UIC Permit Application for the Injection of Carbohydrate Reagent
Dreyfus Research Park
Inactive Sites Branch
Dear Evan:
On behalf of Celanese Acetate, LLC, please find the attached application for permit
to construct and use temporary injection wells. These wells will be utilized to inject
a carbohydrate reagent (molasses/whey/potable water) into the saprolite aquifer to
stimulate the naturally -occurring anaerobic bacteria to establish a reducing zone
where reductive dechlorination of chlorinated solvents, primarily tetrachloroethene
(PCE), will be enhanced.
In addition to the information provided on the application form, ARCADIS provides
the following supplemental information:
A. See application form.
B. Although the property is currently owned by Celanese Acetate, LLC, the
property is currently under contract to be sold to Eastlan Properties for
redevelopment. Portions of the property will be rezoned for residential
development. The property where groundwater is impacted with
chlorinated solvents and the adjacent 100-foot buffer zone will not be
redeveloped as residential until clean-up goals have been met.

1) Construction plans and materials: Using a DPT such as a
GeoProbe® 660 unit, an injection probe will be pushed to
approximately 5 feet above the top of partially weathered rock (i.e.,
the transition zone) as determined by the boring logs of adjacent
boreholes. Once the target depth is achieved, the carbohydrate
solution will be injected on a continuous basis as the injection probe
is raised in the borehole. These procedures are more fully described
in Section 4.1 of this Work Plan. On average, approximately 40
gallons of solution will be injected per vertical foot of boring,
however, the actual volume injected will be dependent on site
geology.
2) Operation procedures: In order for the ERD technology to be
successful, a sufficient amount of carbohydrate must be added to the
subsurface to stimulate microbial activity, provide excess organic
carbon, create the zone of anaerobic and reducing conditions, and
propagate the IRZ in the target zone. Prior experience indicates that
a target carbohydrate concentration (measured as Total Organic
Carbon (TOC)) between 25 and 100 parts per million (ppm) in the
groundwater at least 100 days downgradient of the injection transect
is optimum.
Given this target carbohydrate concentration, the anticipated
hydraulic conditions in the injection area, and the initial injection of
a 10 to 20% molasses -whey solution, it is estimated that the total
volume of this solution required to effectively distribute the organic
carbon will vary between approximately 400 and 2,000 gallons per
well per event, with an initial target of 40 gallons per foot of screen
or per vertical foot of DPT. Long term water -table mounding or
other hydraulic effects are unlikely, as water table conditions will
equilibrate quickly following injection events. Injections will not
affect the plume configuration or gradients at the site.
The composition of the molasses -whey solution, injection volume,
and locations may be altered based on field measurements and
analytical results obtained during performance monitoring in order to
optimize anaerobic conditions.
3) Planned injection schedule: The carbohydrate solution will be
introduced through DPT points semi-annually for the first 30 months
(5 injections). The frequency of injections may be altered based on
field measurements and analytical results obtained during
performance monitoring in order to optimize anaerobic conditions.

F. Celanese formerly utilized PCE in a dry cleaning operation in the Stoll
Building located on the property. There is an abandoned floor drain
system in the Stoll Building that drains into a storm water sewer. It is
thought that small spills of dry cleaning fluid were probably washed into
the floor drains that discharged into a tile field downgradient of the Stoll
Building.
G. See Attachment 1, excerpts from the Remedial Investigation Report for
Dreyfus Research Park, Charlotte, North Carolina, prepared by RMT,
Inc., September 1993. Item (5) is supplied by ARCADIS, and is also
included in Attachment 1.
H. See Section 4.2 of the attached Workplan. The following information is
excerpted from the Work Plan:
The molasses -whey injections are anticipated to occur over a period
of approximately four years with quarterly groundwater monitoring
during the active remediation period. The monitoring frequency will
be extended as necessary if it is determined that a longer period of
active injection is required. A total of 16 monitoring wells will be
sampled during the initial monitoring events (see Figure 3-1 in the
attached Workplan). The number of wells sampled in subsequent
events is subject to change based on laboratory results and data
trends.
For the baseline sampling event, samples will be collected and
analyzed for VOCs, redox parameters (nitrate, total/dissolved iron,
sulfate, sulfide), dissolved gases (methane, ethane, and ethene),
alkalinity, and TOC. All groundwater sampling will be performed
using low -flow sampling techniques, except during sampling of
TOC, which may be sampled using a disposable bailer, if desired.

3) Well casing is not applicable to DPT as no permanent casing
will be installed.
4) With the exception of abandoning the borehole, no grout or
bentonite will be used for the temporary DPT points. Portland
cement will be used to abandon the borehole.
5) Screens — Temporary screens will be moved up the borehole at
intervals from approximately 45 to 25 feet below ground surface
for shallow saprolite injection points and from approximately 65
to 45 feet below ground surface for deep saprolite injection
points. No permanent screens will be set during this phase of the
remediation project.
6) See application form. Since the injection points are temporary,
no sample ports will be attached to the well. Monitoring will
occur at nearby existing groundwater monitoring wells.
7) The injection fluid will not be provided by a source well, but
will be potable water mixed with molasses and whey. Details of
the proposed injection fluid can be found in Section 4.1.1 of the
attached Workplan and described in the response to Section 0
below.
K. See Attachment 2.
L. See application form.
M. The injection fluid comprised of potable water, molasses, and whey, will
be shipped to the Site in a tanker truck. Using a pump and the setup
depicted in Attachment 3, the reagent valve will be injected through DPT
points into the saprolite aquifer. As shown on Attachment 3, a pressure
indicator and flow meter will be used to measure injection pressures and
flow rates. These measurements will be recorded on the field form
provided in Attachment 3.
N. See Attachment 4. Per our conversation January 12, 2005, contour
intervals are shown at 10-foot intervals.
O. See Section 4.1.1 of the attached Workplan. The following information
is excerpted from the Work Plan:
1) No underground fluid source will be used for injection.

2) Molasses -whey (carbon source) solution will be introduced into
the subsurface as a dilute solution of potable water, molasses,
and whey (see Appendix A for the Material Safety Data Sheet
[MSDS]). This solution will be mixed by the vendor supplying
the molasses and whey, and will be transported to the site pre-
mixed. Based on ARCADIS' experience with implementation
of this technology at similar sites and the results of the quarterly
monitoring, the initial solution will consist of a 10 to 20 percent
molasses -whey solution (i.e, with a 60:40 molasses/whey ratio).
This concentration is expected to provide sufficient carbon to
enhance and drive anaerobic bacterial activity already occurring
in the aquifer.
Based on field data from the second quarter 2004 sampling
event, pH adjustment may be unnecessary. However, if
conditions should change (i.e. excessive pH drop in monitoring
wells due to the natural formation fatty acids resulting from
biological activity), then sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) or
sodium hydroxide (NaOH) will be added to the carbohydrate
solution. The concentration will be adjusted as needed, to
increase the aquifer's pH buffering capacity against the potential
for accumulation of organic acids from enhanced bioactivity.
The MSDS for NaHCO3 and NaOH are presented in Appendix A
of the Work Plan.
The composition and concentration of the carbohydrate solution
may be adjusted during the design implementation, based on
interpretation of field measurements and analytical results
obtained during performance monitoring.
P. The only applicable permit for this Site is an NPDES permit for a six -
tray air stripper and bag filter. Since the existing extraction system is not
currently being used, the NPDES permit is not being utilized. See
Attachment 5 for a copy of the permit.

SITE HYDROGEOLOGY
This section describes the geology and hydrogeology of the site including geologic materials, ground
water flow, and aquifer characteristics.
Regional geologic maps indicate that the site is located in the Charlotte Belt of the Piedmont
Physiographic Province (Goldsmith and Others, 1988). From regional geologic maps, the rock types
identified near the site include granites, gabbros, and metagabbros. The geology and hydrogeology of
the site has been characterized using the following data collected during the drilling of 57 borings, 24
wells, one piezometer, water level measurements, aquifer tests, and physical analyses. The locations
of these points are shown on Plate 2.
3.1 Site Hydrogeology
The site soils consist of saprolite and residual soils, weathering products of igneous and metamorphic
parent rocks (Stuckey, 1976) and river floodplain deposits. The residual soil consists of silt, clayey silt,
and sandy silt. The residual soil on -site ranges in thickness from 5 to 32 feet. The saprolite consists of
silt, clayey and sandy silt, clayey and silty sand, and clay. The saprolite ranges in thickness from 8 to
67 feet. In Area B, river floodplain deposits (alluvium) from Little Sugar Creek have been deposited on
saprolite. The alluvium consists of clay, clayey silt, silt, clayey and silty sand, and sand. In the eastern
part of Area B, a six- to ten -foot clay layer is prominent in the floodplain deposits. The clay is found
four to six feet below land surface. Thickness of the unconsolidated alluvial sediments encountered
during drilling in the Little Sugar Creek floodplain ranged from 22 to 26 feet.
Depth to rock (as defined by auger refusal) varies from greater than 75 feet below land surface to
surface outcrops. The rock surface is characterized by parallel north to northeast trending ridges and
troughs. Rock types identified on -site are granite, gabbro, and metagabbro. The rock is characterized
by granites which have been intruded by mafics (gabbro and metagabbro). The shape, orientation, and
extent of the mafic intrusions are not known. A map illustrating the estimated rock surface is presented
on Plate 4.

Boring Togs from Phase 1 and Phase 2 RI are included in Appendix B. Cross -sections A -A', B-B', and
C-C' (based boring logs) illustrating site geology are included on Plate 5. Cross-section locations are
shown on Plate 2.
3.2 Ground Water
Water level measurements made at monitoring wells and staff gages on November 15, 1991,
December 19, 1991, February 5, 1992, March 3, 1993, and March 29, 1993. A summary of water level
elevations is shown on Table 3-1. Water levels measured on March 3, 1993 were used to prepare the
water table configuration map shown on Plate 6. Depth to ground water varies from four to thirteen feet
below ground surface on the floodplain of Little Sugar Creek (Area B) and from approximately nine to
forty-six feet below ground surface closer to the facility. As shown on Plate 6, approximate ground
water flow direction is to the southeast towards Little Sugar Creek and to the south toward the
unnamed tributary flowing into Little Sugar Creek.
Evaluation of water level elevations measured in the deep saprolite wells, MW-2A, MW-4A, and MW-
10A, indicates a trend of decreasing hydraulic head in a southeast direction similar to that observed in
water table wells at the site. Evaluation of water levels measured in the rock wells MW-8A, MW-2B,
and MW-3A indicate a trend of decreasing hydraulic head in a southeast direction. The available data
indicates that ground water flow within the deep saprolite and bedrock aquifers is similar to the flow
pattern described in the water table configuration map:
Ground water is present in unconfined conditions in saprolite, alluvium, and in fractured rock. Ground
water has been encountered in perched conditions in Area B due to a clay layer. This clay layer is four
to six feet below land surface, approximately six to ten feet thick, discontinuous, and is present beneath
much of Area B.
Horizontal Hydraulic Gradient. The hydraulic gradient was calculated for the alluvium in Area
B and saprolite for the remainder of the site. Horizontal gradients were calculated using the
following formula:

Where ih = horizontal ground water flow gradient
hW1 = elevation of water level in shallow well 1
hw2 = elevation of water level in shallow well 2
s = horizontal distance between well 1 and well 2
Note: Wells within the same hydrostratigraphic units have been used for horizontal gradient
calculations. Horizontal gradients have been calculated perpendicular to equipotential
lines.
This formula has been adapted from Fetter (1980, p. 126). The calculated gradients for the site
are 0.013 feet per foot for the Area B alluvium and 0.04 feet per foot for the site saprolite.
Hydraulic gradient calculations are shown in Appendix F.
Vertical Hydraulic Gradients. Water levels measured in nested or paired wells were used to
calculate vertical ground water gradients using the following formula:
E3d - E3s
[( E3s - E2s) + E2s] - [(El d 2 E2d) + E2d]
Where is,d = vertical gradient
El = elevation of bottom of bentonite seal
E2 = elevation of bottom of well screen
E3 = elevation of water level
s = shallow well
d = deeper well
This formula has been adapted from Freeze and Cherry (1979, p. 24). The denominator of the
equation represents the adjustment required by the presence of a screened interval rather than
a single water level monitoring point.
Vertical gradients have been calculated for the well pairs (MW-10/10A, MW-8/8A, MW-4/4A,
MW-3/3A, MW-2, MW-2A/2B, and MW-2/2B). The calculated values are shown on Table 3-2.
and the worksheet calculations are included in Appendix D. In six of seven well pairs for the
last two sampling rounds, the vertical gradient is negative or downward. Caution should be
used when applying vertical gradient data which has been obtained from well pairs with
significant differences in the depths to the well screens. Well pairs MW-2/2B, MW-3/3A, and
MW-8/8A have at least 50 feet of separation between the shallow and deep well screens. The

Note: Positive values indicate upward vertical ground water flow and negative values indicate downward vertical ground water flow.
downward gradients calculated for these well pairs may not be applicable to the discussion of
shallow ground water hydraulics. The one well pair with positive gradients is well pair
MW-2A/2B. This well pair has a well screen separation of approximately 37 feet with the
deeper well (MW-2B) screened in rock. The vertical gradient for this well pair is positive
indicating upward flow from rock to saprolite.
The calculated vertical gradient at well pairs MW-3/3A, MW-4/4A, MW-8/8A, and MW-10/10A
represents a downward gradient and is consistent with the hydraulic setting of these well pairs
in an area of recharge. _
The calculated gradient for well pair MW-2/2A (located near Little Sugar Creek) has ranged
from 0.036 feet per foot to -0.085 feet per foot. These vertical gradients indicate both recharge
and discharge of ground water in the vicinity of Little Sugar Creek. Indicating that the stream is
"gaining" stream during wet seasons and a "losing" stream during dry seasons.
Hydraulic Conductivity. Hydraulic conductivity tests were conducted on 24 monitoring wells
and one piezometer. Hydraulic conductivity values were estimated using the Bouwer and Rice

Method (1976 and 1989) and are shown on Table 3-3. Calculations and curves for the tests
are shown in Appendix E. Estimated conductivity values range from 4 x 10.6 cm/sec to 7 x 10-'
cm/sec in rock, 2 x 10-2 to 8 x 10-5 cm/sec in sandy alluvium, and 2 x 10-3 to 5 x 10-6 cm/sec in
saprolite.
Seepage velocities were calculated using the formula published by Freeze and Cherry (1979):
= ki
V
S n
Where VS = seepage velocity
k = hydraulic conductivity
i = hydraulic gradient
n = effective porosity
The calculated average hydraulic gradient ranges from 0.013 to 0.04 feet per foot. The
effective porosity values used in these calculations was 25 percent for the sandy alluvium in
Area B and 20 percent for the more silty -clayey nature of the saprolite. These are typical
values for these soil types (Fetter, 1988). The calculated seepage velocity values for the site
range from approximately 31 and 164 feet per year in the saprolite to 327 feet per year in the
sandy portion of the alluvium. Calculations for seepage velocities are shown in Appendix F.
Physical Characteristics
Ten soil samples, collected from boreholes MW-3A, MW-4A, MW-14, MW-15, MW-18, SB-26,
SB-27, SB-33, SB-34, and SB-36 were sent to the laboratory for physical analysis. Testing
included sieve analyses, Atterberg limits, and falling head permeability. Falling head
permeability tests resulted in a range of average values from 1.7 x 104 cm/sec for saprolite
(silt) collected in Area C to 1.5 x 10-8 cm/sec for alluvial clay collected in Area B. A summary of
the.physical analysis results is shown on Table 3-4. Data sheets are included in Appendix G.

EFFLUENT LIMITATIONS AND MONITORING REQUIREMENTS
SPECIAL CONDITION : .
A. (2.) CHRONIC TOXICITY PERMIT LIMIT (QRTRLY)
The effluent discharge shall at no time exhibit observable inhibition of reproduction or significant mortality to Ceriodaphnia
dubia at an effluent concentration of 4.9 %.
The permit holder shall perform at a minimum, quarterly monitoring using test procedures outlined in the "North Carolina
Ceriodaphnia Chronic Effluent Bioassay Procedure," Revised February 1998, or subsequent versions or "North Carolina
Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions. The tests will be
performed during the months of February, May, August, November. Effluent sampling for this testing shall be
performed at the NPDES permitted final effluent discharge below all treatment processes.
If the test procedure performed as the first test of any single quarter results in a failure or ChV below the permit
limit, then multiple -concentration testing shall be performed at a minimum, in each of the two following months as
described in "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure" (Revised -February 1998) or
subsequent versions.
The chronic value for multiple concentration tests will be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration
having no detectable impairment of reproduction or survival and the lowest concentration that does have a detectable
impairment of reproduction or survival. The definition of "detectable impairment," collection methods, exposure regimes,
and further statistical methods are specified in the "North Carolina Phase II Chronic Whole Effluent Toxicity Test Procedure"
(Revised -February 1998) or subsequent versions.
All toxicity testing results required as part of this permit condition will be entered on the Effluent Discharge Monitoring Form
(MR-1) for the months in which tests were performed, using the parameter:cpde TGP3B for the pass/fail results and THP3B y
for the Chronic Value. Additionally, DWO'Foi-in.AT-3 (original) is'' -to be'$ent to the following address

end of the reporting period for which the report is made.
Test data shall be complete, accurate, include all supporting chemical/physical measurements and all concentration/response
data, and be certified by laboratory supervisor and ORC or approved designate signature. Total residual chlorine of the
effluent toxicity sample must be measured and reported if chlorine is employed for disinfection of the waste stream.
Should there be no discharge of flow from the facility during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, the permittee
will complete the information located at the top of the aquatic toxicity (AT) test form indicating the facility name, permit
number, pipe number, county, and the month/year of the report with the notation of "No Flow" in the comment area of the
form. The report shall be submitted to the Environmental Sciences Branch at the address cited above.
Should the permittee fail to monitor during a month in which toxicity monitoring is required, monitoring will be required
during the following month.
Should any test data from this monitoring requirement or tests performed by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
indicate potential impacts to the receiving stream, this permit may be re -opened and modified to include alternate monitoring
requirements or limits.
NOTE: Failure to achieve test conditions as specified in the cited document, such as minimum control organism
survival, minimum control organism reproduction, and appropriate environmental controls, shall constitute an
invalid test and will require immediate follow-up testing to be completed no later than the last day of the month
following the month of the initial monitoring.

PART II
STANDARD CONDITIONS FOR NPDES PERMITS
SECTION A. DEFINITIONS
1. Permit Issuing Authority: The Director of the Division of Water Quality.
2. DEM or "the Division" Means the Division of Water Quality, Department of Environment and Natural
Resources.
3. EMC Used herein means the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission.
4. Act or "the Act" The Federal Water Pollution Control Act, also known as the Clean Water Act, as amended,
33 USC 1251, et. seq.
5. Mass/Day Measurements
a. The "monthly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during a calendar month on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such month. It is therefore, an arithmetic mean found by
adding the weights of the pollutant found each day of the month and then dividing this sum by the number
of days the tests were reported. The limitation is identified as "Monthly Average" in Part I of the permit.
b. The "weekly average discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during the calendar week (Sunday - Saturday) on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided
by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such week. It is, therefore, an arithmetic
mean found by adding the weights of pollutants found each day of the week and then dividing this sum by
the number of days the tests were reported. This limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" in Part I of the
permit.
c. The "maximum daily discharge" is the total mass (weight) of a pollutant discharged during a calendar day. If
only one sample is taken during any calendar day the weight of pollutant calculated from it is the "maximum
daily discharge." This limitation is identified as "Daily Maximum," in Part I of the permit.
d. The "average annual discharge" is defined as the total mass of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during the calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily
discharges sampled and/or measured during such year. It is, therefore, an arithmetic mean found by adding
the weights of pollutants found each day of the year and then dividing this sum by the number of days the
tests were reported. This limitation is defined as "Annual Average" in Part I of the permit.
6. Concentration Measurement
a. The "average monthly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations
of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar month on which daily discharges are
sampled and measured, divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such
month (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the
concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average monthly count for fecal coliform
bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar month. This limitation
is identified as "Monthly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
Part II
Page 2of11
6. b. The "average weekly concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations
of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar week (Sunday/Saturday) on which daily
discharges are sampled and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured
during such week (arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal
to the concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted
by flow value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average weekly count for fecal
coliform bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar week. This
limitation is identified as "Weekly Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
c. The "maximum daily concentration" is the concentration of a pollutant discharge during a calendar day. If
only one sample is taken during any calendar day the concentration of pollutant calculated from it is the
"Maximum Daily Concentration". It is identified as "Daily Maximum" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the
• permit.
d. The "average annual concentration," other than for fecal coliform bacteria, is the sum of the concentrations
of all daily discharges sampled and/or measured during a calendar year on which daily discharges are sampled
and measured divided by the number of daily discharges sampled and/or measured during such year
(arithmetic mean of the daily concentration values). The daily concentration value is equal to the
concentration of a composite sample or in the case of grab samples is the arithmetic mean (weighted by flow
value) of all the samples collected during that calendar day. The average yearly count for fecal coliform
bacteria is the geometric mean of the counts for samples collected during a calendar year. This limitation is
identified as "Annual Average" under "Other Limits" in Part I of the permit.
e. The "daily average concentration" (for dissolved oxygen) is the minimum allowable amount of dissolved
oxygen required to be available in the effluent prior to discharge averaged over a calendar day. If only one
dissolved oxygen sample is taken over a calendar day, the sample is considered to be the "daily average
concentration" for the discharge. It is identified as "daily average" in the text of Part I.
f. The "quarterly average concentration" is the average of all samples taken over a calendar quarter. It is
identified as "Quarterly Average Limitation" in the text of Part I of the permit.
g. A calendar quarter is defined as one of the following distinct periods: January through March, April through
June, July through September, and October through December.
7. Other Measurements
a. Flow, (MGD): The flow limit expressed in this permit is the 24 hours average flow, averaged monthly. It is
determined as the arithmetic mean of the total daily flows recorded during the calendar month.
b. An "instantaneous flow measurement" is a measure of flow taken at the time of sampling, when both the
sample and flow will be representative of the total discharge.
c. A "continuous flow measurement" is a measure of discharge flow from the facility which occurs continually
without interruption throughout the operating hours of the facility. Flow shall be monitored continually
except for the infrequent times when there may be no flow or for infrequent maintenance activities on the
flow device.
8. Types of Samples
a. Composite Sample: A composite sample shall consist of:
(1) a series of grab samples collected at equal time intervals over a 24 hour period of discharge and
combined proportional to the rate of flow measured at the time of individual sample collection, or
Part II
Page 3of11
8. a. (2) a series of grab samples of equal volume collected over a 24 hour period with the time intervals between
samples determined by a preset number of gallons passing the sampling point. Flow measurement
between sample intervals shall be determined by use of a flow recorder and totalizer, and the present
gallon interval between sample collection fixed at no greater than 1/24 of the expected total daily flow at
the treatment system, or
(3) a single, continuous sample collected over_a 24-hour period proportional to the rate of flow.
In accordance with (1) above, the time interval between influent grab samples shall be no greater than
once per hour, and the time interval between effluent grab samples shall be no greater than once per hour
except at wastewater treatment systems having a .detention time of greater than 24 hours. In such cases,
effluent grab samples may be collected at time intervals evenly spaced over the 24-hour period which are
equal in number of hours to the detention time of the system in number of days. However, in no case
may the time interval between effluent grab samples be greater than six (6) hours nor the number of
samples less than four (4) during a 24-hour sampling period.
b. Grab Sample: Grab samples are individual samples collected over a period of time not exceeding 15 minutes;
the grab sample can be taken manually. Grab samples must be representative of the discharge or the
receiving waters.
9. Calculation of Means
a Arithmetic Mean: The arithmetic mean of any set of values is the summation of the individual values divided
by the number of individual values.
b. Geometric Mean: The geometric mean of any set of values is the Nth root of the product of the individual
values . where N is equal to the numberofindividual values.. The geometric mean is equivalent to the antilog
of.the.arithmetic.mean of the -logarithms- of -the individual values. For -purposes of calculating the geometric
mean, values of zero (0) shall be considered to be one (1).
c. Weighted by Flow Value: Weighted by flow value means the summation of each concentration times its
respective flow divided by the summation of the respective flows.
10. Calendar Day: A calendar day is defined as the period from midnight of one day until midnight of the next day.
However, for purposes of this permit, any consecutive 24-hour period that reasonably represents the calendar day
may be used for sampling.
11. Hazardous Substance: A hazardous substance means any substance designated under 40 CFR Part 116
pursuant to Section 311 of the Clean Water Act.
12. Toxic Pollutant: A toxic pollutant is any pollutant listed as toxic under Section 307(a)(1) of the Clean
Water Act.
SECTION B. GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Duty to Comply

the collection system, which is not a designed or established or operating mode for the facility.
(2) "Severe property damage" means substantial physical damage to property, damage to the treatment
facilities which causes them to become inoperable, or substantial and permanent loss of natural resources
which can reasonably be expected to occur in the absence of a bypass. Severe property damage does not
mean economic loss caused by delays in production.
Part II
Page 7of11
4. b. Bypass not exceeding limitations.
The permittee may allow any bypass to occur which does not cause effluent limitations to be exceeded, but
only if it also is for essential maintenance to assure efficient operation. These bypasses are not subject to the
provisions of Paragraphs c. and d. of this section.
c. Notice
(1) -Anticipated bypass. If the permittee knows in advance of the need for a bypass, it shall submit prior
notice, if possible at least ten days before the date of the .bypass; including an evaluation of the
anticipated quality and affect of the bypass.
(2) Unanticipated bypass. The permitteeshall submit notice of an unanticipated bypass as required in Part II,
E. 6. of this permit. (24 hour notice).
d. Prohibition of Bypass
(1) Bypass is prohibited and the Permit Issuing Authority may take enforcement action against a permittee
for bypass, unless:
(A) Bypass was unavoidable to prevent loss of life, personal injury or severe property damage;
(B) There were no feasible alternatives to the bypass, such as the use of auxiliary treatment facilities,
retention of untreated wastes or maintenance during normal periods of equipment downtime. This
condition is not satisfied if adequate backup equipment should have been installed in the exercise of
reasonable engineering judgment to prevent a bypass which occurred during normal periods of
equipment downtime or preventive maintenance; and
(C) .The permittee .submitted notices as required under Paragraph c. of this section.
(2) The Permit Issuing Authority may. approve an.anticipated bypass, after considering its adverse affects, if
the Permit. Issuing:Authority-determines that: it will meet the -three: conditions listed above in Paragraph
d. (1) of this section.
5. Upsets
a. Definition: "Upset" means an exceptional incident in which there is unintentional and temporary
noncompliance with technology based permit effluent limitations because of factors beyond the reasonable
control of the permittee. An upset does not include noncompliance to the extent caused by operational
error, improperly designed treatment facilities, inadequate treatment facilities, lack of preventive maintenance,
or careless or improper operation.
b. Effect of an upset: An upset constitutes an affirmative defense to an action brought for noncompliance
with such technology based permit effluent limitations if the requirements of paragraph c. of this condition
are met. No determination made during administrative review of claims that noncompliance was caused by
upset, and before an action for noncompliance, is final administrative action subject to judicial review.
c. Conditions necessary for a demonstration of upset: A permittee who wishes to establish the
affirmative defense of upset shall demonstrate, through properly signed, contemporaneous operating logs, or
other relevant evidence that
(1) An upset occurred and that the permittee can identify the cause(s) of the upset;
(2) The permittee facility was at the time being properly operated; and
(3) The permittee submitted notice of the upset as required in Part II, E. 6. (b) (B) of this permit.
(4) The permittee complied with any remedial measures required under Part II, B. 2. of this permit.
d. Burden of proof: In any enforcement proceeding the permittee seeking to establish the occurrence of an
upset has the burden of proof.

1. Introduction
ARCADIS G&M, Inc. (ARCADIS) was retained by Celanese Acetate LLC to design
and implement the full-scale enhanced anaerobic bioremediation design in the shallow
and deep saprolite aquifers for the purpose of treating the concentration of volatile
organic compounds (VOCs) dissolved in groundwater at Dreyfus Research Park
located in Charlotte, North Carolina. The location of the facility and the Site layout are
shown on Figure 1-1.
This work plan describes the In -situ Reactive Zone (IRZTM) technology, the science
behind enhanced reductive dechlorination (ERD), the installation and operation of the
full-scale system, the monitoring program and analytical procedures, and the
evaluation and reporting of the results.
The objectives of the remedial action will be to:
• Establish and maintain an anaerobic and reducing IRZ throughout the targeted
treatment area; and
® Enhance the rate of reductive dechlorination of the chlorinated VOCs in
groundwater.
Performance data collected during operation of the IRZTM will periodically be
compared to baseline data and evaluated against the performance objectives. The long
term goals of the groundwater remedy are to stabilize the plume to prevent further
migration and reduce the mass of chlorinated compounds, such that cleanup can be
achieved throughout the site via natural attenuation.

2. In -Situ Enhanced Reductive Dechlorination
2.1 Technology Description
Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAI -Is) such as tetrachloroethene (PCE) and
trichloroethene (TCE) can be transformed via biologically -mediated reductive
dechlorination (or dehalogenation). Reductive dechlorination involves the sequential
removal of chlorine atoms from the chlorinated hydrocarbon molecule and subsequent
replacement with hydrogen atoms. For PCE, reductive dechlorination proceeds via the
pathway: PCE -4 TCE -i cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-1,2-DCE) 4 vinyl chloride -
ethene. The final end product ethene is a non -chlorinated, non -toxic compound.
Reductive dechlorination reactions occur primarily in anaerobic (or oxygen -deficient)
groundwater. In order to create an anaerobic environment, any oxygen that may be
present in the groundwater system must be consumed by indigenous, aerobic
microorganisms. Indigenous microbes utilize an organic carbon source as the primary
substrate (food) for obtaining energy and utilize electron acceptors such as oxygen for
respiration. In this process, the organic carbon serves as an electron donor and is
oxidized, while the electron acceptor is reduced. Dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate, iron,
manganese, sulfate, and/or carbon dioxide (CO2) are naturally occurring electron
acceptors that participate in these reactions.
Once anaerobic (reducing) conditions have been reached, the indigenous anaerobic
microorganisms become more prominent and reductive dechlorination more
energetically favorable. CAIds such as PCE and TCE can serve as electron acceptors in
this process, undergoing reductive dechlorination via the pathway shown above. In
addition, CAHs may be dechlorinated co -metabolically (the CAI -Is do not participate as
an electron acceptor but are fortuitously degraded).
Research conducted to date has indicated that reductive dechlorination of PCE and
TCE occurs most readily under strongly reducing (sulfate -reducing to methanogenic)
conditions. Therefore, there must be a sufficient source of carbon to support microbial
growth and maintain strongly reducing conditions [typically oxidation reduction
potential (ORP) in the range of -200 millivolts (mV) to -400 mV] within the
groundwater environment. The carbon source may occur naturally within the aquifer,
may be an anthropogenic co -contaminant (as with some aromatic co -contaminants), or
may be a non -contaminant carbon source injected intentionally to create these strongly
reducing conditions.

There are several types of carbon substrates available for ERD, ranging from highly
soluble substrates such as molasses or lactate to slow release/solid compounds such as
vegetable oil or chitin. For this site, a molasses -whey solution will be used as the
electron donor in the full-scale implementation.
ARCADIS' IRZ technology (Patent #6,143,177) relies on enhancing the reductive
dechlorination reactions by supplying an additional organic carbon source (i.e.,
molasses and whey solution) as a substrate to the groundwater system. This expedites
the depletion of oxygen and other electron acceptors, driving the groundwater
environment to more reducing conditions that favor the complete degradation of
CAHs. The carbohydrate solution is injected periodically to create highly reducing
reactive zones in targeted areas through which CAH-impacted groundwater will flow
and undergo treatment. The performance of ERD is measured by monitoring the
relative concentrations of primary CAH contaminants and their degradation
byproducts, as well as other biogeochemical and tracer parameters in groundwater.
2.2 Applicability to the Site
Data collected to date indicate that the ERD technology is likely to be successful in this
geologic system. Based on the size of the plume, the thickness of the aquifer, and the
heterogeneity of Piedmont Formation soils, ERD is the most appropriate technology for
the specific site conditions. Several other technologies have been evaluated, namely
Hydrogen Release Compound (HRCTM) produced by Regenesis and in -well striping
using Accelerated Remediation Technologies (ARTTM) processes. Regenesis
determined that HRCTM would not be effective due to the thickness of the aquifer and
the heterogeneity of the site. Tight soils also eliminated the ARTTM process from use at
this site. Of the technologies evaluated, IRZTM was the only technology proven
effective in achieving adequate delivery of remediation reagents in heterogeneous
formations.
The presence of reductive dechlorination indicators and daughter products [e.g., reduced
ORP and generation of cis-1,2-DCE] reported in both field and laboratory analytical
data during the quarterly sampling indicate that reductive dechlorination of CAHs is
already occurring in portions of the Site. These results are a positive indicator for the
presence of the requisite microbial population and for achieving dechlorination of PCE
and TCE to ethene at the field scale. Further, the limited extent of dechlorination
observed in the field compared to the plume extent is consistent with a carbon -limited
system. The Fourth Quarter 2004 sampling results for PCE and TCE are shown on
Figure 2-1.

The addition of excess organic carbon in the form of a dilute molasses/whey solution
will result in an increase in microbial activity and dechlorination of CAFIs. The addition
of the more complex carbohydrate whey to the solution will provide a lasting source of
carbon to the aquifer. The full-scale ERD implementation is anticipated to be successful
in enhancing reductive dechlorination processes at the Site and achieving the
groundwater clean-up goals established in the Remedial Action Plan Addendum
(ARCADIS, 2000).
There are four primary areas of impact at the Site shown on Figure 2-2. Monitored
Natural Attenuation (MNA) has been established as the selected remedy for the
Meadows and Area 1. ERD followed by MNA has been established as the selected
remedy for Areas 2, 3, and 4. More recent depictions of the groundwater plumes
developed using data from temporary well borings installed in December 2004 show
Areas 1 and 2 as one plume, referred to as "the Meadows" plume and Areas 3 and 4 as
another plume, referred to as "the Stoll" plume. A 100-foot buffer zone has been drawn
around the Meadows and Stoll plumes to be protective of potential soil vapor intrusion
issues and to disallow development in impacted areas until groundwater has been
remediated to levels acceptable and appropriate.

3. Full -Scale ERD Setup
The goal of the full-scale design is to create an anaerobic IRZ in both the shallow and
deep portions of the saprolite aquifer in which the reductive dechlorination of CAHs is
enhanced to promote natural attenuation. The IRZ will be created through the injection
of a molasses -whey solution using a combination of direct push technology (DPT), a
network of injection wells, and conversion of existing site extraction wells into
injection wells. The combination of direct push and fixed well injection methodology
will allow for carbon to be delivered to a wider extent within the aquifer than with only
fixed well injections. Prior to any activities at the Site, an Underground Injection
Control (UIC) permit and well construction permit will be obtained from NCDNER.
Two existing extraction wells in Area 4 (EW-6 and EW-7) will be converted into
injection wells. One existing extraction well (EW-12) in Area 3 may also be converted
into an injection well. During installation, some of the new injection wells may be
sampled for VOCs to better define the plume boundary. The layout of the well field
may be adjusted accordingly to effectively deliver solution throughout the plume.
Performance of the system will be based on: (1) achieving the desired distribution of
carbohydrate solution; (2) the establishment of an anaerobic zone; (3) the reduction of
primary contaminants such that cleanup can be achieved throughout the Site via natural
attenuation; and (4) the production and degradation of daughter products in the nearby
monitoring wells.
3.1 Site Clearing
Prior to installation of injection wells, portions of the Site will need to be cleared to
provide access for the drill rigs and ancillary equipment. Site clearing is expected to be
limited, and will not require a grading permit.
3.2 Injection via Direct Push Technology
The ERD technology relies on an active delivery method, whereby additional
injections and the natural processes of advection and dispersion also help to propagate
and maintain the IRZ away from the injection points. In water units with slow
groundwater velocities, such as the Piedmont Formation, the processes of advection
will require a long time to transport the organic carbon from the injection wells to the
impacted area of the aquifer resulting in longer remediation time frames. To expedite
the time required for the organic carbon solution to reach the impacted groundwater
and achieve the successful distribution of the carbon solution in the water unit,

ARCADIS
ARCADIS proposes to conduct injections using a dense network of direct push points.
The DPT injections will be closely spaced to distribute the carbohydrate solution in
both the shallow and deep portions of the surficial water unit in a short period of time.
Initially, 100 direct push injections will be performed in Area 4, 12 in Area 3, and 30 in
Area 2. Delivering carbon straight to the impacted portions of the aquifer and not
relying on advective flow of groundwater to distribute the carbon, will expedite the
reductive dechlorination process. Design of the subsequent phases of injections will be
based on the monitoring results obtained during Phase 1. It is anticipated that a second
phase of injections using DPT will be performed approximately 6 months after the
initial injections. Subsequent injections (frequency and timing) will be based on
groundwater analytical results. The configuration of injection points for Phase 1 is
shown on Figure 2-2. Performance monitoring samples will be collected from
locations selected to optimize the ERD network.
Using a DPT such as a GeoProbe® 660 unit, an injection probe will be pushed to
approximately 5 feet above the top of partially weathered rock (i.e., the transition zone)
as determined by the boring logs of adjacent boreholes. Once the target depth is
achieved, the carbohydrate solution will be injected on a continuous basis as the
injection probe is raised in the borehole. These procedures are more fully described in
section 4.1 of this Work Plan. On average, approximately 40 gallons of solution will
be injected per vertical foot of boring, however, the actual volume injected will be
dependent on site geology.
3.3 Hydraulic Fracturing in Saprolite
Due to the tightness and low permeability observed in saprolitic geology, hydraulic
fracturing will be performed in the new injection wells in Area 4 in order to increase
the aquifer permeability and improve carbohydrate solution distribution in the
treatment area. The shallow injection wells will have one fracture and the deep
injection wells will have two fractures. Hydraulic fracturing will be utilized in
addition to DPT points in areas with higher mass (i.e., hot spots) and greater aquifer
thickness where more frequent injections may be desirable. The actual number of
hydraulic fractures installed will depend on the most recent analytical data from
quarterly sampling preceding the DPT injections
Two fractures will be prepared at each deep injection well location. To accomplish
this, an 8-inch borehole will be drilled to the top of rock. If necessary, a polyvinyl
chloride (PVC) surface casing will be installed to prevent borehole collapse at the
surface, or alternately a string of augers may be left in place during fracturing

activities. A packer assembly will be placed in the borehole. The packers are spaced
approximately 10 feet apart, and the lower packer will be set about 5 feet above the top
of bedrock. In cases where partially weathered rock (PWR) or transition zone is
observed, the lower packer will be set 5 feet above the PWR. Both packers will be
inflated, effectively segregating the target zone for the fracture. Using high pressure
water, a kerf will be made in the exposed boring section. Once the kerf is made 360°
around the borehole, a slurry of guar, sand, and an enzyme breaker (to degrade the guar
within a few days) is injected under pressure up to 60 pounds per square inch (psi).
This procedure creates a sand -filled fracture in the saprolite matrix approximately 1
centimeter (cm) thick, depending on the depth, soil conditions, and pressure. Once the
fracture is complete, the packers are deflated and raised approximately 20 feet in the
borehole, depending on the thickness of the saprolite aquifer at each specific location.
The procedure is repeated to create a second fracture in the shallow portion of the
saprolite aquifer.
All of the injection wells will be located on Site. To address the off -site impact, a line
of injection wells and DPT injection points will be installed inside the property line
behind the homes on Edgewater Drive. In order to prevent the discharge of organic
carbon to Tributary #6 of Little Sugar Creek, injection wells will not be installed
closer than 150 feet upgradient of the creek.
3.4 Saprolite Injection Well Construction
The proposed ERD system includes installation of up to 14 new shallow injection wells
and two deep injection wells in Area 4 and three new shallow injection wells in Area 3
(Figure 2-2). The actual number of wells installed will depend on the most recent
analytical data from quarterly sampling preceding the DPT injections. All saprolite
injection wells will be installed to intercept the sand fractures created as indicated in
Section 3.3. Both deep and shallow injection wells will be constructed in the same
manner. The boreholes will be installed using hollow -stern auger (HSA) drilling.
Utilizing the same borehole as the hydraulic fractures, the borehole will be cleaned out
and used to construct a single injection well in areas where the top of bedrock is
relatively shallow and a pair of injection wells in areas where the top of rock is
considerably deeper. Shallow saprolite wells are expected to be 45 feet below ground
surface (bgs) on average. Deep saprolite wells are expected to be 75 feet bgs
tenninating approximately 5 feet above the top of the transition zone (i.e., partially
weathered rock), or at the top of bedrock in areas where the transition zone is not
apparent. The wells will be separated with a conservative sand pack and bentonite seal
with a minimum thickness of 2 feet. Well materials will be 2-inch diameter PVC
screen with 0.010-inch wire wound slots (or Circumslot) and PVC casing. The actual

screen length will depend on the aquifer thickness but will not exceed 20 feet in length.
Typical well construction details for the injection wells are shown on Figure 3-2. The
radius of influence for each injection well is projected to be 25 to 60 feet or greater in
areas that are fractured based on the anticipated fracture radius. .
Injection wells installed in regularly mowed grassy areas will be completed within a
10-inch flush -mounted vault. Injection wells installed in the wooded areas will be
completed with either a flush -mount vault or a stand-up protective casing, as
appropriate.
3.5 Bedrock Injection Well Construction
The installation of bedrock injection wells is believed to be unnecessary. The ERD
system will take advantage of the natural downward hydraulic gradient; injections in
the deep saprolite should have a fortuitous effect on the remediation of the bedrock
aquifer. During the course of injections in the deep portion of the saprolite aquifer,
bedrock groundwater quality will be monitored for any changes due to the ERD
activities in the saprolite. If it is determined that injection activities in the deep
saprolite are not positively addressing bedrock contamination within the treatment area,
then the possibility of injecting the molasses -whey solution directly into bedrock wells
will be evaluated. Monitoring will be performed as described in Section 4.2 at select
monitoring wells as shown on Figures 2-2 and 3-1.

ARCADIS
4. Full -Scale ERD Operation
Baseline groundwater monitoring will be performed on select monitoring wells prior to
the addition of carbohydrate solution. Upon approval of the UIC permit, the
carbohydrate solution will be injected as described below.
Injection of a dilute molasses -whey solution into the subsurface will be conducted on a
scheduled batch -feed basis and adjusted as necessary based on the periodic monitoring
of groundwater quality. The use of the proposed injection system provides for
significant flexibility in terms of injection strategy. In particular, the volumes of
molasses -whey solution injected in different areas of the plume can be adjusted based
on varying demands such as higher contaminant levels or competing electron acceptor
concentrations in each area, resulting in a cost-effective use of electron donor. These
activities are described in the following sections.
4.1 Molasses -Whey Injection
The composition of the molasses -whey solution, the solution injection (or feed) rate,
and the injection procedures are discussed below.
4.1.1 Composition of Molasses -Whey Feed Solution
Molasses -whey (carbon source) will be introduced into the subsurface as a dilute
solution of water, molasses, and whey (see Appendix A for the Material Safety Data
Sheet [MSDS]). Based on ARCADIS' experience with implementation of this
technology at similar sites and the results of the quarterly monitoring, the initial
solution will consist of a 10 to 20 percent molasses -whey solution (i.e, with a 60:40
molasses/whey ratio). This concentration is expected to provide sufficient carbon to
enhance and drive anaerobic bacterial activity already occurring in the aquifer.
Based on field data from the second quarter 2004 sampling event, pH adjustment may
be unnecessary. However, if conditions should change (i.e. excessive pH drop in
monitoring wells due to the natural formation fatty acids resulting from biological
activity), then sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) will be
added to the carbohydrate solution. The concentration will be adjusted as needed, to
increase the aquifer's pH buffering capacity against the potential for accumulation of
organic acids from enhanced bioactivity. The MSDS for NaHCO3 and NaOH are
presented in Appendix A.

ARCAD S
The composition and concentration of the carbohydrate solution may be adjusted
during the design implementation, based on interpretation of field measurements and
analytical results obtained during performance monitoring.
4.1.2 Molasses -Whey Solution Injection Rate and Frequency
In order for the ERD technology to be successful, a sufficient amount of carbohydrate
must be added to the subsurface to stimulate microbial activity, provide excess organic
carbon, create the zone of anaerobic and reducing conditions, and propagate the IRZ in
the target zone. Prior experience indicates that a target carbohydrate concentration
(measured as Total Organic Carbon (TOC)) between 25 and 100 parts per million
(ppm) in the groundwater at least 100 days downgradient of the injection transect is
optimum.
Given this target carbohydrate concentration, the anticipated hydraulic conditions in
the injection area, and the initial injection of a 10 to 20% molasses -whey solution, it is
estimated that the total volume of this solution required to effectively distribute the
organic carbon will vary between approximately 400 and 2,000 gallons per well per
event, with an initial target of 40 gallons per foot of screen or per vertical foot of DPT.
Long Term water -table mounding or other hydraulic effects are unlikely, as water table
conditions will equilibrate quickly following injection events. Injections will not affect
the plume configuration or gradients at the site. The carbohydrate solution will be
introduced through DPT points semi-annually for the first 30 months (5 injections).
Solution will be introduced through permanent injection wells quarterly to semi-
annually for 24 months (4 to 8 injections) starting during the second DPT injection
event. The frequency of injection into hydraulic fracture wells will depend upon
groundwater analytical data.
The composition of the molasses -whey solution and injection volume, frequency, and
locations may be altered based on field measurements and analytical results obtained
during performance monitoring in order to optimize anaerobic conditions.
4.1.3 Molasses -Whey Injection Procedures
Prior to each injection event, the carbohydrate solution will be delivered to the Site pre-
mixed to the dilution specifications ordered by the engineer, and may include
amendment with NaOH or NaHCO3 as a buffer. The solution will be injected into
DPT points or the injection wells using a mobile manifold injection system. The
mobile manifold system will be capable of injecting into as many as four wells at the
same time. The mobile manifold system will consist of a manifold, a secondary

storage solution tank, and an injection pump all mounted on a mobile, double axle
trailer. The solution delivered using tankers will be pressure -fed into each injection
well from the mobile injection unit. The solution will be delivered to the direct push
injection points utilizing a transfer pump and a portable polyethylene tank. Injection
pressures are expected to be below 50 psi.
A field log will be maintained to record the solution composition, the volume of solution
introduced into each injection well, the length of time required for injection, and the
injection pressure (Table 4-1).
4.2 Groundwater Monitoring
4.2.1 Monitoring Strategy
Groundwater monitoring is used to evaluate the progress of the full-scale ERD remedy
for reducing CAH concentrations. The molasses -whey injections are anticipated to
occur over a period of approximately four years with quarterly groundwater monitoring
during the active remediation period. The monitoring frequency will be extended as
necessary if it is determined that a longer period of active injection is required. These
activities are described below.
Once the plume is stabilized and the mass of chlorinated compounds is reduced such
that cleanup can be achieved throughout the site via natural attenuation, site -wide
groundwater will be monitored quarterly until performance monitoring has
demonstrated the cleanup standards continue to be met after a period of one year. A
total of 16 monitoring wells will be sampled during the initial monitoring events. The
number of wells sampled in subsequent events is subject to change based on laboratory
results and data trends. The analytical program is presented in Table 4-3. This is
subject to change based on the results collected during the carbohydrate injection
period. Any changes made to the sampling and analysis plan will be discussed in semi-
annual progress reports.
4.2.2 Performance Monitoring
Performance of ERD is evaluated through the monitoring of several analytes at
locations throughout the plume and comparison of these results to the results of the
baseline sampling event. Specifically, analytes include electron donor distribution
parameters, redox parameters, contaminants and degradation products, and water
quality parameters.

Baseline sampling and analysis will be conducted at the following wells (Figure 3-1):
AREA 2: monitoring wells MW-5, MW-6, MW-7 and temporary well TW14;
AREA 3: former extraction well EW-13 and monitoring well MW-15; and,
AREA 4: piezometers PZ-1, PZ-2, and PZ-4; temporary wells TWO9, TW11, and
TW16; former extraction wells EW-15 and RW-1; and monitoring wells
MW-8, MW-8A, MW-10, MW-10A, MW-18, and MW-24.
For the baseline sampling event, samples will be collected from all of the above wells
and analyzed for VOCs, redox parameters (nitrate, total/dissolved iron, sulfate,
sulfide), dissolved gases (methane, ethane, and ethene), alkalinity, and TOC. All
groundwater sampling will be performed using low -flow sampling techniques, except
during sampling of TOC, which may be sampled using a disposable bailer, if desired.
During the injection period, performance monitoring will be performed as described on
Table 4-2 from the wells listed above and shown in Figure 3-1. Table 4-3 specifies the
method used to analyze each parameter. In addition, during the initial period of
molasses -whey injections, more frequent monitoring of TOC and pH will be performed
in order to determine that the molasses -whey is distributed throughout the entire
treatment zone as intended by the design and to document changes in redox conditions
in response to injections.
Achieving the desired distribution of carbohydrates in the aquifer is key to stimulating
reductive dechlorination throughout the plume. The parameter that is used to evaluate
the distribution of electron donor is TOC, which will be measured in a fixed lab (Table
4-3). In addition, water level monitoring is performed in the field to verify
groundwater flow directions.
As stated above, reductive dechlorination of CAHs requires the presence of strongly
reducing (i.e., sulfate -reducing to methanogenic) conditions. The monitoring program
includes the following analytes in order to evaluate changes in redox conditions as a
result of molasses -whey injection: nitrate, total/dissolved iron, sulfate, sulfide, and
methane,. These parameters are measured in a fixed lab.
Changes in the relative concentrations of primary contaminants and degradation
products are used to evaluate the effect of molasses -whey injection on reductive
dechlorination. The analytes include the primary contaminants (PCE and TCE),
chlorinated degradation products (DCE isomers and vinyl chloride), final non -
chlorinated degradation products (ethene and ethane). These parameters are all

Potential Health Effects
Inhalation:
Severe irritant. Effects from inhalation of dust or mist vary from mild irritation to serious
damage of the upper respiratory tract, depending on severity of exposure. Symptoms may
include sneezing, sore throat or runny nose. Severe pneumonitis may occur.
Ingestion:
Corrosive! Swallowing may cause severe burns of mouth, throat, and stomach. Severe
scarring of tissue and death may result. Symptoms may include bleeding, vomiting,
diarrhea, fall in blood pressure. Damage may appears days after exposure.
Skin Contact:
Corrosive! Contact with skin can cause irritation or severe bums and scarring with greater
exposures.
Eye Contact:
Corrosive! Causes irritation of eyes, and with greater exposures it can cause burns that may
result in permanent impairment of vision, even blindness.
Chronic Exposure:
Prolonged contact with dilute solutions or dust has a destructive effect upon tissue.
Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions:
Persons with pre-existing skin disorders or eye problems or impaired respiratory function
may be more susceptible to the effects of the substance.
4. First Aid Measures
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen. Call a physician.
Ingestion:
DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Give large quantities of water or milk if available. Never
give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Skin Contact:
Immediately flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing
http://www.mallchem.com/msds/englishhtml/s4034.htm 1/12/2005
SODIUM HYDROXIDE Page 3 of 8
contaminated clothing and shoes. Call a physician, immediately. Wash clothing before
reuse.
Eye Contact:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting lower and upper
eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention immediately.
Note to Physician:
Perform endoscopy in all cases of suspected sodium hydroxide ingestion. In cases of severe
esophageal corrosion, the use of therapeutic doses of steroids should be considered. General
supportive measures with continual monitoring of gas exchange, acid -base balance,
electrolytes, and fluid intake are also required.
5. Fire Fighting Measures
Fire:
Not considered to be a fire hazard. Hot or molten material can react violently with water.
Can react with certain metals, such as aluminum, to generate flammable hydrogen gas.
Explosion:
Not considered to be an explosion hazard.
Fire Extinguishing Media:
Use any means suitable for extinguishing surrounding fire. Adding water to caustic solution
generates large amounts of heat.
Special Information:
In the event of a fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved self-contained
breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or other positive
pressure mode.
6. Accidental Release Measures
Ventilate area of leak or spill. Keep unnecessary and unprotected people away from area of
spill. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment as specified in Section 8. Spills: Pick
up and place in.a suitable container for reclamation or disposal, using a method that does
not generate dust. Do not flush caustic residues to the sewer. Residues from spills can be
diluted with water, neutralized with dilute acid such as acetic, hydrochloric or sulfuric.
Absorb neutralized caustic residue on clay, vermiculite or other inert substance and package
in a suitable container for disposal.
US Regulations (CERCLA) require reporting spills and releases to soil, water and air in
excess of reportable quantities. The toll free number for the US Coast Guard National
Response Center is (800) 424-8802.
7. Handling and Storage
http://www.mallchem.comlmsds/englishhtml/s4034.htm 1/12/2005
SODIUM HYDROXIDE
Page 4 of 8
Keep in a tightly closed container. Protect from physical damage. Store in a cool, dry,
ventilated area away from sources of heat, moisture and incompatibilities. Always add the
caustic to water while stirring; never the reverse. Containers of this material may be
hazardous when empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all
warnings and precautions listed for the product. Do not store with aluminum or magnesium.
Do not mix with acids or organic materials.
8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protectio
Airborne Exposure Limits:
- OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL):
2 mg/m3 Ceiling
- ACGIH Threshold Limit Value (TLV):
2 mg/m3 Ceiling
Ventilation System:
A system of local and/or general exhaust is recommended to keep employee exposures
below the Airborne Exposure Limits. Local exhaust ventilation is generally preferred
because it can control the emissions of the contaminant at its source, preventing dispersion
of it into the general work area. Please refer to the ACGIH document, Industrial
Ventilation, A Manual of Recommended Practices, most recent edition, for details.
Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved):
If the exposure limit is exceeded and engineering controls are not feasible, a half facepiece
particulate respirator (NIOSH type N95 or better filters) may be worn for up to ten times the
exposure limit or the maximum use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory
agency or respirator supplier, whichever is lowest.. A full -face piece particulate respirator
(NIOSH type N100 filters) may be worn up to 50 times the exposure limit, or the maximum
use concentration specified by the appropriate regulatory agency, or respirator supplier,
whichever is lowest. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids, glycerine, etc.) are
present, use a NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
levels are not known, use a full-facepiece positive -pressure, air -supplied respirator.
WARNING: Air -purifying respirators do not protect workers in oxygen -deficient
atmospheres.
Skin Protection:
Wear impervious protective clothing, including boots, gloves, lab coat, apron or coveralls,
as appropriate, to prevent skin contact.
Eye Protection:
Use chemical safety goggles and/or a full face shield where splashing is possible. Maintain
eye wash fountain and quick -drench facilities in work area.

10. Stability and Reactivity
Stability:
Stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. Very hygroscopic. Can slowly pick up
moisture from air and react with carbon dioxide from air to form sodium carbonate.
Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Sodium oxide. Decomposition by reaction with certain metals releases flammable and
explosive hydrogen gas.
Hazardous Polymerization:
Will not occur.
Incompatibilities:
Sodium hydroxide in contact with acids and organic halogen compounds, especially
trichloroethylene, may causes violent reactions. Contact with nitromethane and other similar
nitro compounds causes formation of shock -sensitive salts. Contact with metals such as
aluminum, magnesium, tin, and zinc cause formation of flammable hydrogen gas. Sodium
hydroxide, even in fairly dilute solution, reacts readily with various sugars to produce
carbon monoxide. Precautions should be taken including monitoring the tank atmosphere
for carbon monoxide to ensure safety of personnel before vessel entry.
Conditions to Avoid:
Moisture, dusting and incompatibles.
