On October 10, 1988 B-C Contracting under contract to Northern Lights Petroleum Equipment, Inc. began demolition of the facilities, removal of above ground and below ground tanks, and excavated 2,800 cubic yards of contaminated soils. Subsurface structure excavation began on 10/18/88. Excavation activity was completed 11/7/88. Perforated ABS drain pipe was installed in selected excavations before backfilling to be used in a possible vapor extraction system. 300 gallons of waste oil was pumped and disposed of by Alaska Pollution Control. Four additional monitoring wells MW5, MW5A, MW6, and MW7. Monitoring well MW7 was the only monitoring well with floating product, it has about 2 feet of product. |

RZA consultants petroleum hydrocarbon assessment. Monitoring wells to the south and west of MW-7 indicate little or no impact from petroleum hydrocarbons. MW-7 has about 3 feet of floating product. Groundwater is about 53 feet below the surface and flows towards the southwest. A perched water tables exist in the northern portion of the site. Laboratory analyses of boring soil samples indicate contamination remains in place. In-situ soil treatment by vapor extraction is recommended. |

Monitoring well MW-7 has about 3 feet of floating product, and as of 4/1/90 approximately 150 gallons of product (gasoline) have been recovered from this well. This is the only monitoring well with floating product for this site. A four inch diameter well MW7A was placed adjacent to the two inch diameter MW7 to increase product recovery. Floating product has not accumulated in MW7A. |

DEC conditionally approves the work plan to install and sample three multilevel soil vapor probes and one monitoring well near the downgradient Flowers International, LLC building. The modification is that the water samples for volatiles for the new monitoring well be collected with a bladder pump as you are doing with the other monitoring wells at the site, and that the soil sample collected from the depth of most likely contamination be analyzed for PAHs. |

On June 2011 three multi-level soil vapor probes were installed within 10 feet of the off-property building located down gradient of the site across the street to the south. Soil vapor probes VP-1 and VP-3 were installed with screen probes centered at 5, 10, and 15 feet below ground surface (bgs). Soil vapor probe VP-2 was installed with screen probes centered at 3.5 to 7.5 feet bgs. On July 21, 2011 the shallow (3.5 to 5 feet bgs) soil gas samples were non-detect for BTEX, naphthalene, and TPH Gasoline. On July 21, 2011 the deep (7.5 to 15 feet bgs) soil gas samples were non-detect for benzene, ethylbenzene, total xylenes, and naphthalene, but had 18 ug/m3 toluene and 530 ug/m3 TPH Gasoline. All were well below ADEC soil gas screening levels. Ambient upwind and downwind air samples were non detect for all analytes.
The proposed off property monitoring well was not installed due to utilities in the area. Soil samples collected during the installation of the soil vapor probes were all below migration to groundwater cleanup levels. |

Each monitoring well was sampled twice: once with no purge (Hydrasleeve), and then after purging (bladder pump). Results of the Hydrasleeve are considered biased low because the water column sampled was not documented and may not have included the top of the water column. Results of the purge samples are considered biased low because the depth of the pump intake was not documented in the field notes. Not possible to fully compare the no purge and purge results because of problems with documenting the intervals sampled. MW-9 had 11.5 ug/l benzene with no purge, but had 593 ug/l with purge. MW-5 had non-detect (<1.0 ug/l) benzene with no purge, but had 260 ug/l with purge. |

Meeting or Teleconference Held |
Meeting with Chevron and their consultants on 2/27/2014. They plan to continue operation of the remediation system and semi-annual groundwater monitoring. Because of problems with last year’s purge/no-purge sampling the next groundwater sampling event they will sample both using no purge and purge help evaluate that the past no purge results were providing comparable data or they will switch to no purge for future sampling events. We discussed that the groundwater samples needs to be collected as close as possible to the soil/water interface, with the pump intake within a foot of the soil/water interface at the time of the sampling. After reviewing the results of the May 2014 groundwater sampling event the consultant may be requesting a reduction in ground water monitoring. They still need a frozen ground soil gas sampling event to help evaluated the vapor intrusion pathway. In the future they will need to evaluate for a diving plume on the monitoring wells far from the release point. The consultant will make sure that their site reports are complete in accordance with DEC’s 9/23/2009 Site Characterization Work Plan and Reporting Guidance for Investigation of Contaminated Sites. |

Contamination concentrations increased in 6 of the 7 monitoring well sampled. Some of the monitoring wells did not have sufficient water to sample. Groundwater flowed toward the southwest. Depth to groundwater was 38.85 to 55.03 feet below ground surface. Each monitoring well was sampled after purging with a bladder pump. Because the pump intake was not in the top foot of the water column at the time of the sampling (it was between 2 to 3 feet) the results may be biased low. Only BTEX results were provided for the VOC analysis. |

ADEC reviewed 2020 groundwater sampling plan and provided the following comments: For all future monitoring events please make sure that the field notes document the measurement of the pump intake that is within the top foot of the water column at the time of the sampling unless the top of the well screened interval is deeper, then in that case from the top foot of that screened interval. For all future monitoring events any monitoring well where BTEX or HVOC sampling is proposed it needs to be the full VOC (method 8260) list, including naphthalene. The field QC samples are per day of sampling at a site. For all future monitoring events all reports be submitted within 60 days of the sampling and the groundwater monitoring figure include a diagram showing historic groundwater flow directions. For all future monitoring events if a monitoring well is low yield and purges dry then a sample will still need to be collected that monitoring event once the monitoring well has recharged to approximately 80% of its pre-purge volume. If it has not returned to 80% of its pre-purged volume during that sampling day DEC requests that you return to the site early the next day to attempt to collect the water sample. |

Third quarter 2019 treatment system report. A total of 25 pounds of hydrocarbons were removed in this quarter by the soil vapor extraction (SVE) system. A total of 13,784 pounds of GRO has been removed since 1990. Compared to recent data, the concentration of GRO was higher than previous sampling events. The system operated 6% of the time this quarter according to hour meter readings; however, this reading is not consistent with field observations and may not be accurate. This discrepancy will be further investigated during the future events. |
