Following the review of the performance monitoring data collected after the injection events. the Pennittee has requested the permit be r to ude a possible future injection into 6 existing wells. The previous permit allowed for the injection o 429.480 allons. To date, the Perm ittee has only injected 270A31 gallons. Previous injections have resulted in decrease ofCOCs and the Perm ittee wants to renew the permit and continue to monitor groundwater quality. with an option to conduct an additional injection if needed. Since the permit for tins injection activity has previously been approved, and information contained therein is essentially the same. I am attaching this modified memo reflecting those proposed changes from the previous permit. Please refer to the previous permit issuance memorandum for more information on this site including injection info.

V 15/2015 UIC-5I15T DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY AQUIFER PROTECTION SECTION April 5, 2011 PERMIT ISSUANCE MEMO TO: Debra Watts THROUGH: Thomas Slusser FROM: John McCraI RE: Permit To Inject Catalyzed Fydrogen Peroxide i Fenton's Reagent) Former Flakt Products. Inc, Site I recommend that Permit Number WI0400099 be issued to Former Flaki Products. Inc. Site to inject Catalyzed Hydrogen Peroxide (1'entun's Reagent) to remediate groundwater contaminated with chlorinated solvents. This permit is a renewal with modification based on results from a pilot study conducted under the original issuance of W10400098. SITE DESCRIPTION The Flakt Products Inc. site formerly housed metal fabrication operations_ and has been vacant. with the exception of a cardboard recycling facility in the northeast portion of the building, since 1985. Chlorinated solvent contamination were the results of releases from above and below ground storage tanks and metal degreasing pits. Remedial activities previously conducted consisted of in -situ volitization of contaminamsunderlying. the degreasing pits. recovery well operation. and the prey ious pilot study conducted under the original permit W 10400098. HYDROGEOLOGIC DESCRIPTION The site is located in the Piedmont Physioggaphic Province and is underlain by bedrock ofthe Milton Belt. The site is underlain fly up to 20 feet of artificial fill overlying- residual silty and clayey sand that extends to a depth of as much as 100 feet below ground surface (bgs) in the vicinity- of MW-1?0D. Weathered bedrock underlies residual soils. extending to depths rangin<u het wee❑ 70 ft bgs under the ea stem portion of the facility to 110 fl bgs under the western portion of the facility. and is underlain by competent bedrock. Within the confines of the site, the depth to groundwater ranges from 28 feet bgs to 77 feet bus. sloping to the south across the site and flows toward the southeast under a variable hydraulic piadient steepening in the vicinity of the recovery wells (Fig. 3). The aquifer has an estimated Specific Yield (available water of the aquifer) of 0.03 to 0.35 with a hydraulic conductivity of 5.1 to 7.8 feet per day (based on site specific slug tests W10400099 application, 2009) al}etwing the water to flow at an estimated rate: of'0.8 feet per day. EXTENT OF CONTAMINATION Figure 4 shows the lateral extent of contamination and the extent of the injection area in the vicinity of Ilie former UST. Depth of contamination bused on the deepest recovery well screen interval is 115 feet. The areal extent of the plume covers an area ol'approximately 1-7,000 sq, it. and has probably been spread by an extensive network of structural fractures within the sfaprobte and bedrock which can sme as v source of residual contamination in groundwater over time. PROPOSED INJECTION The Applicant proposes to inject a total of 429.480 gallons of catalyzed hydrogen peroxide solution into the underlying aquifer through eighty (80) permanent injection wells at low (10-40 psi) pressure over a series of three injection events. The total volume of the injectants is —33% of the estimated percentage of pore volume occupied by the contaminant plume volume, or —11 % of the contaminant plume volume per event. HOW IT WORKS The remedial process of catalyzed hydrogen peroxide is by short acting, strong in -situ oxidation that directly destroys organic compounds such as the site contaminants. Hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed by ferrous iron sulfate, which boosts the oxidant strength via generation of sulfate free radicals, which also are strong, short-lived oxidizing agents. Acid added into the solution (part of the Geo-Cleanse product) is a stabilizer for the ferrous sulfate and provides an optimum pH for the oxidizing reactions. MONITORING Subsequent groundwater monitoring will be conducted according to the plan set forth in the renewal application and will also include sampling from RW-b and RW-14. The plan set forth in Section D. 4.0 of the renewal application consists of a baseline event, daily events, and a 30-day post injection sampling event and will measure parameters as established in Section F. 4.0. EPIDEMIOLOGY On iun� 2i. ?fl(l . the DHHS' Epidemiology Branch provided comments on Ferltvfi Reagent for groundwater remediation. Dr. Luanne W [I] iams did not present any information that would preclude the use of these products for injection but did provide a health risk analysis and worker safety precautions, which are in Part X of the attached permit.

Permit No. WI9- PAGE 6 OF 6 ver.8147 APUIC-6 - DIVISION OF WATER QUALITY AQUIFER PROTECTION SECTION March 27, 2009 MEMORANDUM TO: Debra Watts , FROM: Thomas Slusser 7. 7S RE: Permit To Inject Catalyzed Hydrogen Peroxide (Fenton's Reagent) Former Flakt Products, Inc. Facility I recommend that Permit Number WI0400098 be issued to Flakt Products, Inc. for the use of Fenton's chemistry to remediate ground water contaminated with chlorinated solvents. This permit is for a pilot test of an injection project intended to supplement groundwater remediation activities operating under NPDES permit NCO085871 at this same facility, SITE DESCRIPTION The site is a former metal fabrication facility in operation since 1965. The building has been vacant since 1985 except for a cardboard recycling facility operating in the northeast portion of the building. Groundwater contamination is primarily on the south side of the building near the former UST area. HYDROGEOLOGIC DESCRIPTION The site is located in the western piedmont and is underlain by sandy, silty. clayey soils and saprolite developed from felsic metamorphic rocks. Fractures of varying frequency occur in saprolite and bedrock with some zones of intense fracturing. Depth to groundwater ranges from 28 feet north of the facility to 77 feet south of the facility, near a line of recovery wells associated with a NPDES groundwater remediation system. Groundwater flows to the south under a hydraulic gradient increasingly steeper toward the line of recovery wells; see Figure 3. EXTENT OF CONTAMINATION Figure 4 shows the lateral extent of contamination and the pilot test area near recovery well RW-I0. The depth of contamination is at least 115 feet based on the deepest recovery well screened interval. The abundance of fractures probably helped distribute contamination at depth and is likely to act as a source of residual contamination in groundwater over time. PROPOSED INJECTION 1800 gallons of catalyzed hydrogen peroxide will be injected via nine permanent injection wells, which are to be constructed near the former UST area as indicated in Figure 2A. Six wells will be screened from 50-55 feet depth and three screened from 60-65 feet depth; there will be two pairs of nested wells, having one of each of these wells in a single borehole. These injection intervals were chosen for this pilot test in order to correspond to the screened intervals of nearby monitoring wells MW-I 12 and MW-129. The proposed injectant makes use of Fenton's chemistry, which is hydrogen peroxide catalyzed with iron sulfate and an acid. Hydrogen peroxide will be injected at a concentration not to exceed 11.3%. which is less than the maximum of 15% that the UIC Program typically permitted in previous permits. HOW IT WORKS Hydrogen peroxide is a strong, short-lived oxidant that directly destroys organic compounds, such as the site contaminants. Hydrogen peroxide is catalyzed by ferrous iron sulfate, which boosts the oxidant strength via generation of sulfate free radicals, which are also strong, short-lived oxidizing agents. The acid, to be either phosphoric or sulfuric, is a stabilizer for the ferrous sulfate and provides the optimum pH for these powerful oxidizing reactions. MONITORING The groundwater monitoring plan detailed in Attachment F of the application package will be followed with the following revision: RCRA metals are to sampled prior to injection and until concentrations return to pre -injection levels. Wells proposed for monitoring are located in the vicinity of the injection wells; the most downgradient well, recovery well RW-10. is -- 10 feet from the nearest injection well. Offsite migration of contaminants is not of concern because of the recovery well network and low injection volume to pore space ratio (21 % based on average porosity estimate). EPIDEMIOLOGY On June 21.2004, Dr. Luanne Williams provided comments on Fentons's Reagent for groundwater remediation. Dr. Williams did not present any information that would preclude the use of these products for injection but did provide a health risk analysis and worker safety precautions, which are in Part X of the attached permit.
