SJAFB FT-07
INJECTION WELL PERMIT APPLICATION
ATTACHMENTS - A TO F
A)
Site FT-07 is located in the northwest portion of the Base between the contractor storage
yard and skeet range north of Collier Avenue. This unit was the primary fire training
area at the Base and was operational from 1956 to 1992. The area was comprised of a
circular diked pit containing an airplane mockup consisting of large corrugated metal
cylinders.
The pit was underlain by a fuel distribution system through which fuel was transferred
from a nearby above -ground storage tank (AST) to the pit for fire training exercises. The
pit was filled with water prior to addition of the fuel. Approximately 500 gallons of fuel
would then be added, ignited, and extinguished during a typical training exercise. An
underground drainage system allowed liquids to drain from the pit into an underground
oil/water separator (OWS) for discharging into the sanitary sewer system. The OWS
(SWMU 72) is located next to the wash rack directly south of Site FT-07 (Figure 1-2).
Between 1956 and the mid 1970's, contaminated fuels and combustible waste chemicals
were used as fuel at the site. Between 1976 and 1992, only uncontaminated JP-4 was
burned. Protein foams, aqueous film forming foam (AFFF), Halon 1211, and dry
chemicals were used as extinguishing agents. The airplane mockup, AST, and associated
underground piping Were removed and the site was regraded in the late 1990s
Previous remedial activities conducted on site consist of source area soil excavation,
chemical oxidation of source area groundwaterthrough-direct-application bacicfilling of
the excavation, and biosparge system installation and operation.
B)
The regional geologic setting is characterized by unconsolidated surficial deposits 4.0RSH C p••a
overlying bedrock. Bedrock in the region is mapped as the Cretaceous Black Cree O O ••
Ymg PP �� ��'F1S'► '.
Formation. The Geologic Map of North Carolina (North Carolina Geological S ey l -- e t
1985) generally describes this formation as clay, gray to black, containing thin b _ s d S'•
laminae of fine-grained micaceous sand and thick lenses of cross -bedded sand. 1151 2004
rx The subsurface conditions at Site FT-07 are illustrated in Geologic Cross Section A•446.• ..... 04 G.S��v�
i e The locations of the section line are shown on Figure•. C eevliZ
(Figure 5). 3. The subsurface 04,/,
lithology underlying the former burn pit area at Site FT-07, as encountered in monitoring
wells and direct push locations, generally consists of silty sand (SM) to 2 or 3 feet bgs
underlain by stiff sandy or silty clay (CL) to about 9 feet bgs. A layer of loose, medium
to coarse grained sand (SP), or silty sand (SM), with some fine gravel content, is present
to about 13 feet bgs, underlain by dense, fine grained sand (SP) with fine laminations of
clay and organics. The sediment layers encountered from 0 to 13 feet bgs are part of the
Coastal Plain surficial deposits. The clay and organics laminated fine sand (SP) layer

encountered at the bottom of the borings belongs to the Late Cretaceous Black Creek
Aquifer. The stiff silty clay (CL) layer typical of the Black Creek Confining Unit is
believed to be discontinuous at the site (Figure 5).
Depth to groundwater in the shallow, unconfined aquifer is about 7 to 8 feet bgs in the
immediate vicinity of the former training pit. Values of hydraulic conductivity, estimated
from rising head slug tests, range from 1.1 x 10-3 cm/sec to 1.0 x 10-2 cm/sec. The
average linear groundwater flow velocity at the site is calculated to range from 55
feet/year to 431 feet/year. Assuming the average thickness of the surficial unit is 6 feet
(183 cm) with the upper hydraulic conductivity value of 1.0x10-2 cm/s, the
transmissivity of the surficial unit is approximately 1.83 cm2/s. The specific yield, based
on typical surficial deposits, is estimated to be approximately 0.20 (Fetter, Applied
Hydrogeology, 2001).
C)
The injection fluid is potassium permanganate (KMnO4), which is a crystalline solid that
is soluble in water (70 grams per liter [g/L] at 20° C). It is a strong oxidizing agent with
an oxidation potential of 1.7 volts (V), which can be compared to the oxidation potentials
of other common oxidants such as ozone, 2.1 V, hydrogen peroxide, 1.8 V, and chlorine,
1.4 V. It is stable under ordinary conditions of use and storage. See MSDS attached.
D)
Potassium permanganate was chosen for its stability and persistence in the subsurface,
and familiarity with safety procedures. KMnO4 was previously used at this site by
directly applying it to the source area excavation bottom. Groundwater contaminant
concentrations have decreased in this area. The goal of this remedy is to oxidize
contaminants remaining in the groundwater to non -toxic compounds (e.g., ethane, carbon
dioxide).
E)
A high capacity eductor will used to simultaneously dilute and transfer solid KMnO4
crystals to a 500 gallon mixing tank. Once the required mass of solid KMnO4, for one
well, has been transferred to the tank, water will be added until the solution concentration
in the tank reaches 3%. Approximately 400 gallons of 3% KMnO4 solution will be
injected into each of thirty one (31) 1" diameter wells. Twenty-one (21) injection wells
are already installed and currently used for biosparing and ten (10) new wells planned for
installation for KMnO4 injection only. See attached FT-07 Injection Schedule.
F)
f'`rrionitor contaminant degradation and treatment system performance, groundwater
samples will be collected from six monitoring wells (MW-41, MW-42, MW-103, MW-
105, MW-106, and MW-108) approximately two months after each injection event.
Samples will be analyzed in the laboratory for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and
in the field for water quality parameters including temperature, conductivity, pH,
dissolved oxygen (DO), and oxidation/reduction potential (ORP). See attached FT-07
Injection Schedule.
