Leaking Underground Storage Tank Release Confirmed - Petroleum |
ADEC recieved Mammoth of Alaska Mammoth Trucking UST Assessment Report dated December 1991, submitted by Northern testing labs. 5 USTs were removed with about 140 cubic yards of conaminated soil excavated and stockpiled during removal. GRO and BTEX was found in the soil, but extent of contamination was not determined. Halogenated solvents were not analyzed. LUST Site created in CSP for source area ID 77904 ADD; Waste oil, gasoline, diesel contaminants. |

Phase 1 and Phase 2 site assessments were performed in 1994. Six soil borings were sampled from depths between 4 to 25 ft. bgs. Four of the borings were converted into MWs: MW-1, MW-2, MW-3, and MW-4. Surface soil was also analyzed. DRO, GRO, BTEX, and VOCs were found in the subsurface soil in the area of the former USTs. DRO, GRO, and VOCs were detected in GW upgradient and downgradient of the former UST area. MW-1 contained PCE at 0.0121 and MW-3 contained VC at 0.014. VOCs were also detected in the surface soil 200 ft. SE and upgradient of former USTS. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC has reviewed a groundwater monitoring report received on this day. The report indicates that due to the diminished condition of two wells, only 4 of the 6 monitoring wells were sampled during this monitoring event (MW-6, MW-7, CHMWE1, and CHMWE2). Groundwater elevations were surveyed at these locations as well as from RSE-1, RSE-2, RSE-3, and RSE-4 from the adjacent Arctic Cooperage site to determine groundwater gradient. One sample was collected from each well in addition to a duplicate to evaluate for quality control. Each sample was analyzed for GRO, DRO, RRO, and VOCs.
Survey results show groundwater continues to flow south/southeast towards Ship Creek. Analytical results show all samples were non-detect for GRO. Samples from MW-6, MW-7, CHMWE1, and CHMWE2 and a blind duplicate MW-X contained DRO ranging from 1.30 mg/L to 5.15 mg/L. The groundwater cleanup level (GCL) for DRO is 1.5 mg/L. RRO results for samples from MW-6, MW-7, CHMWE-2 and a blind duplicate MW-X ranged from 1.22 mg/L to 6.01 mg/L; all are above the GCL of 1.1 mg/L. All other GRO and RRO results were non-detect or below GCLs.
PCE results for groundwater sample CHMWE1 were 47 ug/L, and above the GCL of 41 ug/L. TCE results for groundwater samples CHMWE2 and its blind duplicate MW-X were 4.39 ug/L and 3.44 ug/L, respectively, above the GCL of 2.8 ug/L. Vinyl chloride results for groundwater samples MW-6, MW-7, CHMWE2 and its blind duplicate MW-X range from 0.483 ug/L to 18.7 ug/L, above the GCL of 0.19 ug/L. All other VOC results were non-detect or below their GCLs.
A trend analysis of current and historic data indicates that VOCs contaminants (PCE, TCE, and Vinyl Chloride) are generally stable or decreasing. Except for CHMWE1, DRO and RRO are generally increasing.

Site Characterization Workplan Approved |
On this date, ADEC reviewed a Groundwater Sampling Work Plan for ARRC Mammoth Alaska in Anchorage, Alaska. The work plan is approved and RSE may proceed with the following two conditions: (1) the GAC will contain PCE, TCE, and vinyl chloride, which are not a petroleum waste. RSE is responsible for proper disposal of the spent carbon at an approved facility. (2) Update table with present day cleanup levels for VOCs in future work plans and reports. |
