Meeting or Teleconference Held |
Meeting with Chevron and their consultants on 2/27/2014. They plan to continue semi-annual groundwater monitoring. They will submit a work plan for the removal of the soil gas probes. 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. In the future they will need to evaluate for a diving plume on the monitoring wells far from the release point. The consultant will provide more information in their site reports in accordance with DEC’s 9/23/2009 Site Characterization Work Plan and Reporting Guidance for Investigation of Contaminated Sites. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
DEC provided comments on the proposed Soil Vapor Probe Decommission Work Plan for this site.

November 11, 2015 groundwater monitoring event. Up to 0.94 mg/l GRO, non-detect MTBE, and 11.0 ug/l benzene in the groundwater. Contamination concentrations increased in 4 of the 6 monitoring wells sampled. Groundwater flow direction is to the west. Depth to groundwater is 26.03 to 27.36 feet below ground surface. The consultant recommends continued semi-annual groundwater monitoring. After purging the monitoring wells were sampled with a bladder pump within the top foot of the water column as required except for monitoring well MW-11 where it was not documented in the field notes. |

Update or Other Action |
DEC approves suspending, until further notice, the sampling for GRO in monitoring wells 5 & 6. DEC requests that during the next monitoring event that all of the monitoring wells have samples analyzed for the full VOCs (method 8260) and PAHs (method 8270). Based on a review of the results of that sampling further reduction in groundwater monitoring may be approved. |

Update or Other Action |
ADEC requests for this site that the monitoring wells are purged prior to sampling, and that the intake of the bladder pump/in-well pump be documented in the field notes to be within the top foot of the water column at the time of the sampling. Also VOC sampling needs to include the full 8260 VOC list including naphthalene. |

Also all BTEX and VOC sampling needs to include the full 8260 VOC list including naphthalene. ADEC is also requesting that all reports be submitted within 60 days of the sampling and the groundwater monitoring figure include a diagram showing historic groundwater flow directions. ADEC requests that PAH analysis be conducted in all of the monitoring wells to be sampled. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
DEC 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. DEC also requested PAH analysis for all site monitoring wells to be sampled. |
