RWQCB. **** 5-23-96
Ye Pon ask for additional information. She did not
understand that the Vapor Well was drilled in the
tank excavation and soil samples were retrived at
that time. Sent summeries of analytical
information. Recieved call 6-10-96 from RWQCB
stating that they concur with closure.

Comments (Depth of Remedlation, etc.):
This is an old facility the tanks were removed in 1986. The option they were allowed to implement as a remedial
action was to monitor the plume for five years. The agreement was that the RP would sample the vapor well with a
PID and if no significant changes occurred the site would be closed. This agreement was completed in 1994. At that
time the property changed hands along with responsibility for further cleanup. The site has been fully characterized
with a total of 14 borings and 1 vadose well. The plume was approximately 120 feet across and from 20 to 80 feet
deep. Most of the area consists of contamination that was less than 1000 ppm TPH. The vapor monitoring well (1 I0
ft.) and last two borings (80 ft.) were drilled in 1989. The two borings were located outside of the former tank pit and
the vapor well was drilled directly through the pit. The results of the vapor well and boring soil samples are listed in
the AFTER column in the above table. The site is currently a paved parking lot.

Based upon review of the data collected during the vapor monitoring coupled with data from
previous investigations, the following conclusion was derived:
· As evidenced by the apparently insignificant difference in concentrations
between the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth annual monitoring of
the vadose zone well, it appears that vertical migration of petroleum
constituents has not occurred at the location of our vapor monitoring
well.
After your review and approval of the report, please forward the enclosed self-addressed report
to the Kern County Environmental Health Department. If there are any questions or if we can be of

FIFrH ANNUAL SOIL VAPOR MONITORING
CRYSTAL GEYSER FACILITY
(FORMER CALVIN COOLER BOTTLING PLANT)
1233 CALIFORNIA AVENUE
BAKERSFIELD, CALIFORNIA
INTRODUCTION
The following report summarizes the findings of our fifth annual soil vapor monitoring program
conducted at the above-referenced project site. This report represents the results of the fifth year in a
five year monitoring program.
In September 1986, five underground fuel storage tanks were removed from the project site. Soil
sampling from beneath the tanks revealed petroleum constituents to be present. As a result, two
additional investigations were conducted to characterize the limits of the soil contamination plume.
Following characterization, a vadose zone monitoring well was installed in June 1989 as part of a five
year monitoring program. Results of the first annual vadose zone monitoring suggested ambient
(background) concentrations of hydrocarbon vapors to be present. In March 1991, Krazan & Associates,
Inc. conducted the second sampling of the annual monitoring program. The results of the second annual
vadose zone monitoring program were presented in a report dated May 20, 1991. The results of that
event were consistent with the results of the first annual monitoring. In March 1992, Krazan &
Associates, Inc. conducted the third sampling of the annual monitoring program. The results of the third
annual vadose zone monitoring program were presented in a report dated March 24, 1992. The results
of that event were consistent with the results of the first and second annual monitorings. In April 1993,
Krazan & Associates, Inc. conducted the fourth sampling of the annual monitoring program. The results
of that event were consistent with the results of previous annual measurements. The results of the fifth
annual vadose zone monitoring program are presented in this report as follows.

SITE LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION
The subject property is currently developed as the Crystal Geyser facility and is located at the
southwest corner of California and Lakeview Avenues in Bakersfield, California. (See Drawing No. 1,
Vicinity Map). Specifically, the project site is located in the northwest ~A of Section 33, Township 29
South, Range 28 East of the Mount Diablo Baseline and Meridian. The facility was previously known
as the Calvin Cooler Bottling Plant and the Victori Winery. ' "'
GEOLOGIC AND HYDROLOGIC SETrING
Regional Geologic Settin~
The project site is located within the City of Bakersfield, California, which is within the San
Joaquin Valley. The San Joaquin Valley is bounded on the east by the Sierra Nevada and on the west
by the Coast and Diablo Ranges.
The San Joaquin Valley is composed primarily of alluvial sediments, some of which date back
to the Cretaceous (150-100 million years before present). Sediment thickness in several areas of the San
Joaquin Valley exceeds several thousand feet.
Site-Specific Geology
The topography of the site is relatively level. According to the 1973 photorevised version of the
U.S. Geological Survey Lamont 7.5 minute topographic quadrangle map, the area of the project site is
located at an elevation of approximately 406 feet above mean sea level.
During previous investigations, 12 exploratory soil borings were advanced to a maximum depth
of 100 feet below existing grade. The logs of those soil borings indicate silt to be present from grade
to a depth of approximately 3 feet. Between 3 feet and 20 feet below grade, interbedded lenses of fine
to medium grained sand, silty sands, and silt were noted. From approximately 20 feet to 25 feet, a fine
to medium sand persisted. Between 25 feet and 50 feet below grade, silt with occasional lenses of fine
sand was noted. From 50 feet to 100 feet below grade, a firm silt was present.
Fill material is believed to be present in the areas around existing structures. The previous tank
excavation was backfilled to grade with engineered fill comprised of clean fine to medium silty sand.
Hydrologic Settin~
The site is located within the San Joaquin Valley Hydrologic Study Area, which is primarily an
arid to semi-arid environment. Within the study area, 39 groundwater basins and areas of potential
KRAZAN & ASSOCIATES, INC.
Project No. E88-107
Page No. 3
groundwater storage have been identified. Useable storage totals 80 million acre-feet. Fresh-water
bearing deposits have a maximum thickness of 4,400 feet.
The area in which the project site is located is part of the Kern County Basin. This basin
currently has an overdraft problem, but is able to lessen its severity by using water from the State Water
Project. Overdraft is a condition in which groundwater resources are being depleted more rapidly than
they are being replenished. This results in a lowering of the groundwater surface.
- A single, unconfined aquifer exists in the vicinity of the project site. The water from this aquifer
is used for domestic, agricultural, and municipal purposes.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
On September 17, 1986, five underground storage tanks (two 8,000-gallon, two 10,000-gallon,
and one 550-gallon) were removed from the project site. Samples were obtained from beneath the tanks
by Krazan & Associates personnel in accordance with guidelines established by the Kern County
Environmental Health Department (EHD). Chemical analysis of the soil samples revealed petroleum
constituents to be present in the subsoils. Results of the chemical analysis are presented in Table I.

Upon review of the results of the chemical analysis performed on the samples obtained during
the tank removal, the Kern County Environmental Health Department (EHD) required that a preliminary
site characterization by conducted. Krazan & Associates was retained to perform the preliminary site
characterization.
A workplan for the preliminary site characterization was submitted to the Kern County EHD and
was subsequently approved. Nine soil borings were advanced during the investigation to a maximum
- - depth of 35 feet below grade. Locations of the soil borings are shown in Drawing No. 2. Chemical
analysis of the soil samples obtained revealed petroleum constituents to be present to depths in excess of
35 feet below grade. Results of the chemical analysis are summarized in Table II.

During a meeting held at the Kern County Health Department offices on December 12, 1986, the
findings of the preliminary site characterization investigation were discussed by all involved parties. It
was decided at that meeting that further investigation would be required.
A second workplan was submitted for a Phase II site characterization investigation at the project
site. Drilling and sampling of the second phase commenced on January 19, 1987. Four additional soil
borings were advanced to a maximum depth of 100 feet below grade. The results of that investigation
showed fuel constituents in concentrations up to 2641.87 parts per million (,ppm) total volatile
hydrocarbons. Contamination extended to a maximum depth of 80 feet below existing grade and was also
shown to be laterally dispersed. Results of that sampling are presented in Table III:

Based on the results of the additional investigation, the Kern County El-ID requested that a five
year soil vapor monitoring program be implemented. The first annual vapor monitoring, which was
conducted on July 1, 1989, consisted of installing a soil vapor monitoring well and advancing two
additional borings. The soil vapor monitoring well was installed to a depth of 110 feet below grade with
the bottom 10 feet being the screened interval. The two additional borings were advanced to a maximum
depth of 80 feet. For the locations of the soil vapor monitoring well and the two additional borings,
-- please refer to Drawing No. 2. Soil samples collected from the two borings and the soil vapor
monitoring well were analyzed for petroleum constituents. The results of the chemical analysis are
· presented in Table IV as follows.

First Annual Monitoring
On July 1, 1989, the vadose well installed during our investigation (VMWA) was inspected. The
locked well head and locking cap assembly appeared to be in excellent condition.
Following inspection, the purge cap assembly was installed onto the PVC casing. The purge cap
assembly consisted of a PVC slip cap, a seal, a brass nipple to connect the vapor extraction tubing and
numerous metal and rubber washers.

The cleaned and calibrated H-nu brand PID was zeroed to the ambient air and was attached to
new sA inch Tygon® tubing. The PID registered a reading of 0.5 parts per million (ppm), and was re-
zeroed with the tubing attached.
A Cole-Parmer Model No. DOA-P104B-AA pump was attached to the Tygon® tubing which in
turn was attached to the purge cap assembly. The well was then purged of two casing volumes of air
(approximately 15-19 minutes). Following purging, a sample of the soil vapor was trapped in the tubing
near the cap assembly and drawn through the PID. The sample of the soil vapor was obtained from the
tubing on the suction side of the pump so that the vapor would not be influenced by the pump itself.
This process was performed twice with the PID being re-zeroed between uses. The results of the
PID vadose readings are detailed in Table V below.

Based on the results of the June and July, 1989 sampling, the following conclusions were derived:
1. Petroleum constituents related to a subsurface release of fuel constituents
were present in the subsoils beneath the former tank excavation to a
depth of approximately 95 feet below grade.
2. Concentrations of petroleum constituents in the soils beneath the former
tank excavation appear to be degrading with time.
KRAZAN & ASSOCIATES, INC.
Project No. E88-107

_ 3. No significant concentration of petroleum constituents appear to be
present in the soil vapor of VMWA at a depth of 100-110 feet below
grade.
4. No appreciable lateral migration appears to have taken place beneath the
site.
5. Groundwater (including perched water) was not encountered in any of
our borings.
6. According to historic data, groundwater beneath the subject property
exists at a depth of approximately 200 feet below grade.
7. It appeared highly unlikely that petroleum constituents related to the
subsurface storage of fuels at this site have/will impact groundwater
resources from this current location and depth due to the present of a
dominant silt layer and the buffer zone of approximately 105 vertical
feet.
8. Annual monitoring of the vadose monitoring well (possibly including the
analysis of Tedlar® bag samples) will be conducted annually. In the
event that vertical migration does take place near the former tank
excavation, it is very likely that the movement would be detected.
Annual Monitoring
Prior to each vapor sampling, the vadose well installed during our 1989 investigation (VMWA)
was inspected. The locked well head and locking cap assembly appeared to be in excellent condition.
Following each inspection, the purge cap assembly was installed onto the PVC casing. The purge
cap assembly consisted of a PVC slip cap, a seal, a brass nipple to connect the vapor extraction tubing
and numerous metal and rubber washers.
Both a Photovac brand and a H-nu brand portable photoionization detector (PID) were used to
monitoring the vapor extracted from the well. Both PID's are direct reading real-time analyzers that are
capable of detecting most of the volatile hydrocarbon constituents present in the vapor phase of

petroleum-affected soils. The cleaned and calibrated PID's were zeroed to the ambient air and were
attached to new 'A inch Tygon® tubing. Each PID was then re-zeroed with tubing attached.
A Cole-Parmer Model No. DOA-P104B-AA pump was attached to the Tygon® tubing which in
turn was attached to the purge cap assembly. The well was then purged of two casing volumes of air
(approximately 15 to 19 minutes). Following purging, a sample of the soil vapor was drawn through a
PID. The sample of the soil vapor was obtained from the tubing on the suction side of the pump so that
the vapor would not be influenced by the pump itself.
This process was performed two to three times during each monitoring interval. The results of
the PID vadose readings are detailed in Table VI as follows.

different than those obtained from the first annual monitoring in July of 1989.
Based on data obtained during our fist, second, and third annual soil vapor monitoring program
and data obtained from previous investigations, the following conclusion was detailed in our April 27,
1992 report.
As evidenced by the apparently insignificant difference in concentrations
between the first, second, and third annual monitoring of the vadose zone
well, it appears that vertical migration of petroleum constituents has not
occurred at the location of our vapor monitoring well.
FIFTH ANNUAL MONITORING
In March 1994, Krazan & Associates, Inc. received approval to proceed with the fifth annual soil
vapor monitoring. The results of this investigation are detailed in this report as follows.
Purpose of Thls Investigation
The purpose of this investigation was to determined if vertical migration of the petroleum
constituents has occurred, thereby assessing any potential threat to groundwater resources.
Scope of This Investi~,ation
The scope of this investigation was limited to the field screening of an air sample from within
the existing vadose monitoring well MW-A.
Findings of Investigation
On April 5, 1994, the vadose well installed during our 1989 investigation (VMWA) was
inspected. The locked well head and locking cap assembly appeared to be in good condition.
Following inspection, the purge cap assembly was installed onto the PVC casing. The purge cap
assembly consisted of a PVC slip cap, a seal, a brass nipple to connect the vapor extraction tubing and
numerous metal and rubber washers.
A Photovac brand PID was used to monitor the vapor extracted from the well. The PID is a
direct reading real-time analyzer that is capable of detecting most of the volatile hydrocarbon constituents
present in the vapor phase of petroleum-affected soils. The cleaned and calibrated PID was zeroed to the

ambient air and was attached to new ~A inch Tygon ® tubing. The PID was then re-zeroed with tubing
attached.
A Cole-Panner Model No. DOA-P104B-AA pump was attached to the Tygon® tubing which in
turn was attached to the purge cap assembly. The well was then purged to two casing volumes of air
(approximately 15 to 19 minutes). Following purging, a sample of the soil vapor was drawn through a
PID. The sample of the soil vapor was obtained from the tubing on the suction side of the pump so that
- - the vapor would not be influenced by the pump itself.
This process was performed two times. The results of the PID vadose reading are detailed in

DISCUSSION OF FINDINGS
Soil concentrations (as indicated by the PID) exhibit trace concentrations of volatile compounds
with ionization potentials within the range of the PID (< 10.2 e.v.). These concentrations are anticipated
to be associated with ambient (background) concentrations or moisture within the soil vapor. In addition,
these concentrations do not appear to be significantly different than those obtained from the first, second,
and third annual vapor monitoring in July of 1989, March of 1991, and March of 1992.

. _ CONCLUSIONS
Based on data obtained during our first, second, third, fourth, and fifth annual soil vapor
monitoring program and data obtained from previous investigations, the following conclusion has been
derived:
- - · As evidenced by the apparently insignificant difference in concentrations
between the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth annual monitoring of
the vadose zone well, it appears that vertical migration of petroleum
; constituents has not occurred at the location of our vapor monitoring
well.
LIMITATIONS
The findings of this report were based upon the results of our field and laboratory investigations,
coupled with the interpretation of subsurface conditions associated with our soil borings and vapor
monitoring well. Also incorporated was the interpretation of previous investigations in the vicinity.
Therefore, the data are accurate only to the degree implied by review of the data obtained and by
professional interpretation.
The exploratory soil borings and vapor monitoring wells were located in the field by review of
available maps and by pacing or tape measurements from existing landmarks. Therefore, the soil borings
locations should be considered accurate only to the degree implied by the methods used to locate them.
Chemical testing was done by a laboratory approved by the State of California Department of
Health Services. The results of the chemical testing are accurate only to the degree of care of ensuring
the testing accuracy and the representative nature of the soil samples obtained.
The findings presented herewith are based on professional interpretation using state of the art
methods and equipment and a degree of conservatism deemed proper as of this report date. It is not
warranted that such data cannot be superseded by future geotechnical, environmental, or technical
developments.
Our investigation and report were prepared for the exclusive use of our client who authorized this

RE: Monitoring of Soil Contamination Migration
Dear Mr. Paulsen:
During a recent review of your file it was discovered that closure of the subsurface
investigation being performed at the Crystal Geyser Facility, located at 1233 California
Avenue, in Bakersfield, California, may be possible.
Our review of the most recent sampling performed on March 28, 1991, has
determined that migration of subsurface contamination is negligible. However, the location
of the one vapor monitoring well and method of ~lmr monitoring to determine migration
is not an accurate representation of site conditions.
It is this Department's position that closure of the subsurface investigation may be
accomplished by performing confirmation boring in the most highly contaminated areas
found after removal of the tanks. By comparing the site characterization data gathered in
1986 with that generated by suggested boring, it is believed that significant reduction and/or
minimal contaminant migration will be 'observed.
Should you have any questions regarding the above subject matter, or would like to
discuss the project further, I may be contacted at (805) 861-3636, Extension 588.

SCOPE OF THIS INVESTIGATION
The scope of this investigation would be limited to the advancement of a
soil boring within the backfilled tank excavation for the purpose of soil
sampling and installation of a vadose monitoring well for monitoring over a five
year period. An additional boring would be advanced at a location beyond that
which was previously identified as the fringe of the plume for the purpose of
determining if any lateral migration of contaminants has occurred in that
direction.

RE: Calvin Cooler Bottling Plant
1233 California Avenue, Bakersfield, California
Dear Mr. Dart:
This is to comment on and recommend changes to the September
6, !988 proposal ~or monitoring the contaminant plume migration at
Calvin Cooler Bottling Plant. There are two points we must
address:
1. The plan does not address lateral movement of the plume.
The department would like to see at least one or more
borings beyond the edge o~ the plume to see whether
lateral migration nas occurred.
2. Please note the vadose zone monitoring well must have a
~est hole permit before work begins. An application is
enclosed with this letter. The oermit fee is $335.00 per
monitoring well, and will require construction
inspection.
Please submit an addendum to the September 6, 1988 proposal
wnlch addresses monitoring the lateral plume migration. You may
submit the monitoring well application whenever it is ready;
however, no work may begin until the entire proposal is approved.
Should you have any questions regarding this matter, feel free to
call me at (805~) 861-3636.

RE: Site Contamination and Remediation, Victori Wines
Dear Mr. Manns:
This is to render a decision on the latest results of the site
investigation and remediation proposal for your facility on East
California Avenue.
Based on review of the Phase II site characterization report
dated February 27, 1987 and conversations with Jeff Palmer of
Krazan and Associates, mitigation alternative #1 has been accepted
by this department.
The latest findings indicate the maximum vertical extent of
contamination has been found. The lateral extent of the plume has
been defined for our needs to the south and west sides of the
contaminated area at this time. The area of contamination is
surrounded on three sides by paved roads to the north, east and
south. Based on the environmental assessment contractor's
professional opinion and the investigation results, it is
considered highly unlikely the contamination has migrated
laterally beyond those roads. There is no apparent driving force.
in those areas to cause downward percolation deeper than the
deepest contamination discovered on site. That depth was
discovered almost directly beneath the original tank hole. The
nearest buildings appear out of range of the maximum expected
lateral migration at this time. Based on the groundwater depth,
it also appears there is no immediate threat to groundwater.

The above information /ed the department to accept alternative
#1, with one · change. The vadose wells do not need to be
installed. However, one year from now you must perform further
drilling to determine' if the plume has migrated any further
vertically or laterally. At that time you must submit a new
proposal for the department's approval prior to beginning work.
Should you have any questions regarding this decision or these
instructions, please call me at (805) 861-3636.

Dear Sir:
This letter is to confirm earlier agreements with this
department concerning the leak investigation at your facility.
The paving over of the tank hole and surrounding area with
asphalt may proceed at any time. Krazan and Associates have
confirmed that they have reliable bearings to continue accurate
drilling and site characterization.
After reviewing the Phase II site characterization proposal
from Krazan and Associates, the plan appears acceptable to this
department with the following changes:
1. The chemical analysis include some representative analyses
for EDB along with the constituents already mentioned in
the proposal; and
2. In the event groundwater is encountered while boring, the
environmental assessment contractor retreat from the
saturated, zone and seal the boring with bentonite. If
groundwater monitoring is desired, the contractor must
apply for a groundwater monitoring well permit with this
department.
The above changes were discussed with Jeff Palmer of Krazan
and Associates on January 8, 1987. He saw no problem in
complying with the changes. If there are any questions regarding
this matter, do not hesitate to call me at (805) 861-3636.

RE: Site Characterization Proposal
· Victori Wines, California & Lakeview Avenues
Bakersfield, California
Gentlemen;
It is understood that you have recently removed 5 steel underground fuel
storage tanks and associated piping from the above-referenced project site. At
your request, our firm conducted soil sampling from beneath the tank at the
time of removal. Chemical analysis of those soil samples was conducted by B.C.
Laboratories in Bakersfield, California. The results of that testing appear to
indicated the presence of gasoline constituents beneath some of the tanks which
were removed.
The results of the chemical analysis of the soil samples were presented to
representatives of the Kern County Health Department at a meeting at the
project site on October 29, 1986. Representatives of Bone & Sons Construction,
Krazan & Associa.tes, Inc. and Victori Wines were in attendance at this meeting.
Mr. Bill Scheide of the Kern County Health Department requested a site
characterization proposal be submitted at that time.
Based on this background information, the following site characterization
proposal has been developed.

Page No.2'
Proj. No. B86-121
SITE HISTORY
It is understood that the project site had previously been used as a
gasoline service station. However, very little information regarding the previous
use of the project site has been available. There is no accurate estimate for the
age of the tanks removed, which were in very poor condition.
According to the Kern County Water Agency map entitled "Depth to
Ground Water, Unconfined and Equivalent Wells Used In Control, Spring 1985"s
that the ground water beneath the site is approximately 250 feet below existing
grade.
SOILS SAMPLING & FIELD INVESTIGATION
The following is an outline of the proposed field investigation to be done
in the phase:
1. Drilling will occur in the excavation, commencing on the floor
of the excavation. These soil borings are contingent on
accessibility and safety restrictions.
2. Exploratory soil borings would be placed through each area
where previous results indicated soil contamination.
3. Each of these primary borings would be advanced to a depth of
20 feet, as measured from the bottom of the excavation. These
borings will be used to help determine the vertical extent of
contamination.
#. Soil samples would be obtained at 5 foot intervals,
commencing at ~ feet.
KRAZAN & ASSOCIATES, INC.
Page No.3.
Proj. No. B86-121
2. Dependant on field screening of these field samples~ three
additional borings would be placed at the perimeter of the
excavation to help determine the lateral migration of
contamination. These boring would be advanced from the existing
grade to a depth of 30 feet.
6. Selected samples from the boring would be analyzed for
Benzene, Toluene and Xylenes in accordance with EPA test
method 8020. Samples would also be analyzed for Total
Hydrocarbons, and where appropriate, oil and grease.
7. Ground water sampling is not anticipated in the phase of the
investigation.
8. A report would be prepared presenting the results of all the
work accomplished in this phase, including a plot plan showing all
areas of exploration and testing.
Please refer to the site plan for proposed boring locations.
Any subsequent drilling will be conducted on a time and materials basis at
the request of the owner. This estimate does not include the cost for disposal
of the drilling returns if needed.
If there are any questions or if we can be of further assistance, please do
not hesitate to contact our office.

RE: Phase II Site Characterization
Victori Wines Facility
California and Lakeview Avenues
Bakersfield, California
Gentlemen,
In accordance with your authorization, we have completed our Phase II site
characterization investigation for the above-referenced property. This report
was requested by the Kern County Health Department after a preliminary site
characterization which was conducted did not adequately reveal the extent of
contamination noted after underground tank removal at the subject property.
SITE HISTORY
The subject property is currently developed with the Victori Wines facility,
which is located at the south west corner of California and Lakeview Avenues
in Bakersfield, California.
On September 17, 1986, five underground storage tanks were removed from
the project site. Samples were obtained from beneath the tanks by Krazan and
Associates, Inc. personnel upon the tank removal in accordance with Kern
County Health Department guidelines. Chemical analysis of the soil samples
revealed contamination by petroleum constituents. Additionally,' one of the tanks
which was removed contained what was described as a drilling fluid or "mud".
Upon Kern County Health Departments review of the chemical analysis of
samples obtained during the tank removal, a preliminary site characterization

was requested. Krazan and Associates Inc. was retained to perform the
preliminary site characterization.
A proposal was submitted to the Kern County Health Department for the
preliminary site characterization~ and was accepted. The results of the
preliminary site characterization revealed contamination at depths explored. The
field exploration was terminated at an approximate depth of 50 feet due to the
limitations of the proposal~ which was submitted to-and accepted by the Kern
County Health Department.
During a meeting held at the Kern County Health Department offices on
December 12, 1986, the findings of the preliminary site characterization
investigation were discussed by all involved parties. It was decided at that
meeting that further investigation would be required.
A second proposal was submitted for a Phase II site characterization
investigation at the project site. Drilling and sampling of the second phase
commenced on 3anuary 19~ 1987. The results of that investigation are presented
in this report.
SCOPE AND METHODOLOGY
The scope of this investigation was to more adequately define academic
boundaries to the limits of contamination associated with the underground tanks
removed from the project site. These boundaries were ascribed by drilling and
samplin9 soils in the area adjacent to the area where underground tanks had
been buried. Chemical analysis of the samples obtained reflected trends of
vertical and horizontal movement of contaminants and their relative
concentrations in differing soil types. Additionally, once the academic
boundaries had been established for the area of contamination, assessment of
the potential impact of contamination on ground water resources as well as
possible mitigating or remedial alternatives would be discussed.
In order to investigate these potentials, the following methods were
employed:

Proj. No. B86-121
1. A total of four exploratory soil borings were advanced to a
maximum depth: of 100 feet at the project site. These borings were
placed in areas'around the previous underground tank burial location.
2. One boring was advanced through the tank backfill area in
approximately the same location as the primary boring in our
preliminary site characterization. The soil boring was advanced to a
maximum depth of 100 feet below existing grade. Sampling at the
location commenced at an approximate depth of 50 feet below grade.
The depth corresponds to the depth which sampling was terminated
in our previous boring. The boring was used to help ascribe
boundaries to the vertical movement of contaminants.
3. A second boring was advanced to an approximate depth of 60 feet
below existing grade. The boring was placed approximately 45 feet
west/northwest from the first boring. When contamination was still
noted at a depth of 60 feet by field screening~ the borin9 was
terminated and moved ab'out 25 feet further west/northwest. The
boring was used to help ascribe boundaries to the lateral movement
of contaminants.
~,. A third boring was placed approximately 130 feet south of the
first boring, and advanced to an approximate depth of 60 feet below
existing grade. The boring was used to help ascribe boundaries to
the lateral movement of contaminants.
5. A fourth boring was placed approximately ?0 feet west/northwest
from the second exploratory soil boring~ and was advanced to an
approximate depth of 60 feet. The boring was used to help ascribe
boundaries to the lateral movement of contaminants.
6. All soil borings were sampled at 5 foot intervals.
KRAZAN & ASSOCIATES, INC.

Proj. No. B86-121
7. Samples and auger cuttings were field screened with a
photoionization detector, capable of detecting very low levels of
volatile hydrocarbons (reference to benzene) as trace gas.
8. Exploratory soil borings were made by means of hollow stem flight
auger.
9. Discreet samples were obtained by means of pushing stainless
steel tubes (Test Method ASTM D-i587-86, "Thin Walled Tube
Sampling of 5oils").
10. Chemical analysis of selected soil samples was conducted by B.C.
Laboratories in Bakersfield, California. Analysis was conducted to
detect presence of Benzene, Toluene, Xylenes, Ethylenedibromide
and Total Volatile Hydrocarbons.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The project site is a commercial facility located at the southwest corner
of California and Lakeview Avenues in 'Bakersfield, California. The area under
investigation is the easternmost portion of the property where underground
tanks were buried in what is now a paved parking area. Adjacent, and to the
west of the parking area is a recently constructed warehouse facility and
loading dock. The project site was fenced at the time of our investigation.
Please refer to the site plan included at the end of the text.
SOIL PROFILE AND SUBSURFACE CONDITIONS
A total of z~ exploratory soil borings were advanced to a maximum depth
of 100 feet at the project site. The soils profile at the project site generally
consists of silt from the surface elevation to an approximate depth of 3 feet.
From approximately 3 to 20 feet, interbedded lenses of fine to medium grained
sand, silty sands and silt were noted. From approximately 20 to 25 feet, a fine

to medium grained sand was encountered. From the 25 foot depth to about 50
feet, silt with occasional lenses of very fine sands were noted. Below 50 feett
silt was encountered to the maximum depth of our exploratory boring which
terminated at 100 feet.
__ In order to more adequately illistrate the subsoils encountered at the
project site, please refer to the cross section profile identified as Figure No. l.

LABORATORY TEST RESULTS
During the course of our field investigation, fuel aroma was noted in some
samples obtained as well as some of the auger cutting returns.
Samples obtained from the exploratory soil borings were analyzed for the
presence of Benzene, Toluene, Xylenes, Ethylenedibromide, Oil and Grease, and
Total Volatile Hydrocarbons. The results of the chemical analysis is summarized

DISCUSSION OF FINDINGS
The initial series of exploratory soil borings advanced at the project site
during the preliminary site characterization were placed in such a manner as to
investigate the area of the tank backfill and the area immediately adjacent to
the tank burial site. Additionally~ two peripheral borings were placed away from
the tank burial area to help identify lateral movement of contaminants.
Durin9 the course of the preliminary investigation~ a highly variable soils
profile consisting of interbedded lenses of greater and lesser permeability soils
were noted. This highly variable soil structuring allowed the contaminants to
move in lateral directions as gravity was influencing ils downward movement. It
was also noted from the laboratory analysis that the less permeable soils were
showing higher concentrations of contaminants and the higher permeability soils
showed lesser concentrations of contaminants.
As drilling progressed during this phase of the investigation, silt was
noted Lo generally extend from about 25 feet to the maximum depth of our
boring at 100 feet. Chemical analysis of the samples obtained from the primary
boring have shown that from about the fifty foot depth to 85 feet, attenuation
was evident. This is illustrated on the Table II as follows:

The remaining three borings were used to help ascribe boundaries to the
vertical and horizontal movement of the contaminants at the project site.
While advancing the second boring of the investigation (B-10), contamination
KRAZAN & ASSOCIATES, INC.
Page No. 8
Proj. No. B86-121
was still noted to exist at an approximat~'' depth of 60 feet. Observing that
levels detected by field screening were low, it was assumed that the borin9 was
near the edge of the plume. Therefore, the boring was then moved one-half the
distance to an adjacent structure and one-half the distance remaining to the
property line from the boring location. The ultimate distance moved was about
25 feet. This boring was advanced to a maximum depth of 60 feet. Samples
obtained from the /40 to 60 foot depths shOwed none-detected levels of
contamination. In our opinion, this boring is at the outer limit of the lateral
extent of the contamination to the west and north of the area investigated.
Boring No. B-il was advanced to the south/southeast of the primary
borin9 and was utilized to help identify a boundary for lateral movement to the
east and south of the source of contamination. This boring was advanced to a
maximum depth of 60 feet. Samples obtained form the /40 to 60 foot depths were
analyzed for the presence of constituents of gasoline. The results of the
analysis on those samples shows only trace levels of contamination present at /40
and 50 feet, and none-detected at a depth of 60 feet. This data would tend to
suggest that attenuation had occurred between 50 and 60 feet below grade. In
our opinion, the location of the B-~I~I exploratory boring was at the south/south
east limit of the contaminated area.
Please refer to Figure 2 of this report for illustration of ascribed
boundaries of detected contaminants within the area investigated.
REMEDIAL & MITIGATING ALTERNATIVES
The area investigated has provided data which was utilized to help
identify academic boundaries to a rather disuniform area of contaminated soils.
Additionally, the subsoils encountered were highly variable to an approximate
depth of 40 feet, where the soils encountered then became predominately silts.
Those subsurface conditions and review of the results of chemical analysis of
soil samples have lead to what is interpreted to be boundaries of the area of
contamination. Those boundaries were used as a guide to interpret depths and
volumes of the soils affected at the project site.
'Although there are some alternatives available for the mitigation and
remediation of the project site, numerous factors influence the selection of

viable alternatives. Some of those factors are depth to ground water, thickness
of uncontaminated unsaturated zone remaining, types of contaminants, access to
the area affected, area on site for in-place treatment equipment, disruption of
business, cost of treatment or mitigation, cost effectiveness of each alternative
and continuation or maintenance costs.
Based on the review of these and other factors, the following possible
alternatives have been considered:
MITIGATION
Alternative I
A mitigating measure which would seem most applicable at the project
site apparantly has already been effected. The measure taken was to pave over
or cap the project site in order to precluded contaminant movement any further
by means of liquid infiltration. By covering the site with an impermeable layer,
surface infiltration is greatly reduced or stopped, therefore generally
eleminating infiltration by liquid as a transport mechanism.
With the point source of contamination removed and the surface paved,
the likelyhood of radical movement of existing contaminants is very iow.
In this alternative, the installation of a vadose zone monitoring system
at depths below the contaminated soils would provide an adequate mechanism
for detection of future movement of contaminants in the subsoils.
Given the depth to ground water beneath the site, this alternative would
allow the residual contamination in the soil to remain in place. Surface
infiltration would be precluded by pavement and any movement of contaminants
could be detected by monitoring the vadose zone wells.
The cost of the mitigating alternative would be relatively low, although
there would be long term maintenance costs. Additionally, the mitigation does
not preclude the eventual possibility of some remediation. The long term
financial impact for an alternative of this nature could be difficult to calculate
as the variables being monitored affect the contamination's ultimate fate.

Alternative 2
In consideration of the type of contamination and the area involved, a
vapor management system would appear viable. The vapor management system
generally consists of a well or wells to sparge (inject) air vapor into the
subsoils, and a well or wells to extract and scrub vapors from subsoils. The
function of the system is to provide more oxygen in the subsoils to help
increase efficiency of volatilization of hydrocarbons, while providing conditions
which promote aerobic and microbial degradation. Additionally, the system helps
to minimize the accumulation of volatile vapors beneath pavements and
structures.
The cost of installation, operation and maintenance of this type of
system is moderate to high. The Ion9 term financial impact of operation and
maintenance of a system of this variety is not yet know, as there would be
additional site-specific work necessary to establish design parameters. The
overall long term financial impact to the site would be calculable to the degree
of efficiency achieved by the overall remedial effort.
Alternative
Another alternative for the project site would be that of a bioreactive
or enhanced biodegradation system. The principal by which the bioreactive
systems function is one of providing an environment for increasing the microbial
population to a level where degradation of hydrocarbons in the soil is
accomplished by bacteria feeding on the contaminants. This alternative would
also re. quire additional site specific work to determine the amount of nutrients
necessary to affect degradation, subsoils permeabilty, method of injection,
ongoing subsurface monitoring and other pertinent data necessary to design the
system. The cost of a remedial effort of this kind would be moderate to high,
with some consideration to on-going maintenance and analytical costs. The long
term financial impact would be calculable only after the design of the system.

Any of the remedial alternatives presented have limitations. Remedial
]imitations include the review and approval of the Air Resources Control Board
(Vapor Management) or Regions] Water Quality Control Board (Bioreactive)
prior to permitting required to commence with treatment on-site. Also, the long
term maintenance and operation of such systems requires consideration.
The alternatives presented reflect the technology currently available for
the conditions encountered at the project site. Other alternatives may be
available; however, the alternatives presented reflect the opinion of the authors
based on review of available data obtained from drilling, sampling, site
observation, proposed site use, results of chemical analysis, depth to ground
water and subsurface conditions.
