I have reviewed the subject UIC application and visited the site. The information in the
application package is accurate and the issuance of the permit is recommended. The only
modification I would recommend is to increase the amount of ORC injection at the
northeast corner - the area still has highly contaminated soil remaining at place, by
reducing the injection grid size at this area. If you have any questions about the site,
please do not hesitate to call me at (828) 296-4682.

MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
E. INJECTION PROCEDURE
Provide a detailed description of all planned activities relating to the proposed injection
facility including but not limited to:
(1) construction plans and materials;
(2) operation procedures; and
(3) a planned injection schedule.
Activities related to the storage and distribution of petroleum products at the Skyland
Distributing facility have impacted the soil and ground water beneath the site. The results
of previous ground -water monitoring events at the site indicate that concentrations of
petroleum compounds in collected ground -water samples have declined since February
2002. This consistent decline in contaminant concentrations is largely attributable to
degradation of dissolved petroleum compounds by aerobic (oxygen -demanding)
microorganisms native to soil at the site. Following the release of contaminants on the
subject property, native microorganisms in the aquifer have adapted to growth on
contaminants. The microorganisms are aerobic and have the ability to break down the
contaminants in the soil and ground water. The growth of the microbial population has
been largely limited by the availability of oxygen.
Skyland Distributing intends to accelerate the rate of biodegradation of petroleum
compounds in ground water by injection of Oxygen Release Compound (ORC)TM into the
saturated zone. Injection of ORCTM will increase the supply of oxygen (the limiting
factor for aerobic microbes) to the contaminated aquifer. ORCTM is a commercially
available, environmentally -safe product marketed for remedial applications by Regenesis.
ORCTM is a formulation of magnesium peroxide (MgO2) that is intercalated with food
grade phosphate ions to facilitate oxygen release into the saturated zone at a controlled
rate. The product has been shown to promote aerobic biological degradation of petroleum
compounds such as benzene, naphthalene, and ethylbenzene under pilot- and full-scale
conditions. Drinking water wells or other receptors are not located in the vicinity of the
proposed injection area.
Ground -water sampling was conducted in November 2003 to determine initial chemical
parameters (total petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations, biological and chemical oxygen
demand, and ferrous iron and manganese concentrations) in the contaminated aquifer.
These parameters and aquifer characteristics were entered into a web -based software
application provided by Regenesis (www.regenesis.com) to evaluate the volume of
ORCTM and density of injection points necessary to distribute the compound throughout
the contaminant plume. A total of 45 injection points, on an approximate 9-foot grid
pattern, will be advanced to a depth below the water table (approximately 11 feet bgs) in
accessible areas of the ground -water contamination plume utilizing direct push boring
equipment. The injection borings will be advanced using 1.75-inch diameter, expendable
conical points composed of steel or aluminum. Upon reaching a depth of 11 feet bgs, the
conical points will be detached and expended at the bottom of the borings.
An ORCTM slurry mixture will be generated in accordance with manufacturer's
recommendations and will then be injected through the external probe rods into the
subsurface using a pump and hose system attached to the direct push boring equipment.
The probe rods will be retrieved from the hole as the slurry is injected. The ORCTM
injection slurry will be brought up to a depth of approximately 1.5 feet below ground
2 of 12
Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
surface (bgs) in the borings, with one foot of hydrated bentonite to 0.5 feet bgs, and
asphalt pavement patch to surface. Based on the number and depth of injection points, the
soil conditions, the contaminant concentrations, and the equipment being used, we
estimate 930 pounds of ORCTM will be required.
We anticipate that slurry injection and installation and sealing of the injection points will
be completed within three days.
F. DESCRIPTION OF SHE
Provide a brief description of the contamination incident and the incident number
assigned by the Division of Water Quality staff in the Department's Regional Office:
Soil contamination was initially identified near a diesel product line and fuel dispenser
during a limited subsurface investigation conducted in November 2001. Two 10,000-
gallon diesel aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) and one 5,000-gallon gasoline AST and
associated piping and dispensers were removed from the site on January 23, 2002 (Figure
2). On January 25 and 26, 2002, 39 tons of contaminated soil was excavated from areas
of petroleum staining near the former locations of the diesel fuel dispenser and diesel
AST where the product line entered the subsurface. Soil was also removed from the
former location of the gasoline dispenser and the underground product lines.
Based on evidence of soil contamination in the former area of the fuel dispensers and
underground product lines, an additional 600 cubic yards of contaminated soil was
excavated to a depth of five to six feet below ground surface (bgs) on February 11, 2002.
Approximately one to two feet of clean fill soil was placed in the bottom of the
excavation, and approximately one foot of Number 57 washed stone was placed over the
compacted soil. In anticipation of possible future remedial action at the site, an
infiltration gallery consisting of one-inclr diameter PVC pipe was placed over the washed
stone at a depth of two to three feet bgs (Figure 3). The gallery was covered with one foot
of Number 57 washed stone and a Layerr of filter fabric. Clean soil was placed on top of
the washed stone and compacted with a vibrating sheepsfoot roller to fill the remainder of
the excavation. The disturbed area was subsequently paved by Skyland Distributing.
Confirmation soil samples collected from the sidewalls of the excavation indicated that
TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO concentrations exceeded the NCDENR reportable level in soil
located at the base (below surficial ground water) and north and northeast of the
excavation (Figure 2). Additional soil excavation was not feasible because of the
proximity of a building, Weston Drive, and the subject property boundary (and off -site
building). Following installation of one recovery well and three monitoring wells at the
site, volatile and semi -volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs) were detected in
ground -water samples collected from the area of the excavation and downgradient of the
excavation.
During an April 2003 ground -water monitoring event, two volatile and one semi -volatile
organic compounds (VOCs and SVOC) were detected at concentrations that exceeded
NCAC 2L Standards in ground -water samples collected from the two wells (MW-01 and
RW-01) located at the former excavation area. Two VOCs were identified in samples
3of12
Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
collected from downgradient monitoring wells (MW-02 and MW-03) at concentrations
below the NCAC 2L Standard (Figure 4). SVOCs were not detected in samples collected
from the downgradient monitoring wells. These results indicate that concentrations of
VOCs and SVOCs above the NCAC 2L Standards extend less than 65 feet downgradient
of the source area.
On January 20, 2004, NCDENR granted approval for a Corrective Action Plan, dated
December 16, 2003, which recommended that low -flow air injection into vadose zone
soils be combined with injection of Oxygen Release CompoundTM (ORC) into surficial
ground water for remediation of soil and ground -water contamination at the site.
Incident Number assigned by NCDENR-DWQ: 86033.
G. HYDROGEOLOGIC DESCRIPTION
SECTION (G) MUST BE ORIGINALLY SEALED AND SIGNED BY A
LICENSED GEOLOGIST
Provide a hydrogeologic description, soils description, and cross section of the subsurface
to a depth that included the known or projected depth of contamination. The number of
borings shall be sufficient to determine the following:
(1) the regional geologic setting;
(2) significant changes in lithology;
(3) the hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone;
(4) the depth to the mean seasonal high water table; and
(5) a determination of transmissivity and specific yield of the aquifer to be used for
injection (showing calculations).
I have prepared the narrative contents in the following hydrogeologic description from a review
of the pertinent geologic / hydrogeologic information.
The following sections describe the regional geologic conditions and the methods employed
to obtain physical data that support our discussion of the local geologic and environmental
conditions.

Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
G.1 Topographic Conditions
Using the 1965 U.S.G.S. Topographic Map of the Skyland, NC Quadrangle, as shown on
Figure 1, the topography in the vicinity of the site is relatively flat. The property is
located at an approximate elevation of 2,240 feet NGVD. The general area surrounding
the site appears to slope downward to the west-southwest towards an unnamed tributary,
which is located approximately 500 feet west of the site. The tributary flows northwest
into Lake Julian, which is located approximately 3,500 feet northwest of the site.
G.2 Geology
G.2.1 Regional Geology
The site is located in the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province. Based on a review of the
Geologic Map of North Carolina, dated 1985, the subject property is underlain by rocks
consisting primarily of muscovite-biotite gneiss. The bedrock in this region is
structurally complex and consists of crystalline rock that has been faulted and contorted
by past tectonic movements. The rock has weathered to residual soils which form the
mantle for the hillsides and hilltops. The typical residual soil profile in areas not
disturbed by erosion or construction -related activities consists of clayey soils near the
surface where weathering is more advanced and underlying sandy silt and silty sand.
G.2.2 Site Geology
On the basis of previous records related to drilling activities at the site, the following
interpretation of the site geology was developed.
On May 15, 2002, Altamont Environmental, Inc. advanced two soil borings and installed
two ground -water monitoring wells (MW-02 and MW-03). The wells are located
approximately 70 feet and 165 feet hydraulically downgradient of the source area (Figure 4).
According to the Well Construction Records, soil encountered during advancement of the
borings consisted of tan silty clay from ground surface to five feet below ground surface
(bgs) and grey silt from five feet to thirteen feet bgs. On November 3, 2003, MACIEC
advanced two exploratory hand -auger borings approximately 15 feet east of the former
excavation area. Soil encountered during advancement of the hand -auger borings consisted
of grey, very micaceous, sandy silt from ground surface to 10 feet bgs.
On October 29, 2003, ground water was encountered at approximately 1 to 4 feet bgs in
monitoring wells MW-01, MW-02, and MW-03. Copies of the well construction records for
wells MW-02 and MW-03 are provided in Appendix A.
HYDROGEOLOGIC INVESTIGATION
The hydraulic conductivity is a constant of proportionality relating to the ease with which a
fluid passes through a porous medium. Based on MACTEC's experience at sites with
similar soil characteristics (i.e., micaceous sandy silts) in the Blue Ridge region, we
estimate the hydraulic conductivity at the site to be approximately 2.0 to 2.5 ft/day.
5 of 12
Skyland Distributing Facility— 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
In addition to hydraulic conductivity (k), the rate of groundwater movement (v) at the site is
a function of hydraulic gradients (i) and the effective porosity (ne) of site soils, as indicated
by the equation v = ki/ne. Based on published values for similar soils, the effective porosity
of the soil at the site is estimated to be about 30 percent (Driscoll, 1986). The hydraulic
conductivity of the soil estimated from previous investigations in the area is 2.0 to 2.5
feet/day. Based on the hydraulic conductivity range, a hydraulic gradient of 0.03 feet/foot
(between wells MW-01 and MW-03), and an average effective porosity of 0.30, the linear
velocity of ground water in soil at this site is estimated to range between 73.0 and 913 feet
per year. .
G3 Transmissivity and Specific Yield
Transmissivity is the measure of the amount of water that can be transmitted horizontally by
the full saturated thickness of the aquifer under a hydraulic gradient of 1.
Transmissivity (7) is calculated as the product of the hydraulic conductivity (K) and the
saturated thickness of the aquifer (b). In this instance, hydraulic conductivity has been
estimated to range from 2.0 to 2.5 ft/day. Aquifer thickness is typically .estimated by
determining either the maximum vertical extent of ground -water contamination or the depth
to bedrock or other impervious soil layer. However, the shallow depth (total depths of 10 to
14 feet bgs) of monitoring wells and absence of additional information regarding subsurface
conditions at the site precluded direct measurement of aquifer thickness. Based on
MACTEC's experience at other sites in the area, we estimate the depth of bedrock at the site
to be between 40 and 50 feet bgs. Based on a ground -water depth of 2.97 feet that was
measured in well MW-01 in October 2003, the total saturated thickness of the aquifer is
estimated to be between 37 and 47 feet.
K = 2.0 feet/day
K= 2.5 feet/day
b = 37 feet
b=47feet
T=bK
T = 37 ft x 2.0 ft/day = 74.0 ft2/day
T,,.. = 47 ft x 2.5 ft/day = 117.5 ft2/day
Specific yield is the ratio of the volume of water that drains from a saturated rock owing to
the attraction of gravity to the total volume of the rock (Fetter, 1988). Published values of
specific yield for soil types indicate that the average specific yield for silty soils is 18 %.
H. MONITORING PROCEDURE
Provide plans for proposed location and construction details of ground -water monitoring
well network, including a schedule for sampling and analytical methods. Include any
modeling/testing performed to investigate injectant's potential or susceptibility to change
(biological, chemical or physical) in the subsurface.
6of12
Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
A monitoring program will be initiated after the ORCTM injection event at the site to track
enhanced degradation of the target compounds. Components of the monitoring program
will include:
Quarterly sampling and semi-annual reporting of wells MW-01 and RW-01
(source area wells) and MW-02 and MW-03 (downgradient plume -delimiting
wells) during the first and last year of the corrective action program. The analytical
results for the non -reporting quarters will be submitted to the Asheville Regional
Office of NCDENR.
Semi-annual sampling and annual reporting of the well network described above
will be conducted during year two. The analytical results for the non -reporting
semi-annual events will be submitted to the Asheville Regional Office of
NCDENR.
• Laboratory analysis of collected ground -water samples will be performed for
purgeable aromatics, including naphthalene, by EPA Method 602. During the final
year of post remediation sampling, additional analyses such as EPA Method 601
(including MTBE and IPE), EPA Method 504.1 (EDB), and EPA Method 625 will
be performed for site closure purposes.
Each monitoring report will include a brief historical summary of the site incident,
problems experienced during the repotting period, how the system is•operating towards
meeting the desired endpoints, if the contaminant plume is moving or changing in
concentration, and recommendations to improve operations, if any. The report will also
include a brief discussion of the methods utilized in obtaining samples and will include the
laboratory analyses listed in a table by well identification number. The table will have a
column that outlines analytical results and the North Carolina Groundwater Quality
Standards. Samples exhibiting concentrations that exceed Groundwater Quality Standards
will be highlighted in bold.
The monitoring report will include maps that depict the following:
1. Estimated distribution of the dissolved -phase contaminant plume. A separate
isopleth map for benzene will be provided. This map will display the levels of
benzene concentrations in ground water with the use of inferred isoplethllines
which connect points of equal concentrations.
2. Water table contour maps, with water levels shown in each well gauged,
referenced to a surveyed datum.
As the enhanced biodegradation of contaminants progresses, the concentrations of target
compounds in the source area wells are expected to attenuate to levels below their
respective State Ground -water Standards. Verification that ground -water clean-up goals
have been achieved at the site will be obtained when the sampled wells exhibit compound
concentrations that are below their respective State Ground -water Standards during four
consecutive quarterly sampling events.

wells, within the area of review of the injection well or wells system; Figure 4.
(7) potentiometric surface showing direction of groundwater movement; Figure 4.
(8) the horizontal and vertical extent of the contaminant plume (including
isoconcentration lines and plume cross sections); Volatile organic compounds
have been detected at concentrations that exceed NCAC 2L Standards in
monitoring well MW-1 and recovery well RW-01, which extend to depths of 14
feet and 10 feet bgs, respectively. A BTEX (sum of benzene, toluene,
ethylbenzene, and total xylene concentrations) iso-concentration contour map is
presented in Figure 7.
(9) any existing sources of potential or known groundwater contamination, including
waste storage, treatment or disposal systems within the area of review of the
injection well or well system; See locations of contaminated sidewall soil
samples NS2 and ES 1 in Figure 2.

ORCTM is an environmentally -safe product marketed for remedial applications by
Regenesis. ORCTM is a formulation of magnesium peroxide (MgO2) that is
intercalated with food grade phosphate ions to facilitate oxygen release into the
saturated zone at a controlled rate. The product has been shown to promote aerobic
biological degradation of petroleum compounds such as benzene, naphthalene, and
ethylbenzene under pilot- and full-scale conditions. The volume of ORCTM to be
injected into the subsurface is based upon the hydraulic properties of the aquifer, the

E. INJECTION PROCEDURE
Provide a detailed description of all planned activities relating to the proposed injection
facility including but not Limited to:
(1) construction plans and materials;
(2) operation procedures; and
(3) a planned injection schedule.
Activities related to the storage and distribution of petroleum products at the Skyland
Distributing facility have impacted the soil and ground water beneath the site. The results
of previous ground -water monitoring events at the site indicate that concentrations of
petroleum compounds in collected ground -water samples have declined since February
2002. This consistent decline in contaminant concentrations is largely attributable to
degradation of dissolved petroleum compounds by aerobic (oxygen -demanding)
microorganisms native to soil at the site. Following the release of contaminants on the
subject property, native microorganisms in the aquifer have adapted to growth on
contaminants. The microorganisms are aerobic and have the ability to break down the
contaminants in the soil and ground water. The growth of the microbial population has
been largely limited by the availability of oxygen.
Skyland Distributing intends to accelerate the rate of biodegradation of petroleum
compounds in ground water by injection of Oxygen Release Compound (ORC)TM into the
saturated zone. Injection of ORCTM will increase the supply of oxygen (the limiting
factor for aerobic microbes) to the contaminated aquifer. ORCTM is a commercially
available, environmentally -safe product marketed for remedial applications by Regenesis.
ORCTM is a formulation of magnesium peroxide (MgO2) that is intercalated with food
grade phosphate ions to facilitate oxygen release into the saturated zone at a controlled
rate. The product has been shown to promote aerobic biological degradation of petroleum
compounds such as benzene, naphthalene, and ethylbenzene under pilot- and full-scale
conditions. Drinking water wells or other receptors are not located in the vicinity of the
proposed injection area.
Ground -water sampling was conducted in November 2003 to determine initial chemical
parameters (total petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations, biological and chemical oxygen
demand, and ferrous iron and manganese concentrations) in the contaminated aquifer.
These parameters and aquifer characteristics were entered into a web -based software
application provided by Regenesis (www.regenesis.com) to evaluate the volume of
ORCTM and density of injection points necessary to distribute the compound throughout
the contaminant plume. A total of 45 injection points, on an approximate 9-foot grid
pattern, will be advanced to a depth below the water table (approximately 11 feet bgs) in
accessible areas of the ground -water contamination plume utilizing direct push boring
equipment. The injection borings will be advanced using 1.75-inch diameter, expendable
conical points composed of steel or aluminum. Upon reaching a depth of 11 feet bgs, the
conical points will be detached and expended at the bottom of the borings.
An ORCTM slurry mixture will be generated in accordance with manufacturer's
recommendations and will then be injected through the external probe rods into the
subsurface using a pump and hose system attached to the direct push boring equipment.
The probe rods will be retrieved from the hole as the slurry is injected. The ORCTM
injection slurry will be brought up to a depth of approximately 1.5 feet below ground

MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
surface (bgs) in the borings, with one foot of hydrated bentonite to 0.5 feet bgs, and
asphalt pavement patch to surface. Based on the number and depth of injection points, the
soil conditions, the contaminant concentrations, and the equipment being used, we
estimate 930 pounds of ORCTM will be required.
We anticipate that slurry injection and installation and sealing of the injection points will
be completed within three days.
F. DESCRIPTION OF SITE
Provide a brief description of the contamination incident and the incident number
assigned by the Division of Water Quality staff in the Department's Regional Office:
Soil contamination was initially identified near a diesel product line and fuel dispenser
during a Limited subsurface investigation conducted in November 2001. Two 10,000-
gallon diesel aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) and one 5,000-gallon gasoline AST and
associated piping and dispensers were removed from the site on January 23, 2002 (Figure
2). On January 25 and 26, 2002, 39 tons of contaminated soil was excavated from areas
of petroleum staining near the former locations of the diesel fuel dispenser and diesel
AST where the product line entered the subsurface. Soil was also removed from the
former location of the gasoline dispenser and the underground product lines.
Based on evidence of soil contamination in the former area of the fuel dispensers and
underground product lines, an additional 600 cubic yards of contaminated soil was
excavated to a depth of five to six feet below ground surface (bgs) on February 11, 2002.
Approximately one to two feet of clean fill soil was placed in the bottom of the
excavation, and approximately one foot of Number 57 washed stone was placed over the
compacted soil. In anticipation of possible future remedial action at the site, an
infiltration gallery consisting of one -inch diameter PVC pipe was placed over the washed
stone at a depth of two to three feet bgs (Figure 3). The gallery was covered with one foot
of Number 57 washed stone and a layer of filter fabric. Clean soil was placed on top of
the washed stone and compacted with a vibrating sheepsfoot roller to fill the remainder of
the excavation. The disturbed area was subsequently paved by Skyland Distributing.
Confirmation soil samples collected from the sidewalls of the excavation indicated that
TPH-GRO and TPH-DRO concentrations exceeded the NCDENR reportable level in soil
located at the base (below surficial ground water) and north and northeast of the
excavation (Figure 2). Additional soil excavation was not feasible because of the
proximity of a building, Weston Drive, and the subject property boundary (and off -site
building). Following installation of one recovery well and three monitoring wells at the
site, volatile and semi -volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs) were detected in
ground -water samples collected from the area of the excavation and downgradient of the
excavation.
During an April 2003 ground -water monitoring event, two volatile and one semi -volatile
organic compounds (VOCs and SVOC) were detected at concentrations that exceeded
NCAC 2L Standards in ground -water samples collected from the two wells (MW-01 and
RW-01) located at the former excavation area. Two VOCs were identified in samples
3 of 12
Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application..February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
collected from downgradient monitoring wells (MW-02 and MW-03) at concentrations
below the NCAC 2L Standard (Figure 4). SVOCs were not detected in samples collected
from the downgradient monitoring wells. These results indicate that concentrations of
VOCs and SVOCs above the NCAC 2L Standards extend less than 65 feet downgradient
of the source area.
On January 20, 2004, NCDENR granted approval for a Corrective Action Plan, dated
December 16, 2003, which recommended that low -flow air injection into vadose zone
soils becombined with injection of Oxygen Release CompoundTM (ORC) into surficial
ground water for remediation of soil and ground -water contamination at the site.
Incident Number assigned by NCDENR-DWQ: 86033.
G. HYDROGEOLOGIC DESCRIPTION
SECTION (G) MUST BE ORIGINALLY SEALED AND SIGNED BY A
LICENSED GEOLOGIST
Provide a hydrogeologic description, soils description, and cross section of the subsurface
to a depth that included the known or projected depth of contamination. The number of
borings shall be sufficient to determine the following:

(3) the hydraulic conductivity of the saturated zone;
(4) the depth to the mean seasonal high water table; and
(5) a determination of transmissivity and specific yield of the aquifer to be used for
injection (showing calculations).
I have prepared the narrative contents in the following hydrogeologic descriptionfrom a review
of the pertinent geologic / hydrogeologic information.
The following sections describe the regional geologic conditions and the methods employed
to obtain physical data that support our discussion of the local geologic and environmental
conditions.

Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
G.1 Topographic Conditions
Using the 1965 U.S.G.S. Topographic Map of the Skyland, NC Quadrangle, as shown on
Figure 1, the topography in the vicinity of the site is relatively flat. The property is
located at an approximate elevation of 2,240 feet NGVD. The general area surrounding
the site appears to slope downward to the west-southwest towards an unnamed tributary,
which is located approximately 500 feet west of the site. The tributary flows northwest
into Lake Julian, which is located approximately 3,500 feet northwest of the site.
G.2 Geology
G.2.1 Regional Geology
The site is located in the Blue Ridge Physiographic Province. Based on a review of the
Geologic Map of North Carolina, dated 1985, the subject property is underlain by rocks
consisting primarily of muscovite-biotite gneiss. The bedrock in this region is
structurally complex and consists of crystalline rock that has been faulted and contorted
by past tectonic movements. The rock has weathered to residual soils which form the
mantle for the hillsides and hilltops. The typical residual soil profile in areas not
disturbed by erosion or construction -related activities consists of clayey soils near the
surface where weathering is more advanced and underlying sandy silt and silty sand.
G.2.2 Site Geology
On the basis of previous records related to drilling activities at the site, the following
interpretation of the site geology was developed.
On May 15, 2002, Altamont Environmental, Inc. advanced two soil borings and installed
two ground -water monitoring wells (MW-02 and MW-03). The wells are located
approximately 70 feet and 165 feet hydraulically downgradient of the source area (Figure 4).
According to the Well Construction Records, soil encountered during advancement of the
borings consisted of tan silty clay from ground surface to five feet below ground surface
(bgs) and grey silt from five feet to thirteen feet bgs. On November 3, 2003, MACTEC
advanced two exploratory hand -auger borings approximately 15 feet east of the former
excavation area. Soil encountered during advancement of the hand -auger borings consisted
of grey, very micaceous, sandy silt from ground surface to 10 feet bgs.
On October 29, 2003, ground water was encountered at approximately 1 to 4 feet bgs in
monitoring wells MW-01, MW-02, and MW-03. Copies of the well construction records for
wells MW-02 and MW-03 are provided in Appendix A.
HYDROGEOLOGIC INVESTIGATION
The hydraulic conductivity is a constant of proportionality relating to the ease with which a
fluid passes through a porous medium. Based on MACTEC's experience at sites with
similar soil characteristics (i.e., micaceous sandy silts) in the Blue Ridge region, we
estimate the hydraulic conductivity at the site to be approximately 2.0 to 2.5 ft/day.
5 of 12
Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
In addition to hydraulic conductivity (k), the rate of groundwater movement (v) at the site is
a function of hydraulic gradients (i) and the effective porosity (ne) of site soils, as indicated
by the equation v = ki/ne. Based on published values for similar soils, the effective porosity
of the soil at the site is estimated to be about 30 percent (Driscoll, 1986). The hydraulic
conductivity of the soil estimated from previous investigations in the area is 2.0 to 2.5
feet/day. Based on the hydraulic conductivity range, a hydraulic gradient of 0.03 feet/foot
(between wells MW-01 and MW-03), and an average effective porosity of 0.30, the linear
velocity of ground water in soil at this site is estimated to range between 73.0 and 91.3 feet
per year.
G.3 Transmissivity and Specific Yield
Transmissivity is the measure of the amount of water that can be transmitted horizontally by
the full saturated thickness of the aquifer under a hydraulic gradient of 1.
Transmissivity (7) is calculated as the product of the hydraulic conductivity (K) and the
saturated thickness of the aquifer (b). In this instance, hydraulic conductivity has been
estimated to range from 2.0 to 2.5 ft/day. Aquifer thickness is typically estimated by
determining either the maximum vertical extent of ground -water contamination or the depth
to bedrock or other impervious soil layer. However, the shallow depth (total depths of 10 to
14 feet bgs) of monitoring wells and absence of additional information regarding subsurface
conditions at the site precluded direct measurement of aquifer thickness. Based on
MAGI EC's experience at other sites in the area, we estimate the depth of bedrock at the site
to be between 40 and 50 feet bgs. Based on a ground -water depth of 2.97 feet that was
measured in well MW-01 in October 2003, the total saturated thickness of the aquifer is
estimated to be between 37 and 47 feet.
K = 2.0 feet/day
K = 2.5 feet/day
b = 37 feet
b=47feet
T=bK
T,,,i„ = 37 ft x 2.0 ft/day = 74.0 ft2/day
Lax = 47 ft x 2.5 ft/day = 117.5 ft2/day
Specific yield is the ratio of the volume of water that drains from a saturated rock owing to
the attraction of gravity to the total volume of the rock (Fetter, 1988). Published values of
specific yield for soil types indicate that the average specific yield for silty soils is 18 %.
H. MONITORING PROCEDURE
Provide plans for proposed location and construction details of ground -water monitoring
well network, including a schedule for sampling and analytical methods. Include any
modeling/testing performed to investigate injectant's potential or susceptibility to change
(biological, chemical or physical) in the subsurface.

Skyland Distributing Facility — 51 Permit Application February 6, 2004
MACTEC Project No. 6590-03-1252
A monitoring program will be initiated after the ORCTM injection event at the site to track
enhanced degradation of the target compounds. Components of the monitoring program
will include:
Quarterly sampling and semi-annual reporting of wells MW-01 and RW-01
(source area wells) and MW-02 and MW-03 (downgradient plume -delimiting
wells) during the first and last year of the corrective action program. The analytical
results for the non -reporting quarters will be submitted to the Asheville Regional
Office of NCDENR.
• Semi-annual sampling and annual reporting of the well network described above
will be conducted during year two. The analytical results for the non -reporting
semi-annual events will be submitted to the Asheville Regional Office of
NCDENR.
• Laboratory analysis of collected ground -water samples will be performed for
purgeable aromatics, including naphthalene, by EPA Method 602. During the final
year of post remediation sampling, additional analyses such as EPA Method 601
(including MTBE and IPE), EPA Method 504.1 (EDB), and EPA Method 625 will
be performed for site closure purposes.
Each monitoring report will include a brief historical summary of the site incident,
problems experienced during the reporting period, how the system is operating towards
meeting the desired endpoints, if the contaminant plume is moving or changing in
concentration, and recommendations to improve operations, if any. The report will also
include a brief discussion of the methods utilized in obtaining samples and will include the
laboratory analyses listed in a table by well identification number. The table will have a
column that outlines analytical results and the North Carolina Groundwater Quality
Standards. Samples exhibiting concentrations that exceed Groundwater Quality Standards
will be highlighted in bold.
The monitoring report will include maps that depict the following:
1. Estimated distribution of the dissolved -phase contaminant plume. A separate
isopleth map for benzene will be provided. This map will display the levels of
benzene concentrations in ground water with the use of inferred isopleth lines
which connect points of equal concentrations.
2. Water table contour maps, with water levels shown in each well gauged,
referenced to a surveyed datum.
As the enhanced biodegradation of contaminants progresses, the concentrations of target
compounds in the source area wells are expected to attenuate to levels below their
respective State Ground -water Standards. Verification that ground -water clean-up goals
have been achieved at the site will be obtained when the sampled wells exhibit compound
concentrations that are below their respective State Ground -water Standards during four
consecutive quarterly sampling events.
