1.0 INTRODUCTION

The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region III tasked Tetra Tech EM Inc. (Tetra

Tech) under the Eastern Area Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START)

contract to conduct sampling activities at the Delaware Sand and Gravel site (DS&G). These

activities were conducted as part of operations and maintenance of the site under Technical

Directive Document (TDD) No. 03-0007-065. This trip report summarizes the activities

performed by Tetra Tech under this TDD. Appendices A through D comprise the field logbook

notes, a photographic log, the chain-of-custody record, and the laboratory analytical report,

respectively.

2.0 BACKGROUND

The site is located at 229 Grantham Lane, New Castle, New Castle County, Delaware, as

illustrated in Figure 1. The DS&G site covers 27 acres and is located approximately 2 miles

from the city of New Castle, Delaware. The former sand and gravel quarry is currently an

inactive industrial waste landfill that is listed on the National Priorities List (NPL). It is located

adjacent to another NPL site: the Army Creek Landfill (EPA 2000a).

The site is a privately owned landfill facility that began operations in 1968. During its years of

operation, the landfill received approximately 550,000 cubic yards of industrial wastes and

construction debris. This included thousands of drums containing organic and inorganic

hazardous substances. The site comprised four major disposal areas: the Grantham South

Disposal Area, the Drum Disposal Area, the Ridge Disposal Area, and the Inert Disposal Area

(Figure 2) (EPA 2000a).

The 3-acre Drum Disposal Area was a major source of organic contamination in the

groundwater. The 0.5-acre Ridge Disposal Area included "hot spots" of contaminated surface

soil associated with chemical spills. The 2-acre Grantham South Disposal and the 11-acre Inert

Disposal areas each contained debris and mixed-chemical wastes buried 20 to 40 feet thick.

When it was open, the site operated 24-hours a day and accepted municipal-type trash,

construction debris, and industrial wastes. These industrial wastes included at least 13,000

drums containing liquids and sludge from chemical production, manufacturing, and petroleum

refining processes (EPA 2000a).

Hazardous substances buried at both DS&G and the Army Creek landfills have migrated into

underlying groundwater. The Potomac Aquifer, which is used as a public water source, lies

beneath the site. Public supply wells are located about 1 mile south of the site. Groundwater

recovery wells, installed as part of the cleanup, are located between the site and the public

supply wells. These recovery wells are designed to capture groundwater borne contaminates

migrating from both the Delaware Sand & Gravel and Army Creek Superfund Sites.

The owner is currently using the surface barrier area as a storage area for heavy equipment. It is

suspected that several of these machines are leaking various petroleum-hydrocarbon-based

fluids. Leakage of hydrocarbon-based fluids from the stored equipment has the potential to

release contaminates to the environment and compromise cap integrity. In addition, the handling

and maneuvering of the equipment is causing physical gouge marks in the surface of the cap,

which may be compromising the integrity of the capped area.

3.0 SITE ACTIVITIES

On November 14 through 15, 2000, Tetra Tech employees!

met EPA representative Phil Rotstein on site to collect 22 soil samples and to document the

occurrence of gouges in the surface of the cap area. Tetra Tech successfully collected 22

samples including two duplicate samples for quality control purposes. Samples were designated

as SS01 through SS22 and were properly labeled and prepared for shipping. Sampling locations

are shown on Figure 3. The samples were shipped to the EPA-assigned laboratory in

Narrangensett, Rhode Island, where they were analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOC)

and oil fingerprinted for total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH). Tetra Tech documented the

location of seven gouge marks in the cap surface.

3.1 SOIL SAMPLING SUMMARY

Samples were collected as specified in the sampling plan. All soil samples were collected from a

depth of 0 to 6 inch below grade using disposable scoops and aluminum pans. The samplers

A R G G G 7 6 6


used clean latex gloves at each sampling location to minimize any potential cross contamination.

The samples were homogenized in a clean disposable aluminum pan at each sampling point.

Samples were collected as described byj

3.2 SAMPLE HANDLING

The laboratory assigned to this sampling event under delivery of analytical services reference

number RJ882 was Ceimic Corporation, located at 10 Dean Knauss Drive, Narrangansett, Rhode

Island. Two clear, wide-mouth (CWM), 8-ounce jars were used to store each sample for

shipment to the laboratory. The jars where placed into a plastic zip-lock bag, then packed into a

cooler that contained ice and vermiculite absorbent packing material. The sample bottles were

properly labeled and recorded on the chain-of-custody forms, which can be found attached in

Appendix C. The samples were shipped via Federal Express to the laboratory. The laboratory

successfully analyzed all of the samples collected.

3.3 GOUGE DOCUMENTATION SUMMARY

In addition to soil sampling, Tetra Tech documented the occurrence and location of seven gouge

marks in the cap area. Appendix C contains photographs taken of each gouge documented and

the locations are illustrated in Figure 4. The locations for the gouge marks were determined

using a global positioning system (GPS).

4.0 SOIL ANALYTICAL RESULTS

Soil analytical results are provided in Table 1. The analytical data were validated by the EPA

Region III, Environmental Services Assistance Team contractor. Soil samples collected during

this sampling event were analyzed for VOCs using EPA Method 8260, "Volatile Organic

Compounds by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry," and for TPH using a modified EPA

Method 8015, "Nonhalogenated Organics Using Gas Chromatography/Flame lonization

Detection" (EPA 2000a).

The analytical results indicate that no significant concentrations of VOCs exist in the surface

soils at the site. The VOC results of the volatile analysis also showed that sample blank

contamination was detected, which is insignificant since no detectable amounts of VOCs were

detected (EPA 2000b).

The TPH analysis did find diesel range organic compounds (C8 through C30) in the mg/kg range

in all of the samples collected. The concentrations ranged from 440 mg/kg to 63,000 mg/kg.

The maximum concentration of 63,000 mg/kg was located at sampling point SSI9, which is

situated north of the cap area (Figure 3). Sample points with concentrations greater than 30,000

mg/kg include SS-2, SS-6, SS-8, SS-9, SS-11, and SS-15 (EPA 2000a).

5.0 DATA EVALUATION

The analytical results indicate that no detectable quantities of VOC's were present. The mg/kg

range concentrations of diesel range organics (C8 through C30) exceed the uniform risk-based

standards established by the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental

Control (DNRC) by one order of magnitude at several locations (DNRC 1999). The high

concentration* are spread over the entire sampled area rather than being specific to one small

area. These results indicate that the storage of heavy equipment and the subsequent spillage of

petroleum hydrocarbon based fluids have the potential to adversely impact environmental quality

within the surface barrier area.

6.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

Tetra Tech recommends that EPA consider further evaluation of the data to determine the next

course of action. Tetra Tech believes that the analytical results and gouge documentation

support the conclusion that the current use of the site is having a negative environmental impact

and is compromising the integrity of the cap. However, the nature and extent of this negative

impact cannot be quantified at this time due to insufficient data. If requested, Tetra Tech will

prepare a new field-sampling plan to further investigate the extent of contamination and cap

integrity.

FROM: Michael Roxbury Vxf- MahboobehMecanic^Senior Data Reviewer Senior Oversight Chemist

TO: Fredrick ForemanESAT Regional Project Officer

OVERVIEW

DAS R3882, consisted of twenty two (22) soil samples submitted to Ceimic Corporation (CETMIQ,Narragansett, RI, for volatile and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) analyses. Sample set included two(2) field duplicate pairs. Volatile analyses were performed by USEPA SW-846 Volatile OrganicCompounds by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS), Method 8260. Samples wereanalyzed for TPH utilizing Nonhalogenated Organics Using Gas Chromatography/Flame lonizationDetection (GC/FID), SW-846 Method 8015 modified The samples were analyzed through Delivery ofAnalytical Services (DAS) program.

SUMMARY

Data were validated according to Innovative Approaches for Validation of Organic Data, Level Ml,which includes the evaluation of action limits, laboratory and field blanks, sample paperwork,retention times, mass spectra, and chromatograms. Level Ml review excludes evaluation of qualitycontrol forms, calibration, and raw data. Although not required by Ml review, the reviewer observedone (1) Major Problem during the assessment of data quality. Data were qualified accordingly, basedon Region 3 guidelines. All samples were successfully analyzed for all target compounds except asnoted in Major Problem section.

MAJ9R FPjQBLEM

• Response Factor (RF) was less than 0.05 for acetone in the continuing calibration performed11/22/00. The "L" qualifier for positive results was superseded by "B". Quantitation limit foracetone in sample R388210 was qualified "R" on Data Summary Forms (DSFs).

NOTES

The maximum concentrations of all target compounds found in the analyses of method blanksare listed below. Samples with concentrations of common laboratory contaminants less than tentimes (<10X) highest blank concentration or with concentrations of other contaminants less thanfive times (<5X) blank concentration have been qualified "B". Concentrations are in ug/Kg.

TPH samples associated with this Case were analyzed at dilutions ranging from ten fold(10X) to five hundred fold (500X) to bring concentrations within calibrated range.Individual samples and dilutions used are tabled below.

Volatile samples were analyzed using sample mass other than 5.0 grams. Dilution factorsappearing on Data Summary Forms (DSFs) reflect actual sample mass used in individualsample analysis.

Surrogate recoveries reported from diluted analyses for TPH were not used to qualifysample results.

Laboratory performed two moisture content determinations for each sample; oneassociated with volatile fraction analysis and one associated with TPH analysis. Moisturedata included on DSFs reflect data reported by laboratory for each sample based onanalysis (volatile or TPH).

Volatile Laboratory Control Samples (LCS) LCSOW and LCSOX reported recoveries fortarget compounds outside lower QC limits. No positive results were associated withthese compounds in affected samples. Quantitation limits were not qualified due to thelevel of review requested.

Compounds detected below Contract Required Quantitation Limits (CRQLs) were qualified "J"unless superseded by "B" on DSFs.

Laboratory case narrative identifies recovery and precision outliers in Matrix Spike/Matrix SpikeDuplicate analyses. Level Ml review excludes evaluation of quality control analysis results. Nodata were qualified based on QC analyses results.

Glossary of Data Qualifiers

GLOSSARY OF DATA QUALIFIER CODES (ORGANIC)

CODES RELATED TO IDENTIFICATION(confidence concerning presence or absence of compounds)

U = Not detected. The associated number indicates approximate sampleconcentration necessary to be detected.

NO CODE = Confirmed identification.

B = Not detected substantially above the level reported in laboratory or fieldblanks.

R = Unusable result. Analyte may or may not be present in the sample.Supporting data necessary to confirm result.

N = Tentative identification. Consider present. Special methods may beneeded to confirm its presence or absence in future sampling efforts.

CODES RELATED TO QUANTITATION(can be used for both positive results and samplequantitation limits):

J = Analyte present. Reported value may not be accurate or precise.

K = Analyte present. Reported value may be biased high. Actual value isexpected to be lower.

L = Analyte present. Reported value may be biased low. Actual value isexpected to be higher.

UJ = Not detected, quantitation limit may be inaccurate or imprecise.

UL = Not detected, quantitation limit is probably higher.

OTHER CODES

NJ = Qualitative identification questionable due to poor resolution.Presumptively present at approximate quantity.

Q = No analytical result.

SDG Narrative

The enclosed data package is in response to EPA, Region ffl, Case No. R3882, SDG No.R38820. Under this SDG there are 4 VGA analyses for 2 soil samples which were received atCeimic Corporation on November 15,2000.

This data package includes the analyses for the following samples from SDG No. R38820,all of which are billable:

(1) EPA ID Ceimic IT Analyse*

R388201 ms/msd 200822-01 ms/msd VOA, TPHR388222 200822-02 VOA, TPH

Sample Receipt

Cooler Temperatures upon receipt was 5°C.

The submitted data covers the analysis of the Volatile* (VOA) and Total PetroleumHydrocarbons (TPH) fractions and their associated blanks and QA/QC. CEIMIC would like tohighlight the following points pertaining to the analyses performed for this case:

(2) Instrumentation and Column Identification

The following instruments were used for the analyses:

GC/MS Analysis

A. VOA

MS15: HP5970B GC/MS using 105 m x 0.53 mm ID, 3 urn film thicknessVOCOL megabore column (Hewlett-Packard).

GC Analysis

B. TPH

AD24J: HP5890II using 30 m x 0.25 mm ID DB-5 capillary column, GC9.

(3) Sample Information

Additional qualifier, "x"

An "x" qualifier is flagged by Formaster software whenever the data is manually edited.

A R G 0 0 8 i 8 0 3

The letters "M" for GC/MS and TF for GC are used on the raw data of the quantitationreport whenever a manual integration is performed. These data manipulations are done onlyto correct for computer integration error

A. VOA Fraction (Method 8260B)

The continuing calibration associated with samples R388201 (200823-01) andR38222 (200823-02) had a %D greater than 20% for Chloroethane.

The continuing calibration associate ' with R388201MS (200823-01MS) andR388201MSD (200823 -01MSD) had %D's greater than 20% for Chloroethaneand Bromomethane.

B. TPH Fraction (Method 801 5)

Surrogates are co-eluted with TPH in all samples (5-372 % recovery)

Matrix spike recoveries are high in R388201 MS/MSD (1064 % and 2941 %,respectively) due to slight inhomogeneity in the sample material The spikeconcentration (38 ppm) is low compared to the concentration of TPH in the sample(19000 ppm).

Deviations from the SOW

None other than specified above.
