1.1 PROBLEM STATEMENT
The Me.taoora Landfill Site Is an 80-acre area, located In Section 10,,T6N,
R10E, Lapeer County, Michigan. The landfill prpper covers approximately 50
acres of a former gravel quarry north of. Dryden Road ID Metamora Township.
Waste disposal activities at the landfill.have ceased, but gravel mining
continues i'nmediately south of the study area. The study site occupies a
topographic high in the area with numerous steep excavation faces and borrow
pits, the surrounding land uses are primarily residential and agricultural.
The property loaediately north of the landfill, and In scattered area* on the-,
west and east, is heavily wooded and aooess is difficult. The Tillage of
Metaoora is located approximately oneself mile west-southwest of the land-
fill. . • '
t
The landfill began operation in 1966 as an unregulated open duap. In 1969, it
was upgraded to meet prevailing standards and was licensed to receive general
refuse. In addition to general refuse,, tbe landfill received industrial and
chemical waa'tas until its closure it) 1980. A lioedsed solid waste transfer'
^station is currently operated at the site..
Previous investigations by tbe Mlohigad Department of Batural Resources (DM8), *
suggest that as many as 35,000 drums, some containing liquid wastes, maybe
present within tbe main landfill and nearby shallow disposal areas. A
Joe
magnetometer study oonduoted by DNR in 1982'identified five discrete areas of
anomalous magnetic readings (Figure 1-1). The source of three of the five
anomalies are-thought to be burled deep within the.waste contained In the
landfill proper .but, because of their inaccessibility, have never been exca-
vated to determine the nature'of the ferrous metala buried within. These4 ' •"
• *>
three areas are estimated to represent the equivalent o'f about 10,000 drum*.
The remaining two areas exhibiting anomalous magnetic readings, are thought to.
contain as many as 25,000 drums burled at relatively shallow depth oiajklde til*ifr • -
'limits of the landfill proper. A limited excavation program in each of theseSI . T ' '. ,
shallow-burial areas conducted in September, 1982 confirmed the*-presenoe of' % " " "i
f * ftburied drums, as well}-as industrial solvents including toluene, ethyl benzene,
• " ** » • '
'and perohloroetbylene. Toluene, benzene, xylene, pyrene, and ooncentrations
of total metals have been found in <groundvater from monitoring wells installed
at the site during'previous invest igatione. ' '* .
Previous studies by other consultant* and"the DNR have shown that geologic
conditions at the site are variable but generally consistent with regional*• .' •' •

hydrogeologic investigation-at ttie landfill in 1979. A total of ten boringa,
were conducted and veils were Installed in four of the boreholes. leek inter-

aquifer, although they assisted a northeast direction consistent with the
regional drainage pattern.
In 1981, Keck installed four additional wells, MW-5 through 8. It appears4
that these well a were installed in the unconfirmed, sand and gravel aquifer,
although the depth of MV-5 is not certain. Boring logs of these installations
show interbedded sand and gravel with silt and clay.
In June 1984, static water levels were taken by the DNR In walls HW-1 through
MU-8. The direction of groundwater flew was found to be radiating northwest,
north and northeast. The flow directions appeared to be influenced by the
site topography with a north-south oriented groundwater divide near the center
of the site.
Tbe Site Investigation (SI) carried out by the E . G . Jordan Co. (Jordan) in
March to August 1985, better defined existing geologic conditions within the
glacial deposits. In general, site geology consists of unoonsolidated glacial
deposits, prismrily sand and gravel, to depths of 200 to 250 feet in soae
locations, overlying a thick layer of olayey material of undetermined continu-
ity. Beneath the clayey deposit lies the Marshall Sandstone, the prlsary
source of groundwater for the area's groundwater supplies. However, the
saturated surficial sand and gravel deposits above the clsy are occasionally
tapped for doaeatio groundwater supplies.
Soc
Within the study area, groundwater la typically found at depths of 100 to 150
feet from the ground surface. Previous studies hmVe shown that the direction
of shallow groundwater flow in the area is predominantly toward the north.
Considerable local variation from this direction has been indicated on the
basis of conflicting information presented in reports by a consultant for the
property owner and Jordan 's recent hydrogeologlc study. Significant gradients
to the northwest and to the northeast may be present in the area of the refuse
before trending acre due northerly at the north property. boundary. To date,
limited analyses of water from local, private water supply wells have shown
that the water quality is still within normal limits for .consumption. Howev-
er, continued monitoring of private water wells in the area will be necessary
to provide a complete and current assessment.
1.2 OBJECTIVES
The objec t ive of the Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) at the
Metaaora Landfi l l ait* is to undertake studies that will determine the nature'»and extent of environmental contamination at the site, determine the public
health and environmental hazard posed by the site, and identify, a cos^^ffec-
tlve, environmentally sound and socially acceptable remedial program for the
site.
Following Is a summary of several of the specific objectives that will be
addressed by the RI/FS:
o Determine the nature and extent of contamination at the project site.
§OC
o Determine if the sit* poses a hazard to public health and/or to the• »
enviroran«nt.
o Define pathways of contaminant migration from the site to assess the«
potential impact of contaminants on potential receptors .such as local
water wells, surface water, biota, etc.
o Identify on-site and off-site features that' could affect contaminant
migration, containment, or cleanup.
m
o Assess the potential for possible direct contact with contaminated soil- /'"
by the public and define steps to reduce that potential.%
o Identify and develop viable remedial action alternatives.
o Evaluate remedial action alternatives.
o Reeon mend an appropriate remedial program for tbe site including:
1) no action (assessment of no action is required by the RCP and forma
the basis for the comparison of the effectiveness of other alterna-
tives),
2) measures to control the contaminant source by In-plaoe containment
or excavation and off-site disposal, and
3) measures to control wastes that have migrated from the site.
o Prepare a conceptual design for the selected alternative.
o Assist the DNP with its community relations efforts for the site.
1.3 SCOPE OF WORK
The Work Plan for the Hetamora Landfill site has been developed on the basis
of information included in the Request for Work Plan (October 7, 1985) and
other reports and information provided by DNP. In addition, the results the
SI performed by Jordan for DNP were utilized. The RI/FS for the site has been
divided into three general phases and 29 tasks which are presented and dis-
cussed in Section 2 .0 .
Several assumptions h*v« been made in preparing this work plan. They are:
o DNP will provide righta-of-entry 'and access to the site for purposes of
conducting the PI/73;
o On the basis of a preliminary evaluation of available data, modified
Level D protection (defined as Level C with poly-coated tyveka and air
purifying respirators on standby) will be used for most of the work. An
exception to the use of modified Level D protection involves Taak 13 -
Pollutant Characterization. The level of protection is subject to
modification on the basis of air monitoring conducted during the work.
If air monitoring Indicates that a potential respiratory hazard exists
or wastes are encountered which pose dermal contact hazards, additional
protection may be required over and above that afforded by modified Level
D protective equipment. Higher levels of protection which nay be re-
quired would necessitate adjustments to cost and schedules. For example,
If Level B protection must be Implemented during the Soil/Soil Gas
Sampling effort in the area of magnetic anomalies, there would be a
substantial Impact on the cost for completing this task. The standard
drilling crew of two (plus a geologist) would require augmentation by
three personnel to matfctain the air line system, and to have a Level-Bl-/* •
ready person for decontamination of personnel. In addition, the effi-
ciency of the drilling operations would be reduced depending on the
weather conditions (i.e., warn or oool weather). Because this taak is
proposed for spring, a 30? reduction in efficiency would be expected. In
consideration of these factors, plus the safety equipment costs, the oost
of completing the taak may increase by 75$;
The area of Investigation (as shown in Figure 1-1) will include the
Parrlsh property north of Dry den Road Con-site"), as well as access
roads leading to the site and the areas around the site where off-site
monitoring wells/borings are proposed;
The RI/FS will use available data obtained during previous alte investi-
gations where appropriate;
The coat of analytical services (with tbt exception of tbost proposed for
Task 13) are not Included in the total cost for the RI/FS. It is assumed
that the standard priority pollutant analysis of envirocnentaf^Saaples
gathered during the RI will be performed through the U.S. EPA Contract
Laboratory Program (CLP).
1.U BUDGET . •• •
The level of effort (manhours) required for each of the three phases of the
Metanora Landfill RI/FS is as follows:
Phase 1 - Initial Activities, 1320 Labor hours
Phase 2 - Remedial Investigation, 9,686 Labor hours •
Phase 3 - Feasibility Study, 1,880 Labor hours
A total of 12,886 nanhours will be required for the RI/FS. This assumes that
the full-scale programs described in Tasks 10 and 12 will be implemented.
The total for Phase III, .the Feasibility Study, does not include manhours
needed to perform laboratory studies or extensive computer modeling which nay
be required (Optional Task 24) . The manpower estimates for these studies will
be determined during the preparation of a work plan, If one la required. The
labor hours and cost estimates for the RI/FS are presented la Section (.0.
1.5 SCHEDULE
It is estimated that the RJ/TS for the Metanora Landfill Site will take 13
months to ooaplete following approval of the work plan and authorization to'•
begin work. The RI/FS schedule has been developed assuming a 45 day turn-
around for analytical results from the U.S. EPA CLP. In addition, the U.S.
EPA and DNR review tit* for draft and final report* is estiMted at one to
three weeks. The detailed schedule Is 'presented in Section 4.0.
2.0 PLAN OF WORK
2.1 IHITIAL ACTIVITIES (PHASE I)
A total of seven tasks have bean identified for Phase I, Initial ActlTltiaa.
They are as follows:
Taak 1 - Prepare Work Plan
Task 2 - Prepare Quality Auuranoa Project Plan (QAPP)
Task 3 - Describe Currant Situation .
Task « - Prepare Health and Safety Plan (RASP)
Task 5 - Preinvestigation Evaluation
Taak 6 - Site Preparation
Taak 7 - Community Ralationa
Task 1: Prepare Work Plan •• -. -t -.. '
The Work Plan which will be prepared for the Hetaaora Landfill aite ReMdlal
Investigation/Feasibility Study (RI/FS) will describe:
o the initial activitlea to b« undertaken prior to the RI/73;
o the tasks to be completed during the RI to establiah the nature and
extent of contamination; and
o the tasks to b« completed during th* FS which will lead to th* aeleqttpn' *
of a cost-effective remedial alternative for th* ait*.•
Because of the ait* conditions at the ttotamora Landfill that mak* explorations
difficult and thus expensive, DNR requested that the work plan should contain
a detailed presentation of the rationale and methods for each of the RI tasks <
Specific instruments and/or equipaent are described in the following RI task
descriptions. It must be emphasized that the availability of equipaent is
sometimes limited due to other on-going projects, and in the event that a
specific item Is not available, a comparable unit that provides the same type
of data or information will be used.
In addition to detailed RI task descriptions, DHR required th* estimated
budget for Phases I and II of the RI/FS to be presented by task. For two•*
'tasks, DNR has requested a presentation of pilot and full-scale 'programs for
consideration. The cost information, together with the detailed narratives
for each task, will allow DNR to evaluate and coat-effectiveness of each task
or sub-task prior to granting authorization for the proposed work. ;
Task 2; Prepare Quality Assurance Pro.lect Plan (QAPP)
A QAPP will be prepared for the Metamora Landfill project that is consistent
with EPA guidelines. The QAPP will describe the procedures to be used in the
collection of samples, non-CLP analysis of samples, generation of data aad
assessment of data during the RI/FS to assure that valid, appropriate methods
ar* consistently applied toward achieving project objectives. Jordan will be
responsible for the quality assurance review of data generated during the
investigations.
Task 3: Describe Current Situation .
The objective of Task 3 Is to prepare an up-to-date description of the condi-
tions currently existing at the site. Since the report of the .reoent Jordan
Site Investigation (SI) will include discussions of work through August 1985,
an extensive update does not seeo warranted.
If significant now data Is identified, it will be presented in a brief written
summary. " «

Jordan will retain a subcontractor to prepare areas for: 1) the installation
of temporary office, *quipe»nt storage, saaple storage and staging, and safety
facilities including portable toilets; 2) equipment and personnel decontamina-
tion; and 3) the storage of adequate supplies of Glean water for drinking and
washing. The DNP is responsible fpj^fiobile teaporary office facilities "for
D N R , utility services (electricity and telephone) for the site trailers, and
*site access to use the areas necessary for these purposes. Currently, two
trailers exist at the site - one provided by DNR as a temporary office, and
one provided by Jordan which is used mainly for storage. For the RI, 'Jordan
will provide a third trailer to be used for on-site testing. Electrical and
telephone connections will be provided by Jordan0 for the on-aite testing
trailer. Padlock hasps and padlocks will be installed on the trailers as

for temporary water supply, the delivery, maintenance, and removal of portable
toilets at the site, and the removal of non-hazardous refuse generated as arf
result of th'e investigation. The budget assumes that water for decontaaina-•9
tion will t>« provided at no cost. If a charge is made for decontamination
water, that cost will have to be added to the budget.
Electrical service and a telephone line will be provided for the trailer to be
used for on-aite testing. An allowance of (2,500 is provided for electrical^ .. **

ties for DHR and Jordan staff including a water tank and all the neoeasary
decontamination equipment. At on-alte or off-site locations outside the
Igeneral disposal area (see Figure 2-1), decontamination will be conducted at
that location. Within the general dlapoaal area, all decontamination activi-
ties will take place at one of two central locations, alaf shown in Figure
2-1. These stations will be used for personnel decontamination aa well as4
equipment decontamination.
Decontamination procedures for the P.I will be the same aa those followed
during the SI. A typical layout for the centralized decontamination atations
is shown in Figure 2-2. An area will be established foV debon of mall*
equipment such aa split-spoons, bailers, aoil gaa probes, etc., that ia easily
accessible without interfering with personnel deoon. This area will provide
space for an. equipment drop, equipment disassembly, plus waahing, rinsing, and:
drying.
t -
A separate area wil l be established for personnel decon. This area will
provide for the removal and disposal of expendable items (booties, tyve'fcfo, ,
gloves), plus boot wash, boot rinse, glove wash, glove rinse, and a dryingf
area. ' " - • ' "
Another area of the deoon station will be designated for decon of- large
equipment such .as drilling tools. A steam cleaner will be stationed at this
location.
A disposal drum will be located in the decon area to hold spent deoon watert
and rinse water. A water tank with potable water will also be provided:

If Task 13 (Pollutant Characterization) is to be undertaken, Jordan will
provide on-site facilities for the collection of decontamination water and
wastes generated during the cleanup of equipment used to excavate and trans-
port wastes within the site. The facilities are described in detail In the .
Task 13 discussion.
e. Site study Grid. If the site study grid is not surveyed by DHR, Jordan*
will establish a surveyed grid to meet the need's of this study for accurately
locating measurement points. Jordan will re-establish the grid originally
placed by DNH for the magnetometer survey, if necessary, and any additional
grid pattern will be tied into the original grid. If it is not possible to
re-establish the DNF grid, a new one will be initiated by Jordan.
The grid will have nodes on 200-foot centers; closer spacing of nodes will- be
accomplished as needed. Ill measurement points will be located with respect
to the grid coordinates by measuring from the nearest grid stake. Various
data points outside the grid system will be individually located and tied into
the nearest grid s£ake by a surveyor. Air/Land Surveys, of Clarkston, HI will
establish the grid, and locate it on the topographic base map. .
The actual grid extent will be contingent on the conduct of the full-scale
Geophysical Investigation and the full-scale Soil Gaa Survey. Because of
this, it is anticipated that the grid will have to be surveyed In phases. The•'•*
phase I grid will cover all areas where magnetometer measurements, resistivity
soundings and seismio profiling will be done (Task 10, .pilot Geophysical
Investigation), in addition to locations for Soil/Soil Gas Saapling (Task I I ) ,
and the pilot Soil Gas Survey (Task 12). These areas are shown In Figures
2-U, 2-6 and 2-9. The phase I grid can b« envisioned as several smaller grids
tied into each other by single survey lines. An allowance of $7,000 has been
provided for the phase I grid. . •
If it is decided that the full-scale investigations will be feasible, then' in
phase II the grid will be expanded to aoconodate this need. The areas covered
by the full-scale Geophysical Investigation and the full-scale Soil Gas Survey
are shown in Figures 2-6 and 2-9- These areas will be covered by the phase II
grid. The phase II grid will not be complete across the entire area due to
poor site access, but it will cover all data points for the full-scale sur-
veys . The cost of the phase II grid has been included.in the budget for the
full-scale Geophysical Investigation (for the appropriate areas) and the
full-scale Soil Gas Survey (for the appropriate areas).^
The phase I or the phase jll part of the grid will be adjusted, as necessary,
to meet the needs of this project.
^
f. Fencing. Jordan will provide approximately 1300 feet of security fencing
for the headquarters area and other portions of the study area as necessary to
discourage unauthorised access. The feme will be a 6-foot chain link type
with well anchored posta.>The fence will be tied into the existing fence£•
owned toy Mr. Parrisb, if possible. Two gates will be installed in suitable**
locations. The DNR will be responsible for posting signs.
Task 7: Community Relations
The community relations program for the Metaaora Landfill site will be con-
ducted by DNR with support from Jordan. .Jordan la prepared to provide support
in tbe following areas:
o oeet with local officials to determine tbeir concerns and community
relations needs; .
o periodically brief local and county officials regarding current activi-
ties during the on-aite activities;
o provide information to DNS for press releases during tbe RI/FS; and*
o prepare information to be presented at public meetings.
Community relations activities will be ongoing during tbe entire project.
2.2 REMEDIAL INVESTICATIOH (PHASE II)
oA total of 13 tasks nave been identified for tbe Remedial Investigation. They
are as follows:
Taak 6 - Site Inventory
Task 9 -.Air Investigation
Task 10 - Geophysical Investigation-«»•»
Task 11 - Soil/Soil Gas Samplingv
Task 12 - Soil Gas Survey
Task 13 - Pollutant Characterization
Task 1« - Monitoring Well Installation
Task 15 - Groundwater Sampling •
Task 16 - Surface Water and .Sediment Sampling
Task 17 - Aquifer Testing
Task 18 - Analytical Program
Task 19 - Data Interpretation
Task 20 - RI Report
The sequence of events and the relationships between the different RI field .
tasks are shown in Figure 2-3, Clearly, several tasks are contingent on
information gained during preceding tasks. Monitoring well locations will
ultimately be selected based on information gathered during the Geophysical
Investigation and the Soil Gas Survey. The Geophysical Investigation (If the
pilot surveys are sucessful) will provide data on subsurface stratigraphy and
possibly the vertical and horizontal extent of inorganic groundwater contami-
nation in the sand and gravel* aquifer. The Soil Gas Survey (if the pilot'
survey is suoeasful) will provide Information on the horizontal extent of
volatile organic groundwater contamination. Both of these tasks could greatly
affect the location and depths-of monitoring wells to be installed at the/ ' "
Metamora Landfill. . • , , . •

If neither the Geophysical Investigation nor the Soil Gas Survey is success- .
ful, monitoring well locations will be selected based on information gained
during the SI. The well locations presented in this work plan are based o.n
the SI. '
k
The installation of .monitoring wells is one. of the most important tasks of tha
RI. It will provide a means for collecting groundwater samples, .investigating
the geologic setting of the'site, and performing piezometer tests*. Piezometer
tests will be conducted so that groundwater flow rates can be estimated and ao •
pump test can be. designed. A pump teat will provide data on aquifer charac-
teristics which can be used during the Feasibility Study to design a groundwa-
ter purge system, if necessary.
The magnetometer survey (part of the,Geophysical Investigation) is essential
to the Pollutant Characterization task (Task.13). The magnetometer survey
will refine the lateral boundaries of buried ferrous materials in anomalous -.
area 4. During the Pollutant Characterization task, wastes from drums In this
area will be sampled and characterized and/or analyzed. Waste oharaeteriza--•*.
tlon is extremely important so that proper remedial action alternatives can be
selected for the site. •
• During the Soil/Soil Gas Sampling task (Task 11) , soil samples will be col-
lected and then analyzed to provide Information on soil chemistry (i.e., type"
and degree of-.contamination) around anomalous areas 1 and. >.. This* information
will be useful for the Pollutant Characterization task (Task 13) and the
'contaminant assessment portion of the RI report and the Feasibility Study-. .
Soil, gas samples will also be collected as part or this task, and they will .**• *

Surface Water and Sediment' Sampling is the pnj)y task that' is somewhat Indepen-
dent of the other tasks. This.task will provide, information that gives an
indication of migration pathways, on- and off •'site. This information, is.
important to the identification of potential receptors.- ' ' . - . : V ' ' • . *
Throughout RI activities, the air investigation will be an on-going survey of,
a'ir quality in working areas. The main purpose of this investigation is'to
assure that-proper respiratory protection is,being used.
All data accumulated during the RI field tasks will be interpreted and o. ' ••' ' '' • .»
piled in. the RI report, and later used in tbe Feasibility Study,
During the Hetamora Landfill site.RI, It Is anticipated that some coordinationo • • • '
efforts by DNR with the gravel mining operator, the transfer station operator;,
and area residents, .will be necessary. Clearly, all of .the-fie,ld M- ao&vi-. ,;
ties will require permission from, nearby property owners to obtain site , • .,
access. In addition* it is possible that the transfer station and the gravel
mining operation may have to be temporarily suspended if air-born contaminants
are released during RI activities in concentrations that could potentially
cause a threat to human health and/or tbt environment. Nearby residents will
also b« informed of emergency evacuation procedures in the event of a hazard-
ous air-born contaminant release, although the possibility of this occurrence
is highly unlikely.
The following tasks have been identified as events that may cause soae incon-
^venience to nearny businesses and/or residents: '
o Task 10 - Geophysical Investigation
o Task 12 - Soil Gas Survey
o Task 13 - Pollutant Characterization
o Task 1H - Monitoring Veil Installation
Task 17 - Aquifer Testing
Task 10 - Geophysical Investigation: The seismic survey will require some
explosive work that may be noticeable to nearby residents. It ia anticipated
that these detonations will be low level, muffled noises acooapanied (possi-
bly) by slight tremors that will not cause a significant disturbance.
X -Geophysical survey Unas, either seismic or resistivity, that are planned in
the gravel or transfer station area nay require these operations to temporari-
ly cease work. If possible, some of the geophysics work will be done on
Sundays when both operations are closed down. Otherwise, it may be necessary
to temporarily cease work in these areas during the conduct of the surveys to
prevent possible equipment damage and/or undesirable effects on the geophysi-
cal data .
•*
Geophysical survey lines in the wooded area north' of the site may require son*
brush and possibly tree clearing to provide access, iny clearing done In this
area will be carefully planned to accommodate as many other subsequent activi-
ties as possible.
Task 12 - Soil Gag Survey: The full scale soil gas survey will require
considerable brush and tree clearing and possible road construction along the
tvo E-W lines shown on Figure 2-9 to provide access for the drilling rig.
Task 13 - Pollutant Characterization: It la not anticipated that the
pollutant characterization task will require the gravel operation to abut
down, but scae cooperation by the operator will be necessary, in exit route .
from the areas of investigation must always remain open and unobstructed by
heavy equipment or other obstacles. Also, the water level in the pond
adjacent to anomaly 4 must be maintained at a reasonably low level so-that
water and/or silt does not flow into the working area. It may be necessaryi
prior to beginning this task for a geotechnical engineer
to preliminarily assess the stability of this area with respect to the excava-
tions that will be taking place.
Task U - Monitoring Veil Installation: Well Installation will require brush
and tree clearing to provide access for the drilling rig. If the clearing
done to provide access during the geophysical investigation and the soil gas
survey is not adequate, some roadways may have to be, provided, for this task.'
t
Residents may notice some noise associated with the drilling operation,
although it is anticipated that this disturbance will be minimal. ' '
Task 17 - Aquifer Testing; This task will effect the gravel mining operationst
only. If the on-site well is to be used as the pumping well, it will have to
be shut down at least two days prior to initiation of the pump test, and
c lea r ly it wil l not be available for use during the test. The problem of
pumped w a t e r disposal has not been resolved yet, but an attractive alternative
is to pipe the water to one of the on-site pits. This may also have an effect
on the gravel operations'.
Task 8: Site Inventory
,' 1
The objective of a site inventory is to Identify, to the extent possible from
available data, the quantity and character of pollutants that may exist at the
site. The majority of the data required for this task has been compiled In
the SI Report and the Phased Feasibility Study for the aite. Since it is
expected that the objectives of this task will be net as part of other activi-
ties, no additional hours are provided for Task 8.
*
Task 9: Air Investigation
i
Previous investigations at the Metamora Landfill site have not indicated
significant degradation of ambient air quality, although methane was enooun-* ,
tered during the SI. An explosiaeter will be employed during the. HI to
monitor methane concentrations. ' '
The proposed air quality investigation at the Metanora alte will b« limited to
air Quality monitoring with a pbotoionizatlon (PI) meter (e.g., HND, TIP*)
during all field activities, except for Task 13. A separate air monitoring
plan has b«en developed for the Pollutant Characterization task. In the•
event that air monitoring results indicate a need for personnel respiratoryV
pro tec t ion , an expanded air quality investigation program has been designed to
address the specific problem area. This expanded program may be modified- aS
necessary to meet the needs of the situation. • .
Releases of air-born contaminants during the RI are moat likely* to occur while. ' : • ' •
drilling, thus a drilling situation will be used as an example. Other site
activitea such as geophysics, groundwater sampling, aurfaoe "water and sediment«
sampling, etc., are not as likely to cause air-born contaminant releases.f
^ '/•"'If PI meter readings in the breathing zone consistently range from above '
* . *
background to 5 ppn while drilling, level C protection will be worn'(as
' '.' •• i- ' i
specified In the HASP). If PI meter readings exceed the Action level of 5
ppo, workers will upgrade to level B (also specified in the HASP) and a nore
extensive air monitoring program will be initiated. It will be desirable att
this point to sample and analyze ambient air samples to better evaluate the
need for more expensive level B protection. • . .
To do this, air sampling pumps (such as MSA Monitaire Samplers) will be
equipped with standard 100 mg activated charcoal sorbent tubes, and placed at
various locations at or near the apparent source of contaminantion. Based on .. '» * >
information obtained during the SI and previous site activities, activated .• i • • '••
charcoal tubes will adsorb volatile or garlics that might be expected In the• * %
breathing zone. The pumps will be. placed on the driller or helper, .and on .
another person nearby. In addition, one pump will be placed at a location' * • •
within 15 feet of the working area by taping or fastening it to a stake, tree, .
or other stationary object. If PI aeter readings remain high, downwind
samples will also b« collected at about 15 to 20 feet from the contaminant
source. If necessary, additional samples may be collected from locations
further downwind of the working area.
The pumps will run for a minimum of four hours, and during this tiae workers•
I •-•
will continue to work at the upgraded level of protection. The sorbent tubea
; will then be aent to Clayton Environmental Laboratory for Identification and '
quantification by GC/MS. Once the contaminants are identified, personnel • '
respiratory protection measures will be reviewed by Jordan in conjunction with» f
DNS. ' . . * » ' • • • •
Task 10: Geophysical Investigation
v
The proposed Geophysical Investigation at the Metamora Landfill site will
consist of three different geophysical surveys: magnetometer, resistivity and
seisaic. The magnetometer survey will be conducted to delineate the horizon-
tal extent of buried metal around Anomaly 4, and to. screen specific drilling
locations, as needed. The resistivity and seismic surveys will be uaed to
better define subsurface geologic and hydrogeologic conditions. Both pilot
and full-scale surveys are discussed below.
Magnetometer Survey. Magnetometer and/or metal detector screening w'ill be
done at selected boring locations to determine, within the limitations of each
exploration tool, that the location is clear of buried octal objects. The
metal detector which will be used is a Fisher M-Scope Model TV-5 Pip* and
Cable Locator. The magnetometer will be a Geoaetrics G-816 (total field)
proton precession magnetometer.
The field procedure for screening will consist of an initial site "walkover"
in the vicinity of the proposed staked borehole location with the metal
detector. The walkover area will be Within a radius of about 25 feet of the' •*»
stake. The instrument operator will be especially careful in the Immediate
vicinity of the stake, employing different instrument sensitivity settings to
ascertain as accurately as possible the presence of any buried metal In the
area, the results of this walkover will be recorded in a field notebook and
any positive indications of metal will be flagged in the field at that tin*.
'
lie
*• 'A limited magnetpmeter survey will also be done in the vicinity of each bore-
- - - 4 . '•hole where the possibility of advancing through buried debris exists. This
survey will consist, as a minimum, of two orthogonal magnetic traverses with ^* •* • . """
individual magnetic stations established at least every 5 feett along eachi • ** ' ' . • »
traverse. The traverses will be a mlnlnuo of, 50- feet loag-( Centered on the.•: * ' ' +" * • •
* i • '
borehole stake). Additional traverses -will be conducted; if , in the opinion-' of
the field party chief, there are sufficient variations in the magnetic 'field
values from station to station to warrant, additional measurements.. The
presence of large variations in the magnetic field over, a short distance is an
indication of possible buried metal ;and might lead to the recommendation that• _i
a d i f fe ren t borehole site (perhaps only tens of fe'et away) be chosen.
*.
Interpretation of these data will c.onsist of a subjective evaluation of the. ,*" • .'metal detector walkover (is metal present in detectable amounts?) and • quail -
itative interpretation of the results of the magnetic traverses-. To do this,
, * .*' .> fthe magnetic data wftl be plotted with horizontal distance (z> versus trotal
field intensity (y). ""Buried metal will create magnetic "noise* which will be
evidenced by either significant variation between adjacent station 'readings or
well, defined magnettlo highs and/or lows,
i
A magnetometer survey will be conducted in the two-acre area shown on Figure
2-4. This area is located west of a portion of the landfill which was inves-
tigated with a magnetometer survey by DNR la 1982 (DNR report entitled "Mag-
netic Survey, Ketamora Landfill, He tamo ra Township, Lapeer County", Area 4).
An EDA Oranl VI magnetic gradlometer will be employed on a/Jj-foot grid within
the survey area. Output from this proton precesion instrument consists of the
magnetic (total f ie ld) value and the magnetic gradient between two magneticf *
sensors situated at different heights above the ground. Individual traverses
will be oriented north and south. The gradiometer will be used to refine the,
vertical and areal extent of any buried, metallic wastes.
The survey area indentified in Figure 2-4 ta subject to modification on the
basis of site conditions or discussions with DNR staff. The locations, of
obvious surface magnetic sources (e.g., fences, metallic surface debris) and
known buried sources (e.g., pipes or tanks) will be recorded in field note-
books by the field party and annotated on any drawings (magnetic profiles or
contour maps) which are generated for data presentation. 'This will allow the
reader to differentiate known magnetic sources from "unknown magnetic sources
due to burled drums or other metallic' objects.• '
*. v-Prior to the initiation of field work, a magnetic base station will be estab-
lished in a magnetically "quiet* area of the site to document diurnal fluotua--••*
tipns in the magnetic'field. Magnetic readings within a 24-hour period
normally vary by only a - f e w tens of gammas or leas. The base station1 will
also provide a record of any magnetic "storms" caused by solar, .activity which
may occur during the survey. The occurrence of such magnetic storms ia

recordings will be appended to the repbrt. Diurnal corrections obtained from
the baa* station wljl be applied to the raw field data prior to any data
processing. This will insure that the magnetic intensity values from traverse
o traverse are referenced to the same magnetic baseline. Jordan anticipates
that a Geometries G- 666 base station proton precession (total field)** /
magnetometer will be used to document diurnal, fluctuations.
\ "
A.100-foot grid within the-magnetometer survey area will be required for
location control. This grid, which will be established under tb. direction of
Jordan, will be tied ID with a* larger survey grid discussed below and which'**
will be used*to locate other exploration*activities. Individual magnetic,
stations will be established with reference to the survey grid with a cloth
measuring tape to insure accurate coverage.rof the area.A * '
* • • *
The survey party will consist of an instrument operator and a technician to
record field notes and magnetic valuea. The magnetometer survey will be .,
•„conducted by Mr. Richard Allen.
The magnetometer report will contain a-aite pilan showing the individual mag-
netic traverse location*. A total field magnetic contour map will be con-
structed by hand from the. plotted magnetic intensity valuea. The contour
interval for this map will vary from perhaps 20 gammas to as much as 5.00 or
1000 gammas, depending upon the magnetic gradient (the change in magnetic
integrity divided by the horizontal diatanoe over which this change occurs).
3600C
The higher the magnetic gradient, the larger the oontour interval will be.
Data interpretation will consist of selecting portions of the survey area
which contain magnetic anomalies for further study. By studying the .shape and* J'
intensity of an anomaly, the nature of the source which haa produced the' i
anomaly may be roughly determined. A second contour map of magnetic gradients
will be produced from gradiometer values.
The accompanying text will provide a discussion of each anomaly judged tq be
significant, is well as estimates of the amount of buried metal which may be
associated with each anomaly. Backup work sheets associated with the analysis
< will be included in.an appendix. -.
V
Quantification of the magnetic data will be accomplished by calculating the
approximate depth and estimating the amount of buried metal for each signifi-
cant magnetic source. For total field data, such calculations will be made
using the "half-width* rule. This is a common technique which basically
states-that for simple'forms of magnetic sources, the depth to their centers
la proportional to the half-width of the magnetic anomaly produced by the
source (Figure 2-5). If one-assumes a vertical magnetic field (a legitimate
assumption since the inclination of the magnetic field in Michigan is approxi-
mately 75 degree's from horizontal) then the depth of burial will be from 1 to
2 times the half-width of the anomaly, depending on the nature of the magnet-
ic source (sphere, vertical cylinder, horizontal cylinder, etc.). Depth
calculations will also be made using gradioeieter'data usirig the formula on* A

Electrical Resistivity Survey. .Although geologic conditions at the Metamora
sAte are complex, Jordan is hopeful that a resistivity survey will contribute
• *to a further understanding of subsurface conditions'. The results of 'the
resistivity survey may influence the location of future monitoring veils.' The
principal objectives to be addressed by thia program include':
\ . _
o definition of the general geologic setting over the entire site;» * •
•»
"'"> • • - ' ' "o- definitiorf'pf ..the clay till surface and the preaenoe of sand lenses
which .may have been incorporated into the clay.till.;

present in the unsaturated overburden. Since olayjey layers, tend to
retard and redirect-the downward percolation of precipitation and,,t • * *" *•
dissolved waste material, it is important to understand the extent"•of -their presence in the subsurface;
• i * * ' *
»<r
o definition of the bedrock 'surf ace. It should be noted that bedrock'•• - .
is presumed to be as much as 350 feet deep,, and may be beyond the
limitations of the instrumentation which has been selected for this•
work; .o
t>
o. delineation of a conductive contaminant; plume in groundwater in a. < ,'
direction downgradient from the landfill. Such a plume nay have
high concentrations of dissolved inorganic materials, although
present information indicates that auch a pluaa may not be present.\ » N
Due to the complexity of geologic conditions, a' resistivity pilot program isf i
proposed to determine if that technique" will generate useful information. Thet
pilot program will include up to two days of field activity, during which
approximately 10 vertical electrical soundings will be made.' This is based on
the assumption that a five-person, field crew can obtain six to eight vertical
soundings in one field day. It is possible that1 the rate of data acquisition

geologic Interpretation of subsurface conditions and tbe resistivity data.~f
Jordan proposes that an initial . separation of 400 feet be maintained between''•\ >
soundings' for tbe pilot program. Additional soundings are proposed along tbe
Vsouthern site boundary (Figure 2-6). One ofHhese soundings is adjacent to
Boring MW-9 which encountered a sand lens incorporated into tbe clay till.
A Keck Model No. IC-69 electrical eartb resistivity instrument witb an extra
battery pack will be used at* tbe site. Jordan anticipates using tbe Venner
electrode configuration, with ••"-spmoings of 10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 80, 100,
120, 160, 200, 240, and 320 feet for most soundings. One of tbe soundings
will be rotated by 90 degrees (tbis J.s noted on Figure 2-6). This will serve
as an internal check on data consistency and also provide insight into tbe" ,
homogeneity of geologic conditions. In addition, tbe Lee modification of tbe
Wanner electrode configuration will be made to. the rotated soundings forV
additional control on geologic homogeneity.
It is proposed that two of tbe soundings be carried out to additional*,
"»" -spacing* of- 400, 480, 640, 800, 960, and 1280 (if within tbe capabilities
of the instrument). Tbis may permit an evaluation of tbe deptb to tbe Mar-
shall Sandstone.
Data evaluation will be made on a daily basis at tbe site following eaob field
day. Da\aHb3£4)2& evaluated by computer (an IBM PC portable or equivalent)
witb TARLEM, a program written by Phillip A. Davis at tbe University of>
Minnesota (1980). In addition, a program developed by leok Consulting Servic-
es, Ino. will b« used for comparison with solutions obtained witb TARLEM. All
tic
data acquisition and evaluation for this pilot resistivity survey will be
conducted by Mr. Richard Allen. Close.coordination between Jordan and DN$• » « • '

phases. It is possible that a decision regarding the effectiveness of the
pilot program can be made prior to the conclusion of two days of field* activi
ty.
The success of the pilot program will be measured by the extent £o which
Jordan and DNH personnel perceive that objectives listed above are satisfied.
I, *
If the pilot program is successful, Jordan will be prepared to immediately
implement a more extensive resistivity program. This program will involve up
to an additional 10'vertical electrical soundings at the approximate locations
shown in Figure 2-6. Data quality and. Internal checks will be maintained by
rotating at least ten (10 percent) 'of these additional soundings and employing
the Lee modification of the Venner electrode configuration to the rotated* '
soundings for additional control on geolpglc homogeneity. A v200-foot grid In\ .
the area of the*proposed- resistivity,surveyswill be developed to provide .
survey control. Assuming that the field crew obtains eight vertical elec-
trical, soundings per field day, th« expanded resistivity program will require
a seven day field effort. As with the pilot jf^ft^ia^if the rate of data , *
acquisition is different from that which was assumed, Jordan will advise DHR
of any differences as soon as they are reliably established.
Seismic Refraction Survey. A pilot program to determine the effectiveness of* •
the seismic refraction technique will be conducted as part of this . .
investigation. If successful, the pilot program will be-expanded to encompass* * *
a larger area of the site to Develop more comprehensive subsurface informa- .• •
tion. The objectives of .the seismic survey are:
o to define the general geologic setting over the entire site; '
o to assist in. defining the depths to the water table and the top of'** *
the clay till layers. Of primary interest' is the thickness and
continuity of, the clay till which, where present, would serve as an-
' -' aquiclude between .the upper and lower aquifers beneath the site;
o to define the.depth to the top of the Marshall Sandstone, presumed '* « . . . . ' •
.. to underlie the site to depths of up to 350 feet. This information
. is important for planning future drilling activities.
o to determine the effectiveness of the technique in detecting sand
lenses incorporated in the clay till.
The pilot program will consist of 3,200 linear feet of seismic refraction
profiling along two traverses which will be located along the northern and \
southern boundaries of the site (Figure 2-6). These locations coincide wlti* 6
the pilot resistivity program and were selected because geologic control in
this portion of the site is good. A Geometries ES-2115F Signal Enhancement
Seismograph (21-channel) will be used for the selsmlo survey. The spacing
between the Individual geophones- will be either 20 or 10 feet. 1 schematici

Figure 2-7. Each seismic spread, will be 800 feet long and for eadh there wj.ll
be five separate detonations at an interval of 200 feet. This will insure'* ''
that each seismic spread is reversed (a technique referred to as reverse • '
shooting), and also, internally reversed several "times for each seismic spread..
This procedure is extremely valuable for evaluating dattf quality, .because' it
allows the interpreter to continuously monitor common parameters, such as'total

can be caused by "either undulations or deeper..horizons, or', more commonly, by

In addition to the five detonations albng*each seismic spread, there will be
an additional "offset* detonation 800 feet off each end of a spread to insure
that the deepest refracting horizon is -defined with adequate, detail. The• * *
800-foot offset distance may be reduced to 400 feet If energy attenuation* ' ' " • " . ' - . : '

Jordan is concerned that the presence of thick unsaturated deposits at the.«^• '.' ' '" •.

shallow penetration seismic, surveys (up to 200 feet), it Is possible to
generate sufficient seismic energy with either a sledgehammer or small burled •«
explosive charges (1/2 pound of dynamite or less). Since relatively long
seismic spreads (800 feet .plus the offset distance) will be required to define*
the bedrock surface, Jordan anticipates that relatively large explosive /
charges (5 to 10 pounds bf 60) dynamite, or perhaps* even core) will-be re-;-'\ * •
quired to generate a suff icient seismic signal to travel this distance. For
purposes of this cost estimate, Jordan had assumed that a bar-driven shot bolef

.(or hole) to a. depth of 1) to 5 feet will'be adequate to acoomodate the re-
quired amount of explosive for this work. Initially, 2-lb. charges will be
used, and the quantity of explosives will be adjusted as necessary to maintain• •* *

Tasic 11: Soil/Soil Oaa Sampling
Since subsurface geology- cbntrols groundwater flow, a detailed and ooapreben-
slve understanding of the subsurface conditions are necessary to define the^
groundwater regime. However, the ultimate aubsurfaoe distribution pattern of^»
chemicals in soil and groundwater is controlled by the initia^ placement of
. .contaminants it the alt*. For this reason, the work plan Includes soil
•
sampling to obtain information on the present distribution of chemicals IB
,solla In the vicinity of the two magnetic anomalies which ara looatad outalda
th« major fill ar«a (Araaa 1 and 4). In addition to collecting soil aaaplas,
aoil gas samples will alao ba collected during drilling to assist in evaluat-4.
ing the value of a full-acale Soil Gas Survey.
Jordan proposes to drill tan boreholes up to 50 fact daap for tht purpose of•
olgM4£ing subsurfaoe soil samples for chemical analysis. The proposed
boreholes are located around magnetic anomalies 1 and *, as shown la Pleura\
2-9. Exact locations will be decided by Jordan and MIR Ip the field.
Each boring location will be screened with a magnetometer before drilling
begins. The boreholes will be made with a CME-55 drilling rig using 3 1/4
inch ID.(or smaller) hollow stem .augers. Two-foot long split-spoon samples
will be obtained at 10-foot Intervals beginning at the surface and extending
to the bottom of the boring. The spoons will either be pushed or hammered •^ _ •
into the soil. A total of 50 split-spoon samples will be^fioJrrtated, and- it is
anticipated that 30 samples will be submitted to a contract/Lab for chemical '.^r
analysis. ' . . .

length of the sample. The samples will be described in terns of geolog-

ination (e.g., discoloration, sheen, oil, etc.). To complete the screening
process, the saaples will be placed In VOX vials so that the headspa.ce gases
can be. analyzed with a portable GC (Phot ova c 10550).
These screening procedures will Identify saaples oontaainated with volatile
organic compounds. No effective field screening procedure* are available for
PCBs and other seal-volatile organic compounds that would work at the Metaaora
Landfill site. It is unlikely, however, that an area of substantial
seal-volatile contamination would go undetected by'one of the screening
processes since the volatile organics are likely to precede or accompany the
semi-volatile organica. .i •
Although the screening process w^ll identify the aost oontaainated soil
saaples, saaples will-be selected for laboratory analysis so that a range of
geologic materials and many degrees of contamination are* represented< Some
saaples believed to be ancontaainated will be Included, ill samples jars will
be provided by the CLP. The 30 soil saaples selected, for chemical analysis• \
will be analysed for the complete inorganic and organic analysis packages
through the CLP. The handling, labeling and shipping of these saaples will be
perfqrmed by .Jordan in accordance with CLP procedures.
V
is stated above,'soil gms saaples will also be collected during drilling of •
the ten 50-foot borings. Collecting and analyzing these soil gas saaples will
provide an Indication of the elevation above the water table whwre volatile
organic compounds can be detected. The chemical data for nearby wells will be
used to make comparisons between soil gaa 'chemistry and* grounflwater chemistry.
Contaminant concentrations found in MW-17S can be usfed at Anomaly 1, and^x.
similar data from HV-6 and MW-16 can be used at Anomaly 4.
Soil gas samples will be collected after each split-spoon is extracted for a
total of 50 soil gas samples. A stainless steel probe'( approximately 1 to 1
1/2 inches in diameter) will be pushed into the borehole usingthe rig's
hydraulic system. The probe will consist of ten 5-foot section? Ind one
3-foot section that thread together. The down-hole end of the probe will be -
tappered to, a point to enable the probe to more easily penetrate the soil.
Several small diameter openings (approximately 1/16 inch in diameter) will
'provide inlets for soil gas to enter the lower 1-foot section of the probe.
Once the probe is in place, a reducer will be threaded onto the upper section,
and smkll diameter (approximately 1/8 inch) tygon tubing will be connected to
the reducer (se« Figure 2-10). The'other end of the tubing will connect to a'
500 ml, glass, gas sample bulb with Teflon stopcocks at both ends and a septum
in the center.- Tygon tubing, attached to a battery-powered vacuum pump, will
be attached to the other end of the bulb making the gaa sample bulb "in-line"
between the probe and the vacuum. 'A vacuum will be applied .for 10 to 12 •
minutes to purge the probe, gas sample bulb, and tubing of ambient aif. Tola.*3

field lab where the GC will be located.- The sample will be extracted from the
bulb through the septum with a syringe. The soil gas samples will be analysed
on-site using a Photovac 10S50 OVA operated as a field GC. This OC provides* \
computerized identification and quantification capabilities. It enables the
analyst to develop libraries of standards, store them in the instrument's
memory, and automatically compare sample results with these libraries.
Manufacturer's literature on the Photovac 10S50-is included in Appendix A.r ' %
' . \After obtaining a gas sample, the probe will be removed and the entire probe
will be decontaminated with TSF and water, followed by a distilled water• . »
rinse. Mew tygon tubing will be used for each sample. The g*s- sample bulbs^
will be flushed with hydrocarbon-free air between samples by connecting -them
to a vacuum pump for about 2 minutes.
V t
When measurable amounts of contamination are detected in a sample, the GC
operator will extract and then analyze blank air samples from the'air-flushedt
gas bulbs. This will also be done with the syringes. In this case., the*
syringe will simply be filled with hydrocarbon-free air and'injected into the
GC to assure that no residuals are present in the syringe. During the course
of the survey, several blanks will also be run on the probe assembly to ensure
that the deoon procedures are effective and that cross contamination' Is not
occurring. This will be accomplished by pumping hydrooarbon-free air through
the probe assembly after deoon, using the saae procedures followed for-actual
samples.

All down-hole equipment will.be steam cleaned between boreholes. Split-spoons
will be wished with TSP and water, and then rinsed with distilled water
between samples. See Task 14 for drummed material screening and handling.~j » *
The boreholes will be filled with a heavy bentonite/peaent slurry after
sampling. •
Task 12: Soil Gas Survey
« » '
Preliminary information on the feasibility of a^soil gas'survey at the
Ketaaora Landfill site will be obtained during the Soil/Soil. Gas Saapllng task
(Task -11). Unless soil gas saapllng Is deemed impractical for the Metamorao ' .
site, based on the results of Task 11, the pilot program will be initiated.
The pilot surrey will consist of soil gas samples collected at tea locations. / * «.
distributed around the site (see Figure 2-9). These locations were selected
so that a wide range of volatile organic concentrations and.saturated tone
thicknesses would be encountered, ill soil gas sample locations were placed
near existing monitoring wells ao that cbeaioal data on groundwater samples
could be used for comparison purposes. The exact locations of these borings
will be determined by Jordan and DNR in the field. * '
Because of-the considerable depth to groundwater at the site, .a CHE-55 drill-
ing rig equipped to drill boreholes with hollow stem augers (3 .1/1 inch ID or
smaller) will be used to assist in the placement of the soil gas probes. Ift
the designated rig*is not suitable for this survey because of aooess problems,
Mathis can supply an ITT (all terrain vehicle). The maxLmw total depth of
each boring will be 50 feet, although the results of the preliminary soil gas
samples (Task 11) nay indicate that revisions in boring depths are necessary. •
After the borehole'has been advanced to 50 feet, a split-spoon soil samples
will be extracted, and the probe will be lowered into the borehole and pushed
into the soil with the rig's hydraulic system. The methodology for sample, •' *
collection will be the same as that described In Task. 11. It is anticipated
that the augers will remain in place while the soil gas saaple is being
extracted, since this wi-11 prevent soil fgom sloughing off the sides of the' t
borehole and falling to the bottom. If the borehole stays open and does not
slough, it may be possible to take •soil gas samples from the open borehole,* • •
enabling the drill rig to work ahead of the soil gas sampler.
Following completion of the field work and an analysis of the GC data, Jordan
'and DNR will determine if a more extensive soil gas survey is advislble. The
important aspects to consider when evaluating the feasibility of a full-scale•» '
ri»
Soil Gas Survey will be 1} the depth necessary to detect volatile organloa; 2)
the correlation between soil gms chemistry and groundwater chemistry; 3) the
feasibility of drilling boreholes with hollow stem augers; and 4) the costs
involved in obtaining soil gas saaples compared to well installation costs.. A
tentative, full-eoale survey is described below.
.The tentative sampling locations for a full-scale So±\ Gas Survey, are shown la* . • *
Figure 2-9. These locations were selected baaed on 1) • preliminary groundwa-
ter contamination pltaM boundary constructed from data collected during the.
SI; and 2) areas accessible by a drilling'rig. Slnoe the mala purpose of
conducting the full-scale Soil Gas Surrey is to attempt to/ outline the vola-/ -
tile organic groundwater oontaalnatlon plume, an expanded survey will probably
be most useful north of the disposal areas In the direction of groundvater(
flow. Exact sampling locations will be selected by Jordan and DNR prior to
initiation of this task. •
Ideally, a full-scale survey should be a flexible, progressive prograa with• ' '
saaple locations dependent on CC results froa previous locations. This way
the lateral extent of a groundwater contamination plume could be quite aoou-*
rately delineated. Unfortunately, at the Metaaora Landfill, the area north of
the site is virtually inaccessible due to heavy woods. Therefore, a'flexible
progressive prograa is not entirely possible. To provide, access for the
drilling rig.in the wooded area, It is proposed that two roadways be oon-t
structftd in the northern portion of the survey area. These roads would also
provide access for geophysical survey lines and the 'installation of groundwa-
ter monitoring wells. The -full-scale survey also includes locations east,
west and south of the disposal areas so that the extent of oontaalnatlon can
be investigated on all sides.
For budgeting purposes, the full-scale Soil Gaa Survey is aasxned to consist*
of 82 soil gas saaples at various locations across the site. Saaples will be
taken at a depth of 20-feet froa boreholes drilled with hollow stea augers.
Saapllng at a 20-foot depth was proposed sine* 'a full-scale Soil Gas Survey/ «*iconducted st greater depths7probably would not be economically feasible. The
prograai however, is flexible, and the number of boring locations could be
reduced to allow for sampling at greater depths.

To accomplish these goals, Jordan proposes to utilize the services of Great
Lakes Environmental to excavate six individual test pits within each of these
areas. For budgeting purposes, it is estimated that 100 drums will be removed
from each of these test pits, overpacked (aa'necessary), sampled, field tested, ^
for compatibility, and staged. Because the condition of the drums to bet
excavated is unknown, Jordan has assumed for budgeting purposes -.^.at 50 drumsi
can be excavated, sampled and staged, per day. Due to the bazar.a inherent to
this activity, all test pitting, overpacking, and sampling activities will be

gram, Jordan proposes to ship 150 samples to CLP laboratories for organic and
inorganic analysis, plus dio'xin analysis. The 150 samples will alao be 't,
shipped to Clayton Environmental Consultants, Inc. laboratory for EP toxicity
analysis of metals and organics, plus PCBs.
Schedule. Jordan has scheduled this program during November, 1986 for the%
following reasons:
o because of the confirmed presence of highly flammable and toxic
volatile organic compounds, and the potential of ijeleaae during
these activities, it is highly recommended that these activities be
conducted during oool or oold weatber;r
63WC
•**'.-
o due to the poaaiblt need for site •violation during tbese opsra-
tions, investigative personnel not directly involved vitb these
activities should not be on-slte during the oooduot of this?
program. Gravel mining and transfer atation personnel will be made
familiar with evacuation procedures;
o earthaoving, road construction sod drum ataging activities may• •
interfere with other planned activitiea including magnetometer
surveys, soil gas surveys, and subsurface soil sampling; and
/ . •o the planned Bagnetooeter survey, soil gss survey,, and .subsurface
aoil sampling programs are expected to provide a more detailed and
accurate description of what hazards should be expected during these
test pit activities. This will allow for core detailed planning
^. prior to coBUMnoenent of this'activity (e.g. narrowing or broadening' s
areas covered, specialized continuous no nit or ing for specific
compounds observed, etc.).
It has been assumed that the DNR will make arrangements with the appropriate
police, fire, and emergency response agencies. It is also expected that the
DNR will obtain the required O.P laboratory space at the appropriate time.
Air Quality Survey. Because of the potential release of volatile organic
compounds during excavation, and the resultant impact on ambient air quality,
a more thorough air quality survey will be conducted during the test pittingo
program. Tba-Aurpose of this survey will be to determine the impact of the
64B0C
excavation activities on on-site and off-alt* ambient air quality. This
information will be utilized to aodlfy (as necessary) the health and safety
procedures followed during these activities, and to establish potential
Impacts of various remedial alternatives being considered for the site.
\\
Four aabient air monitoring stations will be established at each of the areas
to be investigated. Approximate locations are shown on Figures 2-12 and 2-13-
A fifth station will be established downwind of the excavation at the site
fenceline. ictual locations will be determined in the field by CNR and
Jordan, baaed upon wind direction and other site conditions.
Each station will consist of a calibrated MSA Samplair Air* pump (or equiva-
len t ; equipped with 50/100 mg MSA charcoal tubes. One station will be chosen
to hav« two pumps in order to collect duplicate saaples. These tubes will
ef f ic ient ly collect the vast majority of volatile organic compounds known to
exist it the site. Sampling will be conducted prior to commencement of the
excavation activities to establish background air quality, and throughout each
day during the excavation activities. Samples collected will be packaged (on
Ice) , and transported to Clayton Environmental Consultants at the end of each
day foe OC/KS analysis (Scans 1 and 2 parameters). Results will be available
within 48 hour* of receipt of the samples. Based upon a 2* day excavation
program (with daily field blanks and duplicates), 168 aamplea'wlll be submit-
ted for analysis.
65BOC
Wind speed and direction will be monitored throughout this program using a
Sierra Hiaoo Model 1036 wind speed and direction system (or equivalent), and
general weather conditions, including temperature, will alao be noted.
In addition, wind flags will be erected at eaob of these stations and at a
location immediately adjacent the test pit being excavated. These will serve
to indicate wind direction to tboae personnel working near the pit In the
event evacuation to a location upwind is necessary, ilso, FZ meters (HOT or
TIP) will be used at the test pit, the decontamination table, and at the drum
staging area to provide real-time Indications of airborne contaminant concen-
trations. V . '
Site Preparation, la mentioned previously, it is anticipated that approxi-
mately 600 drums will be excavated from each of the two anomalous areas.
These drums will require staging In an are* designed to minimize the Impact of
possible spills which might occur. Two staging areas will be constructed, one
to service each of the areas to be'Investigated, in the approximate locations
abovn on Figures 2-12 and 2-13. Actual locations for these staging areas will
b« determined by DNR and Jordan In the field.
Eaob staging area will be approximate^ 125 f*«t square, and be surrounded by
a two foot wide, one-and-a-half foot high berm. Each area will be cinstructed
of a 6 mil visquene liner, 'Covered with three to four inches of sand (brought
in from off-site), covered hj a second 6 mil visquene liner, and another three
to four inches of sand, litbough the PTC liner would not be appropriate for
long term storage of the materials expected to be encountered, Jordan feels
66WC
the liner system described above is the Boat ooat effeotiTe for the purposes
of this effort, as these drums will be inspected daily and should be removed
for ultimate disposal within 90 days, ilso, a 4 foot nigh "anew fence" will
be erected around each of these staging areas to prevent unauthorited entry.
In additioD to the staging area construction activities, site preparation will
also include mobilization of safety equipment, saapling supplies, breathing
air delivery equipment, and a personnel decontamination trailer. No addition-
al road improvement is anticipated, however, ailty aand will be stockpiled
near the two excavation areas. This material will be used as cover for the.
completed test pits, in approximately one foot layer of this material will be
used to prevent windblown dispersion of contaminated materials excavated, and
to prevent the possibility of contact with contaminated soils by personnel and
vehicular traffic after completion of this task.
Teat Pitting. As mentioned previously, six. individual test pit excavations
will be conducted in each of the two study areas. The approximate locations
of these test pits are shown in Figures 2-12 and 2-13. Final locations of
these test pits will be determined in the field by DKR and Jordan based upon
field conditions, observations made during previous test pit activities, and
metal detector screening.
The work will be conducted in the following manner, unless site condition*
warrant otherwise:
\o The backboe operator, equipped with aa independent air bottle and
emergency supply will remain la the machine at all ti«ea.

The backhoe's work will be directed by the senior Jordan member of
the (two person) excavation crew by Beans of hand signals that will
be established prior to beginning work. These signals will be
familiar to all members of the crew. This individual will also
maintain a graphic log of the test pit as it is-excavated.
The second member of the crew, will Bonitor air quality, and trans-
far supplies (e.g. film, paper, etc.) to the decontamination sta-
tion.
Tbe decontamination station will be Banned by three individuals.
Two individuals will be fully suited at Level B-ready at all times,
one ready to assist the working crew, and one ready to assist the
sampling crew (discussed below) should the need arise. Tbe third
individual will be at modified Level D assisting with, decontamina-
tion, communications, and transfer-of samples. This station will be
located so as to allow a clear view of the test pit and .staging
areas, as well as be upwind of these activities.
During periods when the backhoe is operating, only the Individual
directing the work will be allowed to approach the excavation. This
Individual will be stationed at a location where he and the operator
are in visual contact and both can observe the excavation. Should
either the backhoe operator or director observe possible buried
druBs, work will pause and a second' backhoe,. equipped with drus
70pec
7
grappling equipment, will bt summoned and moved into position. The
director will then coordinate the efforts of the two operators in
order to remove the drua from the excavation, and aove it to an area
where it can be placed in a recovery drum.
o The two person crew at the excavation, including the director, will
be on airline. All other personnel involved will be on SCSI. All •
personnel assigned.to the work will be thoroughly trained at the
appropriate safety levels, first aid, and emergency response.
'o Test pitting will be initiated in an area free of buried metal and
extended gradually inwards^to the anomaly.
In Area 4, test pits furthest from the staging area will be conduct-«ved first to minimize the potential.tor tracking disturbed soil /
around the area during subsequent excavating activities. In Area 1,
the three test pits located against the southern face of the area
will be excavated first, as it is anticipated these areas will be
relatively free of contamination.
o Spoils removed from the test pit will be stockpiled adjacent the
excavation on a tarp to minimize contact with the ground. At the
completion of each test pit, all spoils and the tarp will be re-
turned to the excavation, and all disturbed soil will be covered by
at least one foot of silty soil imported from off-site.
71
Because of the tine required -for drum handling, overpacfcing,
Ing, and sampling, it is expected that each test pit will require
two days to complete.
o The bucket of the excavating backhoe will be decontaminated with TSP
solution and high pressure water wash upon completion of each testiyt
• pit. All equipment will be thoroughly decontaminated with TSP and*. .*• -.
high pressure water wash at the ooapletlon of each of the two area
investigations. Decontamination w£Ll be conducted over plastic, i •, ,«
tarps, and all wash water and debris removed duclng decontamination-
will be collected, drummed, sampled, and stored la the appropriate
drum staging area. """""ft
Drum Staging and Sampling. Due to the potential hazards posed by the materi-
als which might be contained in the excavated drums, each lataot drum will be
remotely opened by the operator of the second oackboe which will be equipped
with a drum puncturing device (in addition to the drum grappling equipment).
The efforts of this operator will be directed by the senior member of a two
person staging/sampling crew. The duties of this orev trill be to assist la
the overpaying of the excavated drums (including photographing and docvnent-
ing any Barkings observed), obtaining sufficient sample (la the appropriate
containers) for the necessary field screening and laboratory analyses, label-
ing the drums, and installing the tops on the overpaok drums. Due to poten-
tial incompatibilities, only one liquid containing drum will be open at any
one time.
72WC
Samples will be obtained utilizing a glass dip-tube (for liquids), or a
stainless steel dip-tube (for solids or sludges) which will be abandoned intr.
the drum. To avoid the need for resampling drums, a sufficient amount of
sample will be obtained from eaoh drum to aoocnmodate on-site field
(compatibility) testing, as well as outside laboratory analysis. Samples will
be placed directly into the appropriate sample contalner(s), .the" drum (or
overpak, if appropriate) Identification number will be recorded eg the sample
containers, the drum will be sealed, and the sample portion destined for field*
compatibility testing will be transported directly to the field lab.
The two person staging/sampling crew will be on air line. The outsides of all
sample containers will be thoroughly decontaminated with TSP and distilled
water rinse to prevent possible exposure to sample handling and packaging
personnel.
/Based upon visual observation and field screening results, 150 drummed waste
samples will be submitted to CLP for organic and inorganic analysis, plus
dioxin analysis, and 150 samples will be submitted to Clayton Environmental
Consultants for EP tozloity testing for metals and organics, plus PCBs. ill
samples will be packaged and shipped aa medium hazard samples which will
involve packaging sample containers in vermioulite-filled paint cans inside a
vermloulite-fllled cooler. EPA CLP procedures will be followed for all
samples shipped off-site for analysis.
73»8C
Compatibility Testing. In order to properly stage the drums, and to ensure
safe handling during transport and disposal of these materials off-site,
on-site compatibility testing of the drum contents will be conducted in a
properly equipped sampling van by a chemist, supplied by Great Lakes Environ-
mental.
This testing (for staging purposes) will consist of the following:
radioactivity
flammability*•
PH
flame teat
aulfidea
water reactivity
oxidation potential
total organic vapor
cyanide content
A discussion of the teat procedures Involved is included in Appendix B.
Maate Disposal. Wastes generated during this program, including Tyvelc suits,
gloves, decontamination water (personnel and equipment)', etc.., will be col-
lected, drummed, and placed In the drum staging area closest to their point of
generation. These drums will'be labeled, and, as with the overpaoked drums
collected during this program, tbelr ultimate disposal will be the responsi-
bility of the DHH. The staging area will be left intact, and its ultimate
9vC
disposal will also be the responsibility of the DKR. tests of any additional
testing or analyses required by transporters or disposal facilities selected A
by the DHR are not included in this workplan.
Task 1H; Boring'and Monitoring Veil Installation
Previous Investigation. There are currently a total of 19 monitoclng wells at
the Metamora Landfill site (excluding two wells whioh have been irreparably
damaged or are otherwise unusable for sampling). Six of these wells were
installed between 1978 and 1981. Two of these six wells are 4-lnohes in
diameter with multiple screened intervals, ill remaining wells are 2-lnohes
in diameter with single screens. Thirteen of the monitoring wells were
installed in 1985 during the Site Investigation (SI) conducted by Jordan for
DKR.
During the SI recently conducted at the Metamora Landfill site, very difficult
drilling conditions were encountered. The borings and monitoring wells
installed at the site were designed to investigate the geological characteris-
tics of the site, as well as the local groundwater chemistry. However,
attempts to satisfy both;objectives by drilling with the hollow-stem auger aad
casing advancer techniques were generally unsuccessful. While cud rotary
methods were used to drill to depths of approximately 120 feet with good
results, this drilling technique1'Is not the method of choice for the Instal-
lation of groundwater quality monitoring wells.
75DOC

/grout*Because of the potential effects of drilling' mud on the chemistry of groundwa-
ter samples, tbe monitoring wells were ooopleted ,below»the water table using •

during tbe SI. Tbe subsurface geology of the saturated zone extending to tbe
top of rock in tbe study area is st'lll largely unknown. This- information is..- '
critical to an understanding of th« hydrogtology in the atudy area.

Two different approaches have been developed for drilling and veil installa-
tion activities at the Metamora Landfill site.' The first method .involves a
combination of casing hammer and air rotary drilling, and the'second method
involves a combination*of mud rotary and cable tool drilling techniques. The
first approach, casing hammer/rotary, will be used initially at the alte. If
this method proves'inadequate, the mud rotary/cable tool approach will be
used. Both methodologies are discussed in the sections below.
» ,
All rotary drilling and casing hammer work will be done by John Ha the* and
Associates, Inc., with an Inger*oil Rand TH-o'0*drlilingSVig. The cable tool-^^ ' lsubcontractors and the types of cable tool rigs to be used (if necessary) have
not yet been selected.
XDuring drilling, split-spoon samples will be collected in the saturated and
'unsaturated tones to characterise the local stratigraphy. A portable OC will
be used to analyse the headapaoe of containerized, saturated soil samples from
the shallow and intermediate soil borings to provide preliminary information „
concerning the relative vertical distribution of volatile organic^contaminants

in the sand and gravel aquifer at each location.
The geology and the results of the CC analyses of the saturated soil samples
will be used to determine the depth of the well screens for the intermediate
wells. The shallow wells will be screened at the water table. For budgeting
purposes, the shallow and intermediate wells have been estimated at an average»•
depth of 150 feet. The bedrock wells will be placed 40 feet into bedrock
(about 320 feet).
After installation, the monitoring wells will be surveyed under the direction
of Jordan tp determine their locations relative to the grid system, and the
top-of-casing elevations will be measured relative to the.existing vertical
control.

tation of the geophysical data.
An outline of the proposed drilling methods and sampling techniques are
described below. If'unforeseen drilling difficulties develop due to the site
geology, the actual methods used may differ from those discussed.
Drilling Methods for Bedrock Borings - Approach 11. A schematic Illustration
of the boring completion is shown on Figure 2-15. For approach 01, the
bedrock borings will be completed using a combination of casing hammer and
rotary drilling methods.
Each boring will begin by drilling'with a 7-7/6 Inch trloone bit and hammering
8-inch steel casing to a depth of 5 feet Into the clay layer, it this point,
the casing will be withdrawn about 3 feet, the drilling tools will be removed,
and the bole will be filled with a known quantity of bentonlte slurry to 1 or
2 feet above the clay/sand interface. It Is anticipated that all slurries or
grouts will be placed with a tremmle tube. The 8-inch easing will then be
pushed back into the bole and allowed to set. After the bentonlte slurry has
set (overnight or about 12 hours), 6-lnoh steel casing will be lowered Into
the 8-lnob borehole to the top of 'the bentonlte slurry plug. The steel casing
will be driven through the bentonlte slurry plug and Into the underlying olay
80MC
to a suitable depth (next sampling interval) or refusal. A 5-7/6 inch trloone
bit.vill be lowered inside the 6-inch easing until contact with the bentonite
slurry plug or clay, and drilling will continue to the top of bedrock. At
this point, the boring will, be advanoed about 5 feet into the bedrock, the
drilling tools will be removed, and a 6-inch under-reamer will be lowered into
the borehole.' The bedrock will be reaaed to open the hple to an 8-lnoh
diameter. After the under-reamer is withdrawn, a known quantity of oe-
aent/bentonlte grout will be pumped into the hole to • level 5 f*«t above the
clay/bedrock Interface. At this time, additional grout will also be pumped
down between the 8-inch and the 6-inch casing from above the bentonite slurry
to the ground surface. The 6-inch casing will then be pushed down into the4
reamed, grouted hole and allowed to set.
Af te r the grout baa set (overnight or about 12 hours), the 5-7/8 inch drilling
tools will again be lowered down Into the bole to the top of the grout plug,
and the boring will be advanoed into the bedrock to the desired depth. It is
anticipated that the borings will terminate about 40 feet below the top of
bedrock.
Drilling Methods for Bedrock Boring - Approach t2. Figure 2-15 «l»o shows ax
completed borehole using method 42. Method #2 utilizes a combination of mud
rotary drilling with cable tool to complete the boles. Bedrock borings
installed by-this method will be placed downgradient and a minimum of 100 feet
from existing or proposed shallow monitoring wells to prevent bentonite •
drilling mud -from interfering with the shallow monitoringft'*
82MC
Deep Soil Borings. A total of tbr«« deep •oil borings are proposed aa part of
th« boring and monitoring well installation program. These borings will b«
drilled after the .bedrock borings and tbe shallow to intermediate soil borings
are completed. Tbe purpose of these deep soil borings is to fill In data gaps
concerning the stratigraphy extending from the water table to the top of the
bedrock. Ezaot locations and depths of these borings will be deterained based
on the results of the initial drilling. The actual number of borings, and the• »
drilling methods used to complete these borings, will'depend on the remaining
funds and data needs at the final phase of the boring program.
Drilling Methods for Deep Soil Borings. These borings may be completed by
either casing hammer/rotary methods (approach *1) or mud rotary/cable tool
(approach #2) . If budget allows, monitoring wells may be installed in these •4
borings by the methods outlined in prerious sections. Open-hole mud rotary
drilling methods are another option that could be used to advance these
borings to the desired ,depth. All deep soil borings will be abandoned by
filling with a thick bentonit- rlurry.
Split-Spoon Sampling. As indicated in Figures. 2-15 and 2-17• soil samples
will be collected from each borehole (in the saturated zone) In split-spoons
at 20-foot intervals (or with any change in strata). In the unsaturated
zone, samples will be collected at changes in strata only. It la assumed that>
up to three samples will be collected from each borehole in tbe unsaturatedi
zone. Soil samples will be Tisually described and field-screened with a PI
meter for the presence of detectable organic compounds. In the event that tbe*
screening Indicates a significant reading above background, a soil" sample will
KJO
For both shallow and intermediate wells,-a stainless steal centrallzer will be
fastened to the well screen to oentralizf It in the borehole. The annular
space around the screened section of the wall will be'backfilled, with coarse, .
graded sand to approximately 2 feet above the screen. For the shallow wallsa
installed Inside the 6-inch casing, a 2-foot bentonite pellet seal will be
placed above the sand pack, followed by another"2 feet of sand to help keep
the pellets down while the casing is.removed. .A bentoni.te/oemenfr grout will',
be placed rtove the sand to within 4 feat of the ground surface. For the
shallow wells installed inside the 4-inoh casing, and the intermediate, wells,
a bentonite slurry will be placed above the/sand pSStt, followed by oe-
ment/bentonlte grout to within 4 feet of the'ground surface; ' The upper 4 feet
of annular space for all walls will be filled with concrete. Aa attempt will
"*' • -be made to verify all depths to sand pack and seals by measurement.
Well installation will be completed by either the placement of.a'4-inoh,
locking, veil protector over the 2-inch riser pipe, or by welding a hinged lid
tc the outer 6-inch casing. The well protectors will be set .'" ..h* surface'• • » ' '
uoncrete. The well protectors/hinged lids will be fitted wlti- padlock to
prevent unauthorized access to the wall. The- 2-rinch rljer pipe will also-be
fitted with a removable, PTC reducer and vented plug to further ensure the
Integrity of the monitoring Well against tampering or the introduction of•<,?v--• i v -•. • "
foreign materials into the well. Iycorrosion resistant metal identification
tag will be provided for each wall and attached to the protective oaalng lid»

th« borehole. Recirculation of drilling water will got be permitted in these
borings, Onoe the desired completion depth has been reached, the well will be
installed and the 4-inch casing will be removed.
Shallow to Intermediate Monitoring Well Installations. A schematic illustra-
tion of the shallow and intermediate well installations are'shown on Figures
2-16 and 2-19. respectively. The wells will consist of 2-inoh diameter,
flush-threaded, 10-slot, galvanized steel riser pipe with a 5- or 15,-foot
long, 2-inch diameter, flush-threaded, stainless steel screens.
Fifteen-foot screens are proposed for the shallow wells, and 5-foot screens
are proposed for the intermediate wells. The shallow well screens will be
placed so that they straddle the water table. The reason for this approach is
as follows. During the recent SI, the highest levels of contamination ap-
peared to be present at the water table surface. This is consistent with the
fact that most of the prevalent volatile compounds found in grouodwater were
Hghter-than-water solvents such as toluene and ethyl benzene. Because the
highest concentrations of organic contaminants are expected to be found at the
water table surface, it is proposed that the screens be placed at that depth.
To account for groundwater level fluctuations, the screens are recommended to
be 15 feet long.
The wells will be installed through the 6- or 4-inoh casing, depending on the
drilling approach used. The casing will be removed as the well la construct-
ed. If approach 42 is used, the outer 6-inoh casing will remain in place.

fitted with a removable, PVC reducer aad vented plug to further ensure the
integrity of the monitoring well against tampering or the Introduction of
foreign materials into the well. A corrosion resistant metal identification
tag will be provided for each well and fastened to the inside of the hinged
cover.
Due to the extreme depths and potential difficulties associated with these
bedrock well installations, it la recommended that at least one bedrock well
be completely installed before the other three bedrock borings are started to
verify the proposed methods and veil design. In this way, any necessary
modifications can be implemented, before all the bedrock borings have been
completed.
Shallow and Intermediate Soil Borings. 1 total of eight borings extending to
shallow or intermediate depths with monitoring well installations are proposed
aa part of the RI. The purpose of these borings and monitoring wells are to:
o provide additional data on groundvater elevations and vertical
gradients in the site area;
o provide additional information on the chemical groundwater quality
in the surficial aquifer; and

stainless steel centrallzer will be attached to tbe bottom of tbe well screen'
so that it is centralized within tbe borehole. Toe screen will be backfilled
with a known volume of coarse, graded sand to 5 feet above tbe top of the well
screen , and a bentonlte slurry seal, about 5 faet thick, will be installed on
top of the sand pack. Above that, oement/bentonite grout will be placed to

will be conducted with a PI meter during drilling, well installation and well
development activities, in exploaimeter will be used to BOnitor for the
presence of methane gas during drillings and well installation, especially
since considerable welding will be done d\ring these activities.. * *
Well Development, ill monitoring wells installed as part of this program will
be developed to remove fine soil materials that could plug the-well screen.' V

it on-site work locations, uncontamlnated waste materials temporarily stored
in containers will be released at the location from which they were derived,
provided that such a release does not create a nuisance, safety hazard, or
cause significant harm to the environment. In off-site work locations,
containers holding uncontaminated soil or aud will be transported on-site»
before being released. Water at off-ait* locations that is uncontaminated
will be released at that location, provided that this act doas not create t
nuisance, safety hazard, or causa, significant harm to tha environment.
ill materials that are'"suspected of being contaminated will be labeled and
placed in a temporary storage area. During drilling, the headspace analyses
done on saturated soil samples will indicate if the soils and grouodwater from<i
that boring are likely to be contaminated. If no contamination is detected in
the headapace analyses, the materials will be considered clean and they will
b« disposed of 'in the manner outlined above. If contamination is detected by
the headapace analysis, each container associated with that borehole will be
sampled and screened for contamination with-the field GC. Composite sampling
may be used.
For any other activities such as well development or groundwater sampling, or
ror cases where headapace analv: « on saturated soil samples .ri r^t done •

Task 15: Honltorinjt Veil
Tbe 19 existing monitoring wells at tbe Hetamora Landlfll will be sampled In
tbe spring of 1986 before the 11 proposed monitoring wells have been in-
stalled. After the completion of Task U (well installation), all 30 wells
will be sampled twice during tbe PI. Tbe first sampling episode will be
completed approximately two weeks after the new monitoring wells are In-
stalled. Tbe second episode will be approximately two weeks later. The
sampling and analysis of groundwater from the existing monitoring wells and
new monitoring wells during the same -sampling episodes will provide a compre-
hensive data base reflecting water quality conditions at a aingle point in
time.
is part of the sampling methodology, the well will first be checked for proper
identification and location. A PI meter and an exploslmater will be used to
measure tbe ambient air quality at each well site location. After removing
the well cap, the ambient and well-mouth vapor levels will also be measured
and recorded.
Prior to well evacuation, the static water'level and tbe well depth will be
measured (from top of casing) with an electric water level indicator. Mea-
surements will be taken and recorded to the nearest 0.01 foot. Baaed on the v;
height of water standing in the well and the ZD of the casing, the volume of
standing water will be calculated. Tbe wells will be purged of three times
the volume of standing water (or until the well goes dry) before sampling. If
packers are used, tbe evacuated volume will be three times the volume of water
All sample bottles will be provided by the CLP. The samples vill be analyzed
.for the complete organic and Inorganic analysis packages through the CLP.
Sample labeling, handling, and shipping methods established by the CLP will be
followed.t
Decontamination of the pump between samples will be accomplished by puaping a
solution of TSP and water through the pump, followed by distilled water. This
will be done by submerging the punp in a bucket or a deoon tube (a 3 to 4 inch
diameter, 4-foot long, PVC tube sealed at one end). The outside of the pump
and the tubing will be rinsed with TSP and water, and then rinsed with dis-
tilled water. Any instrument or equipment that comes in contact with ground-
water will be rinsed with distilled water between wells. This includes the
electric water level indicator, the Tripar probe, etc.
Task 16: Surface Water/Sediment Sampling
The sampling and analysis of surface water and associated sediments will allow
a determination to be made of the extent of site-derived contamination in
surface runoff and nearby surface water receptors. This "data will be used in
assessing public health and environmental impacts or risks, and in evaluating
remedial alternatives. To accomplish this task, six surface water samples, six
sediment samples, and six leachate samples will be collected. The sampling
locations are shown on Figure 2-20. These sampling location* are baaed on
runoff directions and ponded water locations observed during the SI. The
leachate sampling locations were selected in an attempt to aample aa many
99•Ufl
below the packer. Purged water froa all wells will be collected, tod it will
b« screened and bandied as described in Task 11.
Purging will be done with a lack MOhanioal puop, an IS CO bladder pump, a QED
bladder pimp or a bailer. If well-bead vapor levels are greater than back-
ground, PI readings will be taken during evacuation. The temperature, pH and
specific conductance will be measured and recorded three tiaes during well
evacuation (at the start, after pumping approxinettly 1 1/2 wall volumes, and
Just before sampling) with a Tripar Analyzer.
t* *
If the Keck or the QED pump is used for purging, the groundwater samples will
be collected directly from the Teflon tubing. Because the 1SCO pump has a
ailicone rubber bladder and is not appropriate for obtaining saaplas to be.
analyzed for orgaolcs, all volatile and semi-volatile organic analysis samples
will b« taken with a stainless steel, 1000 ml bailer.
Samples to be tested for dissolved metals will be pressure filtered under
n i t i i gen In a Geoteoh 2.9 liter barrel filter using .45-alcron membrane
filter. Between samples, the filter assembly will be rinsed with a dilute
acid solution followed by distilled water. The membrane filter will be
replaced between samples. Jordan's lab will provide preservatives (KaOH and
HN03) for preservation of cyanide and dissolved metals samples. Two ml (or an
amount necessary to achieve the desired pE) of the appropriate preservative-
will be used for each sample.

different seeps as possible. Preoiae sampling locations will be established
prior to the tine of sampling after consultation with DHH.
Except for location 16, it may not be possible to obtain water samples (or
coaplete water sanples) from all locations. The existanoe of standing water
or the amount of leaebate being generated at a particular time will depend on
the weather conditions. Every attempt will be made to collect these samples
during the spring (wet season), but the scheduling of samples with the CLP
will ultimately* be the determining factor.
• . •
The specific methodology used to obtain surface water samples will be deter-
mined in the field based on the specific conditions encountered. Water
samples in areas of shallow standing water (about 1 to 2 feet deep) will be
collected by submerging the sample bottles, or by using a glass beaker. If
the water depth is greater than 2'feet, a dip tube will'be used to collect a
sample from the entire water column. These samples will be collected at the
edge of the waller, if possible; otherwise, it may be necessary to wade to the
sampling location, or a anall aluminia boat will be used to reach the desired
location. Water samples will be filtered, presenred and tested (pH, tempera-
ture and conductivity) by the same methods described In Taak 15*
A sediment sample will be collected at each of the surface water sampling
locations described above. The procedures for sediment sampling will also be
dictated by specific site conditions. If water levels are high, a VUdoo E.B.^
oone sampler will be used; otherwise, sediment sample* will be taken with a
101MXJ
stainless steel trowel. The goal will be to collect a saaple of the tipper 6
to 12 inches of sediment.
Six leacbate samples (or leachate-contaminated soil samples) will also be •
collected during this task from the seeps emanating from the landfilled area.
These samples will b« collected from the surface with a clean, glass beaker or
a stainless steel trowel.
Decontamination of all sampling equipment will consist of a TSP and water wash
followed by a distilled water rinse. The sample bottle surfaces will also be
decontaminated. If an aluminia boat is used, it will be steaa cleaned.
All sample bottles and jars will be provided by the CLP. All samples, both
water and soil, will be analyzed for the full inorganic and organic analysis
packages through the CLP. For samples where a complete aet of water bottles •
cannot be filled, the analysis will consist of only volatile organics.
Samples will b« handled, labeled and shipped In accordance with CLP proce-
dures.
Task 17: Aquifer Testing
Aquifer testing will b« conducted to determine the hydraulic characteristics
X.of the aquifers underlying the Metamora Landfill site. Falling bead, constant
head, and/or rising bead testa (piezometer tests) will b« performed on select-
ed monitoring wells to determine the range of permeabilities of soils and
bedrock at the screened interval. Laboratory tests will also be performed to
102
augment the field ttata. i pump teat will also be conducted uaing the on-alte
well currently utilized for the gravel operation. The purpoae of this teat
will be to provide information for deaignlng a groundwater pure* ayatea if
ouch a system la deemed necessary for the Metamora Landfill aite.
/
Piezometer Teata. It la proposed that two bedrock wella and ten walla located
in the sand amd gravel aquifer be taated for In altu permeability. The wella
to be tested will ultimately be aeleoted on the baala of the finding* of the
subsurface investigation (monitoring wall installation). Valla will be
s-elected so that a vide range of geologic materials are represented In the
screened interval.
Piezometer tests are often conducted by adding a slug of water (of known
volume) to a well and then measuring the change in water level aa the alug
dissipates into the aquifer. At the Hetamora Landfill site, this method is
virtually impossible because of the depth to the water table. It la extremely
difficult to add a slug of water to the aquifer instantaneously whan the water
table ia deep because the water tends to collect on the aidea of the well
casing. Also, the geologic materials at the site are fairly permeable and
water levels tend to equilibrate quickly. This method was attempted during
the SI and it proved to be quite inadequate.
Because of these conditions, a rising head method using a pressure transducer
is recommended as the test method for this alte. A similar method la de-
scribed in detail by D. V. Proaaer (Groundwater, Vol. 19. Xo. 6, lov-Deo 1981,
pp. 588.592). To perform this teat, the vail will be aealed at the top with a
103K>0
manifold system, and tbe tranaduoer will be submerged to about 10 feet below
the groundwater ourface. Water level measurements will be measured by the»
tranaduoer and recorded at tba surface on a strip chart. After tha transducer
ia submerged, tba geologist performing tba teat will wait for .tba standing
water In the wall to COM to equilibrium. iftar equilibrium ia attained, tha
water column will be depressed with nitrogen under low pressure (about 5 pal).
ifter the water column baa again come to equilibrium, tbe well will be instan-
taneously depressurized. Tbe wall recovery will be continuously'recorded on
tbe a t r ip chart. Tbe method of analysis used will be that described by
Hvorslev ( 1 9 5 1 ) .
This method was used during tbe SI when piezometer testa were conducted at
wells 10D, 12, 15D and 16. All permeability values, except for MV-10D, were
found to be similar to the values expected based on visual examination of tbe
soils believed to be^at the screened interval. Tbe test at MH-1CD gave a
permeability value believed to be too fasf for tbe aoila at that location. It
ia possible that the soil sample for that well screen depth was not represen-
tative of tbe actual soil type at that interval. Also,- after a review of tbe
test procedures, it appears that a poor manifold seal in that well may have
been the reason for tbe anomalously high permeability value. A good seal was
difficult to maintain because of a small opening in the aide of the well
casing. To resolve this problem, walla installed during the next phase will
be vented by putting a amall opening in tbe well cap, not the casing. *
Laboratory Permeability Teatin*. During tbe next monitoring well installation
phase, the depth of the shallow on intermediate well screens will be

tional engineering elements associated with conceptual designs, as well as/is
other data necessary to prepare a budget level cost estimate and to providev
adequate information to enable subsequent'activities to be initiated. Tbe*
conceptual design will include tbe following:

Task 29.0 Final Feasibility Study Report
iA final Feasibility Study report will be prepared at the completion of the'

determined by GC analyais of aoil samples in tbe saturated zone (i.e., screens
will be placed where contamination appears to be the'highest). It is unlike-
ly that a well will be installed in every aoil type known to exist •mt the
site, therefore, conducting permeability testa on piezometers alone will not
provide information on the full range of aoil permeabilities at tbe site. To
fill this data gap, it ia proposed that aix aoil samples of varioua aoil types
(not represented at welL screen locationa) be tested in the. laboratory for
permeability. This data, in conjunction with in aitu permeability data tad
static water level data, will provide tbe basis for calculating groundwater
flow rates and designing the pvnp test.
PUBP Test. At DNR's request,- a pump test Is proposed to provide information
on the hydraulic characteristics of tbe sand and gravel aquifer. Tbe cinslte*
well currently used for tbe mining operations at tbe site will act as tbe
pumping well. Tbe actual deaign of tbe pump teat will be based on the resultsx ' • j.
of tbe piezometer tests and information obtained during Task 14 (Monitoring
Well Installation). Dr. Villard A. Murray, hydrogeologlat, will deaign the
punp teats and be responsible for data analysis.
Tbe detailed deaign of this pump test and ita importance to this project will
have to be determined after tbe new monitoring wells are installed. Addition-
al data such as In situ permeability values, static water levala, groundwater
Chemistry, a well log for tbe puaping well, and Ipiformation on the pump that• • *La installed in that well, are needed before a detailed pump teat can be
designed. Some major questions will have to be addressed auofa as collection
and dlspoaal of the estimated 520,000 (or more) gallona of pumped wmter, and
the possibility of contaminating currently uncontaminated , upgradient wells by
pulling the plume towards the pimping well. Also, 'the configuration' of -the t
water table surface (a mound) may cauae contaminants pulled toward (be pumpingv -J
well. to flow to the weat or even the south. That is, contaminants may be
pulled over the water table divide. ^ ' • • . - -
The goal of this teat will be to get field data 'that will allow study of tbe* +
time-drawdown relationship and the distance-drawdown relationship during the
period of pimping, and during the period of recovery. .
The length of the pump test will be at least 72 hours sinoe it's purpose ia to
assess the response of the aquifer over an extended period of time, i pumping
rate of 120 to 250 gpm is proposed, although tbe capability of the existing
pimp is not known. It is assumed that all wells will be monitored- during the
pump test. This includes measuring static water levels prior to tbe start of
tbe test, plus static water levels at various intervals during the pumping
period. It will also be advantageous to measure static water levels in the
monitoring wells after tbe pump baa' stopped so that tbe water level recovery
can be studied. Other measurements include the pump starting time, ftbe time
of any change in discharge rate, and tbe time tbe pump is stopped.* Tbe -% •
pumping rate and the discharge will be periodically monitored with a flow
meter throughout the duration of the teat.
The budget for this task provides adequate time. for development of this teet,
plus an estimate of tbe cost for running a teat of this magnitude, and time
necessary to analyze the data. Jordan anticipates that three personnel will
106
r
be necessary for the entire\72 hour period to adequately run Ube pump test.*r ' '•* ~>
The estimate does not provide for collection and disposal of the pumped water.
DNR will be responsible for -obtaining permission'from the property owner to
u'se the well for this teat. * .. '. ' .
Task 18: Analytical Program
\The proposed analytical program to be conducted in conjunction with the
Metaaora Landfill site RI la described in Table 2-1. InaTjyses will be per-
formed by the CLP or a qualified, local laboratory. Jordan will handle all
CLP samples In accordance with CLP procedures. Jordan wll provide labeling',« .
packaging, and shipping for all samples, in addition to completing all the
required paperwork (traffic reports, chain of custody, sample.tracking, etc.)*
It is anticipated that all samples will be low hazard, with, the exception of .
waste samples collected during the Pollutant Characterization task (Task 13).
DNR will establish lab space, and Jordan will coordinated sample shipments *
vlthjthe SMO.

Samples will be analyzed for the standard organic and inorganic analysis
packages per the CLP. Some soil samples, particularly in the area where
opened bur Ing occurred, may be analyzed for dloxin, a special analytical
service.
.Validation of data from CLP laboratories and any other laboratory used by DHR
for this project will be done under the direction,,of Bruoe X. Wallin, Ph.D.,
Technical Director of Jordan's analytical laboratory. This validation will be

conducted in accordance with tbe procedures prescribed by O.S. EPA. Back-
ground data to be provided by U.S. EPA will include: 1) copies of CLP IFB No.
VA-84 A266 and IFB No. VA-84 A267; and 2) a oopy of "State Agency Access to
tbe Contract Laboratory Program," EPA, January 1984. Based on Jordan's recent
experience using tbe most current guidance froa O.S. EPA and DNR, 60 hours of
Dr. Wallin's time and 400 hours of a staff scientist have been included for
tbe data validation activity.
Task 19: Data Interpretation
Baaed on data developed during Tasks 9 through 18, tbe Hetamora Landfill site
will'be characterized'and tbe extent of contamination will be determined. In
addition, a contaminant exposure assessment will be conducted to assess the *
risks posed by the site and to assist in the establishment of response objec-
tives. A key element of this task is the development of an appropriate analog
of tbe aite. Tbe analog may range from a simple mathematical equation to a
comprehensive computer based groundwater flow/solute transport model. For
purposes of this work plan a simple analog has been assumed. If more extenj
aive groundwater modeling is necessary, DNR will be advised and a work pli
prepared as indicated under Task 24.
Tbe evaluation of the site will include:
o understanding of tbe geology of tbe site and surrounding area;
o identification of to* horizontal and vertical distribution of oontami-V
nanta in groundwater and soils;
o determination of the direction of surface water and groundwater flow in
the site vicinity to establish pathways for potential contamination
migration;
o evaluation of the potential impact on deeper aquifers in the area;
o evaluation of the probable fate of the contaminant plume; and
o evaluation of the potential impacts of contaminants on public health, and
floral and faunal populations surrounding the site.
tThe results of the RI will be analyzed vith respect to the potential remedial
technologies and alternatives identified in Task 5.0. The evaluation will
aas«sa: 1) if the data are adequate to conduct the FS; 2) if the list of
potential remedial alternatives should be modified; and 3) the need for
additional data to conduct the Feasibility Study.
Task 20: RI Report
The findings of the RI will be summarized in a written report Incorporating
illustrations, drawings and diagrams. The report will be comprehensive and
will be written in a style that can be understood by a lay audience as well as
the professional. It will serve'«yi a public document and as a technical
report that provides a basis for the Feasibility Study. Illustration* will be
used to portray technical information in a clear and meaningful manner. Field
and laboratory data will be compiled in appendices.
The report of the RI will be delivered in draft form to allow DNR and U.S. EPA
to have input into the report prior to release of a final report. Report
preparation will commence with a detailed report outline-, the contents of
which will be coordinated with the DNR prior to report preparation. The
report format will be patterned after EPA guidance provided la the document
entitled "Guidance on Remedial Investigations Under CERCLA," U.S.EPA,
May 1965.
Jordan suggests that all written comments be submitted through DNR for consid-
eration, discussion and inclusion in the final report as appropriate.
2.3 FEASIBILITY STUDT (PHASE
Tbe objective of tbe Feasibility Study (FS) is to develop and evaluate remedi-
al alternatives, recommend an appropriate oost-effective remedial alternative
and prepare a conceptual design for tbe alternative selected. The following
information describes 9 tasks to be completed as part of the FS.
Task 21.0 Description of Current Situation and Sopping Update
Prior to initiating work on the FS, tbe FS work plan will be reviewed la light
of tbe results of tbe RI, Based on this review, the need for any changes in
tbe FS work plan will be determined. If it is found that tbe work plan should
be modified, tbe recommended changes will be submitted to DNR for review and
approval.
Task 22.0 Development of Alternatives
•-^Based on tbe understanding of the site obtained during tbe remedial investiga-
tion, a limited number of applicable remedial alternatives for the Metamora
Landfill site, including tbe no-action alternative, will be developed. The
development of the alternatives will involve several steps which are described
below.
a. Establish Remedial Response Objectives. The first step in developing
remedial alternatives for an uncontrolled hazardous waste site is the estab-
lishment of the response objectives or cleanup goals. The response objectives *
of the proposed remedial action will be established in accordance with the
guidance provided by the DNR, USEPA guidance and compliance policies, aad tbe
requirements of any other applicable federal or state regulation, guidance or
policy. Tbe response objective will provide a benchmark by which to evaluate'
the effectiveness of remedial alternatives. Tbe recommendation of a eost-
effecWve remedial alternative will be based on tbe extent to which tbe alter-
native meets the response objectives along with consideration of cost, techno-
logy, and reliability.
Recommendations for response objectives for tbe remedial action at tbt
Metaaora Landfill site will be developed in close consultation with DHR and
OSEPA. t '
*b. Identification of Remedial Technologies. . An early task in the PS is to
identify potentially applicable remedial technologies which can then be inoor*
porated into more comprehensive site remedial alternatives. Potential remedi-
al technologies are normally divided into two broad categories: 1) management
of migration or 2) source control measures.
o Management of Migration - Actions that are taken to minimize and mitigate
the migration of hazardous substances or pollutants aad tbe effects of
that migration. Management of migration actions may be appropriate where
the hazardous substances or pollutants have moved away from their origi-
nal location or where a source cannot be adequately Identified or charac-
terized. Measures may include but are not limited to provision of
alternative water supplies, management of a contaminant plume or treat-
ment of a drinking water aquifer.
o Source Control Measures - Remedial actions Intended to contain the
hazardous substances or pollutants where they are located or to ellflgLnate**
potential contamination by transporting the hazardous materials to a new
location. Source control remedial actions-may be appropriate if 1)
hazardous substances remain at or near the area where they were original-
ly located, and 2} adequate natural barriers to migration are not
present.
Identification of the nature and extent of the buried wastes, contaminant
migration from the existing disposal area, and the associated effect on
ground and surface waters in the area are the primary concerns of the
Metaaora Landfill RI. Development of response objectives and identifica-
tion of remedial technologies will, therefore, center on defining poten-
tially feasible methods for waste removal and management of migration
alternatives. Remedial technologies which appear to be most applicable
for controlling migration from the site include extraction of contaminat-
ed groundwater via pumping and treatment of contaminated groundwater by
biological or physical/chemical methods. Source control measures such as
site capping and construction of run-on and run-off control structures
will also be evaluated.
Based on our review, of the condition* at the site, It appears that a combina-
tion of remedial technologies are applicable to the alt*. Upon completion of
tbe HI, the list of technologies will be refined to Identify those most tppll-
cable to the site conditions and most capable of meeting site response objec-
tives.
c. Identification of Remedial Alternatives. From the remedial technologies
identified in the previous section, Jordan will develop a limited number
site-specific remedial alternatives. In addition to source control and
management of migration alternatives, tbe remedial alternatives identified
will include "no-action".
The development of appropriate remedial alternatives for an uncontrolled
hazardous waste site requires a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of
the physical setting and contaminant sources at tbe site. Tbe National
Contingency Plan (NCP) (300.68 - Remedial Action) identifies procedures to be
followed and criteria for identifying appropriate, site-specific remedial
alternatives. These criteria include acceptable engineering practice, effec-
tiveness and cost.
In identifying the remedial alternatives, Jordan will maintain close coordina-
tion with DNR. The Identified remedial alternatives will be reviewed with DNR
and USE?A prior to proceeding with the screening phase. Once DNR and DSEPi
have concurred with the potential remedial alternatives identified for the
site, Jordan will proceed with the initial screening task.
Task 23.0 Initial Screening of Alternatives
The objective of initial screening is to reduce the initially identified list
of alternative? by evaluating each alternative in terms of: acceptable engi-
neering practice; effectiveness; envirocBental effects; and cost.
Acceptable engineering practice is the technical feasibility (including oon-
structability, implementation schedule, risk of failure, eto.) of implementing
a given remedial action while effectiveness Is the relative contribution of
the alternative toward achieving the desired degree of mitigation. Factors to
be considered under environmental effects would include future sit* use,
public acceptance and the degree of protection of public health, welfare, and
the environment achieved. For initial screening, capital and operating costs
will be estimated within an accuracy of +1005 to -50$.
On the basis of these criteria, Jordan will screen the alternatives developed
in Task 22 to eliminate, prior to the detailed analysis, alternatives that are
clearly not feasible or appropriate. Dpon completion of the initial screen-
ing, a limited number of remedial alternatives appropriate for the site will
have been identified for further analysis. * •
Task 2*.Q Laboratory Studies (Optional)
-t
In developing and evaluating remedial alternatives for the Metamora Landfill
site, there may be insufficient data available to enable definitive conclu-
sions to be reached concerning the applicability of certain technologies. The
objective of laboratory and bench-scale testability studies ia to develop, if
necessary, additional data for us« in the detailed engineering evaluation of
remedial alternatives.
For those technologies identified a* being appropriate for use, Jordan will
review the adequacy of available ait* data and literature regarding the treat-
ability of the waste substances found at the site. If the available informa-
tion is found to be inadequate to allow evaluation of one or bore specific
technologies, the need for and scope of bench-scale Iab6ratory or pilot-scale
field studies will be presented to and reviewed with DNR. If such studies are
found to be appropriate, a work plan Modification will be submitted to the DNR
documenting the rationale and coat of the proposed study and the potential
effect on the overall schedule of completion for the project. This work plan
does Dot Include any budget for laboratory studies.
If it appears that groundwater modeling is appropriate for .the Hetamora Site
based on the data generated during the HI, Jordan will advise DNR. it that
time Jordan and DNR would meet to review the applicability of modeling and to
select the appropriate model for use. One* a model was selected, Jordan would
prepare a work plan for the review and approval of DNR and OSEP1.
.Task 25.0 Detailed AoalT»i» of Alternatives
Alternative* wniob are found to be acceptable and feasible during initial
screening will b« evaluated in sufficient detail, using a variety of criteria,
to tllow a comparative technical assessment. These evaluations will include
the following:
/
A. Refinement and specification of alternatives in detail, including logis-
tics, equipment, utility and special engineering requirements with empha-
sis on use of established technology;
B. Evaluation in terms of engineering implementation, reliability, oon-
structability, on-site and off*site health and safety considerations, and
regulatory requirements
C. Detailed cost estimation, including operation and maintenance costs and
distribution of costs over time;
\
%
D. Environmental Assessment. The environmental assessment for each alterna-«
live will focus on the site problems and pathways of contamination, if
any, actually addressed by each alternative. The environmental assess-
ment for each alternative will Include an evaluation of beneficial
effects of the response, adverse effects of the response, and an analysis
of measures to mitigate adverse effects. The no-action alternative will .
be evaluated to describe the current site situation and anticipated
environmental conditions if no actions are taken. The no-action alterna-
tive will serve as the baseline for the analysts.
•Public Health Assessment. Each alternative will be assessed In terms of
the extent to which it mitigates long-term exposure to any residual ,
Uf
contamination and protects public health both during and after completion
of the remedial action. Tbe assessment will describe the levels and
characterizations of contaminants, if any, potential exposure routes, and%
potentially affected population. Tbe effect of "njs-eotion" will be
described in terns of tbe short-term effects, long-term exposure to
hazardous substances, and resulting public health impacts. Each remedial
alternative will be evaluated to determine the level of exposure to
contaminants and the reduction over time. For off-site measures, the
relative reduction in impact will be determined by comparing residual •
levels of each alternative with existing criteria, standards, or guide-
lines acceptable to EPi. For source control measures, or when criteria,
standards, or guidelines are not available, the comparison should be made•
based on tbe relative effectiveness of technologies. Tbe no-action
alternative will serve as the baseline for the analysis.
• «E. An analysis of whether recycle/reuse, waste minimization or destruction
or other advanced, innovative or alternative technologies is appropriate
to reliably minimize present or future threats to public health, welfare
or the environment;
» N
F. Ao analysis of adverae environmental impacts, methods for mitigating
these impacts, and costs of mitigation; and
*G. in assessment of the need for laboratory and bench-scale treatabllity
studies to develop, if necessary, additional data for use in the detailed
engineering evaluation of remedial alternatives.
H. Degree of compliance with other environmental programs and methods by •
which that compliance can be achieved.
I. A description of how the alternative can be phased into operable units .or
segmented into areas to allow implementation of differing phases.
A working definition for each of the seven 'Categorical considerations used In
the detailed analysis of remedial alternatives is presented below.
Engineering Constructability. An assessment as to whether or not the technol-
ogy under consideration has actually been built, implemented or constructed
under similar site conditions and by available contractors.
Engineering Reliability. An assessment as to how well the .technology under
consideration performed once constructed, generally evaluated against the
occurrence and extent of repairs and maintenance required under similar site
conditions.
Engineering Implementation. An assessment as to the degree of difficulty/
involved in constructing a technology and the time required to complete con-
struction and the time (design life) to achieve the response objectives
(levels of cleanup). This parameter also Includes institutional barriers to* v. .
implementation such as zoning restrictions and permitting.

ACROLEIN
Introduction
Acroleln 1s used as an Intermediate 1n a number of syntheses Includingglycerol, polyurethane and polyester resins, methlonlne,phanuctutlcals, herbicides and ttar gas. Acroleln occurs naturallythrough atmospheric oxidation of 11nsted oil and Is usually ayellowish liquid with a choking odour.
Inhalation of acroleln vapour causes lachrymatlon and Irritation ofthe upper respiratory tract 1n humans and exposure. to highconcentrations cf the vapour can cause lung edema.. Thus* the ThresholdLimit Value (TLY) of this compound 1s currently set at 0.1 pp« and aShort Tent Exposure Limit (STEL) of 0.3 ppm has been recommended (1).
Detection:
The attached figure shows chromatograpMc detection of acroleln at alevel of 2 pom 1n air with the peak due to acrqle1n having a retentiontlM of just 2 rinutes. This result was obtained using the Photovac10S10 Portable Photo1on1zat1on fias Chromatograph with direct Injectionof air sample of volume 1 «L. Chroutographlc conditions are providedand Indicate that the. Instrument was set at a gain (sensitivity) of20. The maximum gain available 1s 1000 which means that, for the samesample volume, a peak of similar response would be obtained for aconcentration level of 50 times less acroleln 1n air I.e. 0.04 ppm.
The warm-up time for the 10S10 portable GC 1s just 5 minutes for ananalysis of this type and the Instrument 1s very easy to use In thisdedicated application since very simple and effective methods areavailable for accurate calibration.
Fully Automatic Measurement
Photovac also offers a portable, fully automated, self-contained,single-point air analyzer which can provide continuous and unattendedmonitoring of plant area. The Instrument 1s the 10S50 PortablePnoto1on1zat1on Gas Chromatograph and features self-calibration, asmall built-in pump which can drew air samples Into a sample loopwithin the.Instrument, automatic Injection and.presentation of data 1na printed format showing date, time of analysis and level ofconcentration.

SURVEILLANCE OF ETHYLENE.OXIDE AROUND STERILIZER FACILITIES USING THEPHOTOVAC 10S5Q PORTABLE MICROPROCESSOR-CONTROLLED GAS CKROHATOGRAPH
Introduction
Th« Photovac 10S50 1s i portable, self-contained t1r analyzer whichIncorporates self-calibration, a small Internal puep which can draw
Into a sample loop within the Instrument, automaticsamples and presentation of data In a printed format
air samplesInjection ofshowing date, time*1 of'analysis and level of concentration.
The Photovac -technology, which combines a newly-developedphoto1on1zat1on detector (PID) with gas chromatography, achievesdetection thresholds for ethylene oxide easily down to 0.01 parts permillion with a detection time of less than 100 seconds and anautomatic cycling capability as short as 120 seconds. Freon** 12 posesno Interference with the chromatography of ethylene oxide.
Harm up time for the 10S50 portable 6C 1s just 5 minutes for this typeof analysis and the Instrument 1s very easy to use In this dedicatedapplication; one day of training, (provided*by Photovac), Is all that1$ required.
For the purpose of field monitoring the 10S50 GC can run on Internalbatteries which are rechargeable. The batteries can provide sufficientpower to provide 8 hours of field use.
Since the Instrument weighs only 26 Ibs, field measurements canconveniently be carried out at various point locations within thesterilizer environments.
Ethylent Oxide Monitoring
A plant having two large sterilizer facilities was chosen as subjectfor field surveillance of ethylene oxide during the sterilizationprocess. The 10S50 GC was fitted with a length of Teflon tubing (42!x 1/8* d1a.) which served as a sampling probe.. The Instrument wastaken to three plant locations where the probe was placed at varioussampling points as outlined below:
1. The Sterilizer Equipment Area housing an ethylene oxidevolatmzer behind sterilizer No. 1.
2. The Sterilizer Equipment Area behind Sterilizer No. 2 within 3'from tubing conveying ethylene oxide to the sterilizer unit.
3. The Aereatlon section where boxes of freshly sterilized productswere stacked to outgass under a fume extractor.
Calibration and Analysis Cyclt TIM
The built-in computer of the 10S50 GC was programed to allow analysesto be performed automatically every 2 minutes with calibration onevery 10th cycle. The callbrant was a 1 pp» ethylent oxide gasstandard prepared 1n nitrogen and Introduced Into the Instrument underpressure from a small, disposable aerosol can housed In the recessprovided on the Instrument. By performing calibration at regularIntervals the computer takes note of any drift and appliescompensation. Automatic calibration and analyses tare performed usingthe six miniature solenoid valves built Into the 10S50 GC and actuatedby the five program EVENT functions which are summarized below.

Chromatographlc Technique
The chromatography used 1n conjunction with the PID employed the•precoluran backflush* technique with air as carrier gas supplied bythe built-in carrier gas reservoir. The columns used were a 6' x 1/8"precolumn connected 1n series to a 4' x 1/8* analytical column, bothpacked with Carbopack B KT (40/60). Analytlcal/backflush (F1) andSeries (F2) flow rates of carrier gas were set at 15 mL/m1n. (seeprintouts below for setup parameters and chromatograms showing thecallbrant ethylene oxide peak #4 at 1 ppm).

ANALYSIS OF SOME ALIPHATIC CHLORINATED SOLVENT VAPORS IN AMBIENT AIRUSING THE PHOTOVAC 10S50 GAS CHROMATOGRAPH
Introduction
Many of tht chloromethanes, chloroethanes and chlorocthtnts havt beenustd 1n a wide variety of commercial processes Including decreasing,paint stripping, solvent extraction and dry cleaning. A number ofthese compounds are currently viewed as suspected carcinogens and.Included among then, are carbon tetrachloMde, chloroform, methylenechloride and perchlorotthylent (tetrachloroethylene). Carbontetrachlorlde, for example, 1s reported to have caused numerous deathsfro* both IngestIon and Inhalation of the compound (1). Hence, Its useas an Industrial solvent and dry cleaning agent has been largelysuperseded by less toxic solvents. Today, carbon tetrachlorlde 1s usedprimarily 1n manufacture of fluorocarbons and as a furlgant 1n grainstorage.
Detection
The presence of chlorinated solvent vapors 1n ambient air can bereadily detected and determined down to low ppb concentrations usingthe Photovac 10S50 photoionlration gas chroaatograph.
A1r samples can be Introduced directly Into the Instrument eithermanually, using syringe Injection,or automatically, using thebuilt-in microprocessor to actuate auto sampling and Injection.
Figure 1 shows a printout of chromatographlc data obtained from the'built-in printer/plotter on the 10S50 SC. The chromatograms showseparation of methylene chloride (8 ppm), chloroform (28 pom), carbontetrachlorlde (4 ppm) and perchloroethylene (5 ppm).
Chromatography was performed on a 4* x 1/8" analytical column packedwith Si SE 30 on Chromosorb G 100/120. A 6' x 1/8* precolumn packedwith the same material can be used 1n an analytlcal/backflushconfiguration, (see Technical Bulletin No. 1 for details), which wouldenable continuous ambient air monitoring 1n plant areas where thesesolvents are being used.
Tht chromatographlc data presented 1n Flgurt 1 wetaerSbtalned using tn«microprocessor to control sampling and 1nject1cn<LSwitching tints fortht built-in miniature solenoid valves are provided at the base ofprintout. Sampling was performed using a- probe'vtro» the 10S50 GCconnected to a gas stapling bag containing a mixture of the fourchlorinated solvent vapors. A1r samples were drawn Into (1nstru«ent_jf1ja snail Internal pump.
Many other aliphatic cKforlnated solvents can be analyzed under thesame chromatographlc conditions and such compounds Include 1,1,- andl.2-d1chloroethane, I.ltl-tr1chloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethaneand trlchloroethylene.

ACRYLOH1TRILE (VINYL CYANIDE)
Introduction
Acrylonltrlle 1s ustd as • monomer 1n tht manufacture of acrylicfibres and plastics. It 1s also ustd 1n tht Manufacture of nltrtltrubbtr and as a fumlgant 1n grain storagt.
Acrylonltrlle 1s readily absorbtd from respiratory andgastrointestinal tracts and 1s regarded as a suspected carcinogen witha recommended Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of 2 pop. Its high toxldtyIs affiliated with the characteristics of the cyanide 1on.
Detection
The attached 'figure shows chromatographlc detection of aerylonltrileat a level of 50 ppm In air with the peak due to acrylonltrfle havinga retention time of just 2.7 minutes. This result was obtained usingthe Photovac 10SSO portable photolonlration gas chromatograph withdirect Injection of air sample using the built-in Microprocessor toautomatically draw. Inject and analyze the air sample from a gassampling bag.
The maximum"gain available 1s 1000 which Means that, for the samesample volume, a peak of similar response would be obtained for aconcentration level of 5 ppm. The limit of determination foracrylonltrlle would therefore be about 0.5 ppm and the limit ofdetection 1s assessed at 0.25 ppm.
The analysis was performed using a 3" x 1/8' precolumn and 2' x 1/8"analytical column, both packed with IS SP1000 on Carbopack B 60/80.

ANALYSIS OF ARSINE AND PHOSPHINE IN AMBIENT AIR USING THE PHOTOVAC10S50 GC
Introduction » .
Arslne and Phosphlne are widely useoVas doping agents in semiconductormanufacture. Other uses Include phosphlne as a fumlgant in grain storageand arslne as a poison gas in military application. .
Both gases have a garlic odour and are ne'gard'ed sufficiently toxic tohave a low Threshold Limit Value (TLV) - tthe value for arslne being0.050 ppm and for phosphlne 0.300 ppm.
Detection
The presence of these gases 1n ambient air can be readjly detecjted down.to 5 ppb using the Photovac 10S50 pnoto1oh1sat1on GC.
,\ Afr samples can be introduced directly Into the Instrument either manually,using syringe injection, or automatically using the built-in microprocessorto actuate the Internal pump and autoanalysis/autocycllng capability.
The attached figure shows the printout of chromatographlc data generatedon the built-in printer-plotter. The chromatogram shows separationof arslne and phosphlne at about 50 and 300 ppb respectively. Thisanalysis can be performed using a 6" x 1/8"' precoliimn and 4' x 1/8"analytical column, both packed with Carbopack BHT 40/60. The'flow ratesfor back-flush and series flows .can be set to 12 m1/m1n. to allow acomplete analysis within 120 seconds. Using a higher flow rate, it 1spossible to perform automatic analytical cycling for both compoundsevery 60 seconds. In such applications, a probe line, constituting 1/8"o.d. teflon tubing, can be connected to the 10S50 GC. The line couldextend up to 40 ft. and can be. conveniently placed at operator breathingzone areas in ion Implant locations or in source locations such as AsH3/PH3 cylinder storage cabinets.

Introduction
Cyanide will be determined using the Orion 407 A/F Wultineter and e Cyanide IonSpecific Electrode. Using this aetJxxJ we can deternine cyanide both
j a ta t ivl y «nrf guanitativl y.
The procedure for fhis »ethod will be determined on a case by case basis takingspecific requirements and possible findings into consideration.
we will use the Orion 407 A/F *ulti*eter and a Redox Electrode todetermine the redox potential of materials. The following procedure will beut il i zed .-
Oxidation Potential
Place SO M! of 0.001 HormaJ ferrous aasaonium sulfate solution into a 4.5 ox.heavy polypropylene cup. Measure the cell potential, of the ferrous ••mithiumsulfate solution using a millivolt (mV) meter with a platinum sensing electrodeand standard reference electrode. Remove the electrodes and add 50 ml ofsample from the pff measurement cup to the ferrous ajawonJuw sulfate solution.Mix the solutions and let stand for one minute. Measure the change in cell
potential of the mixture with the millivolt meter. A change of 50 mV in thepositive direction indicates the presence of mn oxidizing agent in the sample.Ferrous ajmmonium sulfate it used in this procedure because It if easilyoxidized and the difference in oxidation potential may be Measured with themillivolt peter. • • •
If the simple is organic in nature, the mixture may separate Into layer*. Theorganic layer of the mixture should be drained off and only the aoueous 1 m yerof the mixture is tested. It if important to Jteep the probes away fro* organic*material* because they will foal and require constant maintenance.
This test is performed because of the violent reactions that take place when anoxidizing agent cones in contact with easily oxidized material. If enoxidizing material is found on a site, it should be segregated from other-materiaJs on the site anrf disposed of separately.
The procedures I have just described will be the basis we use for determiningcompatibility in compositing samples. .Sowe materials once classified, will notbe core pos-i fed for disposal (i.e., oxidiers, water reactives, etc.;.
•> ' \Th* following is th* list of general classifications used for. -Compositing
J. 5trong Acids2. Strong Bases3. Oxidizers<. Reducing Agents5. Cyanide/Sulfide Wastes'6. Water Feactives7. riammable LiguidsA. Aalogenated Organic^9. Non-Kalogenated
10. PCS'*11... Non-Hazardous12. Radioactives
To place samples into these categories with the least ajtount of work, we mus.tfolio* a strict flow chart or decision tree. The tests we perform will be in aspecific sequence with the results of one test determining the next test to beperformed. These results will lead us to classify the material into one of theclassifications. • • .
The first test we will perform, if necessary/ "ill be to screen the drums witha Ceiger Counter to determine if^any radioactive components are present.
If a drum or sample shows significant radiation, it will be classifiedradioactive and all necessary safety procedures will be used to aove andisolate the radioectives from the rest of the waste materials.
The next step will be Co determine the organic vapor content inside the drum,us,ing the organic vapor Monitor. If a reading > 2,000 ppm is found, the drum*will be libelled 'Potentially tr plosive" until further testing i* don*.
Once all of the sample* are collected, we "ill first separate the samples basedon pH, according to the following schedule: .
Bases pHAcids ph <4 .. 'Neutral pH - 5-9 . ^
The next step will be to determine redox potential , checking for oxidizersreducers. Also, bas-ic Materials will be checked for cyanides at this time.
The remaining saaples pH 5-7 ajxJ organic* will be tested /or vater reactivity.This* will lead these sample* into one of the three following classifications:
Eon-Corrosive ClassificationI • *
1. Water Reactive~ V»ter Soli^lo^
Insoluble
The samples classified as water reactive, *^-ll be recorded fTxl segregated intoa separate group.
The ttater solubles will then be tested for flaXnoabllity .
The water insoluble vill be segregated into halogenated and non-haJogenatedcomponents.
The haJooenated saflples^will be checked for chlorides and compositedaccordingly, using inventory information.
V
non-halogenated samples will be checked for flammabil ity . Mon-flajmnabletact: ~*t oils, will be checked for PCS'*. *
t .This scheme is diagramed in .the accompanying flow chart.•~~^S ' • "*BENCH-SCALE COKPOSTTIVG }
Bench-scale compositing of similar materials is a necessary step prior toonsite compositing of the contents of drums for several reasons. First ofit provides a general confirmation- of the trhemical characterizationclassification of different samples'. It Also determines the compatibility ofmaterials within a given classification. Finally, it provides a safety marginfor subsequent onsite cowpositing by elisiinating IncovMtible materials froacompositing consideration and by identifying possible reactions to expectfull scale compositing.
« • '
Those samples which we do composite will be determined onsite depending onquantity, type and reactivity of material.
