(see figure 1). Said improvements include the removal of two underground gasoline storage tanks and its replacement with new ones. Existing waste oil stored at this service station will be removed in accordance to the procedures established in the Solid and Hazardous Waste Management Law. Rules and Regulations enforced by the DPNR. However, in order to comply with the requirements established in an order issued by the Department of Planning and National Resources dated August 5, 1987, this action plan is being submitted. In complying with this order, a great effort has been given to provide as much details as possible, considering the limited time available. Not withstanding this fact, it should be kept in mind that the primary goal of this action plan is to determine the nature and extent of hydrocarbons at the service station facility and to develop remedial alternatives, if the data collected indicate that remediation is warranted. If the presence of hydrocarbons is detected, adequate clean up procedures comensurate with the affected area will be implemented. Any residues or debris will be handled according to the results obtained during the sampling procedures. That is, if wastes prove to exhibit the characteristics of EP toxicity, ignitability, corrosivity or reactivity, as defined in 40CFR Part 261 "LJT A T L -A. N I Mt Zioix_ m(»itDm«. »«e»TicTv«*». AMD F I G U R E : i LOCATION -£.- a LEBRON ASSOCIATES Subpart c, they will be disposed as hazardous waste in accordance to the requirements set forth in 40 CFR Part 260 - 266, 270 and 271. 2.0 SAMPLING PLAN Prior to initiating tank removal, a soil gas survey will be conducted to delineate the extent of subsurface contamination with gasoline, if any. A work plan for the soil gas survey is being prepared separately and will be submitted under separate cover. Once the existing tanks are removed, soil samples will be collected from each excavation, in order to assess poten- tial hydrocarbon loss. In addition to sample collection, the nature of the excavated subsurface materials will be described, through visual inspection of the excavation walls by a geologist in the employ of Lebrdn Associates (LA). ~~~~~ If the results of the soil gas survey, tank excavation, or post-excavation sampling indicate that hydrocarbons have leaked into the subsurface environment, the need for monitoring wells will be addressed. Should it be determined that monitoring wells are required, locations will be selected based on available data. The subsoil investigation to be performed should define the following information: • The stratigraphic sequence of the geologic material to the excavated depth. The visual material. classification of the excavated -3- • The vertical and lateral extent of hydrocarbons, if any. ' The type of hydrocarbons and their concentration to the explored depth. • Free product, if encountered. 2.1 Sampling Procedures The sampling procedure in this investigation will be conducted within the non-saturated zone (above the water table) and saturated if necessary. For this service station, the dealer will be informed in advance of the tank excavation and will be consulted concerning his knowledge of the operational history of the facility and the location of underground utilities. Representatives of USEPA and DPNR will have access to the site when work is being conducted at this site; access at other time will be coordinated on a case-by-case basis with Texaco Caribbean Inc. personnel. Prior to any excavation, underground utilities will be marked with the assistance of utility companies, utility maps and field investigations. Soil sampling will be conducted in the tank excavations once the tanks have been removed. The procedures to be implemented during the tank removal are described in Section 4.0. For each tank excavation, a minimum of five samples will be collected. -4- a LEBfiON ASSOCIATES 2.1.1 Post Excavation Soil Sampling Soil samples will be collected in each tank excavation from the bottom of the excavation if the water table is not encountered, or just above the top of the water table, if it is present in the excavation. The soil samples will be collected from a point approximately midway along each wall, and from below the center of the tank. The soil samples will be collected with hand-held equipment, such as a trowel or bucket type hand auger. No field personnel will climb into an excavation deeper than five (5) feet; either the sampling personnel will be lowered to the desired sampling depth in the bucket of the backhoe used to remove the tank, the sampling personnel will collect the samples from ground surface with a hand auger with extensions of different lengths to reach the desired depth, or representative material will be collected from the bottom of the excavation by the backhoe and transferred to sample containers by the attending geologist. -5- a The soil samples will be examined and described by the on-site geologist. The description will be recorded on the Sample/ Core Log form for future reference. Samples will be screened in the field with a potable organic vapor analyzer (OVA or equivalent) equipped with a photoionization detector. The meter will be calibrated to a standard gas. The reading will be recorded on the Sample/Core Log. The geologist will wear disposable plastic gloves when handling and packaging the soil in the sample container. The auger sample will be trimmed with a clean knife and spatula. The outside of each core will be trimmed off, and the samples will be cut to the size of the sample container. At least two 40 ml teflon-sealed vials will be filled with as much sample as possible for each sample to be analyzed. Decontaminated tools, including spatulas and narrow spoons, will be used to pack the sample in the vials in order to minimize the amount of head space in the vial. The threaded portion of the vials will be wiped clean of sample debris to ensure that proper sealing of the vials takes place. -6- The samples for volatile organic analysis will be handled and packaged as efficiently and expeditiously as possible, in order to minimize loss of volatile constituents. The samples will be packed into the container with a minimum of head space. Sample jars for the analysis of other parameters will be filled accordingly. Sufficient material will be collected to insure good laboratory performance and to offer USEPA/DPNR split samples, if required. USEPA and/or DPNR will be consulted for procedures for splitting samples. 2.1.2 Monitoring Well Installation Monitoring wells will be installed, if warranted by the results of the soil gas survey, the post-excavation sampling, or visual and/or instrument observations during excavation. The number of monitoring wells and their locations will be determined based on evaluation of the available data. Monitoring wells will be installed in accordance with the protocol presented in Appendix A. Ground-water samples will be collected from monitoring wells, if installed, after -7- the wells have been developed. Ground-water samples will be analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by USEPA Method 602, and petroleum hydrocarbons. Ground-water samples will be collected in accordance with the protocol presented in Appendix B. 2.1.3 Equipment Decontamination The backhoe bucket will be cleaned between excavations, and between samples if the backhoe is used to collect representative sample material. The trowels and the hand augers will be cleaned between each use as follows: laboratory grade detergent scrub and rinse, potable water rinse, and a final rinse with de-ionized water. Other tools used in sample preparation are to be similarly cleaned. A controlled decontamination area will be installed to prevent potential off-site migration of contaminants. All equipment decontamiantion will take place in this area. The water generated during decontamination will be routed to a central location and disposed in an acceptable manner. -8- a 2.2 Parameters to be Analyzed Parameters to be analyzed and for which samples will be taken could be divided in two categories: a. Parameters to determine the presence of hydrocarbons - because the facility is engaged in the dispensing of gasoline and other petroleum products, the parameters of interest are: benzene, o-xylene, m-xylene, toluene and ethylbenzene. The samples will be analyzed by USEPA Method 602, with search for xylene peaks and total petroleum hydrocarbons. b. Parameters to determine if wastes are hazardous or not - samples will be analyzed for EP toxicity, ignitability, corrosivity, and reactivity. The contract laboratory will be Environmetnal Testing and Certification (ETC) of Edison, New Jersey, or Radian Corp., Austin, Texas and their certification LEBRON * SSOCIATES No. is 68-01-6790 (WA 83-A093) and 68-01-6880 (WA 83- A196) respectively. The complete Quality Assurance/- Quality Control documentation for these two labora- tories are on file with USEPA. Other EPA approved laboratories may be used prior consultation with EPA/DPNR representatives at the site. 2.3 Preservation of Data A great deal of time and effort are required to assure that the results of the samples' analyses provide reliable information of a particular set of conditions. Although the procedures which are discussed below are discussed with details in Test Methods of Evaluating Solid Wastes, published by the Environmental Protection Agency, it will be useful to -9- O88S discuss in general terms its content as to ~ their relevance in this sampling program. It is important to recall that these procedures are routinely used to control the sample flow. 2.3.1 Labeling of Samples Every sample taken during the sampling procedures will be labeled to prevent the false identification of samples (see figure 2). For this purpose gummed paper labels offer the best choice. For each one of the samples the following information will be carefully noted: ASSOCIATES * Sample number * Data and time of collection * Place of collection * Name of sampler It is advised to put the labels on sample containers prior to sampling. Then, at the time of sample collection, the labels should be filled out. 2.3.2 Sample Seals By sealing sample containers, any un- authorized tampering of the samples can be noticed. It is suggested to use gummed paper for this purpose. This seal should be filled out with the sample number, collector's name, and date and time of sampling. It is impor- tant to observe that this seal must be placed -10- TUT GO 3 Collector __________________________ Sample No. Place of Collection Date Sampled ________________._____________ Time Sampled Field Information Figure 2: .Example of Sample Label - 11 - i u r on containers before the sample leaves the custody of the collector (see figure 3). 2.3.3 Field Log Book A field log book will serve as a diary on which all the relevant information per- taining to the sampling and field survey are properly recorded. For this reason, it should be bounded with numbered pages of 8-1/2 by 11 inches. Information to be entered into the log book shall include but not limited to the following: • Purpose of sampling LEBRON • Location and address of field contact ASSOCIATES • Name and address of the owner of the x_ facility to be sampled. • Type of activity performed at the facility. • Parameters for which samples will be analyzed. • Number and volume of samples taken • Description of sampling point and sampling methodology. • Date and time of collection • Collector's sample identification number(s). • Sample distribution and method of transportation (including name of laboratory, Federal Express, etc.). • References such as maps or photographs of the sampling site. -12- NAME AND ADDRESS OF ORGANIZATION COLLECTING SAMPLES Person Collecting Sample ______ _____________Sample No, (signature) Date Collected _____________________ Time Collected __ Place Collected Figure 3: Example of Official Sample Seal -13- a • Any field measurements made (including flammability, explosivity, etc.)* * Signatures of personnel responsible for observations. The maximum extent of information that must be entered varies according to certain conditions such as the actual sampling condi- tions. However, as a general rule of thumb there should be enough information so that someone can reconstruct the sampling proce- dures without the necessity to rely on the collector's memory. As an important and final note on this subject, the log book must ' be kePfc in a safe place. In addition to the field logbook, daily logs will be filled out documenting the systematic conduct of each investigation, personnel involved, and their responsibili- ties. Separate Sample/Core Logs will be utilized to document the nature of geologic materials penetrated and excavated. A daily check list will be followed during each day of work. All field records will be kept at site in a water-proof place and ultimately be transferred to the master filing system in the office. A duplicate of the field note book will be kept on-site as a working copy. -14- a 2.3.4 Chain of Custody Record An important step in the preservation of data is constituted by the chain-of-custody record. This document serves to trace the movement of the sample beginning with the time of collection. A sample of this type of record is observed in figure 4. The recorded information must include at least the following: • Sample number • Signature of collector • Date and time of collection • Place and address of collection • Sample description • Signature of persons involved in the chain of possession. • Inclusive dates of possession 2.3.5 Sample Analysis Request Sheet The sample analysis request sheet is aimed to accompany the sample on its delivery to the laboratory. There is a field portion on this form which must be completed by the person collecting the sample and includes most of the information which has to be noted in the log book. The other part of the form is intended to be completed by the laboratory personnel. This form must include at least: -15- TUT CHAIN OF CUSlf < RECORD r ROJ NO. PROJECT NAME SAMPLERS: »TA.

Sample preservation procedures for ground-water samples are described in Appendix B; these procedures will also be followed for soil samples. 2.4 Quality Assurance/Control Program Detailed protocols and quality assurance plans for the various sampling plan activities are contained in the following sections and appendices. • Section 2.1.1: Post Excavation Soil Sampling • Appendix A : Monitoring Well Specifications • Appendix B : Ground-Water Sampling Protocol • Appendix C : Document and Data Management • Appendix D : Material Safety Data Sheet for Selected Chemicals As the Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) documentation of ETC and Radian^ are on file with USEPA, no additional laboratory QA/QC documentation has been provided. The procedures described in Appendix C: Document and Data Management have been developed to insure the accuracy and integrity of the data collected during the -17- investigation. In more specific terms, the quality control program defines the frequency and methods of checks, audits, and reviews which are necessary to identify problems. This measure will allow the development of an appropriate corrective action which in turn permit to verify product's quality. For the purposes of complying with these requirements the Quality Assurance/Control Program, all the laboratories which are being considered to perform the analyses have a written QC/QA Program which will be provided. Blank samples will also be used to verify the compliance with QC/QA procedures. ASSOCIATES 3'° SITE CONTINGENCY AND HEALTH AND SAFETY PLAN 3.1 Introduction — This Health and Safety Plan (HASP) has been devel- oped to address health and safety issues that may arise during the soil gas survey, soil sampling, drilling/ excavation, tank removal, and monitoring well installa- tion (if required) at the Texaco Tutu Service Station site in St. Thomas, USVI. This HASP was developed with the involvement of occupational and industrial health and safety personnel, physicians, chemists, and other appropriate personnel using current Federal Regulations and published guidelines, texts, and references. The protection of workers and environmental safety and health are major concerns during this project and -18- a cannot be compromised. The objective of this, health and safety plan is to assure that safe working condi- tions exist at the site. The safety organization and procedures have been established based on an analysis of potential hazards and personnel protection measures which have been selected in response to these risks. The elements of this HASP are based upon require- ments described in the EPA Standard Operating Safety Guide, the U.S. Department of Labor, OSHA Standards 29 CFR Part 1910. All reasonable precautions shall be taken by Lebr6n Associates (LA) and its subcontractors to ensure the safety and health of workers and the general public. All work will be performed in accor- dance with applicable federal, state, territory, and local regulations and recommendations. 3.2 Site Location The investigation will be conducted at the Texaco Tutu Service Station, located in St. Thomas, USVI. 3.3 Management All site operations will be under the direction of the site Project Coordinator. This individual is empowered to make the routine decisions regarding working conditions and safety equipment selection. At the beginning of each day, site personnel will be briefed on the expected activities for that day by the site Project Coordinator. -19- IEBRON ASSOCIATES Lebr6n Associates will designate a Safety Manager; this person will be conversant with safety and health issues associated with field investigative activities. The project personnel report directly to the Safety Manager on safety issues. The Safety Manager is responsible for the preparation and implementation of the HASP. Disputes over the safety issues will be resolved by the safety manager. 3.4. Hazard Evaluation Constant attention shall be given to physical hazards encountered during everyday work activities, particularly those associated with heavy equipment; special consideration is given to chemical hazards. The field activities previously described consist generally of drilling/excavation, tank removal, and sampling. An evaluation of the potential hazards has been completed utilizing site history. The following exposure pathways have been identified: Ingestion of contaminated sediments and surface soils (accidental/poor hygiene) Inhalation and ingestion of contaminated particles and vapors Dermal contact with contaminated sediments and surface soils * Dermal contact with contaminated equipment and structures. The preliminary hazard assessment has been developed from existing information at the Texaco -20- r; !T 003 O396 a Caribbean, Inc. service station in the Tutu area*' The affected area is under a concrete pad and for that reason no direct exposure to any contaminated soil will take place at present. There are no detectable signs of leakage such as odor, product loss, etc. Toxicolog- ical and hazard data for gasoline have been attached. Data obtained during the project will be used to update this evaluation. These data will be explained and made available to site personnel at the training session. Because the facility was engaged in the dispensing of gasoline and other petroleum products, toxicological and hazard data for the following compounds have also been attached in Appendix D: benzene, o-xylene, m-xylene, toluene, and ehyl-benzene. 3.5 Personnel Protective Equipment Based on the hazard evaluation, the use of respiratory protective equipment is expected to be limited. Level D protection has been selected for site activities. Protection will be upgraded to Level C if monitoring indicates a higher degree of hazard. A sus- tained reading of 300 ppm will trigger an upgrade in protection. This value is the Threshold Limit Value- Time Weighted Average (TLV-TWA) for gasoline. This value represents an acceptable workplace exposure, and allows a margin of error in assuming that all 300 ppm reading is gasoline. Other data obtained during the -21- 7UT O03 OB97 a project will be used to update the use of respiratory protective equipment. If other contaminants are encountered on-site, all personnel will be made fully aware of their hazards and the appropriate procedures will be utilized to prevent exposure. The levels of protection are defined as follows Level D: Tyvek Coveralls Hard hat Gloves - nitrile or equivalent Safety glasses Level C: Coveralls - Tyvek with hoods Full face respirators with appropriate cartridges Hard Hat ™ATES Rubber boots Inner gloves - surgical type Outer gloves - nitrile or equivalent No changes to the specified level of protection shall be made without the approval of the safety manager. If the conditions warrant more stringent personal protection, the following be employed, but not limited to: Duct taping of boots and gloves to coveralls to eliminate possible leakage at the wrist and ankle - Inner gloves - Eye protection - Polyethylene-coated coverall or rain gear -22- a 3.6 Air Monitoring Air monitoring equipment to be used for measure- ments will include, but not be limited to: photoioniza- tion detector, oxygen meter, and explosimeter. The air around the excavations will be surveyed, as well as the air at shoulder height (breathing zone) around the operating equipment. This survey will take place at different points of the operation. The air monitoring equipment will be calibrated according to manufacturer instructions. 3.7 Site Control The working area will be divided into three zones: restricted zone (exclusive zone), decontamination zone (contaminant reduction zone), and a clean zone (support zone). The restricted zone is a limited access area, which will be established at each work location. Only authorized personnel, who have satisfied the training and health monitoring requirements of this HASP, will be allowed in the restricted zone. Personnel will exit the restricted zone by passing through the decontamina- tion zone. Equipment and clothing will be removed beginning with boots, then coveralls, gloves, hard hat and respirators. Respirators, if used, will be sanitized daily and stored in plastic bags. Equipment which is to be reused, such as rubber boots, will be decontaminated properly and stored in plastic bags. -23- a Disposable equipment will be placed in plastic bags or drums and disposed of properly. Personnel will wash face and hands before leaving the decontamination area. The clean zone will serve as a meeting and storage area. The following practices and precautions will be adhered to at all times in the working areas. • No smoking, drinking, eating, or chewing gum/ tobacco in the exclusive or decontamiantion zone The use of specified personnel protection at all times in the exclusive zone. No combustible materials or uncontrolled sources of ignition in the exclusive zone. All personnel should take a hygienic shower at the ASSOCIATES LEBRON encj of the day. In addition, the following materials/equipment will be present at the site during the conduct of this investigation: emergency eye washes will be provided in the exclusive and decontamination zones, and fire extinguishers (for small local fires) and emergency first-aid kits will be kept at the working areas. Equipment will be decontaminated by washing with a detergent solution and rising with de-ionized water. 3.8 Training Prior to initiating site work, all site personnel (Lebr6n Associates and subcontractors) will be required to attend a training session given by the Safety Manager. This session will include, but is not limited to, the following topics: -24- Site history Specific hazards (including toxicological data) Hazard recognition Standard operation procedures Decontamination (personnel and equipment) Emergency procedures Respirator fit test and use 3.9 Emergency Procedures The following standard emergency procedures will be used by on-site personnel. The safety manager shall be notified of any on-site emergencies and be respon- sible for ensuring that the appropriate procedures are followed. 3.9.1 Personal Injury in the Exclusion Zone In the event of an injury in the exclusion zone, all site personnel shall assemble at the decontamination line. The Project Coordinator should evaluate the nature of the injury and the affected person should be decontaminated to the extent possible prior to movement to the support zone. Appropriate first aid should be initiated, and contact should be made for an ambulance and with the designated medical facility (if required). No persons shall reenter the exclusion zone until the cause of the injury or symptoms is determined. 3.9.2 Personal Injury in the Support Zone Upon notification of an injury in the support zone, the Project Manager and Safety Manager will -25- assess the nature of the injury. If the cause of the injury or loss of the injured person does not affect the performance of site personnel, opera- tions may continue; the appropriate first aid and necessary follow-up as stated above should be initiated. 3.9.3 Fire/Explosion Upon notification of a fire or explosion on the site, all personnel will assemble at the decontamination line. The fire department shall be alerted and all personnel moved to a safe distance from the involved area. 3.9.4 Personal Protective Equipment Failure If any site worker experiences a failure or alteration of protective equipment that affects the protection factor, that person and his/her buddy shall immediately leave the exclusion zone. Reentry shall not be permitted until the equipment has been repaired or replaced. 3.10 EMERGENCY ROUTE AND PHONE NUMBERS A map showing the most direct route from the work site to the nearest hospital is attached. Emergency phone numbers will be posted at conspicuous places in the support zone. These phone numbers along with the directions to the nearest medical facility will be available at the site. -26- TIJT OUo Phone Numbers Site Representative Fire Department Ambulance Hospital Police Department USEPA Caribbean Field Office Department of Planning and Natural Resources USVI 809-723-3332 809-921 809-922 809-776-8311 809-915 809-725-7825/7818/7891/7864 809-774-3320 LEBRON ASSOCIATES Location of hospital and route map is on Figure 5. 3.11 SPECIAL CONDITIONS This plan must be provided to all field personnel who will participate in the drilling investigation at the Texaco Caribbean, Inc.

Slot sizes for most wells will range from 0.010 to 0.020 inch. 3.0 EXECUTION 3.1 DRILLING METHOD - MONITORING WELLS A. THE CONVENTIONAL hollow-stem-auger method of drilling shall be employed. However, when the Consultant determines that the hollow-stem-auger method is ineffective due to local geologic conditions, the mud rotary method may be required. Any drilling fluid utilized must be approved by the Consultant and the EPA/DPNR prior to its use. The diameter of the finished hole must be a minimum of 8 inches. 3.2 DRILLING A. THE MONITORING WELLS will be installed in unconsolidated deposits to depths 15 ft below water table. Twenty feet of screen will be installed in these wells. 3.3 FORMATION SAMPLES SOIL SAMPLES will be taken during the drilling of each monitoring well continuously, or at intervals specified by the Consultant. The driller will be required to use a standard 2-foot long split-spoon sampling device to obtain soil samples. B. ACTUAL SAMPLING DEPTHS shall be determined from information derived during drilling operations and as directed by the Consultant. 003 O91.4 A-5- 3.4 SCREEN AND CASING A. THE CASINGS AND SCREENS shall be installed to depths designated by the Consultant. Alternate depths suggested because casing cannot be set to depth, because of equipment problems, hole straightness problems, or for any other reason will not be given consideration. The Driller must insure that the hole stays open to the final depth during the installation of casing, screen, gravel, and grout. B. IT IS ESTIMATED that 20 feet of screen will be installed in each of the monitoring wells. 3.5 GRAVEL PACK AND CEMENTING, SCREEN AND CASING A. AFTER SETTING THE SCREEN AND CASING to the bottom of the hole, gravel will be placed in the annulus between the auger flyte and the casing/screen to 2 to 3 feet above the top of the screen in the intermediate and deep wells. A three-foot thick layer of bentonite pellets will be placed on top of the gravel pack. The gravel will be emplaced by carefully pouring in by hand and washed down with water or by means of a one-inch diameter tremie pipe, at the discretion of the Consultant. B. CEMENT GROUT will be emplaced in the hole from the top of the bentonite pellets to land surface. The cement will be mixed to a density approved by the Consultant and emplaced by means of a tremie pipe. C. THE WELL shall be completed with a locking well head assembly set in a concrete pad. A protective triangular array made of 2-inch diameter G.I. pipe will be installed around selected well heads for additional protection. TUT O03 A-6- 3.6 DEVELOPING THE WELL A. AFTER THE GROUT has set for a m-iniTmim of 12 hours in the well annulus, the well shall be developed to the satisfaction of the Consultant. The well will be developed using m'«n" psg*qj »^ and/or a suitable pump. The PiHT^**1** will also be required to surge the well with a surge-block plunger of appropriate diameter. 3.7 ABANDONMENT OF WELLS A. IN THE EVENT that the Driller shall fail to drill a well or place the casings to the depths specified or to such lesser depths as ordered by the Consultant or should abandon the well because of loss of tools or for any other cause, he shall, if requested and as directed by the Consultant, remove salvageable casings and equipment and fill the abandoned hole in accordanne with State and local regulations. The Driller shall then move over and drill a new hole at a location approved by the Consultant. This work shall be done at the Driller's expense employing the * use of salvaged materials, if usable, at the discretion of the Consultant. 4.0 DEOONTAMDRTION OF A. AFTER THE DRILLING, SAMPLING, AND INSTALtATTCN of each well, and prior to the drilling of the first well, the Driller shall decontaminate all augers, rods, split-spoon samplers, tremie pipes and any other tools to be used in the drilling and well installation operations.

The samples will be analyzed for petroleum hydrocarbons and volatile organic ccopounds by USEPA Method 602. dis protocol has been designed to insure that uniform and proper procedures are adhered to in the collection of an samples, in order to provide for the quality and integrity of each sample at each location. 1.0 Well 1.1 Identify the well and record Its number and other pertinent data on the Water Sampling log. Prior to sampling, the sampling sites (monitoring wells) will be grouped into three • categories: suspected background, suspected slight contamination, and suspected high contamination. Background sites win be sampled first, and the most highly contaminated locations last. 1.2 Place clean plastic sheeting on the ground surface adjacent to the well. Equipment and supplies to be used for sampling are to be stored on the plastic. 1.3 Remove the well cap or plug and wipe the inside of the casing with a clean cloth. Place the cap on plastic sheeting. 1.4 Clean the first 5 feet of the steel measuring tape with laboratory detergent and distilled water. Measure the depth to water from the top of the well casing and record on the Water Sampling Log. A sample log form J - * ' B-2- 1.5 Compute and record the volume of vater in the veil according to the following: 1) For a 4-inch diameter veil: height of vater column x 0.65 gallons/foot 2) For a 2-inch diameter veil: height of vater column x 0.16 gallons/foot 1.6 Remove five timpis the volume of standing vater in the veil using a centrifugal pump or vith a clean bailer. 1.6.1 3he intake opening of the pump hose should be positioned and maintained just below the vater surface in the veil casing to ensure that the veil is properly flushed. If there is a slight decrease in the well's vater level as a result of pumping, the intake line should be lowered as needed. Ihis procedure does not have to be followed for those veils in which there is a rapid and-pronounced decline in the vater level, even to the point where the veil is pumped dry. These veils * will be pmyipri by placing the hose near the bottom of the well. 1.6.2 If the veil has been pumped or developed recently, the vater level may not yet have recovered or returned to static conditions. 1ft1s does not require a change in the evacuation procedures outlined above. Although the actual volume of vater in the casing under such conditions is less than normally found, the removal of five times this volume is sufficient to provide samples for analysis that are representative of the vater in the surrounding formation. After 5 volumes have been evacuated, the intake hose will be quickly removed from the veil while the pump is still operating in order to prevent backwash from re-entering the veil. B-3- 1.6.3 If the wen is pumped dry during the procedure and shews essentially oorplete recovery within 15 • minutes, removal of water should continue for four additional pump down and recovery periods. If recovery is less than 75 percent during the 15 minutes after complete evacuation, sampling can begin with the next appearance of water. However, the initial volume which eventually becomes available may not be large enough to complete the sampling in the brief period of time normally required. 1.7 Use pwip will be purged with potable water between sample locations. Any bailer that is reused will be washed with TM Micro solution and distilled water. * 1.8 The intake hose will be disposed of and replaced with clean, new hose for use at the next well location. 2.0 Wpll Samling 2.1 Sample the wells with a teflon bailer that has been TM * thoroughly cleaned with Micro solution, followed by a rinse with distilled water. A nylon cord will be used to secure the bailer; the cord will be digrgirriad after each sampling. Sampling personnel will wear surgical gloves during handling of sampling equipment and containers. The gloves will be disposed after sampling is finished at each well location. 2.2 Fin the bailer; discard the water retrieved in the bailer and refill the bailer. Fill sample containers in succession from the same bailer full of water. For wells which contain floating free product the special procedures described below win be followed: 2.2.1 Use a peristaltic pump to sample the water occur- ring below the product. Upon lowering the intake of B-4- the pump, hook up the pump in reverse. Start the pump while the intake is lowered. When the intake hose is - located at a sufficient depth below the product, reverse the pump setting to intake. Fill sample containers fron the outflow as usual. 2.2.2 To sample the floating free product, fill the bailer as described in 2.2 above. Carefully decant the water in the bailer using the ball check-valve on the bailer bottom. Free product remaining in the bailer will be transferred to a sample container using the bail check-valve on the bailer bottom. Fill sample containers as usual. 3.0 Samle fllincf and Bott 3.1 The type of sample container and the manner of sanple preservation are described in Table B-l. In addition, field analysis (recorded on the water sampling log) will consist of a qualitative sample description and measurement of pH, temperature, and specific conductance. Field instruments for the measurement of pH and specific conductance will be calibrated with standard solutions prior to sampling each day. 3.1.1 At critical locations, a replicate sample will be col- lected. The replicate sample will be used for quality-control purposes. A trip blank will accompany each set of volatile organic vials from and to the lab. Gne (1) field blank will be prepared when the samples are collected; the field blank will serve as an additional check that sampling tools are not a source of cross contamination. i in B-5- 3.2 For samples exhibiting obvious signs of contamination - or ttluiitj odors, the sample containers will be stored in TM separate zip-loc plastic storage bags. This is especially crucial for volatile vials, in order to avoid cross contamination of samples by diffusion of volatile organics (particularly fluorocazbons and methylene chloride) through the septum seal during shipment and storage. 3.3 Ramping will be stored in a secure area until they are to a T'wifT f or overnight delivery to the laboratory. Samples will be shipped from the site on a daily basis using proper chain-of-custody.

This progi'flP1 includes a document numbering system, inventory procedure and a filing system under the supervision of the Project Officer. Pr*"^ Trent's included in the program include original field notes and logbooks, field data records, correspondence, sample numbering and descriptions, laboratory data, and chain-of -custody records. All documents must be dated. Logbook entries made by individuals other than to whom the logbook was assigned must be signed by the person making the entry. All field notes and logbooks must be turned over to the project manager at the end of a field assignment. Chain— of -Custody All samples shipped to a laboratory will be accompanied by a Chain-of-Custody Record which identifies the contents. The chain-of-custody form will be completed in the field; the original form will accompany the shipment and a copy will be retained by the field personnel for distribution to the project manager. A sample chain-of -custody form is attached. If sent by mail, the package will be registered with return receipt requested. If sent by common carrier, an airbill or Bill of Lading will be used. Receipts from post officers and bills of lading will be retained as part of the project documentation. C-2- Samples will be properly packaged for shipment and dispatched-to the appropriate laboratory for analysis with a separate record prepared for-the laboratory. Shipping containers will be sealed. The "Courier to the Airport" space on the Chain-of-Custody record shall be dated and signed. Field Data Records Where ordered by the project manager or officer, serialized field data records in the form of individual sheets or bound logbooks will be maintained for each sampling station or location. All in-situ measurements and field observations will be recorded along with all pertinent information necessary to explain and reconstruct sampling operations. Each page of the field data record will be dated and initialed by all individual making entries on that page or engaged in field activities related to the entry. All working documents used in evaluating data should contain information sufficient to recall and describe each step of the analysis performed should the analyst be required to testify in subsequent enforcement proceedIngs. Sufficient information must be provided to enable others to reconstruct the analysis if the analyst is not available to do so. If the analyst believes it necessary to deviation shall be justified and documented. Document Correction and Changes No serialized documents are to be destroyed even if they are illegible or contain inaccuracies. When an error is made in a project logbook, the individual may make corrections by crossing out the error and entering the correct information. Changes made in this manner must be dated and initialed. If an error is discovered on a chain-of-custody record or field document, the person who made the error should correct it whenever possible. Corrections or insertions are made by writing "corrected", the date, and the person's initials beside the correction. C-3- Oonsistencv of Before -releasing any field data, laboratory data, or data evaluation, the project staff shall assemble and cross-check information on corresponding sample tags, custody records, laboratory reports, analyst logbooks, and field logbooks to ensure that data are consistent throughout the project record. Project Files After a pfryMr8!"!*1!* investigation is completed, generated as part of the project are to be assembled in a central file.

As judged primarily in laboratory animals, essentially the same symptoms follow the acute administration of benzene, toluene and the various xylenes. Rat oral LD50 for toluene is 7.7 ml./kg. (specific gravity 0.87). .Toluene in man is metabolized by oxidation to benzoic acid. It is further metabolized and largely excreted in the urine as hippuric acid which- can be used as an index of toluene exposure. Hepatomegaly, lymphocytosis and minor deviations in red cell volume and corpuscular hemoglobin concentration have been associated with exposure. However, no chromosome aberrations have """" been reported. Chronic toluene abuse (by "sniffers") has been associated with metabolic acidosis and life-threatening hypokalemic muscle paralysis. The hypokalemia is secondary to renal tubular acidosis. See Xylene for signs, symptoms and treatment of acute poisoning.

Medero-Gallart Education: Degree(s)/Year/Specialization BSCE/1979/Civil/University of Puerto Rico M.S./1981/Sanitary/Georgia Tech.. Before joining LA, he was Director of the Division of Land Pollution Control for the Environmental Quality Board of Puerto Rico. While at Lebron Associates he has been Project Engineer in numerous projects of varying types and degrees of complexity. Following is a representative sample of his areas of expertise relevant to the proposed project. o Has been very actively involved in the consulting services rendered by the firm for the operation of the Manati Municipal Landfill. o Project engineer for the studies and design of a Regional Municipal Landfill at Barceloneta. o Study and design for the connection into process system of the effluent of the STP of Johnosn & Johnson, Inc., a pharmaceutical industry in Las Piedras, Puerto Rico. o Environmental Consulting Services, technical services and design of a Hazardous Waste Facility; Penuelas, P.R. - As Project Engineer, Mr. Medero has been influential in developing the engineering approach to the planned upgrading of the PROTECO hazardous waste management facility in Penuelas, Puerto Rico. Design and permitting programs are underway for upgrad- ing of the facility, whereby the facility will serve as the major hazardous waste management facility in Puerto Rico. It is the only such commercial facility accepting outside-genera- ted waste streams on the island (in other words, the only other hazardous waste management facilities in existence are indus- trial facilities managing their own wastes). The proposed upgrading plan is being designed to manage the largest reasonable range of typical hazardous wastes, except "high hazard" wastes. "High hazard" wastes such as dioxin and polychlorinated bi- phenyls (PCB's) will not be managed at the facility. Technical hazardous waste management processes planned for the facility include the follow- ing: o Waste Receipt Processing and Control - Waste receipt processing and control will take place in a new laboratory and office facility to be constructed at the entrance to the facility. 09 /' 3 Jesus M, Medero-Gallart - 2 - The proposed upgrading plan is being designed to manage the largest reasonable range of typical hazardous wastes, except "high hazard" wastes.
