BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND PURPOSE OF REPORT The Site is located in Gaston County, North Carolina, approximately 15 miles west of Charlotte (Figure 1.1). The 6-acre Site is a former solvent reclamation and waste storage facility which had two operators: C.A. Hughes, Inc. (1971 to 1975); and Jadco, Inc. (1975). The Site was closed in 1975 and a North Carolina (State) ordered cleanup was completed by 1983. After closure of the Site, several reconnaissance evaluations were conducted by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEP A) and the State which identified residual contamination. The Site was subsequently placed on the National Priorities List (NPL) in May 1986. Later in 1986, an Administrative Order on Consent was entered into between USEPA and a group of companies identified as potentially responsible parties (PRPs) who formed the Jadco-Hughes Steering Committee (Steering Committee). Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA) was retained by the Steering Committee to conduct a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study (RI and FS) and Superfund Risk Assessment (SRA). Based on the analytical results for the soil, groundwater, surface water and sediment samples which were collected during the RI, the delineated Site contamination included: • approximately 435 cubic yards (c.y.) of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) contaminated surface soil; 1 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOC!A TES I I I I I I ti I I u u n 8 8 G I D 0 o' 1000' ,-' - /"' ------c'.s -· -. -' .:_ ... ,--·--. -~· --. - \ ,,o___,,! . __./ .

LAr,r£' I I figure 1.1 SITE LOCATION JADCO-HUGHES SITE Gaston County, NC I I I I I ' I I I I I I I I I a B I I 3669 (18) • approximately 6,000 c.y. of subsurface soil containing volatile organic compounds (VOes) and base/neutral and acid extractable compounds (BN As) and to a lesser extent, metals; • Site groundwater containing voes and BNAs; and • surface water in Tributary B containing voes. The SRA concluded that the groundwater and surface water pathways at the Site presented an unacceptable current and future risks to human health and to the environment. During the RI and FS, an Interim Remedial Measure (IRM) was completed between September and December 1990 which resulted in the excavation and disposal of PCB contaminated soils in the southeast swale area. Approximately 900 c.y. of soils were excavated and disposed of off-Site by landfilling at the Chemical Waste Management Inc. landfill in Emelle, Alabama. Upon completion of the RI and FS, USEPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) on September 27, 1990. The final remedy selected by USEPA in the ROD and further described in the Scope of Work (SOW) requires the following actions: 1) Provision of deed and access restrictions; 2) Performance of soil and groundwater remedy treatability studies; 3) Further delineation of groundwater contamination by installing five additional groundwater monitoring wells and six piezometers; 4) Treatment of soils in the former landfill and approximately 500 c.y. of soil from the Former Operations Area which are to be consolidated into the former landfill. The soils shall be treated by a combination of soil vapor extraction (SVE) and soil flushing. The SVE system will be constructed and operated until data indicate that no further VOCs can 2 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I 9 D 0 I I I ' I I I I I 3669 (18) practicably be removed. The soil flushing system will be operated as an integral component of the groundwater collection and treatment system; 5) Construction of a groundwater extraction system within the Site boundaries including four extraction wells, in areas of elevated contaminant levels, a subsurface drainage tile trench to collect contaminated groundwater and a groundwater collection sump in the annulus of the slip-lined culvert to collect groundwater that is discharging to the culvert; 6) Construction of an on-Site treatment system. The system would consist of an equalization and aeration tank. The air vented from the aeration tank would be treated by carbon adsorption. The effluent from the treatment system would be pumped to a City of Mt. Holly sanitary sewer system manhole for subsequent treatment at the Mt. Holly publicly owned treatment works (POTW); 7) Excavation and repair of the damaged sections of the Site culvert followed by slip-lining of the culvert with butt-welded polyethylene pipe; 8) Construction of a gravity drainage line to carry uncontaminated groundwater from the spring discharge to the Tributary B north of the Former Operations Area; 9) Construction of a surface water diversion consisting of a Site spillway; 10) Provision of long-term operation and maintenance including monitoring of system controls; 11) Implementation of a monitoring program to assess the performance of groundwater extraction, aeration and discharge system components. Periodic monitoring of the groundwater will be performed to assure that the remedy is working; and 3 CONESTOCA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES E m I u a I I I I , I I • u 'ft n D a I a I I 1 I I I u I I I I I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) 12) Tracking of analytical results to measure the efficiency /effectiveness of the remedy. Following issuance of the ROD by USEPA, the Steering Committee was issued with an administrative order under Section 106 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (Order) on June 19, 1991. Accompanying the Order was USEPA's Scope of Work (SOW) for the Remedial Design/Remedial Action (RD/RA) for the final remedy. The RD/RA schedule was revised according to USEPA's schedule which was provided in a March 20, 1992 RD letter. CRA has been retained to prepare the RD/RA Work Plans and perform associated design activities. In accordance with the SOW, pre-RD investigative activities were completed by CRA between April and June 1993 and included the following activities: • a geophysical survey in the northern portion of the Site to supplement the subsurface investigations that were completed during the Remedial Investigation (RI) in this Area and the RI's geophysical survey completed in the southern portion of the Site; • analyses of one round of groundwater samples from existing monitoring wells as part of the initiation of the groundwater monitoring program to verify RI data for the RD and to assess the impact of silts and sediments on metals concentrations in groundwater analyses; • the installation of five additional monitoring wells and six piezometers (Figure 1.2) to characterize groundwater chemistry and aquifer hydraulics and to establish the Site sentry groundwater monitoring system required by the USEPA's remedy for the Site (see Figure 1.2); • analyses of one round of groundwater samples from the new monitoring wells to characterize groundwater chemistry and aquifer hydraulics and to confirm the vertical extent of groundwater contamination; and 4 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES --- LOCATED ON CAROUNA CUSTOM CABINETS PROPERTY CAA - -- ellWGS el'Z•S PROPERTY LINE SHALLOW MONITORING 'M:Ll DEEP MONITORING Wfll LOCATION SHALLOW P1£ZOU[l[R DEEP Pl[ZOMETER PUMPING WELL - I I I I I I I I ) \ ;,' I I J669 (18) JAN 2B/94(W) R[V.O (P-55) I!!!!!! ,!!!!9 == TEXTILE SALES AND REPAIR PROPERTY MW1J(l WW1J5 • aa 0 50 IOO!l H I MONITORING WELL AND iiiii \ STARNES PROPERTY figure 1.2 PIEZOMETER LOCATIONS JADCO-HUGHES SITE Gaston County, NC - I D D I I I I I I I I I I ' I I I I I 31i69 (18} • performance of a groundwater treatability study and a soil vapor extraction (SVE) pilot study. RD is defined as those activities required to prepare the final plans and specifications, general provisions and specific requirements necessary to translate the ROD and SOW into the remedy to be constructed under the RA phase. RA is the implementation phase of site remediation or the actual construction of the remedy, including necessary operation and maintenance and performance monitoring. The RA is based on the RD to achieve the remediation goals specified in the ROD. The first task associated with the RD /RA for the Site was the completion of a Site visit and scoping session. This scoping session was held on August 29, 1991 and documented by CRA in the August 1991 progress report to USEPA dated September 5, 1991. No substantive modifications to the RD/RA resulted from this scoping session. The second task associated with the RD/RA for the Site was the preparation and submittal of a RD Work Plan. The RD Work Plan, consisting of the RD Work Plan, the Sampling and Analyses Plan, the Treatability Study Work Plan and the Health and Safety Plan was submitted to USEPA on September 30, 1991. The RD Work Plan was formally approved in its entirety by USEPA on April 7, 1993. The third task associated with the RD/RA for the Site was the preparation and submittal of a Preliminary Design Report reflecting the design effort at 30 percent completion. The Preliminary Design Report was based on pre-design activities which were conducted at the Site between April and June 1993, as described above. The Preliminary Design Report, documenting the results of the pre-design activities, treatability studies, and the RD at the 30 percent design phase was submitted to USEPA on August 5, 1993. USEPA commented on the Preliminary Design Report in a letter dated October 15, 1993 which was received by CRA on October 28, 1993. The Steering Committee responded to USEPA's comments in a letter dated November 29, 1993. USEPA has not submitted its responses to the Steering Committee's November 29, 1993 letter. 5 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I a u D u 3669 (18) The RA Work Plan, as presented herein, is submitted to USEPA as the fourth task associated with the RD/RA for the Site. The RA Work Plan presents the implementation, management and sequencing of the remedial construction activities required to implement the RD for the Site as presented in the Prefinal Design Report. The scheduled submission date for the RA Work Plan is January 31, 1994. The fifth task associated with the RD /RA for the Site is the preparation and submittal of a Remediation Goal Verification Plan. The Remediation Goal Verification Plan is a separate document which will be submitted under separate cover to USEPA concurrent with this report as required by the SOW. The scheduled submission date for the Remediation Goal Verification Plan is January 31, 1994. The sixth task associated with the RD/RA for the Site will be the preparation and submittal of a Prefinal Design Report reflecting the design effort at 90 percent completion. The scheduled submission date for the Prefinal Design Report is February 28, 1994. The seventh task associated with the RD/RA for the Site will be the preparation and submittal of an Operation and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan). The O&M Plan will be submitted concurrently with the Prefinal Design Report. The eighth task associated with the RD/RA for the Site will be the preparation and submittal of a Final Design Report reflecting the design effort at 100 percent completion. The Final Design Report is scheduled to be submitted to USEPA on April 29, 1994. The above due dates are based upon a schedule proposed in the November 29, 1993 letter to USEPA. This schedule will be dependent upon USEP A approval of the schedule .and time-frames for USEP A approval of the submittals. 6 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I g D u I I I I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) The remaining tasks associated with the RD/RA for the Site include: the construction of the remedy; the inspection of the completed construction by USEPA; the preparation and submission of the Remedial Action Report; and the Operation and Maintenance Manual; and the long-term operation, maintenance and monitoring of the remedy. 1.2 ORGANIZATION OF REPORT This includes each of the required elements as outlined in the SOW.

The major components of the RA to be implemented at the Site consist of the following: 1) Excavation and repair of the damaged sections of the Site culvert followed by slip-lining of the culvert with butt-welded polyethylene pipe, construction of a gravity drainage line to carry uncontaminated groundwater from the spring discharge to the Tributary B north of the Former Operations Area and construction of a surface water diversion consisting of a Site spillway. 2) Construction of a groundwater extraction system within the Site boundaries including four extraction wells, in areas of elevated contaminant levels, a subsurface drainage tile trench to collect contaminated groundwater and a groundwater collection sump in the annulus of the slip-lined culvert to collect groundwater that is presently discharging to the culvert; 3) Construction of an on-Site treatment system. The system shall consist of an equalization and aeration tank. The air vented from the aeration tank will be treated by carbon adsorption. The effluent from the treatment system will be pumped to the City of Mt. Holly sanitary sewer system manhole for subsequent treatment at the publicly owned treatment works (POTW); 4) Treatment of soils in the former landfill and approximately 500 c.y. of soil from the Former Operations Area which are to be consolidated into the former landfill; and 5) Construction of a soil flushing system utilizing some of the components of the SVE system and installing a soil flushing collection trench for future operation. This SVE system construction includes the consolidation of surplus excavated soils from the groundwater 9 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I m D B I I I I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) extraction system and treatment facility construction into a soil cap on the surface of the former landfill. 1.4 PROTECT ORGANIZATION CRA is the primary consultant to the Jadco-Hughes Steering Committee for the RD portion of the RD/RA and will be performing the construction management during the implementation of the RA. Additional subcontractors will be selected to perform specific tasks during the RA phase of the RD/RA. Project organization charts for the remedial construction activities are provided in the Quality Assurance Project Plans for construction activities, presented in Appendix C, for each phase of the remedial construction. 1.5 BASIS FOR REMEDIAL CONSTRUCTION The remedial construction for the RA selected for the Site is based on the provisions of the SOW and the design for the RA of the Site as presented in the Prefinal Design Report. 10 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 2.0 3669 {18) EXISTING CONDITIONS The Jadco-Hughes Site is located between the Catawaba River and the South Fork at the Catawaba River in a region known as the Piedmont physiographic province in Gaston County. The region is primarily rolling uplands although the county's western area contains some northeast trending ridges. The Site itself is flat, sloping slightly from south to north. The southern elevation is approximately 666 feet above mean sea level (AMSL) and the northern is approximately 653 feet AMSL. The Site is located in an unincorporated area between the cities of Belmont and Mt. Holly. The aerial photographs indicate that the Site was farmland until the late 1960s and was subsequently used for a solvent reclamation and waste storage facility until 1975. The Site shows little evidence of past Site operation. The majority of the 6-acre Site is revegetated. The southern and eastern boundaries are treed. Remnants of the facility include: a fence (now replaced with an 8-foot high barbed wire perimeter fence), a truck unloading area, a concrete pad, culvert and building remnants. Land to the south and east of the Site is wooded and undisturbed. The eastern area adjacent to the Site is sloped steeply upwards (to the east). Land to the west of the Site is utilized for industrial purposes. There is a former wood products plant to the southwest of the Site and a textile machinery supply warehouse opposite the Site. The area to the north of the Site is utilized for private residences. A machine shop and automobile service center/wrecking yard are also located among the residences. 11 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I I I 0 0 D D u I I 3669 (18) Drainage from the Site flows to tributaries of Fites Creek and ultimately to the Catawaba River approximately 2.5 miles downstream. Figure 2.1 illustrates the drainage pattern of the Site and downstream watercourses. The Site is predominantly underlain by a unit of weathered granite known as saprolite to a depth of 95 feet below ground surface. Lenses of fluvial deposits of clay, silt and sand lie upon this unit near ground surface. Granite bedrock underlies the saprolite and is found at depths below 95 feet. Figure 2.2 illustrates the geology underlying the Site by means of Cross-section A-A' which transects the Site. The section location is shown on Figure 2.1. A water table is found at a depth of approximately 9 feet below ground surface. Groundwater within the saprolite migrates north at a rate of approximately 8 to 14 feet/year and is strongly influenced by groundwater discharge into the on-Site culvert and tributaries to Fites Creek. Figure 2.3 presents the groundwater flow patterns in the shallow saprolite (approximately 15 feet below ground surface). Figure 2.4 presents the groundwater flow patterns in the deep saprolite (approximately 45 fee~ below ground surface). These groundwater contours are based on data collected during the hydraulic monitoring round in May 1993 and are similar to the contours presented in the RI. The Site is fenced with an 8-foot high chain link and barbed wire fence. This fence was installed in 1990 as part of a soil removal program completed by the Steering Committee. Contamination profiles for on-Site groundwater and soil are presented in Section 3.1.2 of the Preliminary Design Report (CRA, August 1993) and in Appendix B, Section B.2.0. 12 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I!!!!!

Access agreements have been obtained for implementation of the pre-design activities, and for implementation of the RA on the properties adjacent to the south, east, west and north borders of the Site. These access agreements have been submitted to USEPA under separate cover and are included in Appendix A. The Jadco-Hughes Site is a CERCLA Site and, thus, is not required to obtain permits for activities conducted at the Site. In preparation for the RA, the Steering Committee has developed a list of permit programs for which the substantive requirements are to be identified and met by the RA. These permit programs are listed below: 1. SVE An air discharge permit application is to be filed to the State of North Carolina for the SVE system discharge. The State has advised CRA that no permit is required for this remediation system since the pilot study provided a favorable evaluation of the SVE system and the best available control technology will be utilized. However, the State (Keith Overcash, Air Quality Section) requested in a letter to CRA dated May 13, 1993 that the SVE system be registered with the Division of Environmental Management, Mooresville Regional Office by sending the following information: • location of the Site; • type and quantity of compounds expected to be emitted to the ambient air; • brief description of the remediation system components; and 13 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I I I I I • I I I I 3669 (18) • duration of time that the remediation system is expected to be operated. 2. Groundwater Extraction 3. 4. Extraction well permit applications will be filed for the groundwater extraction system pursuant to State requirements. POTW Discharge A discharge permit will be obtained from the City of Mt. Holly in early 1994. This permit will have specific discharge limits for the Site. The Jadco-Hughes Steering Committee completed its negotiations with the City and an agreement which will lead to the issuance of a sewer discharge permit was executed in-December 1993. Sediment and Erosion Control The State requires that a permit be obtained when any construction occurs on an area which exceeds one acre. The substantive requirements outlined in the North Carolina Erosion Control Design Manual will be incorporated in a Sediment and Erosion Control Plan to be provided in the Final Design. This plan will document site features and control measures to be implemented during construction and in the long-term to prevent erosion of soil and associated sediment migration. 5. Miscellaneous Permit Requirements Miscellaneous permit requirements include building permits and electric utility permits. The Steering Committee will assign the responsibility of obtaining these miscellaneous permits to the selected RA Contractor(s). 14 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I I I 4.0 3669 (18) CONSTRUCTION HEAL TH AND SAFETY PLAN A Construction Health and Safety Plan (HASP) is required to ensure that all remedial construction activities are performed safely and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, and that all persons on Site, the general public and the environment are protected from exposure to Site-related contaminated material during implementation of the remedial construction activities at the Site. A HASP has been developed for the remedial construction activities associated with the RA for the Site and is presented in Appendix B. Each employer involved in remedial construction activities at the Site will be required to develop and implement their own Site-specific HASP for activities they will perform at the Site. The HASP included in Appendix B will form the basis and minimum requirements for each employer's Site-specific HASP. The remedial contractors will prepare and submit a HASP to CRA before commencing work at the Site which could potentially result in contact with contaminated materials. CRA will review the HASP with respect to its consistency with Appendix B and the Contract requirements and approve the HASP prior to its implementation. CRA will also receive and review requisite training and medical surveillance documentation for contractor employees. 15 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES D D I I 0 u I D I I I I I I I I I I 5.0 3669 (18) SITE MANAGEMENT AND SEQUENCING The five components of the remedial construction at the . Site are described in Section 1.0 and are generally described as follows: 1) culvert replacement/ spillway construction. 2) groundwater extraction system; 3) groundwater treatment system; 4) SVE system; and 5) soil flushing system. Management of the Site during implementation of the remedial construction will be required to ensure that the Site operates in an orderly, efficient and safe manner, and to ensure that the remedial construction is successfully implemented in accordance with the RD. The tasks to complete the five components of the remedial construction have been sequenced to meet the following major objectives: i) ii) iii) iv) tasks should be performed in an orderly and safe manner such that the movement and double handling of materials and the exposure of personnel and the public to Site-related contaminants is minimized; tasks should be scheduled such that movement of contaminated materials over clean areas is avoided or minimized, and sequencing of tasks should result in the exclusion zone diminishing in size as the RA is implemented; tasks should be performed to encourage stormwater percolation. This would serve the dual purpose of preventing potentially contaminated run-off from leaving the Site and promoting the flushing of residual contaminants from the soil to the groundwater collection system; and upon completion of grading and excavation activities, the contractor should perform the work under conditions not requiring air monitoring or decontamination activities such that 40-hour OSHA trained workers are not required for construction activities. 16 CONESTOGA·ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I I I I I I It I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) Sequencing of the remedial construction tasks is presented in Sections 6.0 to 11.0. 5.1 REMEDIAL ACTION CONTRACTOR SELECTION A remedial contractors will be selected by a competitive bidding process. Bids will be solicited from qualified remedial contractors for performance of the remedial construction and for the installation of extraction wells. A contract reflecting the requirements of the RA Work Plan, the Final Design Report, the SOW and standard contract administration requirements will be entered into by the Steering Committee and the successful remedial contractor(s). The first activity to be completed by the selected remedial contractor is the preparation and submission (to CRA) of a Site-specific HASP for the work to be completed at the Site. The discussion of the sequencing of activities in Sections 6:0 through 10.0, below, do not include this task as a separate activity, since it will be completed at the start of construction for all phases of the work. All contractors retained by the Steering Committee will be required to prepare and submit a HASP before commencing work involving the excavation or handling of soils at the Site. 5.2 SITE MANAGEMENT Site activities related to the remedial construction will be supervised by a qualified engineer. Daily logs will be maintained for all activities occurring at the Site during remedial construction activities. Besides daily monitoring of the remedial construction activities, weekly progress meetings will be conducted with the remedial contractor(s) and monthly progress meetings will be conducted during the pedod of active construction with the remedial contractor(s), the Steering Committee and 17 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES I I I I I • I I I I I I I I ,, I I I I 3669 (18) USEPA.

Section 2.0 of the RA Work Plan presents a description of current Site conditions. The five remedial construction components to be implemented at the Site are as follows: • construction of the spillway, culvert and drainage line; • construction of the groundwater extraction system; • construction of the groundwater treatment system; • construction of the soil vapor extraction system; and • construction of the soil flushing system. During the remedial construction, personnel may come in contact with soils, groundwater, sludge and/ or sediments which potentially contain hazardous substances. To ensure _that direct contact with potentially contaminated material by Site personnel is minimized, this HASP will be adhered to by all on-Site personnel involved with the RA. This HASP has been developed to ensure the following: i) that Site· personnel are not adversely exposed to the compounds of concern; ii) that public welfare and the environment are not adversely impacted by off-Site migration of contaminated rpaterials due to work activities at the Site; iii) compliance with applicable governmental and non-governmental [American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienist (ACGIH)] regulations and guidelines. In particular, the amended rules of the Occupational Safety and Health Act for Subpart Hof Part 1910 (Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1910.120) will be implemented for Site work; and B-1 CONESTOCA·ROVERS & ASSOCIATES 3669 (18) iv) initiation of proper emergency response procedures to minimize the potential for any adverse impact to Site workers, the general public or the environment. For the purpose of this HASP, the components of the RA activities performed on Site involving contact with potentially contaminated materials will be considered contaminated operations requiring personal protective equipment (PPE). A detailed description of the PPE required is presented in Section B.8.0. All RA activities at the Site will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of this Site-specific HASP. Cost and/or scheduling considerations will not be considered as justification for modifying this plan. A copy of this HASP and applicable Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) will be maintained on Site whenever Site activities associated with the RA activities are in progress.

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were detected in subsurface soils in the former landfill and in very low concentrations in groundwater samples from one monitoring well. Table B.2.1 identifies the contaminants in the subsurface soil of the former landfill area and the former operations area and their representative concentrations. The location of the former landfill area and the former operations area on Site are shown on Figure B.2.1. Table B.2.2 presents the contaminant profile of the on-Site groundwater.

The establishment of all the Sites work zone boundaries may be modified by the HSO and/or Supervising Contractor (CRA). The purpose of establishing these work zones is to limit access to potentially contaminated areas or areas which may cause physical injury to individuals and to prevent the migration of potentially contaminated materials into adjacent non-contaminated areas. These designated work zones are described as follows: i) Exclusion Zone (EZ) -this zone will include areas where potentially contaminated soils, sediments, waters or waste material are located, excavated, removed, transferred, stored, or disposed of and all areas where contaminated equipment or personnel travel including the decontamination area. Sufficient area will be provided for efficient and safe movement of personnel and equipment as well as contaminant control. The EZ will be delinJ,ated in the field with fencing, flagging or warning barriers. Access to the EZ will be restricted to personnel who are wearing the proper PPE, have received and passed the required medical examination and have undergone the required health and safety training. A log of entry to and exit from the EZ will be maintained for the purpose of stress monitoring and determining exposure times; ii) iii) Contamination Reduction Zone (CRZ) -this zone lies immediately adjacent to the EZ and occurs at the interface of the EZ and Support Zone (SZ) and will provide for the transfer of construction materials, personnel and equipment, a place for donning and disposing of PPE, the storing of emergency first aid equipment and supplemental safety supplies. Access to the CRZ will be restricted to personnel who have received and passed the required medical examination and have undergone the required health and safety training; and Support Zone (SZ) -this area is comprised of the remainder of the designated work area at the Site and is defined as being an area outside B-10 CONESTOGA·ROVERS & ASSOCIATES 3669 (18) the zone of significant air, soil or surface water contamination. The SZ will be clearly delineated and procedures will be implemented to prevent active or passive contamination from the other work zones. The function of the SZ includes: a) b) c) d) an entry area for personnel, material and equipment to the CRZ, an exit for decontaminated personnel, materials and equipment from the CRZ, a storage area for clean safety and work equipment; and an area for ea ting, drinking and smoking. The work activities to be conducted for each component of the RA at the Site are detailed in Sections 6.0 to 10.0 of the RA Work Plan for the Site.

All on-Site personnel will be required to comply with their employer's specific written respiratory protection program developed in accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134. Respiratory protectio1;1 will be required during all subsurface ground activities, subject to the results of air monitoring. This is to ensure worker protection from potentially contaminated particulates. During work at the Site a Photoionization Detector (PIO) will be used to determine if organic vapors are present. A background reading will be established prior to commencing work activities at each active work area. Action levels to determine the level of respiratory protection necessary during nonground invasive activities are based on the concentration of unknown organic vapors measured within the breathing zone. The action levels and appropriate respiratory protection for these Site activities are as follows: Sustained Organic Vapor Reading Above Background within Breathing Zone 0 -5 ppm or background 5-50 ppm >50 ppm >500 ppm B-15 Action Taken full-facepiece air purifying respirator available wear full-face air purifying respirator wear supplied air respirator shut down activities, implement additional engineering controls CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES 3669 (18) However, if the ambient concentrations of organic vapors are due to identifiable substances, the level of respiratory protection may be altered by the HSO. Periodic air monitoring data may be obtained which will form the basis of making modifications to the levels of respiratory protection presented above.

The following air monitoring instrumentation will be used for this purpose: i) a PIO; and ii) a real time digital particulate monitor. All monitoring equipment will be calibrated on a daily basis in accordance with the manufacturer's guidelines, and such calibrations will be recorded in the Site daily log book. Results of daily air monitoring also will be recorded in the Site daily log book. Air monitoring will be conducted in the breathing zone of workers in the EZ and at the downwind perimeter of the Site on an hourly basis or as deemed necessary by the HSO based on Site-specific conditions. Background measurements immediately:upwind of the EZ will be taken before activities commence. Work activities generating sustained particulate levels in excess of 150 µg/m3 or sustained organic vapor levels greater than 10 ppm above background at the downwind Site perimeter, will temporarily be halted until alternate work methods or engineering controls are in place to maintain particulate levels below 150 µg/m3 and organic vapor levels below 10 ppm above background at the downwind Site perimeter. These action levels may be modified based upon chemical-specific data. Respiratory action levels for organic vapors are discussed in Section 9.0. Immediately upon identifying sustained elevated levels of organic vapors (greater than 500 parts per million) within the work zone, the air monitoring results will be reported to the HSO, and work activities will be shut down. The HSO or his designee will determine the cause of the B-19 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOC!A TES 3669 (18) sustained elevated levels of organic vapors, and alternate work methods or engineering controls will be implemented to rectify the release of elevated concentrations of organic vapors, or the level of PPE will be upgraded as required.

A coordination meeting will be held with appropriate local authorities to identify the remedial action activities to be performed on Site and to discuss the protocols to be taken in the event of an incident. The contingency plan will be developed to incorporate the following: 1) notification of incident; 2) evacuation of adjacent areas; 3) transport of injured personnel to medical facilities; and 4) priority transportation routes. B.14.2 ON-SITE CONTINGENCY PLAN In the event of injury to on-Site personnel or contact with hazardous materials, the following protocols will be followed: 1) in the event of injury, notify the HSO, and the Resident Engineer; 2) 3) contact hospital and describe the injury ( Gaston Memorial Hospital, as shown on Figure B.12.1); decontaminate personnel and administer appropriate emergency first aid; and B-23 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASS<XIA TES g 0 D D 0 0 u I I I I I g • • I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) 4) transport personnel to the hospital along the following predefined route. The predefined route is as follows: turn left on Cason Street upon exiting the Site; follow Cason Street to the end, turn left on Woodlawn Street; follow Woodlawn to the end (set of traffic lights), turn right on Old Route 273; follow signs to Interstate Highway 85 west (on right side); follow Highway 85 for approximately four miles, exit New Hope Road; turn right on New Hope Road; turn right on Court Road; follow Court Road for approximately one mile; Gaston Memorial Hospital is on the right side. Fire extinguishers will be maintained in strategic locations within the Site to combat small localized fires. In the event of significant release of potentially toxic or hazardous vapors from any container or excavation, equipment operators will immediately don self contained breathing apparatus and the source of such vapors will be backfilled or covered with fill. Alternate plans of contaminant removal will be developed and submitted to the HSO prior to recommencing work in the area. The Resident Engineer will assume the responsibility of notifying USEP A of such an incident. Emergency telephone numbers for the Site are listed in Table B.12.1. Figure B.12.1 and Table B.12.1 will be posted in a prominent place in the CZ. B-24 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES B.15.0 EQUIPMENT AND PERSONNEL DECONTAMINATION 3669 (18) During the initiation of the RA activities, procedures will be implemented to reduce the amount of contact of both personnel and equipment with the waste constituents. These procedures include the following: i) proper work practices that would lead to minimal direct contact with potentially contaminated material (e.g. avoid contact in areas of obvious contamination, remote sampling and handling procedures, etc.); ii) use of disposable equipment and clothing as much as practicable; and iii) encase source of contaminants (e.g. with plastic sheeting or foam). All vehicles and equipment leaving the EZ which came in contact with potentially contaminated material will be decontaminated on the vehicle/equipment decontamination pad, and as a minimum will include high pressure water wash of the affected areas of the vehicle/equipment. Personnel decontamination will take place at the exit from the EZ and will, as a minimum, consist of a glove and boot wash with detergent and removal of gloves, boots, disposable suit and hard hat. All personnel will remove their protective clothing and wash their hands, face, neck area and other exposed areas before entering the on-Site lunch and break areas to eat, drink, smoke or use the toilet facilities, and before leaving the Site.

Decontamination, when required, will consist of the thorough cleaning, using a high pressure cleaner, of those parts of the equipment which come in contact with potentially contaminated material. The HSO will certify that each piece of.equipment is clean or has been decontaminated prior to removal from Site. Personnel engaged in vehicle decontamination will wear Level C personal protective equipment including respiratory protection and face shields. All decontamination wash waters, decontamination solvents, purge water, well development water and water generated from dewatering excavations will be collected and treated in the on-Site groundwater treatment system. B-26 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES B.17.0 3669 ~8) CONFINED SPACE ENTRY PROCEDURE A confined space provides the potential for unusually high concentrations of contaminants, explosive atmospheres, oxygen deficient atmospheres, limited visibility and restricted movement. This Section establishes requirements for safe entry into, continued work in, and safe exit from confined spaces. Additional information regarding confined space entry can be found in 29 CFR 1926.21, 29 CFR 1910 and NIOSH 80-106. At this Site, confined spaces may be encountered during excavation activities or if any tank or vessel needs to be entered for cleaning purposes. B.17.1 DEFINITIONS Confined Space: A space or work area not designed or intended for normal human occupancy, having limited means of egress and poor natural ventilation; and/ or any structure, including buildings or rooms, which have limited means of egress. Confined Space Entry Permit (CSEP): A document to be initiated by the supervisor of personnel who are to enter into or work in a confined space. The CSEP will be completed by the personnel involved in the entry and approved by the HSO before personnel will be permitted to enter the confined space. The CSEP shall be valid only for the performance of the work identified on the permit and for the location and time specified on the permit. The beginning of a new shift with change of personnel will require the issuance of a new CSEP. A copy of a CSEP is provided in Attachment B-2. Confined Space Observer: An individual assigned to monitor the activities of personnel working within a confined space. The confined space observer monitors and provides external assistance to those inside the confined space. The confined space observer summons rescue personnel in the event of emergency and assists the rescue team.

Sampling will be done throughout the confined space and specifically at the lowest point in the space, the absence of other atmospheric contaminants if the space has previously contained toxic, corrosive or irritant material, and if remote testing is not possible, Level B PPE is required for confined space entry; designate whether hot or cold work will be allowed. If all tests are satisfactory, complete the CSEP listing any safety precautions, protective equipment or other requirements; and x) ensure that a copy of the CSEP is posted at the work Site, a copy is filed with the work supervisor and a copy is furnished to the Engineer. The CSEP shall be considered void if work in the confined space does not start within one hour after the tests in Item viii) above are performed or if significant changes within the confined space atmosphere or job scope occurs. The CSEP posted at the work Site shall be removed at the completion of the job or the end of the shift, whichever is first. B.17.4 CONFINED SPACE OBSERVER The duties of the confined space observer are as follows: i) while personnel are inside the confined space, a confined space observer will monitor the activities and provide external assistance to those in the confined space. The observer will not have other duties which may take his attention away from the work or require him to leave the vicinity of the confined space at any time while personnel are in the confined space; CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES g 0 0 D D -11 --·II· I I I I I I I I I • I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I 3669 (18) ii) the confined space observer sha\l maintain at least voice contact with all personnel in the confined space. Visual contact is preferred, if possible; iii) the confined space observer shall be instructed by his supervisor or the HSO in the method for contacting rescue personnel in the event of an emergency; iv) if irregularities within the confined space are detected by the observer, personnel within the confined space will be ordered to exit; v) in the event of an emergency, the confined space observer must not enter the confined space prior to contacting and receiving assistance from a helper. Prior to this time, he should attempt to remove personnel with the lifeline and to perform all other rescue functions from outside the space; and vi) a helper shall be designated to provide assistance to the confined space observer in case the observer must enter the confined space to retrieve personnel. B-32 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES B.18.0 (1) 3669 {18) HEAT STRESS The combination of warm ambient temperature and protective clothing increases the potential for heat stress. In particular, heat stress can be evident as: i) heat rash; ii) heat cramps; iii) heat exhaustion; and/ or iv) heat stroke. These hazards will be discussed during daily safety meetings before commencement of work activities, when relevant. Personnel must increase consumption of water and electrolyte-containing beverages, such as Gatorade, during warm and hot weather conditions. At a minimum, workers will break approximately every two hours for 10-to 15-minute rest periods. In addition, workers will be encouraged to take rests whenever they feel any adverse effects that may be heat related. The frequency of breaks may need to be increased upon worker recommendation to the HSO. A work/rest schedule will be calculated based on heat stress monitoring results. Monitoring will consist of taking the radial pulse of a worker for 30 seconds immediately after exiting the work area. The frequency of monitoring the radial pulse will be as follows: Ambient Temp. Modified Level D PPE(l) Level C PPE/Level B 90°F or above After 45 min. of work After 15 min. of work 87.5°F -90°F After 60 min. of work After 30 min. of work 82.5°F -87.5°F After 90 min. of work After 60 min. of work 77.5°F -82.5°F After 120 min. of work After 90 min. of work 72.5°F -77.5°F After 150 min. of work After 120 min. of work Tyveks on top of Level D PPE. · B-33 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES m D 0 0 D m I I I I I I I I I g I 0 I D D a u 0 D ff I D I D D a D D D u 3669 (18) If the heart rate exceeds 110 beats per minute at the beginning of the rest period, the next work cycle will be shortened by 1/2 and the rest period will be kept the same. If the heart rate still exceeds 110 beats per minute at the next rest period, the following rest period will be increased by 1/3. The initial rest period will be at least five minutes. Monitoring for heat stress will begin when the ambient temperature reaches or exceeds 70°F when wearing Level C or Level B PPE, or 80°F when wearing Level D PPE and humidity levels are above 50 percent. B-34 CONESTOGA-ROVERS & ASSOCIATES B.19.0 COLD STRESS 3669 (18) With outdoor work in the winter months, the potential exists for hypothermia and frostbite. Protective clothing greatly reduces the possibility of hypothermia in workers. However, personnel will be instructed to wear warm clothing and to stop work to obtain more clothing if they become too cold. Employees must also change into dry clothes if their clothing becomes wet from perspiration or from exposure to precipitation. In cold weather, the potential for frostbite exists, especially in body extremities. Personnel must pay particular attention to hands, feet and any exposed skin when dressing. Personnel will be advised to obtain more clothing if they begin to experience loss of sensation due to cold exposure. Employees will be encouraged to seek heated shelter at regular intervals, depending upon the severity of ambient temperatures. Symptoms of cold stress, including heavy shivering, excessive fatigue, • ii drowsiness, irritability or euphoria will necessitate immediate return to the I heated shelter.
