Update or Other Action |
After talking to the former PM, Rene Evans, the file was reviewed. I called Paul Enriquez, AIG, to discuss the site. He is working for Wards Cove and trying to come up to speed on the facility. It appears that due to the PRPs (Chevron, Delta Western, Wards Cove) not finalizing who is responsible for what, the assessment plan approved in 2001 was not implemented. He will be contacting all the parties and sorting this out so that the additional assessment is conducted and the Department can reach a risk management decision. |

Site Characterization Workplan Approved |
Reviewed Soil Boring Work Plan and Sampling and Analysis Plan for Delta Western Naknek Tank Farm. 14 boreholes will be advanced and sampled to further delineate the vertical and horizontal extent of contamination at the tank farm and on the adjacent Trident cannery property. If encountered, groundwater will be sampled and the Trident building will be evaluated for potential vapor intrusion. The base of the bluff will be inspected at low tide for seeps, which will be sampled if present. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
Reviewed Delta Western Naknek Report. 13 boreholes were advanced and sampled in the area impacted by the 2010 spill in an effort to delineate the extent of contamination and evaluate migration to groundwater. Soil samples collected from boreholes contained DRO up to 10,000 mg/kg in a sample collected 4 feet bgs from borehole 8. Soil sampling indicated that impacts from the spill are generally limited to the top 12-15 feet of soil, with concentrations below migration to groundwater cleanup levels in the deeper intervals sampled. Groundwater was not encountered to a depth of 29 feet bgs. Delineation is incomplete to the east of the spill area. The report notes that the adjacent Trident Cannery building is constructed on pilings, suggesting the vapor intrusion pathway is incomplete. An inspection was conducted at the base of the bluff below the spill area near the Naknek River. No seeps or evidence of contamination was noted. |

Spill Transferred from Prevention Preparedness and Response Program |
Spill transferred by PERP staff Neil Huddleston. Spill no. 10269936101; spill date = 12/27/10; substance = diesel; quantity = 200 to 1,000 gallons (RP estimate); source = aboveground 2-inch service pipe connected to a 10,000- and 12,000-gallon AST, adjacent to a fence between the Delta Western facility and the Trident Seafoods plant on the eastern boundary. Description: The tanks store fuel that Trident purchased from Delta Western which is fed through the service pipe to power generating equipment at the Trident plant. The spill resulted from the failure of a gasket on the upstream flange of a closed valve. The pipe and tanks are located outside the secondary containment dike. |

Reviewed Landfarm Proposal for Delta Western Tank Farm, Naknek. The work plan details the landfarming of approximately 8 cubic yards of petroleum contaminated soil currently in supersacks that was excavated from the 2010 spill area in November, 2012. The landfarm will be constructed on the pad next to the DW tank farm. The landfarm will be constructed with 18 inch berms, a 20-mil liner, and 6 inches of sacrificial material to protect the liner during tilling operations. Soil will be spread to a depth of 6-12 inches, tilled on a weekly basis, and watered and fertilized as needed. |

Reviewed Analytical Sampling Report for Delta Western, Naknek. The objective of the investigation was to delineate the extent of contamination on the adjacent Trident Seafoods property that resulted from the 2010 spill at the Delta Western tank farm. Three boreholes were advanced to a depth of 15 feet bgs. Soil was screened with a PID and two soil samples were collected from each borehole. DRO and RRO were not detected, indicating there was little to no migration of contaminants onto Trident property from the 2010 spill. |

Date of document titled Baseline Site Exploration (August 14, 2015). Activities were performed to assess the possible presence of contamination around an area leased by Delta Western containing a fuel storage facility, truck loading rack, warehouse, shop, and office building. An area of the property currently used for boat storage also was explored. This report documents the performed soil and groundwater exploration at the subject property. Results of the investigation revealed minimal contamination in the downgradient monitoring wells. Well GL-MW02 exhibited a level of benzene slightly above ADEC Table C GCLs. |

Update or Other Action |
Completed a historical review and closure evaluation of the Delta Western Tank Farm – Naknek site. Several data gaps were identified during the review process, and this site is not currently eligible for closure. The following data gaps must be addressed before this site could be considered for closure.
• The documented concentration of diesel range organics (DRO) remaining in the surface soils near the bluff, as a result of the December 2010 spill are substantially higher than the ADEC maximum allowable concentration of 12,500 for DRO. Additional sampling in this area must be completed to show the current concentrations.
• Several borings completed in 2012 did not bound the vertical contaminant plume, as evident in Test Holes 3, 5 and 10. Because the extent of soil contamination was not bounded to below migration-to-groundwater cleanup levels, and because of the fluctuating Naknek River tide, ADEC will require a groundwater investigation downgradient of the release area. Additionally, the extent of vertical contamination will need to be delineated.
• Because of the proximity to the Naknek River, the potential for contamination in surface water and the hyporeic zone must be evaluated.

Reviewed the Monitoring Well Installation & Sampling and Analysis Plan, dated January 2017. Proposed activities primarily include: advancing three soil borings, converting two of the borings into monitoring wells, installing one well point at the toe of the river bank, and collecting soil and groundwater samples as appropriate. Additionally, six surface soil samples will be collected from the bluff, from historical sample locations, to monitor for natural attenuation. All soil and water samples will be analyzed for GRO, DRO, RRO, VOCs, and PAHs. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
Reviewed the Soil & Groundwater Sampling Report, dated March 2018. The field effort was completed in May 2017 and consisted of advancing four soil borings, installing two groundwater monitoring wells, installing one well point at the toe of the bluff, and collecting one surface soil sample to determine if attenuation has occurred in surface soils. Samples collected from the deepest interval in each boring were below cleanup levels. Also, the water results from the two groundwater monitoring wells and the well point were below Table C groundwater cleanup levels.
However, the work plan approved in January 2017 explicitly states that three soil borings will be installed and that two of those borings will be completed as monitoring wells. It is inferred in the work plan, as well it was discussed before mobilizing to the site, that at least one well would be installed immediately downgradient of the release area. However, it was decided in the field that only one of the proposed borings would be completed as a well (MW10B). A second unplanned well was also installed roughly 20 feet downgradient of MW10B. Neither of the installed wells are located downgradient of the release area. Although the samples from those wells were clean, former sampling in 2016 completed as part of a separate Phase II had already shown the groundwater in that area to be clean.
Also, the 2017 work plan proposed to install a drive-point well (sentinel well) along the toe of the bluff downgradient of former boring #5 to evaluate if any impacts may exist along the bluff where groundwater and surface water interact. The drive point was instead installed downgradient of Wells MW10B and MW10C, which is not downgradient of the release.
Surface soil impacts remain at the site above human health cleanup levels. This site will not be eligible for closure until a demonstration has been completed to show that there is no unacceptable risk to industrial/commercial site workers or trespassers; and that there is no migration to groundwater risk from leaving the contamination in place. |
