No. 0 PROJECT NOTE ON SITE INSPECTION ANALYTICAL RESULTS This report contains analytical results from the site inspection sampling conducted by the Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation on February 28, 1991 at the VI Chemical Site. The organic and inorganic analytical results have undergone data validation by Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation personnel following U.S. EPA Region 2 data validation guidelines. At the time of this report onlythe inorganic data validation review had received U.S. EPA Region 2 final approval. 100274 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 SITE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS The VI Chemical Site is a 3.5-acre facility located in the southwest portion of St.Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. Over half of the facility is covered by buildings and/or process equipment (Ref. No. 12). Figures 1 and 2 provide a Site Location Map and a Site Map, respectively. Elevation of the site ranges from 10 to 40 feet above mean sea level and the topography slopes from south to north with an approximate 10-foot decrease in elevation. An intermittent stream. River Gut, which originates north of the site and discharges to the Caribbean Sea, borders the northern and eastern site boundaries. All surface runoff from the site flows to this gut. The surrounding area is predominantly commercial with five businesses located adjacent to the site and the closest residence located approximately 0.1 milesouth. (Ref. Nos. 1,p. 2; 2, p . l ; 21). The site is listed on the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Information System (CERCLIS) under t w o different names: Island Chemical Corp., EPA I.D. No. VID2a0651095. and VI Chemical, EPA I.D. No. VID988266268. Island Chemical Corp. also has Mc- Kesson Enviro-Systems and Safety Clean listed as aliases (Ref. No. 18). The site property is currently owned by the Charles H. Steffey Holding Corporation. On May 1, 1969 the site was leased to Houston Chemical Industries, who on March 20, 1972 assigned the lease to Caribe Chemical Company, Inc. On June 30, 1978 Caribe Chemical Company, Inc., subsequently known as Pierrel America, Inc., assigned the lease to Cooper Laboratories, Inc. On July 21, 1978, Cooper Laboratories, Inc. incorporated Island Chemical Company as its subsidiary to assume its production activities at the facility. Island Chemical Company took over the lease on October 30, 1979 and on November 1, 1979, Cooper Laboratories sold all of its stock in Island Chemical Company to the predecessor of Berlex Laboratories, Inc. (a subsidiary of Schering-Berlin Inc.). On September 14, 1984, Berlex sold Island Chemical Company assets and assigned the lease to Virgin Island Chemical Company (VI Chemical). VI Chemical is now inactive and attempting to sell its assets and reassign the lease. In 1984, US. Resources and Chemicals, Inc. began leasing a portion of the property from VI Chemical. U.S. Resources then transferred the lease to VIAG Fuels, Inc. (VIAG), who still owns some process equipment on site (Ref. No. 1, pp. 2, 3). VIAG is rebuilding the facility but is not currently in production (Ref. No. 11). No past facility permit history is known. The facility was believed to be used for the manufacture of pharmaceutical chemicals, primarily phenacetin, ethoxyquin, and quinidine, before 1980. Berlex reportedly used the facility to make quinidine gluconate, which was used for the production of quinine. Quinine is used as an anti- malarial agent and for flavoring in carbonated beverages. VI Chemical used the facility to produce benzyl acetate by reacting benzyl chloride with acetic acid. Benzyl acetate is used in perfumes, flavorings, resins, lacquers, polishes, printing inks, and varnish removers. In 1985, VI Chemical also began producing benzyl salicylate which is used as a perfume fixative, solvent for synthetic musk, sun 100275 02-9101-04-SI , , Rev.

All outdoor storage tanks are reported to be empty of raw materials; however, there are conflicting reports as to whether or not one tank may contain an unknown amount of diesel fuel (Ref. Nos. 9,11). Prior to the sale of assets of Island Chemical Company to VI Chemical in October 1984, Enviro-Science, Inc. (ESI) was hired to investigate the site. Three areas of concern were determined during this investigation. Samples collected between September 1984 and March 1986 indicated the presence of various organic compounds, including elevated levels of toluene and pyridine, in on-site soils. All contaminated soil detected by ESI was reported to be either removed or treated on site using biodegradation through soil manipulation (Ref. No. 2, p. 12). Two separate Resource Conservation Recovery Act (RCRA) enforcement inspections were conducted at the site on September 9, 1985 and March 13, 1986 in order to verify the soil remediation and to determine RCRA compliance. Samples were collected on both occasions. The analytical results of these samples indicated the presence of phthalates, benzene, chloroform, and polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) along with cadmium, chromium, and zinc ; however, toluene limits were found to be acceptable. The facility was also found to be not in compliance since it discharged to River Gut without a National Priority Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit (Ref. Nos. 3, 4). On January 31 and February 1, 1989, the U.S. EPA Response and Prevention Branch (RPB) conducted a preliminary assessment, site inspection, and removal site evaluation at VI Chemical. At that time the laboratory/warehouse building was found to contain approximately 400 drums, some being extremely deteriorated, leaking cylinders of chlorine and hydrogen chloride, and over 800 laboratory reagent containers that included sodium metal, potassium cyanide, and ethyl ether (Ref. No. 1). During the Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation (formerly NUS Corp.) Region 2 FIT sampling site inspection on February 28, 1991 the laboratory/warehouse building was not entered; however, a number of overpack drums labeled "hazardous waste" were observed to be staged on the process area concrete pad. These were reported to have been placed there by RPB and are awaiting removal for off-site disposal. Since no other wastes are known to be present on site, there is no longer an imminent threat posed by fire/explosion. There is no imminent threat for direct contact because the site is completely fenced and has security guards present at all times (Ref. No. 9). RPB also collected samples from the on-site well and nearby public supply wells. The analytical results of these samples showed elevated concentrations of chloroform to be present in the groundwater in the area of the site (Ref. No. 23). 100278 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 SITE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS (CONTD) Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation conducted a sampling site inspection at the facility on February 28, 1991, during which six groundwater (collected from taps on the wells), six sediment, and four soil samples were collected. A number of the analytical results from these samples were rejected due to exceeded sample holding times; however, the data does indicate that chloroform was found in higher concentrations in the on-site (31 ug/L) and downgradient wells (12 ug/L) than in the upgradient wells (<10 ug/L). In addition, sediment samples from on-site storm drains indicate elevated levels of various organic and inorganic contaminants; including heavy metals. On-site soil and sediment samples also indicate the presence of a number of pesticides. A HIGHER PRIORITY FOR FURTHER ACTION is recommended for the VI Chemical Site. A release to groundwater from the facility is observed in two public supply wells. The two public supply wells are located within 0.25 mile of the site and seven more are located within 0.5 mile of the site. These wells are part of a mixed system and together they supply approximately 11,500 people. Contaminants found in on-site soil and sediment samples may potentially release to surface water. Such a release could lead to wetland and fishery contamination. 100279 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 SITE ASSESSMENT REPORT: SITE INSPECTION PART I: SITE INFORMATION 1.

During the Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporporation site inspection, approximately 22 drums labelled VIAG Diesel were located near the maintenance building. These drums were all in sound condition and the contents of the drums, if any, are unknown. A number of overpack drums were also observed to be located near the lab/warehouse building. Some of these were labelled Hazardous Waste. All of these drums are in sound condition and have been placed there bv the U.S. EPA until they can be disposed of off site (Ref. No. 9). The production area of the site includes a stainless steel reactor area and a glass reactor area, along with a centrifuge and dryer building. Two generator buildings, cooling towers, t w o 4,000-gallon storage tanks, and a 250,000-gallon water storage tank are located in the southern and southeastern portions of the site (Ref. No. 2). The exact uses of these structures are unknown. There are no known reports of any spills or releases associated with any of these structures. Septic Tanks are used for all sanitary wastes from the facility. No process or laboratory wastes are connected to the septic system (Ref. No. 2; p. 3). There is conflicting reports as to the presence of diesel fuel on site: however, petroleum products are excluded under CERCL/VSARA and will not be evaluated in this report. 14.

Waste Unit __} - Lab/Warehouse Building Source Type Landfill Surface Impoundment Drums Contaminated Soil Pile Land Treatment _X Tanks/Containers (compressed gas containers) Other (Building) Description: The lab/warehouse building was the main building on site. It was used as an office and also housed a storage room, restrooms, a dryer area, and a worker cafeteria along with t w o analytical laboratories and a warehouse. During a U. S. EPA Region 2 Response and Prevention Branch (RPB) site inspection on February 1, 1989, a large number of drums, cylinders, and various laboratory containers were observed to be stored within this building. The condition of these containers was reported to range from fairly sound to extremely deteriorated. The deterioration of the containers was accelerated by flooding of the warehouse floor due to leaks in the roof of the building. The rain water on the floor allowed spilled materials in the building to mix and this accumulation of liquid was eventually discharged to the ground east of the lab/warehouse building. RPB reported the leaking warehouse roof had not affected the lab areas. Hazardous Waste Quantity RPB reported that the warehouse building contained approximately 400 drums, 130 of which were empty, along with several cylinders of gas. The laboratories were reported to have contained over 800 reagent containers. A complete RPB inventory for the building is included in Ref. No. 1. All of the hazardous materials have reportedly been removed from the lab/warehouse building. During the Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation Region 2 FIT Sampling Inspection conducted on February 28, 1991, a number of overpack drums were observed to be outside of the building in the process area. These have been staged by RPB and are awaiting disposal off site. Hazardous Substances/Physical State A number of different hazardous substances were stored in the lab/warehouse building in solid, liquid and gaseous states. Some of the more hazardous materials include chlorine and hydrogen chloride gases, sodium metal, ethyl ether, and potassium cyanide stored near acids. Refer to Ref. No. 1 for a complete inventory of the substances found in the lab/warehouse building. Ref. Nos. 1, pp. 2-4: 5; 9, p. 15 100282 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 PART 11: WASTE SOURCE INFORMATION For each of the waste units identified in Part I, complete the following items. Waste Unit _ 2 - Tank Farm Source Type Landfill Contaminated Sol Surface Impoundment Pile Drums Land Treatment Tanks/Containers Other Description: A tank farm consisting of 14 aboveground tanks exists along the western border of the site. It is reportedthat 20 tanks were orginally present; however, six of these were sold locally during the early 1980s. A 3-(nch steel pipe runs along the rear of the tanks and connects to each of the tanks. There is a gate valve located on the north end of this pipe. The tank farm was used to store bulk raw materials for production. Hazardous Waste Quantity The tanks in the tank farm are reported to have a capacity of 8,000 gallons each. When Island Chemical Company (ICC) took over the facility in 1979, there were 6,900 gallons of xylene in a tank on site which was manifested as hazardous waste and shipped off site for disposal. When ICC shut down the facility in 1982, they reportedly manifested 28,600 gallons of toluene for disposal off site. In January 1989, RPB reported that four tanks were being used by VIAG Fuels, Inc. In 1989, three tanks contained ethanol and one contained diesel fuel while the remaining ten were empty. In 1991, there were conflicting reports stating that one tank may still contain an unknown amount of diesel fuel. The exact contents of these tanks prior to 1989 is unknown. Hazardous Substances/Physical State The tanks were orginally used to store raw materials for the production process. These raw materials included quinine sulfate, toluene, diesel fuel, and methanol. The physical state of material contained in these tanks at anytime would be liquid. Ref. Nos. l.pp. 3-4;2,pp. 3 , 5 : 5 : 9 . p . 15: 11 100283 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 PART II: WASTE SOURCE INFORMATION For each of the waste units identified in Part I, complete the following items. Waste Unit 3 - Process Pit Source Type Landfill Contaminated Soil Surface Impoundment Pile Drums Land Treatment X Tanks/Containers Other Description: Wastewater from cooling during production operations was collected in an underground concrete process pit located beneath the concrete surface near the production area. Any wastes from spills in the process area were collected by concrete channels and also directed to this tank. The water in the tank was sampled to monitor for accidental product release and, if none occurred, was released to River Gut untreated via an underground pipeline composed of 55-gallon drums welded end to end. Any sludge present in the wastewater would settle out in the pit and also in the drainline. The pit was reported to have been cleaned out in 1982 when Beriex shut down operations, with sludge and wastewater being disposed of locally. The pit was cleaned out again in 1985 and subsequently sealed with concrete. The drainline from the pit was excavated by Enviro-Services, Inc. (ESI) in 1985 and was reported to have contained an oil sludge. This material was collected and the drainline was replaced with a 10-inch polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. Hazardous Waste Quantity Available background information is conflicting with reguard to the actual size of the pit, stating that it was 8,000 gallons and 17,000 gallons. The exact amount of waste removed from the pit is unknown; however, ESI reported to have removed thirteen 55-gallon drums of sludge from the excavated drainline. Hazardous Substances/Physical State Analytical data from samples collected by ESI in 1985 of water accumulated in the pit indicated elevated levels of benzyl chloride, zinc, cadmium, chromium, and lead. The physical states of the material found in the process pit and drainline were liquid and sludge. Ref. Nos. 1. pp. 6, 7; 2. pp. 3, 4, 9. 10: 3. p. 3: 4, pp. 2, 3: 5 100284 02-9101-04-SI Rev.

Waste Unit __^ - Lab Pits Source Type Landfill Surface Impoundment Drums Tanks/Containers Contaminated Soil Pile Land Treatment _X Other (Cobble-filled waste pits) Description: Laboratory wastes from both laboratories drained to a cobble-filled pit located below the concrete loading dock area west of the warehouse portion of the building. This pit was connected to a second cobble-filled pit near the fence by a 4-inch PVC pipe. Originally, laboratory drains were reported to flow directly from the building to the first pit, which at that time was an open pit. During the rainy season, this pit would fill with water and overflow to River Gut. Later, the pit was filled and the area was covered with concrete for use as a loading dock. It is unknown as to exactly how the laboratory drain was redirected to the pit near the fence.. Figure 9 in Ref. No. 2 provides a drawing of the laboratory drain system. During excavation ESI broke the 4-inch PVC line near the loading dock. Although an immediate odor and readings in excess of 1,000 ppm on a flame ionization detector were detected, the pipe was dry, indicating no recent usage. Hazardous Waste Quantity The size of the pits as well astheamount of waste discharged from the laboratory drain is unknown. Hazardous Substances/Physical State Samples taken during two separate RCRA Enforcement Site Inspections in 1985 and 1986 indicated elevated levels of phthalates, chloroform, benzene, and toluene. The physical state of the waste from the laboratory was liquid. It is unknown if any solid or sludge was discharged from the drain to the pit. Ref.

Waste Unit __5 - Contaminated Soil Source Type Landfill X Contaminated Soil Surface Impoundment Pile Drums Land Treatment Tanks/Containers Other Description: During the ESI site evaluation in September and October of 1984, four areas of soil contamination were detected. Areas of contaminated soil were detected under the concrete pad near the tank farm, between tanks 8 and 9, west of the warehouse near the lab pits, and along the original lab pit drain to River Gut. Contamination was detected from depths of one foot to three feet. ESI reported that all contaminated soil was either removed or treated on site. Hazardous Waste Quantity ESI reported that approximatley 245 pounds of toluene and pyridine were found to be contained in the soil in the areas listed above. A number of other contaminants were detected in these soils. The toluene and pyridine contaminated soil was treated on site. The toluene contaminated soil was placed in a drying oven which volatilized the toluene from the soil. The soil contaminated with pyridine was tilled and rotated daily, which allowed the pyridine to be emitted to the ambient air. In both cases, the contaminant emission was controlled and did not exceed Threshold Limit Values for either substance. ESI also reported that approximately 225 drums of waste and soil containing other contaminants were shipped off site for disposal. Hazardous Substances/Physical State A number of substances were detected in the on-site soils before and after remediation was conducted, including toluene, pyridine, quinidine gluconate, quinine sulfate, fluorethyne, 2-methyl propanol, pentane, 2-methyl-1-heptene, diphenyl methanone, and xylene. The physical state of the wastes in the soil is liquid. Ref. Nos. 2, pp. 6-8 100286 02-9101-04-SI Rev.

Waste Unit 6 - Outdoor Drum Storage Area Source Type Landfill Contaminated Soil Surface Impoundment Pile X Drums Land Treatment Tanks/Containers Other Description: A concrete pad in the northern portion of the site was reported to be used as a raw material storage area during facility operations. The concrete pad measured 50 feet by 20 feet (1,000 ft^ ) and was surrounded by a chain-link fence. It is unknown if the concrete was covered with an impermeable layer or if any berm existed in the storage area during operations. Hazardous Waste Quantity During the RCRA inspection in September 1985, one 55-gallon drum containing approximately 40 gallons of a water/toluene mixture was being stored in the area. The amount of material stored in this area during facility operations is unknown. Hazardous Substances/Physical State A toluene/water mixture was observed in this area during a RCRA inspection in 1985. Other substances that may have been stored here are unknown; however, reported raw materials used at the facility included quinine sulfate, toluene, and methanol. These would have been in a liquid state. Ref. No. 3. p. 5 100287 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 PART SAMPLING RESULTS EXISTING ANALYTICAL DATA The VI Chemical Site and nearby wells have been sampled at various times from 1984 through 1990. Samples have been collected by Enviro-Services, Inc. (ESI), U.S. EPA Environmental Services Division (ESD), U.S. EPA Response and Prevention Branch (RPB), and Weston Region 2 Technical Assistance Team (TAT). The results of these sampling events indicate the following areas of contamination. During a RCRA Enforcement inspection conducted by ESD on September 19, 1985 six composite samples were collected, two from the drying oven area and four from the lab waste drainage area. Samples collected from the drying oven area indicated the presence of toluene (560 micrograms per kilogram [ug/kg]), fluorene (9,200 ug/kg), bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (13,000 ug/kg), benzophenone (15,000,000 ug/kg), and di-n-octyl phthalate. Samples from the lab waste drainage area indicate the presence of toluene (440 ug/kg), bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (51,000 ug/kg), di-n-octyl phthalate (4,200 ug/kg), chloroform, benzene,and d-n-butyl phthalate (75,000 ug/kg) (Ref. No. 3, Table 1). During a second RCRA Enforcement inspection conducted by ESD on March 3, 1986, samples were collected from the lab waste pit area, the lab waste pit seep, the drainage pit discharge, and the on- site well. A sample was also collected from River Gut to serve as a background sample. All samples indicated above background levels of di-n-octyl phthalate (17,000 ug/kg) and the sample collected from the drainage pit discharge indicated above background levels of xylene (470 ug/kg), 1,4, dichlorobenzene (870 ug/kg), 1, 2, dichlorobenzene (2,900 ug/kg), naphthalene (2,100 ug/kg), fluorene (2,000 ug/kg), phenanthrene (2,400 ug/kg), chromium (52 ug/kg), and lead. The on-site well sample indicated that bis(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate and chloroform were present at concentrations of 280 ug/kg and 130 ug/kg, respectively (Ref No. 4, Table 2). ESI sampling results from work conducted at the facility between September 1984 and March 1986 indicated that the soil between tanks 8 and 9 contained 690 parts per million (ppm) of toluene. Samples taken from borings in the loading dock area, which included the laboratory drain area, and surface soil samples from the lab drain discharge pathway to River Gut indicated the presence of pyridine (43,000 parts per billion [ppb]), quinidine gluconate, quinine sulfate, toluene, fluorethyne, 2- methyl propanol, pentane, 2-methyl-1-heptene, diphenyl methanone (64,000 ppb), and xylene (600 ppb). Samples collected from the Gut also revealed the presence of cadmium, chromium, and zinc at concentrations of up to 14 times above background levels (Ref. No.2, pp. 7, 8). Water samples taken by RPB in October and November 1988 and by TAT in January and June 1990 from the on-site well and nearby public supply wells Fairplains Nos. 6, 8, 9 and VIPA Nos. 1 and 2 indicated the presence of chloroform in concentrations ranging from 2 to 75 micrograms per liter (Ref. No. 23). Attached to the Preliminary Assessment Report, which is included as Ref. No. 5, is an inventory of laboratory reagents and drum contents which were found on the site property during a 1989 RPB Emergency Removal Action inspection. SITE INSPECTION RESULTS Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation Region 2 FIT conducted a sampling site inspection of the VI Chemical facility on February 28, 1991. Figure 3 presents a Sample Location Map and Table 1 presents a summary of the analytical results of the samples. The complete data package for the samples collected is presented as Ref No. 16. A number of the results have been rejected since sample holding times were exceeded. These samples are appropriately marked and the site condition has been evaluated on only the remaining data. These data indicate elevated levels of chloroform in the on-site (31 ug/L) and two downgradient wells (12 ug/L). The data also indicate elevated levels of various metals in on-site storm drain sediments and elevated levels of pesticides in on-site soils and storm drain sediments. 100288 Gwe | p \ ? % ; S E D a .

I 00 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No.o PART IV: HAZARD ASSESSMENT GROUNDWATER ROUTE 1. Describe the likelihood of a release of contaminant(s) t o the groundwater as f o l l o w s : observed release, suspected release, or none. Identify contaminants detected or suspected and provide a rationale for attributing them to the site. For observed release, define the supporting analytical evidence. There is an observed release to groundwater from the facility. Chloroform was detected in samples collected by Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation from an on site production well (31 ug/L) and from two downgradient public supply wells (12 ug/L). Chloroform was also detected in an upgradient well, but at a concentration below contract required quantitation limits (CRQL). During the U.S. EPA Response and Prevention Branch Removal Site Evaluation Inspection, a 55-galion drum of chloroform in poor condition was found on site along with 4 liters of chloroform in laboratory reagent containers. Ref. Nos. 1, 16 Describe the aquifer of concern; include information such as depth, thickness, geologic composition, areas of karst terrain, permeability, overlying strata, confining layers, interconnections, discontinuities, depth to water table, groundwater flow direction. The aquifer of concern is the alluvial deposits which mantle much of the area around the site. The alluvium is composed mostly of clay, which has a very low permeability. Interbedded w i t h the clay are thin lenses of sand and gravel ranging in thickness from 2 to 4 feet. The interconnection between these lenses is unknown but the lenses are believed to be isolated and limited. Most groundwater in the alluvium appears to be under partially confined conditions and the thickness of these deposits can reach 100 feet. The alluvium is underlain by limestones, chalks, and marls of the Kingshill Limestone. On-site borings indicate that the upper surface soils consist of stiff silty clay or silty sand with variable amounts of clay to a depth of 2.5 feet. Underlying these surface soils is a medium dense to dense silty sand and gravel or sandy silt layer which merges with sandy silt or silty sand with numerous rock fragments and various sandy clay seams. The lowest soil formation encountered was a medium dense to very dense silty sand which extends to a depth of more than 25 feet. These borings indicated that the hydrostatic water table is approximately 20 feet below the present ground surface; however, this level will fluctuate throughout the year. Groundwater in the area of the site is reported to flow to the southeast. Ref. Nos. 2, 5, 7 Is a designated well head protection area within 4 miles of the site? Well head protection area information is unavailable for the U.S. Virgin Islands. What is the depth from the lowest point of waste disposal/storage to the highest seasonal level of the saturated zone of the aquifer of concern? Analytical data from g r o u n d w a t e r samples collected d u r i n g t h e H a l l i b u r t o n NUS Environmental Corporation sampling inspection indicate that contaminants from the site have migrated to groundwater in the area of the site. Therefore, contaminants from the site are in contact w i t h the aquifer of concern. Ref. Nos. 1, 16 100300 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 What is the permeability value of the least permeable continuous intervening stratum between the ground surface and the aquifer of concern? Silty clay is reported to have a permeability value of approximately 10-5 to 10-7 cm/sec. Ref. No. 8 What is the distance to and depth of the nearest well that is currently used for drinking purposes? The Fairplains No. 9 public supply well is located approximately 500 to 600 feet south of the site. This well is reported to be between 90 to 100 feet deep. Ref. Nos. 9, 10 If a release to groundwater is observed or suspected, determine the number of people that obtain drinking water from wells that are documented or suspected to be located within the contamination boundary of the release. A release to groundwater from the facility is observed. Chloroform was detected in samples collected from two public supply wells located less than 0.25 mile southeast of the site. It has been determined that approximately 2,550 people are supplied by these two wells. Ref. Nos. 16,22 Identify the population served by wells located within 4 miles of the site that draw from the aquifer of concern. Distance Population O - i mi 2,550 > i - i m i 8,910 > i - 1 m i 12,730 > 1 - 2 m i 3,820 > 2 - 3 m i 5,090 > 3 - 4 m i 3,820 There are 31 public supply wells within four miles of the site. The water from these wells, with the exception of two, is all blended into one system which supplies the entire western end of the island of St. Croix. The total population supplied by groundwater is approximately 37,000 people. The two wells not connected to the system supply only the airport and are assumed to supply approximately 100 people; therefore, the total number of people supplied by the blended well system is approximately 36,900. Since all wells are part of a blended system it can be assumed, for purposes of this report, that each well supplies an equal number of people. This number was determined by dividing the total population supplied by groundwater by the number of wells located within 4 miles of the site, thus indicating the number of people supplied by each well within 4 miles of the site. The population supplied by one well was then multiplied by the number of wells per distance ring to determine the total population supplied by wells located within each distance ring (See Ref. No. 22 for calculations). Ref. No. 22 Identify uses of groundwater within 4 miles of the site (i.e. private drinking source, municipal source, commercial, irrigation, unuseable). Public and private drinking wells are located within 4 miles of the site. Groundwater in the area is used as a municipal and private drinking source, for irrigation, and for commercial purposes. Ref. Nos. 7, 10, 19, 20 100301 02-9101-04-SI Rev. No. 0 SURFACE WATER ROUTE 10. Describe the likelihood of a release of contaminant(s) to surface water as follows: observed release, suspected release, or none. Identify contaminants detected or suspected and provide a rationale for attributing them to the site. For observed release, define the supporting analytical evidence. There is a suspected release to surface water from the facility. Sediment samples collected by Halliburton NUS Environmental Corporation from two on-site storm drains indicate the presence of 2-butanone (150 ug/kg), total xylenes (estimated 86 ug/kg), bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (estimated 2,200 ug/kg), 2-methylnaphthalene (estimated 630 ug/kg), chromium (estimated 110 ug/kg), copper (367 ug/kg), lead (465 ug/kg), zinc (estimated 1,710 ug/kg), and estimated concentrations of various pesticides. These on-site storm drains discharge to an intermittent stream, River Gut, which leads to the Caribbean Sea. Lead concentrations found in the downstream sediment sample (15.1mg/kg) are higher than those found in the upstream sediment samples (7.5 mg/kg) Ref. Nos. 2, 16 11. Identify the nearest downslope surface water. If possible, include a description of possible surface drainage patterns from the site. Fair Plain Gut, an intermittent drainage way that retains water due to natural damming from beach sediments, is the nearest downslope surface water. Drainage from the site is along an intermittent stream, River Gut, which is adjacent to the north and east borders of the site River Gut will flow directly into Fair Plain Gut, which empties directly into the Caribbean Sea. Ref. Nos. 13, 14, 21 12. What is the distance to the nearest downslope surface water? Measure the distance along a course that runoff can be expected to follow. The distance from the site, along River Gut, to Fair Plain Gut is approximately 0.5 mile. Ref. No. 21 13. Determine the type of floodplain that the site is located within. There is no known floodplain information for the U.S. Virgin Islands. 14. Identify drinking water intakes in surface waters within 15 miles downstream of the site. For each intake identify: the distance from the point of surface water entry, population served, and stream flow at the intake location. Intake Distance Population Served Flow (cfs) There are no known drinking water intakes located in surface waters within 15 miles downstream of the site. Ref. Nos. 7, 25 15.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY On January 23, 1989, Mr. George Pavlou, Associate Director for Enforcement Programs, formally requested that the Response and ^ Prevention Branch conduct a removal evaluation at the Virgin Island Chemical Company site in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. A preliminary assessment, site inspection and removal site evaluation were conducted on January 31 and February 1, 1989. — Unstable and reactive hazardous materials are present in a building and on the grounds at this inactive chemical plant. Unknown contaminants are migrating off-site into the adjacent soil and potentially the ground water. Hazardous substances present include chlorine and hydrogen chloride, both of which are contained in extremely deteriorated cylinders, sodium metal a water-reactive material posing a threat of fire and potassium cyanide. Other reactive materials include diisobutyl aluminum hydride (a pyrophoric liquid), phosphorus pentoxide, sodium borohydride, sodium hydride and ethyl ether (potentially shock- sensitive) . Five businesses are adjacent to the facility and the St. Croix Prison at Golden Grove is located approximately one-quarter mile downwind from the site. An air release or fire at this chemical plant could adversely affect the prison, businesses and area residents. The proposed removal action will address all above ground containerized materials and is expected to take eight to ten months to complete. The estimated project ceiling is $1,840,000 of which $1,262,000 is for mitigation contracting. 100329 REGION U FORM 1320-1 (9/&5) -2- II. BACKGROUND A. Site Setting/Description The Virgin Island Chemical Company (VIChem) is located on Plot 13Q of Estate Bethlehem Middle Works off of the Melvin Evans Highway (Route 66) in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. Located on the south side of the island near the western end of St. Croix (Figure 1), the 3.5 acre site has a gently rolling topography ranging in elevation from 10 to 30 feet above sea level. The site is bordered on the north by an intermittent stream which originates on the north side of the island and discharges to the Caribbean Sea. Runoff from the site enters this unnamed intermittent stream. The Caribbean climate is typical of the Neotropics. Temperatures vary from TO^-gs* Fahrenheit with a relative humidity in excess of 60%. Winds are fairly constant at 10-2 0 miles per hour and are generally from the eastern quadrant as they pass over the Caribbean Sea. Seasonal rains in winter and summer are commonr Hurricanes and tropical storms may occur at any time during the year, but are more likely during the summer and fall. The surrounding area is predominantly commercial with five businesses adjacent to the site. Downwind, approximately one- quarter mile northwest of the site is the St. Croix Prison at Golden Grove (Figure 1). Several residences are located one- third mile north of the site at Upper Bethlehem and three- quarters of a mile northwest of the site at Golden Grove. South of the site (upwind) is one residence within one-tenth of a mile, a quarry, the Melvin Evans Highway and the Alexander Hamilton Airport. The site property is currently owned by the Charles H. Steffey Holding Corporation. This landowner originally leased the land on a 30 year lease to Houston Chemical Industries on May 1, 1969. On March 20, 1972, Houston Chemical assigned the lease to Caribe Chemical Company, Inc. (subsequently known as Pierrel America, Inc.). On June 30, 1978, Pierrel America assigned the ground lease to Cooper Laboratories, Inc.. On July 21, 1978, Cooper Laboratories incorporated Island Chemical Company as its subsidiary to assume its production activities at the facility. On October 30, 1979, Cooper Laboratories assigned the lease to its subsidiary. Island Chemical Company. On November 1, 1979, Cooper Laboratories sold all of the stock of Island Chemical Company to the predecessor of Berlex Laboratories, Inc. (a subsidiary of Schering-Berlin Inc.). On September 14, 1984, Berlex sold Island Chemical Company assets and assigned the lease to Virgin Island Chemical Company (VIChem). VIChem is currently inactive and attempting to sell company assets and reassign the lease. 100330 -3- Prior to 1980, it is believed that the facility was used for the manufacture of pharmaceutical chemicals, primarily phenacetin, ethoxyquin and quinidine. Berlex reportedly used this facility to make quinidine gluconate used for the production of quinine. Quinine is an antimalarial medicine and flavoring in carbonated beverages. VIChem produced benzyl acetate by reacting benzyl chloride with acetic acid. Benzyl acetate is used in perfumes, flavorings, resins, lacquers, polishes, printing inks and varnish removers. In 1985, VIChem also began producing benzyl salicylate which is used as a perfume fixative, solvent for synthetic musk, sun-screening lotions and soap odorant. In 1984, U.S. Resources and Chemicals, Inc. began leasing a portion of the facility from VIChem, and shortly thereafter started an alcohol dehydration operation. U.S. Resources transferred the lease and operation to VIAG Fuels, Inc. (VIAG). VIAG currently owns the alcohol dehydration process equipment and is presently inactive. According to David Weston, President of VIAG, there is an oral agreement between Chase Manhattan Bank (VIChem's mortgage bank), VIChem and VIAG in which VIAG currently provides site security. Also on-site at the present time is the St. Croix Security Kennels (SCSK). Dog kennels for 20 to 30 guard and attack dogs are present and the Secretary/Treasurer for SCSK lives on-site in a trailer. B. Quantity and Types of Substances Present The VIChem process facility was set up for batch and semi- continuous chemical manufacture. The process area, east of the maintenance and utility building (Figure 2) consists of two open- bay reactor areas and a centrifuge/dryer building. The six reactors are either glass-lined or stainless steel and are agitated, jacketed and have overhead condenser systems. Four of these reactors are also equipped with distillation columns. The ceiitrifuge/dryer building contains various centrifuges, dryers, filters and grinding equipment. During the January 1989 preliminary assessment, inspection of accessible areas of the reactors and the centrifuge/dryer building revealed that they were empty of raw materials and product. West of the main building is the tank farm which contains fourteen 8000 gallon tanks. Four of these tanks contain ethanol and one tank contains diesel fuel owned by VIAG and used to fuel their alcohol dehydration process. The remaining tanks in the tank farm are empty. The main building and warehouse (areas 1,3,4,5 and 6 on Figure 3) contain approximately 400 drums (drum inventory. Table 2). Two hundred of these drums are labeled ethyl alcohol and half of these are empty. The condition of the ethyl alcohol drums varies from fairly sound to extremely deteriorated. Some of the other materials in the warehouse which are in deteriorated or leaking 100331 -4- containers include a cylinder of chlorine, one cylinder of hydrogen chloride, one unlabeled bulging drum, two drums with unknown contents in which a reaction has taken place causing the lids to come off and dispersing a white crystalline material, one drtim of sulfamic acid which is broken and is leaking its contents. The deterioration of these containers has been accelerated by leaks in the warehouse roof, causing portions of the warehouse floor to be flooded after it rains. The accumulation of rain water on the floor allows spilled materials to mix and is eventually discharged to the ground east of the warehouse near the septic tank. The majority of the remaining drums contain flammable, poisonous, combustible or corrosive materials. Although some of these drums are in poor condition, they have not yet been severely impacted by rain water from the leaking roof. The two laboratories within the main building (areas 11,15,18 — and 22 on Figure 3) contain over 800 laboratory reagent containers (lab inventory. Table 1). Some of the more dangerous materials within the labs are: sodium metal (water-reactive), ethyl ether (formation of shock-sensitive peroxides), diisobutyl aluminum hydride (air-reactive), potassiun cyanide stored near acids (hydrogen cyanide air release), phosphorus pentoxide (water-reactive), sodium hydride (water-reactive), sodium borohydride (water-reactive), and approximately 75 unknown materials in reagent-size containers. At the time of EPA's removal site inspection on February 1, 1989, the water from the leaking warehouse roof had not affected the lab areas. According to the June 1978 "Quinidine Sourcing Project" written for Cooper Laboratories and attached as Exhibit B to Civil Action No.' 88-1346-Y "Certification of Michael C. Chester", both di- isobutyl aluminum hydride and sodium metal were necessary for converting cinchona bark into quinidine gluconate. According to Exhibit C of this document, Cooper Laboratories experimented with this process from November 1978 to October 1979. Table 3 lists materials on-site which are CERCLA hazardous substances and the statutory source for this designation. Table 4 lists toxicological effects of some of the compounds found at the site. C. National Priorities List Designation This site is not on the National Priorities List. It has not been submitted for ranking. 100332 -5- III. THREAT A. Threat of Exposure to the Public and the Environment Five categories of threats exist at this site: threat of fire/ explosion, threat of direct contact, threat of an air release from the deteriorated hydrogen chloride and chlorine cylinders, the multiple threats posed by the leaking roof in the warehouse, and the improper storage of reactive hazardous materials at this inactive facility. Neither of the two companies presently operating at the site (SCSK, VIAG) have qualified personnel to safely handle or monitor hazardous materials stored at the facility. The threat of exposure through direct contact, ingestion or inhalation exists for personnel employed by these companies. All personnel have free access to the labs and warehouse area. Tampering with some of the reactive materials or materials in deteriorated containers could result in serious injury or death. Incompatible materials are stored in close proximity in the laboratories and the warehouse. In addition, the potential for adverse reactions is real and will continue to increase as the chemicals age in a hot and humid climate and are subject to persistent winds laden with saline moisture from the Caribbean Sea and rain water from the leaking warehouse roof. At least three examples of reactions taking place are evident in the drum storage area. These consist of one bulging drum and two drums in which an unknown crystalline material has exerted enough pressure to push open the drum lids and dispersed this material to the surrounding floor (photo #16). An unknown lab reagent has leaked its contents within one of the reagent storage closets (photo #10 and #11). During a fire, explosion or air release from VIChem, nearby residences, businesses, the St. Croix prison and people using the Melvin Evans Highway could be severely impacted by toxic-laden smoke or plume. There are three fire departments on St. Croix which would respond to a fire at this facility. Although they have a number of self contained breathing apparatus, the required OSHA training is limited for qualified responders to hazardous material incidents. In addition, there is another exposure pathway for direct contact and ingestion. Groundwater contamination by chloroform has been well documented by EPA for potable wells in the immediate vicinity of the VIChem facility. The March 13, 1986 RCRA Enforcement investigation, conducted by the Surveillance and Monitoring Branch, revealed chloroform contamination in the on-site production well. During March and November 1988, the Response and Prevention Branch conducted well sampling and 100333 -6- analyses at the nearby Fairplains wells. These wells are located between VIChem and the St. Croix prison and are a major source of drinking water on the island. Chloroform contamination was found in Fairplains wells number 6, 8 and 9 in concentrations ranging from 11 ug/l to 75 ug/l (ug/l=micrograms per liter). The Virgin Island Port Authority (VIPA) well number 2 is located approximately one-half mile west of the site and was also contaminated with chloroform at a concentration of 11 ug/l. During the March 1986 RCRA Enforcement investigation, the inspectors observed four empty 55 gallon drums of chloroform. During the Response and Prevention Branch's site investigation in January 1989, one 55 gallon drum and one four liter bottle of chloroform were observed. There are no other known chemical industries in the Upper Bethlehem/Golden Grove area. B. Evidence of Extent of Release The warehouse area of the main building contains several drums which have leaked or are presently leaking. A 55 gallon fiber- drum of sulfamic acid has been extremely deteriorated by the flooding of the warehouse floor from the leaking roof (photo #17). Two unlabeled drums show signs of an uncontrolled reaction and have dispersed some of their contents to the surrounding warehouse floor (photo #16), Bags of tartaric acid have deteriorated and released some of the acid to the floor as well (photo #21). Several unlabeled drums are in such poor condition that any material in them has already been released (photo #19). There may be other releases which have occurred which are not as obvious as those presented in the photodocumentation. Air monitoring in the warehouse area during the initial entry in January 1989 revealed minor elevated readings on the organic vapor analyzer (1 to 2 units above background). No other elevated air monitoring readings were observed. Leaks in the warehouse roof have allowed for the mixing of spills in the warehouse and their subsequent release to the environment. As the rain water accumulates on the warehouse floor it eventually reaches a point where the water flows out of the east side of the warehouse (areas 2 and 4, Figure 3) and is discharged to the soil adjacent to this area of the warehouse. Investigations conducted by the Surveillance and Monitoring Branch (SMB) in 1985 and 1986 revealed that process waste water from the facility was discharged into the intermittent stream adjacent to the site. Analyses of sediments from this creek bed downstream from the discharge point showed that contamination consisted of xylene, di-n-octyl phthalate, 1,4-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, napthalene, fluorene, phenanthrene, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, arsenic, beryllium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, antimony, and zinc. The on-site production well had detectable levels of arsenic, beryllium, 100334 -7- cadmitim, chromium, copper, mercury, antimony, and zinc in addition to the previously mentioned chloroform contamination. There are four possible sources for the contamination listed above. 1) A 17,000 gallon underground concrete pit used to contain production wastewater and sludges. This pit was abandoned and sealed with concrete in 1985. 2) The former wastewater drainage line leading from the process water pit to the intermittent stream was constructed of welded 55 gallon drums. This pipeline was excavated and replaced when it was discovered that numerous leaks and punctures had allowed wastewater to contaminate the surrounding soil. 3) Soil contamination as a result of leakage from a broken drainage line originating at a laboratory drain. 4) Spills associated with material transfer and tank or process line leakage. C. Previous Actions to Abate Threat As part of the sales contract with VIChem, Berlex (Island Chemical Company) was required to clean up any contamination — present at the site. Berlex hired Enviro-Sciences, Inc. (ESI) of Denville, NJ, to survey the site and certify it as environmentally clean. ESI's sampling survey disclosed four areas of contamination. Two areas within the tank farm were found to be contaminated, primarily with toluene. This contamination was thought to be from process or transfer spills. The other two areas, underneath the concrete loading dock and a nearby trench were contaminated primarily with pyridine. This contamination is believed to be from the leaking laboratory drain. The quantity of contaminants was estimated at 125 pounds of toluene and 120 pounds of pyridine. ESI recommended on-site treatment of the contaminated soil. The toluene contaminated soil was to be placed in a drying oven equipped with carbon filters, so that emission rates did not exceed the 200 ppm Threshold Limit Value (TLV) for toluene. The pyridine contaminated soil was to be treated by cutting the concrete pad and tilling the soil every two to three days and allowing the soil to aerate. A structure was to be built over the area to prevent soil saturation from rainfall. During SMB's September 1986 investigation these two on-site treatment procedures were confirmed, however some discrepancies were noted from the process outlined above. The drying oven was employed for the volatilization of toluene from the soil, but the charcoal filters to absorb the volatilized material were not observed. The contaminated soil was tilled and aerated using a backhoe and then covered with a large synthetic liner. No permanent structure had been built to prevent future saturation of the soil from rainfall. The synthetic liner was not owned by Berlex but was rented. During RPB's January 1989 investigation 100335 -8- this area was covered by concrete and a new loading dock had been built. It is adjacent to the dog kennel area and trailer used for living quarters by the kennel operator. In addition, on October 10, 1985, SMB was informed by Dr. A.L. Kyles, Vice President, Enviro-Sciences, that 192 55 gallon drtims of waste were removed by Berlex for disposal. This material consisted of process pit water and sludge, drums and soil from the wastewater drainage line, one 55 gallon drum of water/toluene, and toluene contaminated soil. No copies of manifests were received to confirm these shipments. At the time (1985) an additional 33 drums of waste belonging to Berlex were staged on site awaiting sample analyses and disposal. Data on the sampling performed by Berlex was never received by SMB to confirm the clean up by Berlex. Also, the re-routing of existing laboratory discharges to a self-contained unit was not observed. When Region II became aware of chloroform contamination in the, public wells in St. Croix a health evaluation was conducted. According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), chloroform is a B-2 carcinogen and has been shown to be a carcinogen in animals but not in humans. The Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) for chloroform is 100 parts per billion (ppb). If other halogenated organics were present along with the chloroform, the 100 ppb MCL would be for all halogenated organics present. Chloroform contamination ranged from 11 to 75 ppb and no other contaminants were detected. Since the MCL was not exceeded, a CERCLA/SARA response was not initiated. D. Current Actions to Abate Threat The threat of direct contact to the general ptiblic is currently being limited by a perimeter chain link fence and site security maintained by VIAG and SCSK. There is evidence that at times the guard dogs are allowed to roam through the yard of the facility. In a letter dated March 1, 1989, to Region II's New York/ Caribbean Compliance Branch, Fred Schubert, President of VIChem, informed EPA that during his February 21-23, 1989 site visit "a small amount of non-contaminated rain water was swept out of the warehouse floor, the floors of the warehouse were swept and all sweepings were collected in an open head drum which was covered and remains on the site and a single five gallon pail of a laboratory solvent was placed in a second open head drum which was covered and remains on the site". No sampling/analyses were conducted to verify if the rain water or floor sweepings were contaminated. The type of laboratory solvent overpacked is unknown. Mr. Schubert also stated "non-chemical waste (empty boxes, waste paper, etc.) was removed from the site". Cans of paint were staged in one location outdoors. 100336 -9- TV. ENFORCEMENT Berlex Laboratories, Inc. has svxbmitted a work plan to EPA for the performance of environmental sampling at the site. The work plan is being finalized, after which it is expected that Berlex will implement the work called for by the work plan, pursuant to an Administrative Order to be issued by EPA. On March 13, 1989, Notice Letters were sent to the following Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs): Berlex Laboratories, Inc., Island Chemical Company, Inc., CHS Holding Corporation, Virgin Island Chemical Company, and VIAG Fuels, Inc.. None of these PRPs indicated that they were willing to conduct or finance a drum removal or other appropriate CERCLA response. VIChem has indicated that it would not object to or obstruct EPA's performance of the removal action described herein. EPA will also seek VIAG's and SCSK's agreement to not operate or have personnel (or dogs) on-site during working hours of the removal action or if conditions at the site (stability) warrant _ evacuating the site of non-essential personnel. It may be desirable to have SCSK maintain site security during interim periods when EPA has temporarily demobilized for analytical and transportation/disposal coordination. The dog kennel is a very effective deterrent for potential trespassers or vandals. Further, EPA will seek to ensure that VIAG properly removes its numerous paint cans and two drums of water treatment chemicals at the site. Four of the tanks currently contain ethanol. VIAG does not own this ethanol; however, they intend to buy this material when their company becomes fully operational. Enforcement Programs will seek assurances from VIAG that VIAG intends to buy the ethanol from the current owner of this alcohol, Ethanol Corp. of Birmingham, Alabama, and that VIAG will take responsibility for this material by using and storing it properly. This action will generate a cost savings to the Region in that 4 0,000 gallons of product will not have to be disposed of or recycled by EPA. The tanks appear sound and should provide continued safe storage of the ethanol. V. PROPOSED PROJECT AND COSTS A. Objective of the Project The overall objective of this removal action will be to reduce the threat of fire, explosion, air release and direct contact. The scope of this response will be to continue site security, stabilize reactive, leaking or weakened containers, and dispose of above ground containerized materials and resarople public wells contaminated with chloroform. 100337 -10- For the purposes of planning, this response will be divided into three phases. The first phase of the project will involve activities at the site which reduce the most immediate potential for fire/explosion or air release and stabilize leaking and weakened containers. A security service will be provided during those times of the removal action when work is not being performed at the site. The activities and actions of the first phase are listed below. Phase 1: 1) Stabilize, detonate/treat, or recycle air-reactive, water- reactive and shock-sensitive materials, and the deteriorated cylinders. 2) Sample and overpack or transfer to new drums all other containerized materials. 3) Contact potential recyclers in the Caribbean area (USVI and Puerto Rico) and coordinate recycling of usable product if~ possible and appropriate. Recyclers outside the Caribbean area may not be considered. This is due to the possibility of a recycler rejecting a product. If this were to occur with a United States mainland recycler, the cost of transportation from and back to the site would far exceed any potential cost savings to be realized through recycling. 4) Segregate materials by hazard class, and separate incompati- ble materials. Relocate and stage all overpacked containers in an area of the warehouse where they will not be impacted by rain water from the leaking roof. If dry warehouse space is limited, overpacked drums will be placed on pallets and covered with waterproof tarps. 5) Conduct sampling of the Fairplains and VIPA wells and analyze for chloroform contamination. EPA will not make capital improvements to the main building by repairing the leaking warehouse roof. All sound and usable tanks will be left on site. Except for the 40,000 gallons of ethyl alcohol discussed previously, the contents of other tanks will be disposed of. Any on-site treatment or detonation (on- or off-site) will be fully coordinated with the St. Croix Local Emergency Planning Conimittee (LEPC) and U.S. Virgin Islands Emergency Response Commission (VIERC). If these commissions are not established or fully functional by this time, these actions will be coordinated with the Virgin Islands Department of Planning and Natural Resources (DPNR) and appropriate emergency management agencies. 100338 -11- Phase 2; 1) Continue recycling efforts. 2) Conduct verification analyses for known materials and waste characterization for unknown materials or labeled materials which may have been tampered with. 3) Conduct disposal analyses for bulked unknown samples. 4) Based on this analytical information, coordinate the transportation and off-site disposal of all remaining materials. Phase 3; 1) Continue recycling efforts. 2) Package and label containers for transportation to the pre- arranged disposal facility. — 3) Site demobilization and discontinue site security. Use of disposal facilities in Puerto Rico will be considered. However, these facilities may not be in compliance with appropriate RCRA regulations. Due to the fact that transportation for off-site disposal will be by water carrier, all drums leaving the site will be overpacked or in new drtoms. Materials will not be bulked in tanks or sealed roll-off containers in order to avert the possibility of an adverse reaction occurring during transportation. The increase in cost due to this action will outweigh the risks associated with a mode of transportation which will take a relatively long period of time during which mixing by wave action on the ship and heat from the tropical environment persists. B. Project Estimated Costs The following synopsis of the estimated costs is based on information obtained from several sources. The ERCS cost data is based on the OSC's copy of the ERCS contract. Several OSCs and OSC Reports were consulted for on-site treatment cost estimates and typical costs for field purchases, rental equipment and other items while working in the Caribbean. This is the first drum removal conducted in the U.S. Virgin Islands by Region II. Delays from the weather (rain storms, heat stress), supply and equipment deliveries, and other logistical complications are expected. Consequently, the ERCS contingency factor has been increased to 30%. 100339 -12- O.H. Materials will be the ERCS contractor for this removal, since they are the only Region II ERCS contractor to service the Caribbean area.

Project Schedule Approximately one month prior to the anticipated start date, the OSC and Response Manager from O. H. Materials will visit the site and review the scope of work, and develop strategies and a work plan. This will be necessary to determine which equipment and supplies will have to be shipped from the mainland. Mobilization of equipment will take two weeks and mobilization of personnel will take two days. The first phase should take approximately three weeks. Analytical, transportation and disposal coordination will be the most time-consuming phase and may take six to eight months. After all disposal approvals have been obtained, the final phase for packaging, labeling and off- site shipment is anticipated to take three weeks. 100340 -13- All disposal activities will be conducted in accordance with CERCLA's off-site disposal policy and other applicable or relevant and appropriate regulations. VI. RECOMMENDATIONS i Conditions at the VIChem site meet the criteria for a removal action under 40 CFR 300.65(b)(2) of the November 20, 1985 National Oil and Hazardous Svibstances Contingency Plan (NCP) . These criteria are: 1) Actual or potential exposure to hazardous substances or pollutants or contaminants by nearby populations, animals or food chain (Section 300.65(b)(2)(i)); 2) Actual or potential contamination of drinking water supplies « or sensitive ecosystems (Section 300.65(b)(2)(ii)); 3) Hazardous substances or pollutants or contaminants in drums, barrels, tanks or other bulk storage containers, that may pose-a threat of release (Section 300.65(b)(2)(iii)); 4) Weather conditions that may cause hazardous substances or pollutants or contaminants to migrate or be released (Section 300.65(b)(2)(V)); 5) Threat of fire or explosion (Section 300.65(b)(2)(vi)); A removal action addressing containerized surface contaminants, pollutants and hazardous substances is consistent with Section 104(b)(2) of CERCLA as amended by SARA, in that this response will contribute to the efficient performance of long term remedial actions planned for this site. The funds requested to initiate and complete this removal action will come from the Removal Advice of Allowance for Fiscal Years 1989 and 1990. Obligation of the necessary funds to complete this removal will occur in the first quarter of FY 1990. This action is in accordance with OSWER Directives 9360.0-18 and 9200.3-05. I, therefore, recommend your approval of this request for a removal action under CERCLA as amended by SARA for the Virgin Island Chemical Company site. The estimated project ceiling for this removal is $1,840,000 of which $1,262,000 is for mitigation contracting. 100341 -14- Your authority to approve these project funds is pursuant to Assistant Administrator J. Winston Porter's May 25, 1988, redelegation memorandum. Delegation Number R-14-1-A.

CROIX, USVI In connection with the sale of assets of Island Chemical Company (ICC) to Virgin Island Chemical Company (VICC), in October, 1984, Enviro-Sciences, Inc. (ESI) was retained to investigate the ICC site and, if found, remediate the contamination. ESI has conducted numerous site investigations emd has remediated potential sources of contamination. All investigations and their results through February, 1986 have been submitted to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), Region II for review and comment. (All backup information is available upon request from ESI.) Site Description Various aspects of the site are described in reports previously submitted to Region II: Progress Report, Island Chemical Company, Inc. (Berlex) St. Croix, Virgin Islands (December, 1984); and, Addendum to Progress Report, Island Chemical Company, Inc. (Berlex) ,St. Croix, Virgin Islands (April, 1985). The facility is located on the island's south side and near the west end (Figure 1) at Latitude 17 42'26" and Longitude 64 47'25". It is situated approximately 6.1 miles equidistant from the two major towns: Frederiksted to the west and Christiansted to the east. Facility access is via Route 66 which traverses the island east and west. As seen in Figure 2, it is about 0.5 miles north of Alexander Hamilton Airport. Elevation of the 3.5-acre site is approximately 30-40 feet mean sea level. The topography slopes from south to north with a 10-foot decrease in elevation. During periods of heavy rainfall and runoff (Table 1), water flows from south to north across the western edge of the site (Figure 3 ) , west of the berm. East of the berm the south to north flow is interrupted by a storm drain, located between the office building and maintenance shop, and diverted eastward off of the property. Additional flow is received by an open concrete duct and carried off-site east of the property. A dry streambed (River Gut) which originates in the central portion of the island borders the northern and eastern boundaries. Flow occurs generally during the wet season (September through December) and only during heavy runoff (Table 1). The lower portion of the drainage lying beyond the facility is utilized as a sewage outfall. All surface runoff frora the site flows into the streambed. 100371 The major geologic formations exposed on the island are shown in Figure 4. The site is situated on alluvial deposits which have filled in the valleys. These deposits have attained considerable thickness along intermitant streambeds, especially River Gut, Salt River and Bethlehem Gut. A maximum thickness of about 100 feet occurs at the lower reach of River Gut. The alluvium is mostly low permeable, (.montmorilliniticiclay with thin (2 to 4 feet) interbedded lenses of terrigeneous sand and gravel. Generally, the amount of sand and gravel increases seaward. A higher percentage of the sand and gravel deposits occurs in the intermitant streambed valleys. The degree of interconnection between these lenses is unknown; however, subsurface investigations indicate that many such lenses are isolated and limited in horizontal extent (Figure 5). The principle aquifer for the Fairplain and Golden Grove public well fields is the River Gut alluvial deposits. Most groundwater appears to be under partially confined conditions. Upper sand layers in this area produce groundwater under unconfined or water table conditions, but the deeper sand may be artesian. Some researchers believe that water in the alluvium is confined and water table aquifers are not present. Discussions held with local well drillers. The Department of Public V7orks and visiting researchers, indicate that if groundwater flows in the site vicinity it is probably east to southeast along the flow direction of River Gut. As shown in Figure 6, the facility is situated on soils of the Coamo Series. These are gently sloping, well drained soils which occur as alluvial fans and terraces. They formed in sediments derived from volcanic and limestone rocks. They range in texture from clay to sand. The upper layer is typically grayish-brown clay and clay loam. Permeability is slow to moderate, and the shrink-swell potential is moderate. These soils are commonly associated with San Anton, Glynn and Fraternidad soils. Soil characteristics for two on-site locations (glass reactor and water tank) are shown in Appendix A. Generally, the soils are typical of alluvial fans or terraces. Potable water for distribution is supplied from both groundwater (30 percent) and desalted water (70 percent). However, the island is very dependent on storage (cisterns) to cope with water demands. Most private dwellings have their own roof/cistern systems for water supply. There are eight major well fields on St. Croix and they are located as shown in Figure 7. The quality is generally poor due to mineralization and oil contamination from piimp lubrication. These contaminants are often pumped into the supply system. The location of the three closest well fields in relation to the facility are shown in Figure 8. The three fields contain 14 of the 37 total well field wells. 100372 i J ] j j J J J J 1 1 1 1 i I Wind direction is from the east and southeast (trade winds) with velocities ranging from 5-15 miles per hour. Closest residences are located about 0.1 miles east of and upwind of the facility. Facility History Ownership The 3.5-acre site is owned by Charles H. Steffey, Inc. On May 1, 1969 Steffey leased the property to Houston Chemical Industries, Inc. Houston Chemical assigned the lease to Caribe Chemical Co., Inc. (subsequently known as Pierrel America, Inc.) on March 20, 1972. On June 30, 1978 Pierrel America assigned the ground lease to Cooper- Laboratories, Inc. On October 30, 1979 Cooper Laboratories assigned the lease to its subsidiary, ICC. ICC was incorporated in Delaware on July 21, 1978. On November 1, 1979 Cooper Laboratories sold all of the stock of ICC to the predecessor of Berlex Laboratories, Inc. Facility Description The ICC facility was constructed during the early 1970's and is depicted in Figure 3. The site structures consist of a tank farm (14 aboveground tanks; maintenance building which houses boilers (2), refrigeration units, air compressors, and a shop; office/warehouse building which includes analytical laboratories, restrooms, storage room, dryer area and worker cafeteria; and production area which includes a centrifuge and dryer building, stainless steel reactor area, and glass reactor area. Additional ancillary facilities include two generator buildings, cooling towers, storage tanks (two, 4,000-gallon) and a 250,000-gallon water storage tank. The glass reactor, associated concrete pad and concrete surface drainage diversion were added to the facility about 1979 or 1980. Six of the original 20 tanks in the tank farm were sold locally during the early 1980's. Septic tanks are used for all sanitary wastes. No process or laboratory wastes are connected to the septic system. Septic tanks are depicted in Figure 3; however, the exact location of the tank servicing the office restrooms is not known. Laboratory wastes drained from both laboratories to a cobble-filled pit located below a concrete pad west of the warehouse. As shown in Figure 9, liquids would flow into the pit. This pit was connected via a 4-inch, PVC pipe to another cobble filled pit near the fence. Any wastes from spills in the process area were collected by concrete channels and directed to an 8,000-gallon below grade, concrete tank. Any spills could be collected and reprocessed or cleaned and reused in the production process. The pit was connected via a 4-inch line 100373 # I i I I to a storm drain. This storm drain also drained storm runoff to the off-site gut via a drainline composed of 55-gallon drums welded end to end (Figure 3 ) . Surface runoff from the concrete duct behind the glass reactor was via a 55-gallon drumline frora the fence to the gut. Water cisterns are located vinder the cafeteria in the main building, \ander the warehouse, and near the maintenance shop. All water is collected through the building gutter system. The primary use for cistern water is consumption, laboratory and domestic uses. However, most plant workers brought drinking water to the site. Two wells (Figure 3) are present on the site (northwest corner and near water storage tank) for process water and fire fighting system. Both wells were installed by Schuster Services, St. Croix, USVI. However, well logs indicating depth to water, well screen location and other well information is not available. Facility Operations Prior to the acquisition of the leasehold by Cooper Laboratories, it is believed the prior owners used the site to manufacture phenacetin and ethoxyquin. Shortly before Berlex acquired ICC, and with it the leasehold and improvements, the facility was being used by Cooper to perfect a four-step process licensed from a French company to convert cpiinine, to its dextrorotary isomer quinidine. Cooper halted its work on the French process in mid-1979. In late 1979, ICC.began developmental work on a quinidine process based on available know how. It was not until October 1980 that sufficient planning and research had been performed on the process to warrant jfull staffing and personnel training ait the facility. It was thus not until the end of 1980 that production of a pilot size batch was begun. In addition, after 1980, the plant also was used to reclaim quinidine- Frora the end of 1980 until the end of 1982 ICC continued to experience production problems related to the purity and yield of the product and only during the last months of 1982 were anything more than pilot batches produced. Early in 1982, it was decided to abandon plans to use the site and the plant was permanently closed by the end of 1982. In its experimentation with quinidine conversion and the reclaimation of quinidine, toluene (including reclaimed Toluene) was used. Pyridine was never used in the process by ICC after acquisition by Berlex. 100374 I Two laboratories were present at the St. Croix facility. An analytical laboratory was maintained to test raw materials, and to conduct in-process and final product testing. A process laboratory was also present at the site for product development functions, primarily the small scale duplication (1-5 liter quantities) of steps in the process to work out problems and test improvements. 4 I The process used by ICC after acquisition by Berlex was for the ( conversion of quinine to quindine which involved neutralization, oxidation, and reduction. At several steps in the process, toluene and reclaimed toluene was used. This toluene was recovered at every step. The entire amount recovered in every case was stored and reused when the process was rerun. The Scime is true for the process used to recover quinidine from finished product. The toluene used in the process was recovered and reused when the process was run again. Thus, the approximately 28,600 gallons of toluene on the site during ice's use of the facility constantly was used in the two processes. At the time of the shut-down of the plant in December of 1982 by ICC, there was no further useful purpose for this material and it was manifested and shipped to Inland Chemical of Puerto Rico, Inc. of Manati, Puerto Rico, where it was burned. Pyridine was used only in the process licensed by Cooper, which was rvin only once by ICC, at some date prior to the acquisition by Berlex. In addition, extremely small qucuitities of pyridine were on the ICC site for use as a reagent in the analytical and process laboratories. At the time ICC acquired the St. Croix site, approximately 6,900 gallons of xylene mixed with p-phenetidine were present. This svibstance was a raw material used by a former owner. It was at no time used by ICC. After the plant shutdown, it was shipped to Philip Brothers Chemicals, Inc. in New York for sale. The sale unfortunately was not consummated and since no other purchaser could be found, the material was thereafter manifested as a hazardous waste and shipped to Inland Chemical in Puerto Rico for burning. As noted above, ICC maintained analytical and process laboratories on the site. Small quantities of laboratory chemicals were present in each (see Table 2). Only very small quantities would be used at a time in laboratory procedures, e.g., a half pint or less at a time. During the period of approximately two years when ICC operated, the only wastes regularly generated were those stemming from the process and analytical laboratories. These would total no more than a few gallons or so a quarter. Thus, ICC was a small quantity generator during this period. 100375 I i J i J i 9 J i I I Site Investigations ICC site studies began in September, 1984 and have continued to March, 1986. These investigations are discussed below in chronological sequence. A. Initial Site Investigation: September 11-20, 1984 Follow-up Investigation: October 23-28, 1984 Mr. Irving Cohen of ESI initiated the site investigations on September 11, 1984 and was replaced by Alan Kyles, Ph.D. on September 13. The initial phase continued through September 20, 1984. A second phase was undertaken from October 23 through October 31, 1984. The entire property was walked and scrutinized for visible surface contamination. A backhoe was utilized to open trenches in areas where contcunination might be expected. Most trenches were excavated to a depth of six feet. A portable Flame Ionization Detector (FID) was used to sense volatile organic compounds on the ground surface and faces of open trenches. (The FID has a detection range of 1 to 1,000 ppm). As the program progressed, a drill rig capable of boring concrete and split-spoon sampling was brought to the site. Soil samples were taken from all trenched areas showing volatile ' organic contamination and from bore holes at various depths. All trenches were backfilled after investigations were completed. Boring and trench locations are shown in Figures 9 and 10, respectively. Results The site evaluation procedures detected four areas of contamination. These are (Figure 11): 1) along trench number 4, under concrete slab number 3; 2) between tanks numbered 8 and 9; 3) along trench number 9; and 4) under the concrete surfaced loading dock. The contaminated area located along trench 4 is shown in Figure 12. The contaminant had a distinct odor of toluene and exceeded a 280 ppm reading on the FID. However, gas chromatography sample analysis (Sample numbers 84 through S4-4) did not detect the presence of toluene or indicated levels of <0.2 ppm. These analyses were conducted by two separate laboratories. The time lag between sample taking and analysis (3 weeks) may account for the difference between field readings and laboratory analytical results. A three- to four-foot wide section was removed from slab 3 to determine the extent of contamination. Inspection with the FID indicated that contamination was limited to this area and did not extend or penetrate the soil under slabs 2 and 4. Depth of contamination was restricted to the first two to three feet of soil. 100376 f I I I All contaminated soil (approximately 4 cubic yards) was placed in 55-gallon drums cind stored in the warehouse for eventual disposal. The pit was backfilled with clean soil. / The entire area between and in front of Tanks 8 and 9 was contaminated with toluene which escaped from Tank 8 during cleaning. Laboratory analysis indicated that Tank 8 contained a 1.4 percent solution of toluene cind water and the surrounding soil and gravel mixture contained 694 ppm of toluene. Due to rain the prior evening and impending for later in the day, the area was cleaned. Soil and gravel was removed down to a depth of cibout one foot. At this depth a hard clay layer is present. All material, including water, was placed in 55-gallon drums and removed to the warehouse for later disposal. Sample analysis of the underlying clay soil indicated the absence of toluene. When opening trench 9 behind the loading dock, a 4-inch PVC line was broken (Figure 9). Immediate odor indicated the presence of pyridine and the FID recorded in excess of 1,000 ppm when the broken pipe was probed. This pipe was dry, indicating no recent usage. Surface water settling in the open cut had a reading of 280 ppm. Further excavation and line tracing lead to a pit near the fence containing stones and covered with tin sheeting. Vapor emissions from the pit approached 800 ppm. Further excavation was discontinued for about 4 weeks until the return visit in October. Surface samples (Figure 9) were taken in the eroded trench which drains to the dry river bed and the excavated trench; pyridine, quinidine gluconate, and a quinine sulfate were present. A strong pyridine odor was prevalent during the excavation and sampling period. Upon the return visit in October, the pyridine odor was not noticeable. Probing the pit and PVC pipe did not elicit a response on the FID. The pit was excavated without detection of organic vapors, especially pyridine. Discussions with personnel who have been at the facility for a number of years revealed the past history for the loading dock area. Originally, laboratory drains exited frora the building and wastes flowed directly to an open pit. Occassionally, during the rainy season the pit would fill with water and overflow by a swale to the dry river bed beyond the fence. Later, the pit was filled and the area concreted for use as a loading dock. It was uncertain how the lahoratory drain was rerouted to the pit near the fence. A total of 40 borings were made in the loading dock area; 22 during September and 18 during October. Most borings were at least 6-feet deep with a few being 9-feet deep. Table 3 shows the FID readings 100377 4 # J for all samples taken during September. Soil texture indicates that contaminants are confined to sandy-clay material which was apparently used for fill. Samples taken from the dense clay below the sand were relatively free of contamination. Analysis of soil samples from the pit area indicate the presence of were pyridine, toluene, fluorethyne, 2-methyl propanol, pentane, and 2-methyl-1-heptene. Again it appears that the volatile aspects of the soil scimples had been lost. The additional borings made in October further delineated the contamination and provided information on the laboratory drain routing under the concrete. Findings were confirmed using fluorescein dye. Apparently the laboratory wastes flow into a pit filled with stone near borings 20 and 20A. Once the pit fills, liquid overflows to an area near boring 16. Once this fills then flow continues out to the pit near the fence. Samples were selected from these new borings and immediately analyzed. Analyses show the presence of at least 690 ppb toluene; 43,000 ppb pyridine; 64,000 ppb diphenyl methanone; and 600 ppb total xylene. Additional materials were present at lower concentrations. Oil and grease analysis indicated concentrations up to 1,500 ppm. In summary, the loading dock area contained a varied mixture of materials. The contamination appears to be concentrated in the original pit area presently filled with sand. The underlying clay material has probably prevented downward percolation since the FID reading for clay samples are low. Also, the materials are highly volatile. The findings of the investigation were submitted to Region II in December, 1984. ESI considered the cleaning of contciminated soil on site instead of removal to a certified landfill located on the mainland due to costs and low levels of contamination. Numerous alternatives were considered, including on-island incineration at the Hess Refinery. On-site decontamination was not only feasible but cost effective. After considerable discussions with Mr. Robert Harris of Region II, an on-site treatment plan was submitted in April, 1985. The USEPA was notified in May that the proposed plan would begin during June. June 6-15, 1985 Based upon analytical results, the pounds of toluene in the driommed soil was calculated to be about 120 pounds. The drummed soil was placed on trays in a dryer located on-site (Figure 3 ) . Calculations were conducted to ensure that emission rates would not exceed 200 ppm TLV (calculated value 1-3 ppm). This concentration in air is not flammable. Soils with high and low concentrations were mixed for 100378 I I 4 f I 4 I I uniform drying. All empty drums were triple rinsed and the wash water collected for later treatment or disposal. Soil samples were collected periodically during the drying process to monitor the decrease in levels of toluene. The amount of pyridine and toluene calculated to be present under the concrete pad in the laboratory waste pit was 119 pounds and 4 pounds respectively. ESI began treatment of the contaminated area behind the loading dock with the soil in place. This method involved the following sequence: 1) All laboratory waste flows were rerouted to a self contained unit thus preventing new contaminants and liquid from entering the area. 2) Portable toilets were available since the location of the septic tank was unknown. (Excavation proved the tank was not in this area.) 3) A shelter was constructed to prevent rainfall and runoff from entering the area. 4) All overlying concrete was removed to expose the contaminated soil, laboratory drains and pit. 5) A berm was constructed around the exposed soil to prevent inflow of water from rainfall. These preliminary steps allowed for vaporization of volatile materials to the atmosphere. Periodically, the soil was turned using a backhoe to expose underlying soil layers. Samples were taken periodically to determine the rate of volatile release and confirm the success of the methodology employed. Discussions with experts, indicated that pyridine will disappear upon exposure to air. They stated that although it is on the hazardous materials list it is biodegradeable in about 21 days if exposed to air and not in contact with water. The above precautions and methodology would allow for the biodegradation of pyridine. Also, other volatiles should disappear using this method. ESI held a meeting with Mr. Alfred Williams and Mr. Austin Moorehead of the Department of Conservation and Cultural Affairs, St. Croix . (809-773-0565). The concepts of this cleanup were discussed in its entirety and they consider the proposed methods to be suitable for the situation at the facility. They suggested that all work be coordinated through USEPA Region II. Two (2) storm drainlines were excavated to replace the existing lines which were deteriorated and caving in at several locations. Both former lines were constructed of 55-gallon drums which were welded end to end. Excavation of the former line revealed one line contained a sludgy material with 100379 J f I 4 I an oily texture. This material was collected and placed in 55-gallon, open top drimis (13 total) and stored until analysis indicated the constituents. Drums from the drainline were placed in a container for later disposal. No sludge or residue was present in the second drainline. The barrels from this line were placed in a container for later disposal. One line was replaced with 10-inch PVC pipe. The excavation and replacement of each line was discussed with Public Works as to the need for an "Earth Change" permit. After review and inspection, Public Works did not require a permit for replacement. During this field visit samples were taken from various areas and sent to stateside laboratories for analysis. These laboratories are Industrial Corrosion Management, Inc. (ICM) in Randolph, New Jersey and York Laboratories, Inc. (York in Monroe, Connecticut). Duplicates of most samples were sent to each laboratory as a quality control procedure. The following seunples were taken: Location . Type Analysis Dryer Soil Toluene Laboratory Pit Soil Pyridine Drainlines Soil Volatile Organics Process Pit Sludge Priority Pollutants + 40 To ensure the health of all personnel involved in the cleanup procedures, disposable protective clothing, including shoe coverings and hats were provided. The breathing apparatus was NIOSH approved masks with filters for organic vapors, acid gases and dust. The Scott part numbers and descriptions are listed below: Respirator (half face) TC-23C-174 Cartridge 642-OA Dust Filter 642-F Dust Filter Holder 642-FR June 31 - July 3 The site was revisited and soil samples were taken from the dryer and the laboratory pit. The remaining six (6) barrels of toluene-contaminated soil were loaded into trays and placed in the dryer. In addition, liquid samples from the process pit were taken for Priority Pollutants + 40 analysis. However, they were lost in shipment and had to be retaken at a later date. 10 100380 I f I I I I I I 4 I I I I I I I July 1 6 - 1 9 The site was revisited and samples were taken from the dryer and the laboratory pit. Priority Pollutants + 4 0 water samples were retaken from the process pit. August 6 - 9 Additional sampling of the laboratory pit and dryer was conducted. September and October, 1985 During September, the site was visited and samples of all waste streams (contaminated areas) were collected for shipment to Chemical Waste Management. This data is required before acceptance of wastes for disposal. On September 17, the site was visited by Mr. Louis Diguardia, USEPA, Region II. He collected samples and discussed the site activities with Mr. Raymond Hays, a subcontractor at the site. After Chemical Waste Management accepted the waste streams for disposal, the site was visited during early October to drum all materials for shipment and disposal. Attempts were made to dispose of washed drums locally through a verbal request to Austin Moorehead. He suggested I call USEPA Region II. The answer from Region II was to send a letter. Action time would have been 2-3 weeks. This was not pursued due to time costs. In addition, permission was sought by letter to evaporate process pit water instead of shipping off island. Mr. Moorehead responded to the letter verbally that this would require considerable time for approval. At this same time, 192 drums of hazardous waste were packed, loaded and manifested to Chemical Waste Management for disposal. January 30 - 31 , 1986 With concerns about runoff from the facility to the gut, the site was visited and samples for metals and volatile organics were taken from 11 locations (Figure 13). Analytical results are summarized in Table 4. Since metals were not used in any process by ICC, the metals present probably originate frora the continual facility maintenance. Due to salt breeze, corrosion is a major problem throughout the Island. Maintenance workers continually chip and repaint the metal framework. The chips are washed into the gut during rainfall. In addition, an EP Toxicity test indicates the metals found were not leachable. Volatile organic analyses showed that none are present. I I 11 100381 I I I I I i f I I February 20 - 28, 1986 The site was visited to containerize all hazardous materials and wastes owned by ICC for disposal. Thirty-three (33) drums of material were collected. Waste samples were collected for analyses by ICM to determine if the drummed materials were hazardous. On May 29, additional waste samples were collected and forwarded with waste material profile sheets to Chemical Waste Management, Inc., Emelle, Alabama. Since several items were not accepted in Alabama, waste profile sheets for S and W Wastes, Inc., New Jersey were completed. Upon acceptcuice of all materials by S and W Waste, manifests were completed and the wastes were shipped from St. Croix during March, 1987. March 11 - 14, 1986 The USEPA, Edison, NJ office requested to sample several locations on and adjacent to the ICC site. Sampling was conducted on March 13. I ESI was present to provide site information to the investigative team (Carol Price, Project Leader) and take split samples. Sampling locations were: 085-251-ESI - Northwest corner, in the gut (background) 085-252-ESI - In the gut behind the laboratory pit 085-253-ESI - In the gut just below the drainline outfall 085-254-ESI - The laboratory pit 085-255-ESI - The laboratory pit 085-256-ESI - The well in the northwest corner. Priority Pollutants + 40 (PP+40) analyses (except metals) were conducted by ICM on the first 5 samples; PP+40 was conducted on the well sample. No contaminants were found. Summarv ESI has conducted a site investigation for contamination during the prior one and one-half years. Five (5) locations were found: 1) Between storage tanks 8 and 9, 2) End of slab No. 3, 3) Process pit, 4) Drainline, and 5) Laboratory pit. Remediation of the first four (4) areas consisted of containerizing, waste analyses for disposal, manifesting, and disposal at the Chemical Waste Management, Inc. facility in Emelle, Alabama. Remediation of the laboratory pit involved biodegradation through soil manipulation. 12 100382 Literature Sources Consulted Black, Crow, and Eidsness, Inc. 1976.

INTRODUCTION The subsurface investigation for the proposed Cooper Laboratories Plant Expansion, Estate Bethlehem, St. Croix has been completed. Three (3) soil borings were performed at the site and the results of these borings, to- gether with a location diagram are included in this report. It is our understanding that the proposed expansion will occupy an area of 33 ft. by 17 ft. with various units including a large glass reactor having an estimated total weight (including internals) of 35 tons. Other units will have minor loads. The purpose of this report is to describe the soil conditions as encountered in the borings, to analyze and evaluate the boring and test data obtained, and to submit recommendations regarding feasible foundation design and construction. SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION PROCEDURES The soil borings were performed using a trailer-mounted drilling rig equipped with a hydraulic head used.in the drilling and sampling opera- tions. Also used was a truck mounted rig for deeper holes. The boreholes were advanced using continuous flight hollowstem augers and representative samples were obtained by means of split-barrel sampling procedures in accor- 100404 C A R I B B E A N O R I U L I N C S E R V I C E S . I N C . — — — : " — CDS Job if79512 dance with ASTM Specifications D-15B6. In the split-barrel sampling procedure, standard penetration resistance values (blows per foot of a 140 lb. hammer falling 30" on a 2" O.D. split-barrel sampler) were obtained. These resistance values are an indication of the relative density of predominantly granular soil in place. All soil samples obtained in the field were labeled, sealed and forwarded to the laboratory for further examination and testing. TESTING PROGRAM Due to the nature of the soils encountered a limited laboratory testing program was implemented.. The program consisted of reclassification of the samples and determination of the natural moisture content. The re- sults of all tests performed are shown on the boring logs opposite the cor- responding samples. Careful boring logs were kept in the field, where the soil samples were classified in accordance with.the Unified Soil Classification System. After completion of the testing program, the smaples were again examined and the field classifications revised where necessary. SOIL CONDITIONS The site is located in an alluvium valley formed on the Kings- hill Formation of Lower Miocene Age. Sediments were derived from the north range and consist of fine sands, sandy clays and silty gravels. Variable stratification is present indicating braided stream deposition. 100405 ( - * p i r . p r - . K j D R I L L I N G S E R V I C E S . I N C . CDS Job 1119512 From a soils engineering viewpoint, the upper surface soils (below existing concrete slab at B-1 and B-2) at all boring locations consist of either stiff silty clay or silty sand with variable percen- tages of clay to an average depth of rom 1.5 to 2.5 ft. Below this surface layer, medium dense to dense silty sand and gravel or sandy silt (B-1) strata were encountered which extended to depth of from 5.0 to 7.5 ft., merging gradually into sandy silt or silty sand with numerous rock fragments. This latter stratum was interspersed with sandy clay seams of limited thickness. The lowest soil formation encountered (typically below 15 ft.) was a medium dense to very dense silty sand and gravel which extended to the maximum depths investigated (i.e. 25 ft.). WATER TABLE CONDITIONS Water level observations made after boring are shown on the boring logs. Based on the available information it appears that at the time the borings were performed, the hydrostatic water table was at approximately 20 ft. below the present ground surface at all boring locations. The hydrostatic water table should be anticipated to fluc- tuate throughout the year depending upon variations in percipitation and surface runoff. 100406 ; C A R I B B E A N D R I L L I N G S E R V I C E S . I N C . ; CDS Job //79512 ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS As described under soil conditions, the upper, near surface soils, consisting primarily of silty clay or loose silty sand and are not considered competent soils. We recommend footing type foundations be used deriving their support from either the medium dense silty sand and gravel or sandy silt typically encountered at 3 ft. below present ground surface. Footings may be designed for a maximum allowable total load soil bearing pressure of 3000 p.s.f., when established on the bearing soils noted above. If higher allowables are required, footings should be established below 5 ft., at which depth an allowable total load soil bearing pressure of 4000 p.s.f. or higher may be used. For footings located on the medium dense silty sand or sandy silt at 3.0 ft. (min.) below present ground surface, anticipated settle- ments should not exceed %". Differential settlements, however, should be negligible. '^ Due to the nature of the bearing soils, (particularly at the location of boring B-1) we strongly recommend that excavations not be left open for an extended period of time. Saturation of the sandy silt or fine grained saiid will affect bearing capacity adversely. If satu- ration does occur, it is recommended that the soil (saturated) be removed to full disturbed depth prior to steel placement and pouring the concrete. No construction problems are anticipated for the smaller 100407 ; C A R I B B E A N DRII_L.INC. S E R V I C E S . I N C - ! CDS Job #79512 units, but some sloughing of the semi-granular soils may occur in the . excavations, which may not permit certain foundations to be poured neat. Again the longer excavations are left open the more sloughing is to be andicipated. Site drainage should be given careful attention to insure that surface waters are not permitted to stand near or seep into the foundation bearing soils. This report has been prepared in order to aid in the evalu- ation of the site soil parameters and to assist the engineer in the design of the project. The analysis and recommendations submitted in this report are based on data obtained from three (3) soil borings per- formed at the locations shown on the reference sketch 79512-D. This report does not reflect the variations between borings which may not become evident until the course of construction. If variations then appear evident, it will be necessary for the soil and foundation engineer to re-evaluate the recommendations of this report after performing on-site observations and noting the effect of such variations on the design of the structure. 100408 ; C A R 1 B B E A N D R I L L I N G S E R V I C E S .

CDS Job No. 81501 August 19, 1980 INTRODUCTION The subsurface investigation for the Proposed Firewater Tank to be located at the Cooper Laboratories Plant in Frederiksted, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, has been completed. A total of three (2) soil borings were performed and the results of these borings together with a location diagram are included with this report. It is our understanding that the Proposed Tank will be approxima- tely 37.0 ft. in diameter and approximately 38.0 ft. high. The tank is I (j i contemplated as a Firewater Reserve and is designed with a tank ring on a r compacted and treated fill. Foundation requirements stipulate a bearing capacity of approximately 2,000 psf with minimal settlement. Finished grade has not been established at this time but is expected to be slightly higher than existing plant grade, for ease in piping. The purpose of this report is to describe the soil conditions as encountered in the borings, to analyze the field and laboratory data and to submit recommendations regarding feasible foundation depths for the project requirements. SUBSURFACE INVESTIGATION PROCEDURES The soil borings were performed with a trailer-mounted drilling rig equipped with a hydraulic head used in the drilling and sampling ope- rations. The boreholes were advanced using continuous flight augers and 100418 ; CARIBBEAN O R I L L I N a SERVICES. INC. CDS Job No. 81501 representative samples were obtained by means of split-barrel samplers in accordance with ASTM Specification D-1586. In the split-barrel sampling procedure, standard penetration re- sistance values (blows per foot of a 140 lb. hammer falling 30 in. on a 2 in. O.D. split-barrel sampler were obtained). These resistance values (SPT) are an indication of the relative density of the soils in place. All soil samples obtained in the field were sealed and forwarded to the laboratory for further examination and testing. LABORATORY TESTING PROGRAM Due to the nature of the soils encountered, a limited laboratory testing program was implemented. The samples were carefully examined and re-classified and the natural moisture content of representative portions was determined. The results of all laboratory tests are plotted graphi- cally opposite the corresponding samples on the boring logs. Careful boring logs were kept in the field where the soil samples were classified in accordance with the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS). At the completion of the testing program, the samples were again examined and the field classifications revised, where necessary. SOIL CONDITIONS The specific soil conditions at each boring location are detailed on the pertinent boring log. Typically, a medium dense brown sandy silt, approximately 2.0 ft. in total thickness, blankets the site. This stratum is in a loose to medium dense state. 100419 " r - a m n n F A N n r a i L t ifstcz «: p-w v i r-F-•? iKir- CDS Job No. 81501 Below this surface veneer, medium dense light brown clayey silts or sandy clayey silts were encountered which extended to depths ranging from S.O ft. at boring B-3, to a maximum of 8.0 ft. at boring B-2. The clayey silts in turn are underlain by tough to very tough silty sandy clays which continue to the bottom of the boring B-1, and to approximately 12.0 ft, in boring B-3. Silty clays are absent in boring B-2 and the clayey silts previously mentioned extend to approximately 13.0 ft. The lowest soil formation at borings B-2 and B-3, was a dense silty sand with varying percentages of gravel which continued to the maximum depth investigated (15.0 ft.). Typically, below the surface veneer, density and strength increase with depth and moisture content decreases significantly below 7.0 ft. WATER TABLE CONDITIONS Water level observations made after boring are shown on the boring logs. Based on the available information, it appears that the hydrostatic water table was below the maximum depths investigated. The hydrostatic water table should be anticipated to fluctuate throughout the year depending upon variations in precipitation and surface runoff. Due to the possibility of occasional silty sand seams or gravel seams within the various formations, a perched water table may occur at the site during certain parts of the year. This condition would become evident during the time of construction. 100420 . C A R I B B E A N D R I L L I N G S E R V I C E S , I N C . I CDS';Job No. 81501 ( # I I ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Based on an analysis of the soil profile and the results of the laboratory tests, we recommend that the site be excavated to approximately el. 102, and the footing for the tank ring be excavated further to el. 101. For footings so located, we recommend an allowable total load soil bearing pressure of 2,000 psf. Anticipated settlement for this load criteria should not exceed %". Differential settlements are not expected to exceed V'. For the in- terior of the tank we recommend select backfill, preferably quarry screen- ings, between el. 102 and el. 103.5, be used. All backfill should be placed in 8 in. lifts Qoose thickness) and compacted\o a minimum of 95% of the maximum density as determined by ASTM Specification D-1557. We also recommend that the upper 6 in. consist of either oiled salt free sand or preferably oiled quarry screenings to preserve the inte- frity of the tank bottom steel (i.e. reduce moisture migration and oxida- tion to the bottom plates). GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS It should be noted that the proposed bearing soils are moisture sensitive. We therefore recommend that excavations not be left open for any extended period to minimize the possibility of saturation or overdrying. If saturation of the bearing soils should occur, it will be nece- ssary to remove the disturbed soil to full depth prior to pouring the concrete or backfilling within the tank ring. This precaution is necessary in order to prevent unduly high differential settlements upon imposition of load. 100421 • " — I-A o t n n p A f»J n w f l !_IfsiG S E R V I C E S . I N C . CDS Job No. 81501 I Due to the presence of silty clays and clayey silts relatively close to the bottom of the foundation system, it is imperative that mois- ture migration to the foundation elements be minimized. This may be accom- plished by sloping the site away from the tank in all directions. Further, we suggest paving an annulus around the tank ring with asphaltic concrete so that sheetwash from the tank sides will not penetrate the ring founda- tions or create erosion gullies. A 10.0 ft. annulus should be adequate. Needless to say, positive drainage away from the tank pad area to avoid local ponding is absolutely essential. Additionally, we recommend that the excavation^ and backfill operations be inspected by a qualified soil techniciansto verify that the proper^ bearing soil has been reached and to insure that the compaction re- quirements are met. The technician should perform in-situ density tests and the necessary proctor tests to establish compliance with these speci- fications. This report has been prepared in order to aid in the evaluation of the foundation soil parameters of this site and to assist in the design of this project. In the event that any changes in the design or location of the tank pad. , as outlined in this report are planned, the conclusions and recommendations contained in this report shall not be considered valid unless the changes are reviewed and conclusions of this report modi- fied or approved in writing by the soil and foundation engineer. 100422 r~Ai3iEaciE-AFsj r t ^ i S O I L B O R I N G S 4 \ I 100423 .CARIBBEAN DRILLING SERVICES, INC. t 4 1 1 CARIBBEAN DRILLING .

Findings 1) Sampling results indicate: • Organic analysis on samples #087001 and #087002 (drying oven) detected the following organic compounds ranging in values from 460 ppb to 15000.000 ppb: toluene, flourene, bis (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, benzophenone and di-n-octyl phthalate (detected only in sample #087002). • Organics analysis on samples #087003, #087004, #087005, and #087006 (lab waste drainage area) detected the following organic compounds ranging in values from 360 ppb to 75,000 ppb: toluene, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, di-n-octyl phthalate, chloroform, benzene and di-n-butyl phthalate. From the results, the toluene values were found to be within the acceptable level range of 2 ppm (reference document #2). Due to the late arrival of guidance protocol from EPA Research Laboratories, Cincinnati, no analysis of pyridine was performed. 2) Confirmation of on-site treatment of soil by Berlex (ICC) for toluene and pyridine was made. • Toluene The drying oven was employed for the volatilization of toluene from the soil, but the necessary charcoal filters to absorb the volatil- ized material were not observed. • Pyridine The contaminated soil was tilled and aerated using a backhoe and then covered over by a large synthetic liner. No permanent structure had been built to prevent future saturation of the soil from rainfall. The present liner was not owned by Berlex but rented. 100433 - 1 1 - 3) No data on the sampling performed by Berlex was ever received by the USEPA, Environmental Services Division, Edison, NJ to confirm the clean-up by Berlex. 4) The re-routing of existing laboratory discharges to a self-contained unit and portable toilet facilities was not observed. 5) On October 10, 1985, Dr. A. L. Kyles, Vice President, Enviro-Sciences, the consultant working with Berlex (ICC) informed me that 192, 55- gallon drums of waste was removed from Berlex for disposal. The material consisted of the following: o Process pit water and sludge. *• Drums and soil from the wastewater drainage line. " 1, 55-gallon drum of water/toluene. o Toluene contaminated soil. No manifest copies were received to confirm this shipment. 6) Hazardous material was stored on-site for greater than 90 days and in quantities greater than 1000 kg. Berlex is then subject to the regulations 40 CFR Parts 262 and 264. None of these regulations were observed to have been followed. 7) In review, a question is raised that a possible source of contam- ination is that of the dry creek bed. Process wastewater was dis- charged via a drainage line to the creek bed. Since the drainage line and soil associated with the line was found contaminated, the possibility of soil contamination in the creek is likely and should be investigated. 100434 Berlex Laboratories (ICC) VID80651095 St. Croix, VI DISCUSSION Applicable Regulations 40 CFR Parts 262 and 264. Purpose of Survey A RCRA compliance evaluation and sampling inspection (CEI) was con- ducted at Berlex Laboratories (ICC), St. Croix, VI on September 9, 1985. The survey was conducted at the request of the Solid Waste Branch to support and verify Berlex's decontamination and removal of Boil contaminated with toluene and pyridine. The elements of the survey Included a compliance record review, site survey and sampling. Facility History The Berlex Laboratories, Inc. plant, under the name Island Chemical Company (ICC), produced quinidine from November, 1979 after purchasing the site from Cooper Laboratories, until late 1982. In October 1982, Berlex notified EPA of the forthcoming closure and removal of waste materials and excess chemicals (xylene, toluene) from the site to Island Chemical of Puerto Rico. EPA assigned Berlex the ID No. VID80651095. Prior to the removal, Berlex was operating as a small quantity generator. Berlex sold the site In September 1984, 21 months after the shut-down of operations to Virgin Island Chemical Co. The sales contract for the site called for the contractor Enviro-Sciences, Inc. (ESI), 19 Copeland Road, Denville, NJ to survey the site and certify it as environmentally clean. An ESI sampling survey initiated in September 1984 disclosed tvo areas of soil contamination, vlth the compounds of concern being toluene and pyridine. On December 21, 1984 Enviro-Sciences, Inc. delivered a progress report describing ESI's sampling and analysis of soil at the Berlex site on St. Croix and Included recommendation for treatment of the pyridine (U196) and toluene (U220) contaminated areas. The recommended on-site treatment vas selected by ESI as a more economi- cal method than the alternative off-site shipment of drummed soil to the U.S. mainland for placement in an approved landfill. The proposed method of clean-up Includes the drying of toluene contaminated soil (which is presently stored at the facility in drums) and degratlon of pyridine contaminated soil. This would occur by exposure to ambient air causing soil aeration. Soil saturation by rainfall would be prevented by covering the area with a synthetic liner. 100435 -2- The toluene contamination resulted from soil leaks/spills at a tank, site and pyridine contamination from leaks from a laboratory drain line. The estimated quantity of the two materials (toluene and pyridine) are less than 245 pounds. On May 15, 1985, ESI reported the Intended Initiation of clean-up activ- ities on June 6, 1985. Facility Description and Operation The Berlex Laboratories, Inc. (Berlex) plant under the name Island Chemical Co. (ICC), located in St. Croix, Virgin Island started producing quinidine gluconate in November 1979 and operated for 2 years. During operations Berlex employed 215 people on a 2 shift, 5 day/veek, vork schedule. Maximum production output vas estimated at 30 tons/year, but this level vas never reached. The first production batch by Berlex vas November 1, 1979 (see Site Location Map, Figure 1). Berlex (ICC), St. Croix, VI manufactured as their sole product quinidine gluconate. The basic rav materials used in production included quinine sulfate, toluene, and methanol. Production involved the conversion of quinine sulfate into quinine gluconate by the addition of toluene In a reaction vessel. The liquid vas then distilled vlth methanol to produce the cystalllne solid, quinidine gluconate. Vithln the production area, the facility housed the follovlng reaction vessels: Reaction Vessels Number of Vessels 4 1 1 L 3 Material Construction Stainless Steel Carbon Steel Glass Lined Glass Lined Glass Lined (Receivers) Capacity 1200-1500 gallons 1200 gallons 3000 gallons 2000 gallons 2000 gallons Bulk rav materials arrived in tank trucks and vere stored on-site in 14, 8000 gallon rav material tanks (see photograph #1). 100436 -3- Water Usage and Treatment Groundwater was the primary source of water used in production. Approximately 20,000 gallons were used, of which, 10,000 gallons were recovered. Water was pretreated by filtering and adjusting pH (with sulfuric acid) due to the high carbonate concentration in the groundwater. The facility also housed the following systems (and tanks): Number of Tanks Capacity 15,000 gallons 15,000 gallons 50,000 gallons 20,000 gallons 250,000 gallons Systems Boiler System Drinking Water (rainwater) Recirculated Cooling Water Reduction/Oxidation Unit Firetank Wastewater from production operations (primarily cooling water) was collected in a 17,000 gallon underground concrete, process pit. No treatment was applied but prior to discharge, the pit was sampled to see if any product was released by accident. If nothing showed in the sampling, the water was discharged via an underground pipe to a dry creek adjacent to facility property. Waste Streams Hazardous wastes at Berlex (ICC) were generated from the following sources: 1) Process Pit Water and Sludge The 17,000 gallon underground concrete pit used to contain pro- duction wastewater and accumulate settled sludge from this waste- water. 2) Former Main Wastewater Drainage Line The underground pipe (constructed of welded 55-gallon drums) from the process pit to dry creek bed. The pipeline was excavated due to the finding of numerous leaks and punctures from which waste- water had contaminated the soil (see Figure 2, areas of contamination) 3) Contaminated Soil Due to Drainage Line Leakage A) Contaminated soil associated with the excavation of the main wastewater drainage line. B) Contaminated soil due to drainage line leakage from the lab- oratory drain. 100437 -4- 4) Contaminated soil from raw material spillage - toluene, pyridine. The spills associated with material transfer and tank or line leakage. Includes soil under the concrete surface loading dock, along trench number 4, under concrete slab number 3, between tankS numbered 8 and 9, and along trench number 9 (see Figure 2, areas of contamination). 5) Contaminated or off-specification raw materials which could neither be reworked nor sold. Prior to the facility's shutdown, Berlex (ICC) was said to be operating as a small quantity generator. What Berlex did with waste prior to the requested hazardous waste shipment (October 27, 1982) is unknown. Treatment Methodology As a result of sampling performed by Enviro-Science, Inc. (ESI) to certify how environmentally clean the site was, ESI disclosed two areas of soil contamination by toluene and pyridine (see figure #2, Plot Plan Showing Areas of Contamination). In response to such a disclosure, ESI recommended on-site treatment as an alternative to the economically unfeasible transport of the waste to the U.S. mainland. Reference document #1, contained the following methodology of treatment which was to be followed: ' Toluene The toluene contaminated soil would be placed on trays in a dryer located within the facility (see Figure 3, location of drying oven). Soils with low and high toluene concentration were permitted to be mixed to insure uniform drying. The empty drums from which the excavated material was stored would be washed with a nonphosphate detergent, rinsed with tap water and then air dried. Drum washings would be collected and later evaporated in the dryer. These same drums would be used to store the air-dried soil until laboratory analysis indicates that it is free of toluene or has very low concentration. If the soil is found to be free of toluene or at very low levels (2 ppm, reference document #2), it will be redis- tributed on the site. Prior to beginning the drying operation, calculations will be made using the fan speed, oven temperature, and stack diameter to insure that emission rates for toluene do not exceed 200 ppm TLV. This concentraion in air is not flammable. If calculations show that this control rate is marginal, then a carbon pot will be added to insure this limit would not be exceeded (see photographs #4 & #5). 100438 • 5 - " Pyridine The pyridine contaminated area would be treated in a 3 step approach. 1) The pyridine contaminated area would be covered over to prevent the saturation of soil from rainfall (see photograph #6). 2) The concrete surface loading dock in the vicinity of the pyridine contaminated areas would be removed using a backhoe and hauled to a landfill or used to stabilize the bank along the dry river bed. The Department of Public Works would be contacted for permission to do the latter. 3) The pyridine contaminated soil would be tilled and aerated using a backhoe at 2-3 day intervals. Soil turning would allow exposure of the contaminated soil to ambient air. Samples would be taken at the beginning of the cleaning operation and continue at weekly intervals until acceptable pyridine levels are reached (2 ppm, reference document #2). When the pyridine level has decreased to zero or an acceptable level the area will be restored and resurfaced according to the owner's requirements. Waste Storage Berlex at the time of inspection was storing waste material in two areas: 1) Outside Fenced Storage Area During facility operations, this was used as a raw material storage area. It consists of a 50' x 20' concrete pad surrounded by a chain-link fence. At the time of inspection, 1, 55-gallon drum containing approximately 40 gallons of a water/toluene mixture was being stored. Other empty 55-gallon drums were also present (see photograph #2 & #3> Outside Drum Storage Area). 2} Warehouse Storage This area was used by Berlex as their major raw material storage area. At the time of inspection, 20, 55-gallon drums of toluene contaminated soil were being stored prior to treatment in the drying oven (see photographs #12, #13, & #14). Large numbers of 55-gallon drums containing raw materials used in production were also being stored in the warehouse. 100439 -6- • Manifested Shipments After the shutdown of plant operations in late 1982, the raw materials which remained on-site in the facility's above-ground storage tank were removed (including toluene and xylene). The transporters and TSD used for these shipments were as follows; Transporters Trailer Marine Transport Corp. PRD980644579 Isla Grande, Puerto Rico Transporte Diaz PRD980526834 Zona Portuaria, Puerto Nuevo, San Juan, Puerto Rico TSD Island Chemical of P.R. Inc. PRD090399718 Km 51, Highway #2, Manati, Puerto Rico The manifests are enclosed as Attachment IV. According to Dr. A. L. Kyles, Vice President of Enviro-Science, the consultant working with Berlex (ICC), 192, 55 - gallon drums of waste was removed from the Berlex (ICC) facility on October 10, 1985. The drum contents consisted of the following material: «* Process pit water and sludge •> Drums and soil from the wastewater drainage line " 1, 55-gallon drum of water/toluene " Toluene contaminated soil No manifest copies were ever received on the shipments from Dr. Kyles. Sampling Procedures On September 9, 1985 samples were taken at Berlex (ICC), St. Croix, Virgin Island from the following areas: " Composite soil sample from the drying oven (left side). Sample #087001 " Composite soil sample from the drying oven (right side). Sample #087002 ' Surface soil composite from the north side of the Lab Waste Drainage Area. Sample #087003 100440 • -7- ° Subsurface soil composite from the north side of the Lab Waste Drainage Area. Sample #087004 " Surface soil composite from the south side of the Lab Waste Drainage Area. Sample #087005 ° Subsurface soil composite from the south side of the Lab Waste Drainage Area. Sample #087006 Attachment III contains copies of the sample data sheets. Within the drying oven, the soil was placed on steel trays and stacked in 13, 20 tray bins. A division of the dryer into the left side and right side was made and a composite sample was taken from a represen- tative number of trays. See Figure 4, for sample locations. Photographs #4 and #5, show the location of the drying oven. To take a more representative sample of the Lab Waste Drainage Area, the area was divided into two sections: north and south. Surface soil samples were taken using trowels and subsurface soil samples (approx. 3 foot depth) were taken using dedicated bucket augers. Due to the very resistant nature of the soil (impermeable clay) only a sample depth of three feet could be obtained. See Figure 5, for sample locations. Photographs #7, #8, #9, #10, and #11, shows the areas of sampling. Sampling equipment and containers were prepared according to EPA stan- dard procedures prior to sampling. A total of six samples were taken. The samples were analyzed for purgeable (POA) and non-volatile (NVOA) organic priority pollutants. All analyses were performed in EPA's Edison, New Jersey laboratory. EPA standard procedures were followed for the collection of samples throughout the survey. Samples were not split with facility representatives. Receipt for samples (Attachment I) and chain-of- custody methods forms (Attachment II) were employed for all samples taken. Sample Results Sample results are given in Table I. Organic analysis on samples #087001 and #087002 (drying oven) detected the following organic compounds ranging in values from 460 ppb to 15,000,000 ppb: toluene, flourene, bis(2-ethyl hexyl) phthal, benzphenone and di-n-octyl phthalate (detected only in sample #087002). 100441 • Organic analysis on samples #087003, #067004, #087005 and-#087006 (lab waste drainage area) detected the following organic compounds ranging in values from 360 ppb to 75,000 ppb: toluene, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, di-n-octyl phthalate, chloroform, benzene and di-n-butyl phthalate. From the results the toluene values were found within the acceptable range of 2 ppm. No laboratory analysis was performed for pyridine due to late arrival of guidance on pyridine protocol from EPA Research Laboratories, Cincinnati. 100442 Reference Documents 1) Enviro-Science Inc., Progress Report, Island Chemical Company, Inc.

Findings and Recoimnendations 1. Drtims of hazardous material are being stored on the Berlex (ICC) site. Environmental Sciences, Inc. (ESI), the facility's contract:or claims that these drtims of chemicals have not been declared "waste" yet and so are not subject to acctxnulation and storage requirements. Most of the drums are the property of Virgin Island Chemical; no representative of this company was present on the site. ESI claims that thirty-three of the drums in storage belong to Berlex (ICC). The other drums (approximately 155) ESI says belong to Virgin Island Chemical. The attached inventory (Attachment 2), prepared by a Virgin Islamd Chemical representative but given to EPA by ESI, contains a listing of the drtims In storage. The number In the Inventory does not match the number counted by EPA. 2. A storm sewer that collects run-off from the facility discharges into a Intermittent stream behind the Berlex (ICC) property. The facility does not have a NPDES permit. 3. The results of the analyses for organics, met:als, and PCB's revealed the following: « Phthalates appeared in all of the samples rauiging from 1000 ug/kg to 17,000 ug/kg in the soil siunples and 3.9 ug/l to 280 ug/l in the water seunple. • Organics contamination was higher In the sample taken from the gut sediments at the point of the drainage pit discharge than In the ot:her seunples . This contaunlnation consisted of xylene, di-n-octyl phthalate, 1,4-dlchlorobenzene, 1,2-dlchlorobenzene, napthalene, flourene, phenemthrene, and aliphatic and aromatic hydroceurbons. • Chloroform appeared in the on-site well at a level of 130 ug/l. • PCB's »rere detected below the detection limit In all six of the samples. " The metals arsenic (estimated value), beryllium (estimated value), chromium (ranging from 10 ug/kg to 52 ug/kg), copper (ranging from 40 ug/kg to 58 ug/kg), lead (estimated value), nickel (ranging from 19 ug/kg to 32 ug/kg), antimony (ramging from 8.4 ug/kg to 10 ug/kg), selenium (estimated value), and zinc (ranging from 63 ug/kg to 360 ug/kg) were all detected In the sediment samples. Arsenic, beryllltsn, cadmlvmi, chromium, copper, mercury, antimony, and zinc were all detected in the water sample at estimated values. 100498 Berlex Laboratories (ICC) VIU980651095 St. Croix, VI Purpose of Survey A RCRA enforcement inspection was conducted a t Berlex Laboratories (otherwise known as Island Chemical Company or ICC ), St. Croix, VI. The survey was conducted a t the request of the Solid Waste Branch to generate additional information necessary to determine the f a c i l i t y ' s coapliance with RCRA r e g u l a t i o n s . The elements of the survey included a review of the f a c i l i t y ' s h i s t o r y ; inspection of the f a c i l i t y ; and the sampling of the stream sediments behind the p l a n t , the laboratory waste p i t , and an o n - s i t e well. Facility History The Berlex (ICC) facility has undergone many changes in ownership since it opened. The owner of the land Itself, that the facility is built on, has remained constant. A local landowner originally leased the land on a 99 year lease. The first operator of the plant was Pierell America, Inc., who stiarted operations in 1972. Tliere were several otJier owners of the facility until 1979, when Berlex Laboratories (ICC) obtained the facility, having merged with the then current owner. Cooper Laboratories. Berlex Laboratories (ICC), a subsidiary of Schearing, began operating in November 1979. Their process involved taking quinidine (found in the eucalyptus tree) and changing isomers in the substance to convert it to quinine. This process contiinued through late 1982. In October 1982 Berlex (ICC) notified EPA of the forthcoming closure and removal of waste materials and excess chemicals (xylene, tioluene) to Inland Chemical of Puerto Rico. EPA assigned Berlex (ICC) the RCRA identJ-fication number VID80651095. Prior to this removal, Berlex (ICC) was operating as a small quantity generator. In 1984 Berlex (ICC) sold t:he facility to Virgin Islemd Chemical. Virgin Island Chemical planned to produce benzyl acetate at the site by reacting benzyl chloride witih acetic acid. Ihis process was in operation for approximately 6-8 months, but ceased when the market price of benzyl acetate plummeted. As part of the sales contract with Virgin Island Chemical, Berlex (ICC) was required to clean up any contamination present at the site. Berlex (ICC) hired Enviro-Sciences, Inc. (ESI) of Denville, NJ, to survey the site and certify it as environmentally clean. ESI's sampling survey disclosed four areas of contuimination. Two areas, between tanks 8 and 9 and concrete slab #3 (see Figure 1) were found to be contiaminated, primarily with toluene. This contamination was thought to i>e from process spills, nie other two areas, along trench #9 and underneath the concrete loading dock, were contaminated primarily with pyridine, thought to be from a leaking laboratory drain. "Hie quantity of contaminants was estimated at 125 pounds of toluene and 120 pounds of pyridine. ESI recommended on-site treatment of this contaminated soil. The toluene contaminated soil was to be placed in a drying oven equipped with carbon filters, so that emission rates did not exceed the 200 ppm TLV for toluene. 100499 -2- The pyridine contaminated soil was to be treated by cutting the concrete pad and tilling the soil every 2-3 days to allow the soil to aerate. A structure was to be built over the area to prevent soil saturation from rainfall. ESI reported by letter on May 15, 1985 that this clean-up would be initiated on June 6, 1985. The Environmental Services Division conducted an inspection of Berlex Laboratories (ICC) on September 9, 1985. The findings of this inspection are summarized in the attached report (Attachment 1) . On October 10, 1985, 192 fifty-five gallon drums of waste were shipped from Berlex (ICC) to Chemical Waste Management in Alabama (see Attachment 2 - Hazardous waste manifests). This waste included: • Toluene contaminated soil which had been treated in the drying oven " Process pit water and sludge ' Drutms and soil from the wastewater drainage line The pyridine contaminated soil reaalned in place. As of March 13, 1986, Virgin Island Chemical is not operating the facility. A warehouse full of drum^ exists on the site. ESI claims that approximately 33 of these drums belong to Berlex (ICC). According to ESI the drums contain mostly laboratory reagents, washings, and miscellaneous materials. Ihese have been sampled by ESI and analysis is currently underway. Ihe remaining drums belong to Virgin Island Chemical. Ihese drums contain raw materials, product, and other incidentals used in the Virgin Island Chemical process. A count of these drums yielded a number of approximately 155. According to an inventory of drums by Virgin Islauid Chemical, ti^ich ESI possessed, the number should have been approximately 208. According to ESI, this inventory may have not been accurate because some of the materials may have been re-sold on the island. A representative of Virgin Island Chemical was not present during the inspection. A listing of the drxm inventory is provided as Figure 2. Presently, plans are being developed for U.S. Resources, Inc. to lease the site from Virgin Island Chemical. A representative of U.S. Resources was present on the site on the day of the inspection and sc»ie of the company's equipment was present on-site. U.S. Resources, Inc. plans to operate the facility as an alcohol conversion plant. The process involves dehydrating alcohol contaminated wit:h water, which is then used to make gasohol. Facility areas/treatment units inspected During the March 1 3 ^ inspection the following areas were inspected and/ or sampled: "Process pit The process pit is an 8,000 gallon underground concrete pit that was used to contain process wastewater and sludge that settled from this wastewater. This pit was cleaned out in 1982 when Berlex (ICC) shut down operations. The sludge and wastewater present in the tank were 100500 -3- disposed of locally. In 1985 ESI tested water which was found accumulating in the tank. The results from this analysis showed contamination consist- ing of benzyl chloride and some heavy metals. The pit was cleaned again and the content:s were shipped to Chemical Waste Management in Alabama as "hazardous waste liquid, N.O.S". This tank was not sampled during the March 13^^ inspection, as originally planned, because it was sealed with concrete after the 1985 clean-out. "Toluene drying oven The oven used for the treatment of toluene contaminated soil was found to be empty during the March 1 3 ^ inspection (see photos 1 and 2). According to ESI's representatu.ve, the soil present during EPA's September 9, 1985 inspection was shipped to Chemical Waste Management in October 1985. "Pyridine contaminated pad The concrete pad located behind t:he Berlex (ICC) facility was the area of pyridine contamination. The pad was broken up and the soil tilled every 2-3 days as treatment for the removal of pyridine as specified in ESI's workplan. At the time of the March 1 3 ^ inspection the area was uncovered, and according to ESI, had not been tilled recently. Two samples, #085254 and #085255, were taken from this area. A composite of the soil from the surface to a three foot depth was obtained. A seunple, #085252, was also taken from a suspected area of seepage into the intermittent stream behind the Berlex (ICC) plant. This soil sample was a composite from the surface to approximately 10 inches in deptJi. A background soil sample, #085251, was also taken upstream of the Berlex property for comparison purposes. "Storm water sewer According to ESI, the original storm water sewer at the facility consisted of old, clean toluene drtims welded together and attached to a concrete line. In Octusber 1985 the line vras excavated and the drums were found to be corroded. Sludge was found to be accumulated in the bottom of the line. The drums, sludge, and two feet of soil were removed and shipped out. A new PVC line was installed (see photo 3). Although this storm water sewer discharges into an intermittent stream located at the edge of tihe property, the facility does not possess a NPDES permit. Sampling done earlier in this area by ESI revealed higher than background levels of zinc, cadmium, chromium, and lead. A soil sample, #085253, was taken at the point of discharge to the intermittent stream. During sampling, a tropical rainstorm developed, and water was observed discharging from the pipe (see photos 4 and 5). "Production well During tJie inspection a production well was discovered on-site. The well was not in use at the time, but was still operable. ESI had no knowledge 100501 • -4- of y.'s ^-lurpose, depth, or construction of the well or which owner of the facility had installed or used it. A water sample, #085256, was liaken from this well (see photo 6). "Drum storage area A v a r i e t y of chemicals are presently being stored in a warehouse located on the Berlex (ICC) property. According t o ESI, the drums contain raw materials, product, and i n c i d e n t a l s from Virgin Island Chemical and Berlex (ICC) . Approxi- mately 188 drums were found to be stored during the March 13^^^ inspection (see photos 7, 8, 9, and 10 ), Attachment 2 l i s t s the name and quantity of waste stored, according t o Virgin Island Chemical's inventory and ESI's statements. Sampling procedures A total of six samples were taken from the Berlex (ICC) facility (see Figure 2- Map of sampling points). Three of the six samples were teJcea from the intermittent stream (known as the "gut") that runs along the edge of the Berlex (ICC) property. The first sample taken, #085251, was a background soil sample to be used as a comparison to the other samples taken from the gut. The sample was taken from the surface mud using E>olyethylene scoops and mixed on Benchkote paper to insure repesentative split samples. The sample was analyzed for purgeable organics (POA's), non-volat:ile organics (NVOA's), PCB's, and metals. The second and third samples, #085252 and #085253, were soil samples taken from areas of the gut directly behind the Berlex (ICC) facility. Sample #085252 was taken from an area behind the laboratory drainage pit tirhere drainage nay have seeped into the gut. Sample #085253 was taken from the area of the gut where the storm sewer discharges. Both of these soil samples were t^aJcen from the surface to a depth of 10" using a stainless steel hand auger. The first core from the auger was discarded to minimize cross-contamination; the remaining cores were mixed on Benchkote paper in order to obtain a well- mixed representative sample. Both of the samples were analyzed for POA's, NVOA's, PCB's and metals. Two soil samples were obtained from the laboratory waste drainage pit. The first sample, #085254, was taken approximately 10 feet from the building, and the second,#085255, approximately 20 feet from the building. The stainless steel bucket auger (rinsed with water and deionized water) was used to obtain cores to a depth of 3 feet. The cores were nixed on Benchkote paper in order to obtain a representative and well-nixed sample. Both of the samples vrere analyzed for POA's, NVOA's, PCB's, and metals. The sixth sample, #085256, was obtained from the production well located on the site. Since the vrell was of indeterminate diameter and depth, a precise determination of the volume of water to be removed could not be made. By considering the average depth to groundwater in the area of the Berlex (ICC) facility, and the apparent size of the well casing, it was estimated that purging 150 gallons from the well would remove 3-5 times the well volume and samples representative of the groundwater would be obtained. Consequently, the well was pumped for 6 minutes and 20 seconds, removing 170 gallons of water. The sample was then taken directly form the plastic hose attached to the well head to minimize damage to the well head. 100502 -5- All samples were split, with ESI acting for the facility. The seunples were collected in appropriate containers and preserved according to EPA protocol. All samples were shipped on ice the following day to EPA's Edison laboratory. Results of Analysis The results of the analysis of the sediment and water samples are summarized on three teOiles. Taible 1 presents a list of organic compounds for which analyses were conducted. This list does not include compotinds which the laboratory may have identified as major peaks. Table 2 shows the orgemic compounds that were identified In the samples collected. Table 3 lists the results of the metal scam analysis. Most of the samples showed some organics contamination. All of the seunples. Including the backgrotind sample taken In the gut, contained phthalates, chiefly dl-n-octyl phthalate, with butyl benzyl phthalate and bls(2-ethyl hexyl phthalate also appearing In a few samples. These values ranged from 1000 ugAg to 17,000 ug/kg in the soil samples and 3.9 ug/l to 280 ug/l In the water sample. The results from the sample taken in the gut, at the point ttfhere the drainage line dlscheurges (#085253), showed more contamination. This sample contained xylene, 1,4-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dlchlorobenzene, dl-n-octyl phthalate, napthalene, flourene, phenanthrene, and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. The on-site well results showed contamination with chloroform. The PCB analysis results showed the presence of PCB's below the detection limit In all of the samples. The restilts of the metals analyses, for the sediment samples, showed varying levels of arsenic, beryllltim, chrcxnlum, copper, lead, nickel, antimony, selenium, and zinc. The results of the metals analyses for the water seunple showed estimated levels of arsenic, beryllltsn, cadmlvm, chromltsn, copper, merctiry, antimony, and zinc. The value for chromltm in the sediment samples increased from the backgrotond level of 10 ug/kg to 52 ug/kg at the point of the drainage pit discharge, finally leveling off to 25 amd 27 ug/kg in the lab waste pit. The vad.ue for copper remained fairly constamt through all the samples. The value for zinc decreased from background to the point «^ere the laQ> waste pit seeped Into the gut, but Increased to a high of 360 ug/kg at the point where the drainage pit discharged Into the gut. The value leveled off to 79 and 80 ug/kg In the lab traste pit. The value for nickel was also higher at the point %«here the drainage pit discharged Into the gut, with as value of 32 ug/kg. 100503 Berlex Laboratories St. Croix, VI VID980651095 2.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This investigation would not have been possible without the support and cooperation of several individuals and agencies. Ms. Francine Lang, Acting Director of the Division of Natural Resource Management of the De- partment of Conservation and Cultural Affairs, was closely involved in all phases of the project, and provided staff for support of the field work. Members of Ms. Lang's staff who provided assistance included Mr. William Mortensen, Ms. Lori Hall, Mr. -.V. Sealy, and Ms. Joan Sams. The cooperation of the Department of Public Works was essential to the successful testing and samoling of the public-supply well fields on St. Croix. Commissioner Arnold Golden lent invaluable assistance in the form of his expertise and allocation of personnel. Members of Commissioner Golden's staff who assisted during this phase of the field work included Mr. Esdelle Hansen, Mr. Mirko Restovic, and Mr. Mendez and his well-field crew. Mr. Harold Rolle of the Virgin Islands Housing Authority coordinated several aspects of the investigation on St. Thomas. Ms. Andrea Sklarew of the Environmental Protection Agency orovided continuous support and insight throughout the entire project. 100535 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As a basis for preparing a groundwater management program for the U.S. Virgin Islands, Geraghty ^ Miller, Inc., assessed groundwater conditions in St. Croix and St. Thomas. This report presents the findings of the techni- cal investigation carried out in the first half of 1982. Recommendations for management of the groundwater resource are presented in the Groundwater Management Plan for the U.S. Virgin Islands, a document being submitted seoarately. The malor emohasis of the technical investigation focused on public- supoly well fields on St. Croix. The Kingshill Limestone in central St. Croix and the alluvial denosits in valleys are the most prolific groundwa- ter-oroducing formations. Most groundwater on St. Croix is mineralized and contains chloride and total dissolved solids concentrations in excess of USEPA drinking water standards. The salinity of groundwater usually in- creases with increasing deoth and proximity to the sea. Well construction and operational practices in St. Croix's public-sup- ply well fields are not fully adequate to insure the quality and quantity of the groundwater resource. Record-keeping orocedures are similarly in- sufficient. Controlled oumoing tests were carried out at the Fairplain and Barren Spot well fields. Sewage odors were detected in some of the wells in the Fairolain well field. Evaluation of historical water-quality trends at the Fairolain well field indicates a direct relationship between pumpage and salinity of groundwater. .^ 100536 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. The limestone aguifer penetrated at the Barren Sppt well field is one of the more permeable formations on St. Croix, and there is a possibility that additional groundwater can be developed in this area. Barium concen- trations in excess of the USEPA drinkinq water standard of 1.0 mg/L and pentane were detected in water samples from Barren Soot wells. Prior to increasing the groundwater withdrawal at Barren Soot, field studies should be carried out to assess ootential groundwater contamination from saline water and oetroleum products. Water samples were collected from 78 public-supply and orivate wells on St. Croix for inorganic analysis. A zone of groundwater high in total dissolved solids exists along the central portion of the south coast, and a zone of highly mineralized groundwater is present in the north-central part of the island. There are two zones of groundwater with elevated nitrate concentrations: the Cruzan Rum-airport-Negro Bay area, and the Barren Soot- Ruhy-Zion Farm area. The exact number and the condition of orivate wells in St. Croix is uncertain: inadeguate well construction practices and de- terioration of some wells may be exposing key aquifers to contamination. Areas on St. Croix with a ootential for future groundwater develooment have been identified. In St. Thomas, groundwater resources in the uooer Turpentine Run basin are heavily exploited. Wells in the upoer Turpentine Run basin derive wa- ter from fracture zones and weathered portions of volcanic rock formations. Groundwater aooropriations awarded in the upper basin are currently in ex- cess of 1,000,000 gallons per day, but the actual daily pumpage is not known. iii 100537 Geraghty &. Miller, Inc. Nitrate concentrations' in excess of the USEPA drinking water standard were detected in the water from Virgin Islands Housing Authority (VIHA) y wells at the Tutu project. Organic solvents were detected in a water sam- ple from one VIMA well. A limited well sampling orogram was carried out in the uDper Turpentine Run basin. Chloride concentrations in groundwater in the upper basin are generally below USEPA drinking water standards, total dissolved solids concentrations are usually in excess of the USEPA drinking i water standard. i^ 100538 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. Oi REPORT ON CURRENT GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS IN THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS INTRODUCTION In December 1981, the Deoartment of Conservation and Cultural Affairs (DCCA) of the U.S. Virgin Islands retained Geraghty A Miller, Inc., ground- water consultants, to assess the present condition of the groundwater re- sources of the Territory and to establish a groundwater management orogram. The primary objectives of this program are to protect the quality of the groundwater in the U.S. Virgin Islands and to maximize the long-term pro- ductivity of the resource. As a basis for preparing the groundwater management program which will be the second phase of this project, Geraghty 4 Miller, Inc., carried out a preliminary assessment of groundwater conditions on St. Croix and St. Thom- as (see Fiqure 1). Limitations imposed by budqet and time precluded study- inq every public-supply well field in the Virgin Islands in detail. Of the three principal U.S. Virgin Islands, St. Croix has exoerienced the greatest development of its groundwater resources and therefore re- ceived more emohasis throuqhout the investiqation. The island of St. John apparently has sufficient water supply to satisfy the present demands of its inhabitants. Since the water-supply issue is not a critical issue as it is in the two more heavily copulated islands, the qrpundwater resources of St. John were not assessed in detail during this study.

The other public-supply well fields on Croix were studied in less de- tail. A well samoling orogram was carried out to map water-quality zones in central and western St. Croix and the Tutu basin on St. Thomas. Recommendations for rectifyinq the critical groundwater quality orob- lems and obtaininq the maximum benefit from the available groundwater re- sources in the Territory .fere presented in the Groundwater Management Plan for the U.S. Virgin Islands. This management plan is submitted as a sepa- rate document. 100541 Geraghty & Miller. Inc. _3_ PREVIOUS WORK The geology of the three major U.S. Virgin Islands has been studied and mapoed in considerable detail (Donnelly, 1966; Whetten, 1966). The wa- ter resources of St. Thomas and St. John have been addressed in separate reports comoiled by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) (Jordan and Cosner, 1973; Cosner, 1972). Each of these reports included an evaluation of the groundwater ootential of J:he resoective islands. The Turpentine Run basin (which includes the heavily peculated Tutu area) on St. Thomas has been the subject of more detailed groundwater studies (Adams and Associates, 1978; Reed and Robison, 1972). The groundwater resources of St. Croix have been investigated in greater detail. Earlier studies (Cederstrom, 1950; Tippetts, Abbett, McCarthy, Stratton, 1959; Hendrickson, 1963) inventoried the existing wells and interpreted the available geologic, hydrologic, and water-guality in- formation. Cederstrom (1950) summarized the results of a test well drill- ing program carried out by the Civilian Conservation Coros in 1940-41 at various locations on St. Croix. Hendrickson (1963) evaluated six oublic- supply well fields, conducted pumping tests, and made recommendations for water-level and water-guality monitoring. Two studies of St. Croix's groundwater resources were published by the USGS in the early 1970's. Robison (1972) evaluated the groundwater in cen- tral St. Croix, identified areas for future exploration, and proposed vari- ous schemes for utilizing the brackish water reserves in the Kingshill Lime- stone. Jordan (1975) authored a more detailed study of the hydroqeology of 100542 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -4- St. Croix, including water-table maps, cross-sections based on well logs, and maps delineating groundwater guality zones on the' island. The USGS has also comoiled surface-water and groundwater data for the oeriod of 1962 to 1969 for all three Virgin Islands (Robison, et al, 1973). The consulting firm of Black, Crow, and Eidsness, Inc., submitted a water management plan for St. Croix to DCCA (Black, Crow, and Eidsness, Inc., 1976). That plan included a history of the develooment of water re- sources on the island, and an evaluation of well drilling practices and groundwater conditions. 0. Krisen Euros, then of Black, Crow, and Eids- ness, Inc., and now with CH^M Hill, investigated the feasibility of re- charging the groundwater in the Golden Grove area with treated wastewater (Buros, 1976). As part of that study, Buros collected water-level and groundwater-guality data in the River Gut basin from 1971 to 1975. 100543 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -5- HYDROGEOLOGIC FRAMEWORK OF ST. CROIX The geology and groundwater resources of St. Croix have been studied by several investigators, as summarized in the previous section. Ceder- strom (1950) prepared a geologic map of the island, on which he located the wells in existence at that time. Whetten (1966) presented a more detailed analysis of the qeoloqy and qeoloqic history. Fiqure 2, adapted from Whet- ten's (1966, 1974) maps, iJepicts the major qeoloqic formations exoosed on St. Croix. Cretaceous Formations The oldest rocks exposed on St. Croix are sedimentary rocks of late Cretaceous aqe. These rocks are composed of sediment derived from erodinq volcanic rocks and volcanic ash and debris (Whetten, 1974). Whetten (1966) referred to these Cretaceous rocks as the Mount Eagle Group and recognized several distinct formations. The oldest unit, the Caledonia Formation, is composed of thin, alternating mudstones, siltstones, and sandstones, pre- sumably deposited by turbidity currents in a deep ocean hasin. The Caledo- nia turbidites grade laterally and upward into several formations that are characterized by tuffs, tuffaceous sandstones, and siliceous mudstones, with a few thin limestone beds. These formations are, from oldest • to youngest, the Allendale, Cane Valley, and Judith Fancy Formations. The late Cretaceous rocks underlie the topographically high areas in the eastern third of the island and the Northside Range that forms the steep hills in the northwest. These older rocks have experienced intense 100544 tN C A R I B B E A N S E A futocmHijeo '<k%^i ^ * ^ > < C A R I B B E A N S E A t MILES a EXPLANATION ALLUVIUM ANOBEACH DEPOSITS KINGSHILL ANO YOUNGER LIMESTONE JEALOUSY FORMATION TUFFACEOUS FORMATIONS CALEDONIA FORMATION INTRUSIVE IGNEOUS ROCKS ® RIVER GUT ® BETHLEHEM GUT ® SALT RIVER NOTE: MODIFED AFTER WHETTEN (1966.1974) GENERALIZED GEOLOGIC MAP OF ST CROIX rat MNI 0 '0* GOVeRNNCNT OF U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS- CONSERVATION ANO CULTURAL AFFAIRS Cieraghiy & Miller.

Strata are usually steeply inclined and are transected by several sets of fractures and small-scale faults'. Several anticlines and synclines, and at least one thrust fault, have been identified in the late Cretaceous sequence (Whetten, 1974). The permeability of the late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks is generally low: groundwater movement is mostly restricted to zones of fractures and joints. Wells drilled in these formations usually yield very modest amounts of water, yields being greatest where alluvial deposits overlie the bedrock (Jorcan, 1975). The quality of water in these rocks is reported to be qenerally qood in the central mountains. In coastal areas and in the easternmost third of the island, the groundwater tends to be brackish (Ce- derstrom, 1950; Jordan, 1975). Intrusive Rocks The late Cretaceous rocks have been intruded in two places by igneous rocks. These intrusions, the Fountain Gabbro in the northwest and the S'authgate Diorite in the east, weather easily, and prominent valleys have Formed where they are exposed (Whetten, 1974). The area underlain by the Fountain Gabbro has a mantle of alluvium and deeply weathered rock and yields moderate amounts of water to wells. Previous sampling programs have indicated that the quality of the groundwater in the gabbro is generally very good in comparison to that of the groundwater in the rest of the is- land (Jordan, 1975). The qroundwater in the Southqate Diorite is reported to be more hiqhly mineralized, particularly in the vicinity of the salt ponds located on the north and south shores. The yields of wells drilled 100546 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -7- in the Southgate Diorite are not as high as those in the Fountain Gabbro (Jordan, 1975). Jealousy Formation The geologic structure of St. Croix's central valley is that of a qra- ben, a downthrown block formed by normal faulting in the middle (and per- haps early) Tertiary (Whetten, 1966). During that time St. Croix consisted of two islands of deformed Cretaceous rocks separated by a marine hasin, or "seaway" (Multer, et al., 1977), in which as much as 7,000 feet of sediment accumulated (see Figure 3). ^ Deposited unconformably on the late Cretaceous rocks is the Jealousy Formation of Oligocene age. The Jealousy Formation, in the few exposures along the southern flank of the Northside Range, is characterized by cal- careous conglomerates. These pogrly stratified sediments consist of peb- bles and cobbles of tuffaceous sandstone and diorite, pockets of clay, and a calcareous, clayey, sandy matrix (Whetten, 1966). The conglomerates grade into a thick seguence of clay to the south. Two test wells drilled during Cederstom's investigation at Jealousy and Bethlehem penetrated clay and conglomerate below the Kingshill Limestone. The test well at Bethle- hem, in the middle of the central valley, penetrated 1,400 feet of clayey strata of Oligocene age, with only two thin (5 and 16 feet) layers of con- glomerate (Cederstrom, 1950). The clays are nowhere exposed on the sur- face, but cuttings from the test wells have been studied for their micro- fossils and clay mineralogy. Whetten (1966) suggested that the bulk of the clay was derived from the alteration of volcanic ash deposited in the suh- 100547 NORTHWEST SOUTHEAST IOOO' SOO' • L U I MOUNTAI -oooM -IOOO •ieoo!l -tooo' C A H I t a t A M se/k I f yet SALT HiveM IMHTOMI ^3r^Kiiil«»MlLi. t WORK AND REST C A H I B B C A N S£A SEA l e v i L NOTE: MODIFIED AFTER GERHARD, tt. ol.

The bottom of the Jealousy'clays was not encoun- tered, hence the maximum thickness of the Jealousy Formation is not known. A gravity survey (Shurbert, et al., 1956) indicated that the central valley is approximately 7,000 feet thick, but nothing is known of the sediments that lie below the Jealousy clays oenetrated in the Bethlehem test well. Jordan (1975) and Cederstrom (1950) both described the Jealousy as "not a water-bearing formation". Jordan indicated that the exposed con- glomerate has a low oermeability and contains brackish to saline qroundwa- ter. Hendrickson (1963) stated that the conqlomerate "aooears to be moder- ately oermeable" where exposed in outcrop, but noted the test well drilled at Jealousy under Cederstrom's suoervision yielded no water from the Jeal- ousy conqlomerates. Both Hendrickson and Jordan stressed Cederstrom's as- sertion of the hydroloqic imoortance of the thick sequence of Jealousy clays, as it may serve to restrict the upward flpw of saline water into the overlyinq Kinqshill Limestone. In practice well drillers on St. Croix con- sider the too of the Jealousy Formation as the effective lower limit for water wells. Kinqshill Limestone Limestones, chalks and marls of Miocene age overlie the Jealousy For- mation and are exposed over much of St. Croix's central valley. This car- bonate sequence attains a thickness of 600 feet in places in the western oart of the valley, but in most areas is considerably thinner, due to ero- sion. Most authors (Cederstrom, 1950: Whetten, 1966; and others) have re- 100549 Geraghty & Miller. Inc. -9- ferred to all of the carbonate rocks exposed on St. Croix as the Kinqshill Marl. Recent work (Gerhard, et al., 1978: Multer, et al., 1977) has iden- tified relatively thin deoosits of younqer reef limestones of late Miocene or Pliocene aqe deposited unconformably on the Miocene limestones and marls. Gerhard, et al., (1978) have, therefore, proposed the name Kinqshill Lime- stone for the volumetrically more important carbonates of early middle Mio- cene aqe. The Kinqshill Limestone comprises several different interbedded lith- oloqies. Surface exposures and well loqs indicate three dominant rock types: sandy to conglomeratic marls comoosed of terriqeneous material and calcareous skeletal debris: indurated chalks of pelagic biogenic oriqin: and calcarenites (calcareous sandstones) deposited in a shelf or near-reef environment (Multer, et al., 1977; Gerhard, et al., 1978). The chalks and marls form the dominant litholoqy over most of the exposed area of the Kinqshill Limestone, particularly in the upper part of the sequence, and in the area west of River and Bethlehem Guts (see Figure 2). The calcarenite, the most permeable of the Kingshill facies, is more predominant in the southeast portion of the central valley. Well logs indicate that the pro- portion of calcarenite increases with depth (Jordan, 1975). In general, the permeability of the chalks-and marls is low, but solution cavities of vari- ous sizes have been identified at several localities, notably Paradise and Enfield Green (Cederstrom, 1950), the Frederiksted area (Jordan, 1975), and the Hess Oil refinery on the south coast (Gerhard, et al., 1978). The solu- tion cavities in the Frederiksted and Hess areas attain diameters of 3 to 7 feet or laroer. 100550 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. _.^g_ The quality of water in the Kinqshill Limestone is hiqhly variable. In general, the salinity of the qroundwater in the central valley increases with depth. Jordan (1975) indicates that in many areas in the central val- ley, the upper 50 feet of the saturated Kinqshill Limestone may contain qroundwater with less than 500 milligrams per liter (mg/L) of chloride, while at a depth of 150 feet below the water table, the concentration can exceed 3,000 mg/L. Almost all of the groundwater in the Kinqshill Lime- stone contains chloride concentrations in excess of 250 mq/L and total dis- solved solids (TDS) in excess of 500 mg/L, the maximum levels set in the USEPA secondary drinking water standards. In the cavernous sections of the Kinqshill Limestone in the Frederiksted area, the groundwater is brackish (Jordan, 1975: Hendrickson, 1963). Jordan (1975) claimed there is a zone of hiqhly saline qroundwater at the foot of the Cretaceous hills alonq the northern edqe of the central valley, particularly in the area of Mon Bi.iou. Jordan suqqested that the hiqh salinity of the groundwater in this inland area may be due to the presence of connate (fossil) sea water or upward mi- qration of saline water from the Jealousy Formation. Cederstrom (1950) stated that the Kinqshill carbonates are in general a poor water-bearing formation. Wells drilled since Cederstrom's investi- gation indicate that the Kingshill Limestone is the most oroductive aauifer on St. Croix (Hendrickson, 1963: Robison, 1972). The maximum saturated thickness of the Kinqshill Limestone is approximately 200 feet, and in cer- tain areas, the formation can yield in excess of 100 qallnns per minute (qpm) to wells screened over the full saturated thickness (Robison, 1972). The advantages of obtaining greater quantities of water from the deeper 100551 Geraghty & Miller. Inc. -11- portions of the Kinqshill Limestone may be offset by the increase in salin- ity of the groundwater with deoth. Robison estimated that the total amount of water stored in the Kinqshill Limestone approaches 130 billion gallons, of which approximately one third has a total dissolved solids content under 6,000 mq/L. In general, the permeability of the carbonate sequence is lower in the middle of the central valley and greatest in the southeast (Jordan, 1975). / The Kingshill Limestone is the principal aquifer taoped by the oublic- supply well fields at Barren Spot, Concordia, and Negro Bay. Buros (1976) indicated that, in the Negro Bay area, the qroundwater is under a consider- able amount of artesian pressure, as a result of hard limestone layers that function as confininq beds. Alluvium Recent alluvial deposits mantle much of the area underlain by the Kinqshill Limestone and have filled in valleys eroded into the carbonate sequence. Alluvial deoosits also attain considerable thickness in the val- ley alonq Mahoqany Road north of Frederiksted and in the valleys underlain by the Fountain Gab'bro and the Southgate Diorite. The thickest deposits of alluvium are located along the lower reaches of intermittent streams, nota- bly Salt River and Bethlehem and River Guts (see Figure 3). The maximun thickness of the alluvial deposits is probably at the mouth of River Gut, where the alluvium is approximately 100 feet thick. The alluvium is composed mostly of montmorillinitic clay of verv low 100552 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -12- permeability .(Robison, 1972; Buros, 1976). In some localities, it is dif- ficult to distinquish the alluvial clay from the underlyinq and surroundinq marl (Robison, 1972). Interbedded with the clay are thin (usually 2 to 4 feet) lenses of terriqeneous sand and qravel. In qeneral, the proportion of sand and gravel increases seaward, although pockets of coarse material were deposited at the foot of the Cretaceous hills where intermittent ^ streams transect the limestone lowlands. The valleys that have intermit- tent surface drainage (Saft River, "^.ethlehem Gut, River Gut) have a hiqher percentaqe of sand and gravel, wnile valleys with no surface drainage (Bar- ren Spot, Castle Coakley) have a higher percentage of silty, marly clay and lower overall permeability in the alluvium (Jordan, 1975). The deqree of ii interconnection of the sand and qravel lenses in the orincioal valleys is ^ B uncertain, but drillinq proqrams have indicated that many layers of coarse material are isolated and limited in horizontal extent (Buros, 1'»76). i Many private and public wells tap the alluvial deposits. The alluvium is the principal aquifer at the Fairplain, Golden Grove, and Adventure well fields, and to a larqe degree at Mahoqany Road and La Granqe as well. ! Yields from the alluvial aquifer are hiqhly variable. Most of the ground- i water in the alluvium appears to be under partially confined conditions. ^ Cederstrom (1950) stated that the upper sand layers in the lower valley of River Gut contain groundwater under water-table, or unconfined, conditions, whereas the deeper sands exhibit artesian pressures. Bui^os (1976) suggest- ed that all of the water in the alluvium was confined and that there are probably no water-table aguifers on St. Croix. 1 0 0 5 5 3 Geraehtv & Miller, Inc. -13- The quality of the water in the alluvium is qenerally good to fair (Hendrickson, 1963). Drought conditions or prolonged pumping of wells tap- ping alluvial deposits usually cause a deterioration in water quality, es- pecially in coastal areas. Deterioration of the quality of inland alluvial aquifers is thought to be due to the introduction of more saline water from surrounding limestones (Jordan, 1975). 100554 Geraghty & Miller. Inc. _.. GENERAL CONDITIONS OF WELL FIELDS ON ST. CROIX Seven well fields are currently ooerated and maintained bv the Deoart- ment of Public Works (DPW) for oublic water supply on St. Croix (Fiqure 4). The Fairplain, Neqro Bay, and Golden Grove well fields are at times re- ferred to as one well field for ooerational purposes; in this report each will be considered a separate unit. / Almost all of the wells used for oublic supply were drilled over the last 50 years by local well-drilling contractors with cable-tool drillinq riqs. The wells have been constructed with 6- or 8-inch casino, usually perforated or slotted from the water table to the finished deoth. The older wells were all constructed with steel oipe: in recent years plastic (PVC) has been installed in some of the wells drilled for oublic supply. I The amount and quality of available hydroqeoloqic information varies for » the individual well fields, but is generally sufficient to indicate the i geologic nature of the water-bearing strata. Historically, the collection of water-level and water-quality informa- I tion has been sporadic, and much of the data are unreliable. Most of the reliable data have been derived from the studies cited in orevious sec- ^ tions. Records reqardinq ooerational pumoinq rates and sustained yields of individual wells are usually not available. At present there appears to be no reliable method for determining the total daily or monthly pumpaqe from each well field. St. Croix's public well fields currently provide a steady supply of 100555 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -15- qroundwater, but there are certain ooerational problems which should be ad- dressed. DPW employees, by soundinq the wells when'pumos are reoaired or changed, have noted a gradual, and in some cases significant, decrease in the depths of particular wells. Many of the older wells aooear to have suffered considerable corrosion of the steel casing. As a result, some of these wells may have partially collapsed, causing a significant decrease in their yield. Wells in which the casing is still intact may have experi- enced substantial filling 'with silt and sand brought in to the well through the perforations in the casing. This infilling will have a detrimental ef- fect on the yield of a well as a oortion of the water-bearing zone is sealed off. The influx of sand and silt into the well can also cause seri- ous damage to the internal parts of the installed pumos. Subsidence of the ground surface around many wells has caused the ce- ment base to crack, increasing the susceptability of the wells and water- bearing formations to contamination. There are many old wells, particular- ly in the area between the Golden Grove and Fairplain well fields, that are ro longer in use and have not been properly sealed. These old wells can act as oassageways for surface contamination with direct access to impor- tant aguifers. One serious oroblem, which has been dealt with only superficially or not at all in orevious reports, is the accumulation of lubricating oil in the wells and at various ooints in the distribution system. At present, all but one well (Concordia-1) pumped for oublic supply on St. Croix are eguipped with oil-lubricated, line-shaft pumos. Lubricating oil is leaking 100556 Geraghtv & Miller, Inc. ., — - — I o— • into the wells due to malfunctioning lubricating systems: in some wells in the Fairplain and Barren Spot well fields as much as 8 feet of black oil was detected floating on top of the water in 1982. During the pumping tests in March 1982 in these two well fields and the sampling of other well fields, it was apparent that oil has accumulated at various points in the piping that carries water from the wells to the storage tanks in each well field. At some points the accumulation of coagulated oil and other debris may be severely restricting the flow of water through the oioing. Oil has also coated the inside of many of the water storage tanks at the well fields. The periodic influx of lubricatinq oil into the potable water dis- tribution system poses serious water-quality oroblems. At present the construction of some of the older wells is such that accurate measurement of static or pumpinq water levels is not possible. Some of the wells installed in the last 20 years have an openinq at the top or on the side of the cement base. These openings allow for measure- ment of static water levels in some cases, providing the measuring device can pass through the 45° bend at the top of the cement base. The lack of a sounding pipe that extends from the surface to the lowest possible pumping level precludes the accurate determination of the water level when the pump is operating, due to the cascading of water that can occur in a Dumping well. In addition, the thick accumulation of oil in many of the wells in- terferes with the accurate measurement of water levels using standard elec- tric devices, necessitating the use of a steel tape with chalk. The con- struction of most of the wells, however, does not provide sufficient access for a steel tape and weights. 1 0 0 5 5 7 • Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -17- Regular, accurate measurements of static and pumoing water levels in the wells and oeriodic qroundwater-guality analysis- would enable DPW and DCCA to better assess changing qroundwater conditions. Such data would also orovide advance warning of declining pumping levels or increasing sa- linity that could cause damaqe to the installed pumos and other equioment. 100558 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -18- FAIRPLAIN WELL FIELD A controlled pumping test was carried out in the Fairplain well field in March 1982. The Fairplain well field is one of the major sources of groundwater for oublic supply and is located at the junction of two of the larger alluvial valleys in central St. Croix (see Figure 5). Due to its proximity to the sea, the Fairplain well field may be relatively suceptible to upconinq or intrusion of sea water, and in fact, there have been several reports of individual wells "qoinq salt" (Comm. A. Golden, pers. comm., 1982: Buros, 1976). The Fairplain well field is also susceptible to con- tamination that may originate from reported breaks in the sanitary sewer mains that are oriented parallel to the courses of River and Bethlehem Gut. Periodic operational problems at the central wastewater treatment plant, south of Fairplain, have resulted in the accumulation of untreated wastewa- ter in the bed of River Gut south of the airport .road (see Figure 5 ) . Much of the lower course of River Gut, from the confluence with Bethlehem Gut to the ocean, resembles a series of ponds more than a stream, the pondinq caused by localized accimulations of sediment and debris. There are currently nine wells in the Fairplain well field (Fiqure 6 ) . At the time of the field investiqation and pumoinq test, five wells (FP-4, FP-5, FP-7, FP-8, and FP-9) were equipoed with pumps and were operational. Several months later, pumps were reinstalled and connected to the distribu- tion system in two additional wells (FP-1 and FP-6). 100559 E X P L A N A T I O N = = : ROAD INTERMITTENT STREAM PROPERTY BOUNDARY • WELL LOCATION < RM WELL NUMBER ' ' ^ ^ PUBLIC-SUPPLY WELL RELD I ALLUVIUM-FILLED VALLEY a COASTAL PLAIN OUTCROP OF KINGSHILL LIMESTONE soon.

This well, 58 feet deep, and aoparently drilled prior to 1938, may be one of the existing wells currently identified as FP-7 and FP-8 (see Figure 6), or may have been abandoned long aqo. Cederstrom suoervised the drillinq and installation of a well (45a) "near the existinq well (45b)" sometime between 1938 and, 1940. Well 45a was drilled to a deoth of 225 feet penetrating 73 feet of clluvial clays, sands, and gravels, 125 feet of marl and limestone, and 17 feet of blue clay of the Jealousy Formation (see Figure 7). The exact location and current status of Well 45a is uncertain. Some investigators (Black, Crow, and Eidsness, Inc., 1976) have concluded that the existing Well FP-8 is Well 45a, but Well FP-8 was sounded prior to the March 1982 pumping test, and is currently only 60 feet deep. Long-time DPW emoloyees have suggested that Well 45a was located somewhere to the north and west of current Well FP-8, and may have been covered during the construction of the new highway. Cederstrom (1950) carried out a pumping test on Well 45a soon after it was drilled and developed. From the pump test, carried out for 52 hours at pumping rates ranging from 53 to 80 gpm, he calculated the soecific capaci- ty of the well to range from 4.52 to 5.55 gpm/ft. The well was lout into service to provide water for the Bethlehem Sugar Factory .narth.-of.Jaixplain; in 1943 the well was reportedly being pumoed at a rate of 40 gpm (Ceder- strom, 1950).

Three test holes and three test wells were drilled "in the deep alluvium-filled valley 1/4 to 1/2 mile north of the Fairplain well (45a)" (Cederstrom, 1950). From this descriotion, these wells were apparently drilled northwest of the current Fairplain well field. Buros (1976) has located several wells in the area of Estate Golden Grove (see Figure 5) and reports that several are no longer in use. Later studies report that in the late 1950's, three wells in the area northwest of Fairplain were connected to supply water to the airoort; at that time only one of these was being pumped at a rate of approximately 5,000 gallons per day (gpd) (Tippetts, Abbett, McCarthy, Stratton, 1959). a • As recently as 1962, only one well was inventoried in the area encomoassed , by the current Fairolain well field: this well was apparently in the vicin- , ity of FP-8 or FP-9 (Hendrickson, 1963), and may be one of these two wells. By 1972, all of the nine Fairplain wells currently ooerated by DPW were in existence. Of these, three wells (FP-1, FP-3, and FP-4) were re- portedly drilled in 1970 (Black, Crow, A Eidsness, Inc., 1976). The date of installation of the remaining wells is uncertain. Unfortunately, accu- rate drillinq loqs for the nine existing wells were not available during the course of this investiqation. Currently, as many as seven wells in the Fairolain well field are- pumped continuously. Wells are periodically taken out of service for re- pair of pumpinq equipment. Durinq the period from 1972 to 1975, Wells FP-3, FP-6, and FP-4 were taken out of service because of hiqh choride content of 100564 Geraghty &. Miller, Inc. -21- the water (Buros, 1976). Well FP-3 is still not pumped, but FP-4 has been PLsnped at least since 1980. Well FP-6 was reconnected to the system in May 1982. Well FP-2 was drilled as a test well some time prior to 1971 and went dry 10 minutes after test pumpinq beqan (Comm. A. Golden, oers. comm., I 1982). This well has reportedly never been equipoed with a permanent oump. I Hydrooeoloqy / i The Fairplain well field is located in the valley of River Gut, the larqest intermittent stream on St. Croix. Eiqht of the nine Fairolain wells are situated downstream from the confluence of Bethlehem Gut and Riv- er Gut (see Fiqures 5 and 6). The valley is underlain by alluvium derived from the Cretaceous rocks that form the Northside Range of St. Croix (see Figure 2). Based on loqs of five wells drilled between 1938 and 1941 in the Fair- plain area (Cederstrpm, 1950) and well loqs from the Golden Grove area (Buros, 1976), a hvdroqeologic cross-section of the Fairplain area has been constructed (Figure 7). Three geologic formations underlie the valley of River Gut in this area. The uppermost deposit consists of alluvial clay, sand, and gravel and ranges from 73 to 83 feet in thickness in the center of the valley at Fairplain. The alluvium is underlain by limestones, chalks, and marls of the Kingshill Limestone. Most wells in the Fairplain area apparently terminate in the alluvium or the upper 20 feet of the Kingshill Limestone. One well (Well 45a), discussed in the previous sec- tion, was drilled to a depth of 225 feet (Cederstrom, 1950). In this well, the Kingshill Limestone was 125 feet thick and underlain by the Jealousy 1005S5 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. _.2 Formation, composed of gray and blue clay. In the Bethlehem area north of Fairplain, a test hole found the Jealousy Formation^ to be over 1,300 feet thick (Cederstrom, 1950). The wells in the Fairplain well field, and the Golden Grove area to the northwest, aoparently derive all of their water from the sand and grav- el layers oresent in the alluvium. Cederstrom (1950) stated that "no wa- ter-bearinq strata were encountered in the limy rocks" that occur below the alluvium in the drillinq of deep Well 45a. The existence of permeable zones in the Kinqshill Limestone should not be ruled out, however, as water wells have been successfully completed in this unit in the Neqro Bay area to the west and Barren Spot area to the east of Fairplain. ^ ^ From the available well loqs, the alluvium appears to be oredominahtly • clay, with sand and qravel lavers that generally ranqe in thickness from 1 to 8 feet. The sand and qravel layers exhibit a variable deqree of sort- ing, and many contain high percentaqes of clay. The deqrees of intercon- •nection of the sand and qravel layers is uncertain (see Fiqure 7). Buros has tentatively suggested that at least two permeable layers extend from the Golden Grove well field along the stream bed to the Fairplain well field (Buros, 1976, Figure 20, p. 47). Unfortunately, the available geo- logic information is insufficient to verify this interconnection, or to de- termine the exact dimensions of these permeable zones. The oresence of oermeable strata in the uoper part of the alluvial section at Fairplain (Figure 7) suggests that the water-bearing strata may be unconfined or semiconfined. Buros stated that "Groundwater studies have 1 0 0 5 6 6 Geraghty & Miller, Inc. -23- demonstrated that the potentiometric head throughout the valley reflects the confined condition of the water within the aguifer and does not repre- y sent a free water table. In most of the study area and the island in gen- eral, an uncnnfined water table does not exist" (Buros, 1976, p. 48). Ce- derstrom (1950) felt that the upper layers of sand at Fairolain were uncon- fined, whereas the water in the deeper sands and gravels were under con- fined conditions. To accurately determine whether the alluvial sands and gravels at Fairplain behave as a water-table, semiconfined, or confined aguifer, carefully located monitoring wells screened in the various dis- creet water-bearing zones would have to be installed and monitored regular- ly. The size and configuration of the cones of influence of the Fairplain wells are parameters that would indicate the degree of confinement of the saturated alluvium. The results of the pumoing test carried out in March. I 1982 indicate that the alluvial aquifer is under semiconfined conditions. I The analysis of this pumping-test data is discussed in detail in a subse- quent section. 'A Pumoinq Test A controlled pumoing test in the Fairplain well field was organized and carried out in March 1982 by Geraghty 4 Miller, Inc., with the contin- uous support of XCA and DPW personnel. The pumping test began on March 9 at 5:(X) PM and continued, in five stages, until 4:{X) PM on March 10. Three wells were Dumped during the test: the other six wells were used as obser- vation points. A considerable amount of preparatory work was necessary prior to the 100567 Geraghty & Miller. Inc.
