It occupies approximately 227 acres and is located in a rural area of the county adjacent to the French Broad River(Appendix A, Drawing 1 of 1). Municipal, industrial, and construction solid wastes along with household waste and yard debris were disposed at the landfill. In 1985, a water sample from a groundwater monitoring well at the landfill indicated the presence of trichloroethene and tetrachloroethene in the groundwater at concentrations in excess of state regulatory standards. Subsequent samples collected during the early 1990s continued to show the presence of volatile organic compounds in various groundwater monitoring wells around the landfill. In 1993, Buncombe County entered into an Administrative Agreement on Consent (AOC) with the Solid Waste Division of the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR)to investigate the groundwater and surface water conditions of the landfill. Results of groundwater sampling in accordance with the AOC indicated that concentrations of chlorinated organic compounds collected during contamination assessment and monitoring activities at the Landfill appear to be naturally attenuating. As a result,Buncombe County was requested by the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NCDENR) to evaluate the.effectiveness of the application of Hydrogen Release Compound (HRC) to accelerate and enhance the observed natural attenuation of the chlorinated organics. The most recent report of investigations of the groundwater at the landfill is the "Comprehensive Site Assessment Report," (CSAR) prepared by PBS&J and SCS Engineers (SCS), dated April ( 2005.1 It concluded that three chlorinated hydrocarbons, trichloroethene, cis-1,2-dichloroethene, and vinyl chloride are present in Area A-West of the landfill. The CSAR indicated that injection of HRC into the subsurface potentially would enhance the natural attenuation of these three chlorinated hydrocarbons. As a result of these findings and the request of NCDENR to evaluate the effectiveness of HRC application to the groundwater, a pilot-scale chemical injection test was proposed and performed to evaluate HRC effectiveness in treating groundwater in Area A-West (Appendix A,Drawing 1 of 1 and Figure 1-2). In May 2005, a Pilot Study Work Plant was prepared that described the pilot-study field test for injecting HRC into the groundwater. The pilot-scale field test was initiated on June 12, 2007, for a two year period including two injection events and quarterly monitoring of select groundwater monitoring wells to observe effects of injection. This report documents this pilot-scale test and includes the following: • Methodology of the pilot-scale study. • Injection procedure and groundwater monitoring program. • Groundwater quality data collected during the two-year study period.

STUDY SITE LAYOUT Major fractures in hydrogeologie units at the Landfill were identified during the contamination assessment conducted at the facility. Exploratory boreholes were drilled in areas likely to exhibit fractures, and geophysical logs were run to accurately assess the respective location, depth, and size of the fractures. It was concluded that these fractures were the primary avenues of groundwater flow controlling fate and transport of the chlorinated hydrocarbons from the landfill. The investigations provided guidance for locating and establishing depths for two HRC injection wells (IW-135 and IW-43) and four groundwater monitoring wells (MW-17-137,MW- 17-60, MW-17-A, and MW47-11) located hydraulically down-gradient from the injection wells (Appendix A,Figure 1-2). IW-135 and IW-43 (Appendix C) are set to 135 feet and 43 feet below grade,respectively,to provide access to the deep and shallow fracture zones identified in Area A-West. The four groundwater monitoring wells (cluster MW-17-137 and MW-17-60; and cluster MW-17-A and MW-17-B) were installed to monitor the deep and shallow fracture zones. MW-17-137 and MW-17-60 were previously installed for routine monitoring of the fracture zones. MW-17-A and MW-17-B were installed to observe potential HRC injection effects near the French Broad River. INJECTION METHODOLOGY R. Caldwell Well Drilling, Inc., (RCWD)provided the personnel, equipment, and expertise to perform the HRC injection. The viscosity of the HRC compound(at room temperature it is similar to that of honey) required RCWD to establish a technique to warm the HRC prior to injection to decrease its viscosity. This was accomplished by use of a water reservoir within which the temperature of buckets of HRC was raised prior to injection (Appendix D, Photograph D-1). Injection was performed twice during the pilot study, once at the initiation of the study (June 13, 2007), then a second time one year after the initial injection event (June 11, 2008). Both events included pouring HRC into each injection well followed by pressure injection when gravity ceased being effective to move the HRC into formation fractures. Injection was ceased when back pressure exceeded the contractor's ability to maintain the position of the injection packer. The injection equipment and method included inserting an injection tubing and packer into each injection well to the bottom of the well then pulling back a few feet and expanding the packer to allow placement of HRC into the gravel packed interval below the packer. The tubing consisted of perforated stainless steel injection tubing above which was mounted a 5-foot long rubber packer with conductor tubing passing though the center of the packer leading to the perforated injection tubing. A photograph of this injection assembly is indluded in Appendix D, Photograph 2- 1 Buncombe County, North Carolina No.D-2. The injection assembly was inserted into,each injection well and extended to land surface by adding 21-foot lengths of stainless steel riser pipe with threaded couplings (Appendix D, Photograph No. D-3). After the injection assembly was set and packer expanded,HRC was poured down the injection tubing under gravity feed until HRC ceased moving into the formation. After gravity feed stopped, the injection tubing system was connected to a hopper and pump and HRC injected under pressure. Injection continued until pressures could not be increased without dislodging the packer assembly. Appendix D, Photograph D-4 shows the injection site setup. The hopper and pump is located on the other side of the water storage tank. MONITORING AND SAMPLING PROGRAM The groundwater monitoring program for the pilot-study included quarterly sampling of four groundwater monitoring wells: MW-17-137,MW-17-60,MW-17-A, and MW-17-13. These groundwater monitoring wells were sampled quarterly for the following parameters and related analytical methods and frequency: • Chlorinated hyrdrocarbons: EPA 8260; quarterly. • Total Organic Carbon: EPA 415.1 or 9060; semi-annually. • Metabolic Acids (lactic, pyruvic, acetic,propionic,butyric): EPA AM21G; semi- annually. • Nitriate: EPA 353.1 or 9056; semi-annually. • Sulfate: EPA 353.1 or 9056; semi-annually. • Sulfide: Hach chlorimetric method or EPA 376.2; semi-annually. • Carbon dioxide: AM20GAX; semi-annually. • Methane,Ethane,Ethene: AM20GAX, semi-annually. • Field Parameters (pH, DO, ORP, temperature): Flow-thm cell field instruments, quarterly. • Total/Diss. Iron: Hach chlorimetric method or EPA 600, felt, and unfilt./semi- annually. • Hydrogen: A20GAX; semi-annually. In addition to the above, sample results from routine quarterly and semi-annual sampling of the above groundwater monitoring wells were used to provide data for up to approximately two r years prior to injection pilot-testing. These data were used for comparison of injection effects and are included in tables and on figures in this report. 2-2 Buncombe County, North Carolina Sampling was performed by Pace Laboratories out of Ashville,North Carolina (Pace). Pace is certified to provide analytical laboratory services in Ashville, North Carolina under the following: • North Carolina Drinking Water Certification Number 37712. • North Carolina Wastewater Certification Number 40. • North Carolina Bioassay Certification Number 9. INJECTION EVENTS Two injection events were performed at the site. The initial injection event was performed on June 13,2007. Approximately 495 pounds of Regenesis HRC were placed into injection well IW-135 over approximately one hour. Initially, injection was by gravity feed followed by injection under pressure. Following injection into IW-135, the packer assembly was moved to injection well IW-43. Approximately 45 pounds of HRC were placed into injection well IW-43 over approximately a 15-minute period before injection pressures began to dislodge the packer assembly and injection was terminated. The second injection event was performed on June 11, 2008 and essentially the same procedure was used. For the second event, approximately 345 pounds of Regenesis HRC were placed into injection well IW-135 and 45 pounds were injected into IW-43. r" INJECTION WELL ABANDONMENT Following completion of groundwater sampling associated with the injection events, IW-43 and IW-135 were abandoned. Abandonment included placing bentonite grout into the injection wells using a tremie pipe to back fill the wells from total depth to land surface (see Appendix D photographs). Formation water and residual HRC that back flowed from the wells during abandonment were collected in drums at land surface for testing and proper management of these wastes. Well head concrete pads and protective risers were left in place as markers for future reference. Well Abandonment Record forms were completed along with well construction diagrams and submitted to the NCDENR. Copies of these documents are included in Appendix C. 2-3 Buncombe County, North Carolina - 3 GROUNDWATER SAMPLING EVENTS AND DATA This section summarizes the groundwater sampling events and data. Section 4 provides the evaluation the data and apparent effectiveness of the injection pilot test. GROUNDWATER SAMPLING EVENTS Eight quarterly groundwater sampling events were performed during the injection pilot-testing period. One baseline sample was collected prior to injection and four sampling events were performed following each injection event. The sampling dates are listed in Appendix B,Table B-1 along with the injection events and date of injection well abandonment. Sampling logs and chains-of-custody for the samples are included in Appendix F. GROUNDWATER SAMPLING METHODOLOGY Groundwater sampling was performed by Pace in accordance with the Pace Analytical Field Services Division "Groundwater Monitoring Field Quality Assurance Manual. Samples collected for analysis of natural attenuation parameters by Microseeps, Inc., (Microseeps) were collected following field sampling protocols provided by Microseeps. GROUNDWATER SAMPLING DATA AND QUALITY ASSURANCE Groundwater samples were collected at the injection test site as summarized in Section 2. Pace's analytical reports are included in Appendix F. Detected compounds are listed in Appendix B, Tables B-2 through B-5. Select data are highlighted for concentrations that exceed state standards. Pace provided Quality Control data for test parameters including air headspace (EPA 3810 Modified and RSK 175),metals (EPA 200.7 and 245.1, SM 3030C for sample preparation), nitrate and nitrite analysis (EPA 353.3), sulfate (ASTM D516-90), sulfide (SM 4500-S2D),total organic carbon (SM 5310 B), and volatile organic compounds (EPA 8260). . Overall, the QA/QC results were acceptable and sampling data considered valid. Most parameters fell within the recommended guidelines for method blanks,laboratory control samples (LCS), duplicates, and matrix spikes/matrix spike duplicates (MS/MSD). Specific quality control issues for each sampling event are listed below. April 2007—Matrix spike recoveries for mercury and silver fell below the required range. The sample utilized for the MS/MSD analysis of mercury was not obtained from with the Injection test site. Since method blank and LCS results were acceptable,the low QC result is most likely from matrix interference within that sample and not a concern to samples from the injection test site. However, the spiked sample with the silver result came from MW-17A, and only 38% of the sample was recovered. The non-detected silver result in MW-17A and the sampling results for silver are considered invalid. r" 3- 1 Buncombe County, North Carolina September 2007—MS/MSD test results for silica fell outside the recommended range. However, method blank and LCS results were acceptable, and the spiked sample was not '- obtained from the injection test site. Therefore, no qualifications to the silica data are necessary and the sampling results are considered valid. March 2008—Vinyl acetate showed a high bias in the LCS,but was not present above the reporting limit in any associated sample. In addition, the MS/MSD results for mercury and iron fell outside the recommended range. However, method blank and LCS results were acceptable for these parameters, and the spiked samples were not obtained from the injection test site. Therefore, no qualifications to the data were necessary and the sampling results are considered valid. June 2008—LCS samples for three volatile organic compounds showed a high bias; however, none of the compounds were detected above the reported limit in corresponding samples., MS/MSD percent recoveries were outside the recommended range for sulfate, 1,2- dichloroethene,benzene, chlorobenzene, toluene, and trichloroethene. However, method blank and LCS results were acceptable for these parameters, and the spiked samples were not obtained from the injection test site. Therefore,no qualifications to the data were necessary and the sampling results are considered valid. September 2008—The RPD values for arsenic exceeded the recommended range in a duplicate sample not taken from the injection test site. Since the method blank,LCS, and MS/MSD data all fell within the recommended range, no qualifications to the data were necessary and the r sampling results,are considered valid. December 2008—Pace qualified the following data for the reasons indicated: • Methane samples were qualified because the post-analysis measurements indicated insufficient VOA sample preservation. • Naphthalene was detected in a method blank and then in associated samples. • LCS data was below the recommended range and suggested a low bias for bromomethane, carbon tetrachloride, chloroethane, chloromethane, dichlorodifluoromethane, 1,1-dichloroethene, trans-1,2-dichloroethene, methylene chloride, MIBK, trichlorofluoromethane, and vinyl chloride. March 2009—Pace qualified the methane samples because the post-analysis measurements revealed insufficient VOA sample preservation. Laboratory control sample results for selenium exceeded the recommended range and showed a high bias; however, selenium was below the reporting limits in the associated sample results. LCS results for ethane and ethane also exceeded RPD requirements, but method blank and matrix spike results were within the required range. Matrix spike sample data fell outside the required range for nitrate, nitrite, total nitrogen, sulfide, and total organic carbon. As the method blank and LCS results were acceptable for these r 3-2 Buncombe County, _North Carolina parameters, and the spiked samples were not obtained from the-injection test site, no qualifications were necessary to the data and the sampling results are considered valid. June 2009—Pace qualified the methane samples because the post-analysis measurements revealed insufficient VOA sample preservation. Laboratory control sample results for selenium exceeded the recommended range and showed a high bias; however, selenium was below the reporting limits in the associated sample results. LCS results for ethane and ethane also exceeded RPD requirements, but method blank and matrix spike results were within the required range. Methylene chloride was present in a blank,but no associated samples. Matrix spike sample data fell outside the required range for iron, sulfate, and nitrite. As the method blank and LCS results were acceptable for these parameters, and the spiked samples were not obtained from the injection test site, no qualifications were necessary to the data and the sampling results are considered valid. No quality control data are provided by Microseeps. Consequently, no quality assurance evaluation of the sampling results for metabolic acids, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen was performed. 3-3 Buncombe County, North Carolina —� 4 FINDINGS OF PILOT-SCALE INJECTION TEST This section summarizes the effectiveness of HRC to reduce chlorinated hydrocarbon concentrations in groundwater at the landfill. OVERVIEW The findings of the pilot-scale injection test are listed in Appendix B tables (B-2 through B-5) and summarized on time-series graphs of groundwater quality data included in Appendix G. These graphs show concentrations of the following selected parameters over time at the four monitoring wells MW-17-137, MW-17-60, MW-17-A, and MW-17-B: • Trichloroethene(TCE) • Cis-1,2-dicWoroethene (cis-1,2-DCE) • Vinyl chloride (VC) • Total organic carbon (TOC) Trichloroethene, cis-1,2-dichloroethene, and vinyl chloride are the chlorinated hydrocarbon groundwater contaminants previously shown to be present in the groundwater in Area A-West, which are undergoing natural attenuation. The HRC injection process was intended to investigate whether the rate of this natural attenuation would be increased such that reduce concentrations of these compounds would be observed during the two years of the pilot-scale - test. Total organic carbon graphs are shown in Appendix G to provide an indication of the arrival of the HRC compound at a particular monitoring well. The HRC compound is a non-chlorinated hydrocarbon that increases the concentration of TOC in groundwater as the HRC moves through the groundwater system and is subsequently broken down during the dechlorination process. WATER QUALITY DETECTION RESULTS Summary tables of detected concentrations of the various parameters sampled in each sampling event at the four monitoring wells are included in Appendix B. Concentrations that exceeded state.standards are highlighted. This section briefly reviews these findings which include findings associated with natural attenuation of the three target chlorinated hydrocarbons (TCE, cis-1,2-DCE, and VC) and findings associated with other organic and inorganic parameters. MW-17-137 Detections Appendix B,Table B-2 lists water quality data from MW-17-137. Parameters that were detected in excess of state standards at least once either before-or during the pilot-scale test period include cis-1,2-DCE,VC, total and dissolved iron, total and dissolved manganese, and vanadium. The pilot-scale injection test was intended only to address cis-1,2-DCE and VC observed at MW-17-137. The occurrence and concentrations of iron,manganese, and vanadium (or other metals) are not intended to be remediated by the HRC injection'process. 4- 1 Buncombe County, North Carolina 1113339E�ll MW-17-60 Detections Appendix B,Table B-3 lists water quality data from MW-17-60. Parameters that were detected in excess of state standards at least once either before or during the pilot-scale test period include benzene, cis-1,2-13CE, VC, total and dissolved iron, and thallium. Benzene occurred once at MW-17-60 in excess of its state standard, during the final sampling event in June 2009. Benzene is a petroleum hydrocarbon and not remediated by the HRC injection process. Thallium also occurred at MW-17-60. The HRC injection process is not intended to remediate this metal. MW-17-A Detections Appendix B,Table B-4 lists water quality data from MW-17-A. Parameters that were detected in excess of state standards at least once either before or during the pilot-scale test period include 1,2-dichloropropane,TCE,total and dissolved iron, total and dissolved manganese, and vanadium. Before and during the pilot-scale injection test, 1,2-dichloropropane occurred at MW-17-A above its state standard. It also occurred on two occasions in the adjacent monitoring well MW- 17-B. The HRC injection process is not intended to remediate this compound. Vanadium is a metal and also is not remediated by HRC. MW-17-11 Detections Appendix B,Table B-5 lists water quality data from MW-17-B. Parameters that were detected in excess of state standards at least once either before or during the pilot-scale test period include 1,2-dichloropropane,methylene chloride, total and dissolved iron, and total and dissolved manganese. Each of these parameters relative to the HRC injection process has been briefly addressed above. Ethene, Ethane, Methane Findings Ethene,ethane, and methane findings are listed in tables in the detection tables in Appendix B. Significant increases in methane concentrations at NM-17-60 and MW-17-137 during the injection monitoring period clearly indicate the arrival and effects of the HRC compound on the chlorinate organics in the groundwater at each well. Metabolic Acids Findings Metabolic acid concentrations listed in the detection tables in Appendix B indicate HRC affected monitoring wells MW-17-60 and MW-17-137. However, little to no metabolic acids were observed in the hydraulically down-gradient monitoring wells MW-17-A and MW-17-B. r, I 4-2 Buncombe County, North Carolina TIME SERIES GRAPHS RESULTS I The time-series graphs in Appendix G, Figures G-1 through G-3, show groundwater concentrations at the four groundwater monitoring wells leading into and during the pilot-test period. They are presented in the order of the natural attenuation conversion process of the three target chlorinated hydrocarbons (i.e.,TCE converts to cis-1,2-DCE then further converts to VC). VC subsequently converts to ethene and disperses harmlessly into the groundwater regime. Each graph presents a plot of concentration versus date of sampling before and during the pilot-scale test period. Where concentrations are low and unchanging, they represent one-half of the minimum detection concentration observed for the compound. Each graph also includes a horizontal line with black boxes at each end representing the concentration standard for the compound(e.g.,VC plots shown on Figure G-1 indicate the standard for the compound is 0.015 micrograms per liter).Each graph also shows the vertical timeline for each injection event. Appendix G,Figure G-4, shows the change in TOC concentrations at the monitoring wells leading into and during the pilot-scale test period. Only one sampling event was performed prior to initiation of the pilot-scale test that included collection of TOC data. TCE Findings Appendix G, Figure G-1, shows concentrations of TCE in the four monitoring wells from as early as March 2005 to June 2009. Concentrations of TCE leading into the first injection on June 13, 3007 were below the standard in three of the wells. However,just prior to the first injection, concentrations were above the standard in all wells. Between the two injection events, concentrations decreased to near or below the minimum detection level and remained below the standard through the remainder of the pilot-scale test period. Cis-1 ,2-DCE Findings Appendix G,Figure G-2, shows concentrations of TCE in the four monitoring wells from as early as March 2005 to June 2009. Prior to the first injection event, concentrations of cis-1,2- DCE were well above the MCL at MW-17-137. Between the first and second injection event, concentrations at this well decreased to the minimum detection limit and remained there. Prior to the first injection event,concentrations of cis-1,2-DCE were fluctuating around the MCL at MW-17-60. Between the first and second injection event, concentrations at this well decreased to the minimum detection limit and remained there. Prior to the first injection event, concentrations of cis-1,2-DCE were below the MCL in MW-17- A and MW-17-B, and remained below the standard for the duration of the pilot-scale test period. The trends in the data at these two.monitoring wells do not indicate that injection of the HRC further reduced the concentration of cis-1,2-DCE, although there might be a slight decrease in concentration occurring at MW-17-B. J 4-3 Buncombe County, North Carolina _ VC Findings Appendix G,Figure G-3, shows concentrations of VC in the four monitoring wells from as early as March 2005 to June 2009. Prior to the first injection event, concentrations of VC were highest in ME-17-137 and fluctuated dramatically. Between the first and second injection event, concentrations at this well decreased to the minimum detection level and remained there. It should be noted that the minimum detection level cannot attain the standard set by the state of 0.015 ug/l. TOC Findings The TOC concentrations shown in Appendix G, on Figure G-4 are helpful in evaluating when the HRC compound apparently reached each of the monitoring wells. The samples collected prior to the first injection event and the initial sampling data following the first injection event indicate little to no TOC present in the monitoring wells. The TOC concentrations related to the presence ' of the three target chlorinated hydrocarbons were very low relative to the TOC expected to be observed as the HRC reached each well. The second TOC sample after the first injection event was collected from each of the monitoring wells in December 2007, six months following the first injection. At this date,TOC concentrations had noticeably increased in both MW-17-60 and MW-17-137;the closest set of monitoring wells to the injection wells. This indicates the arrival of the HRC. Six months later,TOC concentrations in MW-17-A and MW-17-B rose slightly, possibly indicating arrival of HRC at those wells. Approximately six months following the second injection event,TOC concentrations at all four monitoring wells began declining, probably indicating passage of the HRC front at those locations. The passage of this front probably is associated with the second injection event based on the trends in the concentrations across the two events. Field Parameters Field parameters collected during groundwater sampling included pH, temperature, oxidation- reduction potential (ORP), dissolved oxygen (DO), specific conductance (SC), turbidity, and static water levels (Appendix B, Table B-6). The pH values, along with ORP, DO, and SC values can be indicators of the action of HRC on groundwater quality at a particular monitoring well. These data are shown on time series graphs in Appendix G. Review of the graphs indicates significant decreases in DO values at each of the monitoring wells following the initial injection event and continuing during the period following the second injection event. With the exception of specific conductance at MW-17-137, the other indicators did not indicate trends useful for evaluatinjarrival and effects of HRC. Specific conductance at MW-17-137 rose noticeably following the initial injection event and continued gradually rising following the second event. 4-4 Buncombe County, North Carolina .� 5 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS This section provides key conclusions from the pilot-scale test and recommendations based on the conclusions and intent of Buncombe County to address the concerns of NCDENR regarding groundwater contamination at the landfill. CONCLUSIONS • Overall,the quality assurance review of the laboratory data indicated that sampling results were acceptable and sampling data are,considered valid. • HRC compound injected into the subsurface at the landfill is effective in increasing the rate of natural attenuation of the chlorinated compounds,TCE,cis-DCE, and VC. • The first injection event reduced concentrations of TCE at the four monitoring wells below the MCL and concentrations remained below the MCL for the remainder of the pilot-scale test period. • The first injection event reduced concentrations of cis-1,2-DCE at two of the four monitoring wells (MW-17-60 and MW-17-137) below the MCL and concentrations remained below the MCL for the remainder of the pilot-scale test period. • The first and second injection events appeared to reduce the DO at each of the monitoring wells and caused a significant rise in specific conductance at MW-17-137. • The first and second injection events did not appear to substantively affect concentrations of cis-1,2-DCE at either MW-17-A or MW-17-B. However, concentrations were below the MCL and did not need to be reduced. Changes in TOC concentrations at these wells indicated that relatively little of the HRC reached the wells, which may explain the lack of effect. • Following injection of the HRC,changes in the TOC concentrations at the monitoring wells indicated HRC began arriving at MW-17-137 and MW-17-60,the pair of monitoring wells closest to the injection wells, in approximately six months. The HRC began arriving at MW-17-A and MW-17-B in approximately 12 months following the first injection event. Methane and metabolic acid concentrations confirmed the arrival of HRC at the closest groundwater monitoring wells MW-17- 137 and MW-17-60. • Following the second injection event, the HRC apparently reached it highest concentration at all the monitoring wells approximately six months later,then began declining. Because this occurred at approximately the same date at all the wells, regardless of distance from the injection wells, these changes in concentrations are thought to be a combination of arrival of the HRC front and degradation of the concentration of the HRC due to several forces, including but not limited to dilution, diffusion, and the reaction with the chlorinated hydrocarbon contaminants. Because 5-1 Buncombe County, North Carolina of the low viscosity of the HRC upon cooling, there probably also is a substantial amount of HRC moving very slowly away from the injection wells which has yet to - reach the monitoring wells. • Based on the TOC concentrations, groundwater at MW-17-137 received the greatest amount of treatment from HRC, with a relatively lower concentration reaching MW- 17-60, and substantially lower amounts of HRC reaching the farther down-gradient monitoring wells MW-17-A and MW-17-B. • The second injection event may have contributed to assuring that concentrations of the three target chlorinated compounds remained below their respective MCLs. However, because concentrations essentially remained unchanging across the second event,the actual effect of the second injection event is unknown. • Other parameters not intended to be remediated by the HRC injection process occurred in various monitoring wells before and/or during the pilot-scale injection test including: benzene, 1,2-dichloropropane, iron,manganese, thallium, and vanadium. • Because of the viscosity of the HRC, the methodology to inject the HRC required heating of the material prior to injection. It appeared that the change in viscosity with cooling of the HRC during injection into the subsurface may have been the limiting factor to injection. r` • Small doses of HRC placed into the subsurface at more frequent intervals may be a more effective method to treating groundwater contamination. RECOMMENDATIONS The purpose of the pilot-scale injection test was to assess the effectiveness of the injection of HRC to increase the rate of natural attenuation of select chlorinated hydrocarbon compounds in the subsurface at the Landfill. The pilot-scale injection test was successful in providing this assessment. The following recommendations are provided as potential alternatives for the next step in the process. SCS suggests that the County and NCDENR meet to discuss these alternatives and develop a mutual agreement on proceeding, considering NCDENR regulations and County resources. • Assess the source of the chlorinated hydrocarbons at the landfill. That is, assess whether the source primarily is leachate, landfill gas, or a combination of the two. • Assess whether other parameters being detected at the landfill in excess of state standards should be addressed in a remedial action effort. • Perform a cost-benefit analysis to evaluate potential long-term costs of using HRC to remediate the known concentrations of chlorinated solvents in groundwater across the full extent of the landfill. 5-2 Buncombe County, North Carolina • Evaluate the effect of the HRC-improved natural attenuation process on the risk assessment and compare that effect with the effect of unaided natural attenuation. • Perform an alternative corrective measures evaluation of the landfill to assess and rank the appropriateness of other remedial actions that potentially could be employed at the landfill. This evaluation should address both organic and inorganic parameters that exceed state standards. • If further HRC injection is performed at the landfill, address the difficulties of lowering the viscosity of the compound prior to injection. Inject smaller doses of the HRC more often to reduce the difficulty of maintaining lower viscosity of the compound during injection, thus potentially increasing the amount of HRC that can be introduced into the subsurface. t C e 5-3 Buncombe County, North Carolina i� APPENDIX A FIGURES L� !V ■ ' /] J / a-Q53QgaRa©&\ \§ ' /§ / 4 |!J 0. ! „ ! ; - ■ ( � \ \ \ § ) | | | ! «\ _ _ ♦ ■ \ | ® � § § ! � ♦ , !; ■§ ,= aK. ssf�iN�s " e_e ,ƒ MONITORING WELL LOCATION MAP y : BUNCOMBE COUNTY ■ - m_CARu_ BUNCOMBE COUNTY . __mw LEGEND ❑iw-135 LOCATION AND DESIGNATION OF HRC INJECTION WELL - ❑MW-17—so LOCATION AND DESIGNATION OF MONITORING WELL moo° i9oo— TOPOGRAPHIC CONTOUR,FEET NGVD 0 25/�50 ��� ADER S, LE IN FEET BR 1900— MW-17-B Eb MW-17-A MW-17-1,37 ------ —�1925 ❑ MW-17-60 as \ w \— i95o ACCESS ROAD \ i SC S ENGINEERS Figure 1-2.

The site is approximately 5,000 feet long, from north to south, and approximately 3,700 feet wide, from east to west. Currently, the area surrounding the landfill is largely rural, with scattered homes and subdivisions nearby. A medium-security prison occupies the property immediately adjoining the western landfill property line. A wastewater treatment plant is located approximately one-half mile upstream (south) of the landfill property. Topography at the site ranges from rolling to steep. The steeper, more rugged terrain is along the hillside facing the French Broad River to the south. Ground surface elevations range from about 1890 feet along the French Broad River to about 2200 feet in the eastern-central part of the site. The southern portion of the site drains to the French Broad River by the way of several small creeks and streams. The northern portion of the site is drained by several small creeks and streams that converge and exit the site via a stream at the northern corner,ultimately discharging to the French Broad River. Regional Geology { Mountainous areas of western North Carolina and adjacent eastern Tennessee are part of the Blue Ridge Physiographic and Structural Province. This province is composed of a great, three-dimensional mass of deformed and metamorphosed rocks. These rocks are undoubtedly allochthonous, being underlain in the subsurface by thrust faults of Late Paleozoic age. The Blue Ridge rocks have been moved northwestward on these faults at least 30 miles and probably more than 125 miles. The central part of Buncombe County is underlain mainly by garnet-muscovite schist and biotite gneiss. To some extent, they alternate in discontinuous northeast-trending belts, together with elongate bodies of hornblende gneiss. There are irregular granitic bodies scattered throughout the area, and small pegmatite dikes and quartz veins intrude the schist and gneiss almost everywhere. The geologic map of North Carolina indicates that the Old Buncombe County Landfill is underlain by muscovite-biotite gneiss of the Ashe Metamorphic Suite. The muscovite- biotite gneiss of this suite is typically medium gray to medium dark gray, thin to medium layered, and is commonly sulfidic. The rock appears to be massive, but where it is weathered, foliation is discernible. Color banding and compositional layering occur parallel to foliation. Quartz augen, some of which appear to be relict pebbles that have been deformed, are present at widely scattered localities. Unweathered calcite and dolomite streaks may be seen in the rock at fresh exposures. Virgin soils at the landfill are the residual product of in-place chemical weathering of the underlying rock. In undisturbed areas, the typical residual soil profile consists of clayey soils near the surface, where soil weathering is more advanced, underlain by sandy silts and silty sands. The boundary between soil and rock is not sharply defined, and a transitional zone of partially weathered rock or saprolite is normally found. Weathering is facilitated by fractures,joints and the presence of less resistant rock types. Consequently, the profile of the partially weathered rock and hard rock is quite irregular and erratic, even over short horizontal distances. Lenses and boulders of hard rock and zones of partially weathered rock are often found within the soil mantle, well above the general bedrock level. A cross section depicting the topography, bedrock, groundwater, and waste areas of the proposed injection site is shown on Figure 4-8. Groundwater Groundwater in the Blue Ridge physiographic province occurs in the pore space of the regolith and in secondary opening such as joints, fractures, cleavage planes, bedding planes and solution channels in the underlying bedrock. Although the storage capacity is higher in the saprolite than the underlying bedrock, the ability to transmit water is greater in the fractured bedrock. As a result,the saprolite functions as a reservoir that supplies water to the underlying fractured bedrock. Recent investigations at other sites overlying fractured bedrock aquifers have indicated that the transition zone between saprolite and bedrock may i also provide an avenue of preferential flow and contaminant transport in the subsurface. Fractured crystalline rocks tend to exhibit a high degree of heterogeneity, with highly transmissive fracture zones embedded within a less permeable fracture network. In such a setting, flow paths are highly tortuous. If high transmissivity zones occur at different depths, fluid flow will involve significant vertical components, as the fluid move from a high-transmissivity zone at one depth through less permeable factures to another high- transmissivity zone at another depth. Aquifer Testing Major fractures at the Old Buncombe County Landfill were identified during the contamination assessment conducted at the facility. Exploratory boreholes were drilled in areas likely to exhibit fractures, and geophysical logs were run to accurately assess the respective depth and magnitude of the fractures. Based on the results of borehole geophysics, discreet fracture zones within the bedrock boreholes were selected and sealed off with a packer assembly for aquifer testing. The testing consisted of pumping the sealed off fracture zones and measuring the observed drawdown with time. 0091 r . 0091 t oocL 0ORL 0061 OOOZ OOIZ OOZZ 00H 004Z . +iry✓SSiJ hSy,.._�,��C:�i • JrI✓✓J✓�Ih✓i IS+I✓S+I �yry+19i�I�I > ^'i•Jx ♦ - rI✓rnyh+ivyl�;h�y+IrJI✓ h.Yr'�rh����h�`;�+i: Iryj Nyhry. y ✓jrI �lJII,i y � � - o✓>Ir yI�.LS>i I^IhIJ Ihy�M,h hg'J✓I: .� .� 1 v y✓Shhr+ •fir+i ,�Ir;: hh✓I✓ ,yy.�I�hp rI�.I✓i: + 'rS°++++++M++�'�f✓Iryry��hS�iS°++ISil�ir�S S�'+I S+i .,��< ✓IrySh✓y r hry>✓ I'r�ryhi>++I syi✓I✓I Mr�, I✓� Si✓Irj✓'y�Mr�ir++j>'�ii;?r +,il�'✓+Jia9+✓ry++i:r'•'i>; S ✓+is^)+N+h41Sh>itS.r+Iidv�•✓i+�.�ry+✓'+✓+i+++ry� 5�y✓S rr�NiJf�✓Sh �h�'�'h�✓S+iJr9rjy+S'ylSli�9i+�Y�rS+I'Ihi'.�+SS'L: ., �ryaj>+✓aj>hs,J+✓JI�JI✓j�rJ+,rl•Irl�r++IIIJ)✓IS+IIy'I!✓j I+IIIjJ� • �+5+%y'S+jr;S i�rS+js�S+jll'�r+ih'v+°+i�++ry��+j✓ishSiji I'V✓'✓i✓ ' � S+jhrShS�S+ijSLryJSs✓15.E�+iry�h✓I+ry•W I�+Sh��rl�+S ir+�OS�. iiS+jh✓S+jlf,;'j✓�Srj�irl!yd•.y�:I+Sl��ri��Oy✓S+j✓frh:�iry+Sri >�+SShf✓S>�'+iSli��i+'^I+,3r✓ f'I'i��+i✓ iiS°irj�r+'i�ryJ+iy>+�. ..

For each fracture zone, the packer assembly was lowered to the appropriate depth and the packers were then inflated to seal off the targeted fracture zone. A 4-inch submersible pump was then lowered through the 4-inch PVC casing into the screened section of the packer assembly. Once in place, the pump was momentarily activated and water levels in the borehole annulus and within the 4- inch casing were measured to test the effectiveness of the seal. Once assured of a competent seal, a pressure transducer was installed to a depth just above the pump and was connected to a datalogger. The datalogger was programmed to collect the water level data on a logarithmic sampling schedule, which optimized the data collection speed. The pump was then activated and the drawdown test was run until either the water level reached equilibrium, or the packer assembly was pumped dry, at which point the pump was stopped and the test stepped or restarted to record the recovery data. The collected data was evaluated in order to provide an estimate of the fracture conductivity. Fracture conductivities were also estimated by slug testing selected monitoring wells. The response of an aquifer to rapid changes in water level were measured by raising or depressing the head in the monitoring wells and rapidly recording the head at a number of time intervals. A solid PVC slug was employed to raise or lower the head in the monitoring wells. For each test well,the initial water level was measured prior to introducing the slug. The slug was then lowered into the test well (slug-in test). Head measurements were recorded using a pressure transducer and datalogger. The data collected was transferred to I a microcomputer for storage and analysis. After the well recovered subsequent to the slug- in test,the slug was removed from the test well and the process repeated. The data obtained during the discreet interval testing was evaluated using an empirical equation in order to estimate fracture conductivities. The test results from the bedrock boreholes revealed a wide range of conductivities for the various fracture zones, implying that some of the fracture zones transmit significant quantities of water while others do not. Estimated conductivities of the tested intervals ranged from 1.7 to 118.6 feet/day. Slug test data collected from the selected monitoring wells were evaluated using computer software, Super Slug 3.1 to determine hydraulic conductivities by the Bouwer and Rice Method. A wide range of conductivities (4.8 to 725 feet/ day) were also calculated for the tested fracture intervals. A summary of the aquifer test results is provided in Table 5-1.

' v JAOperations\MSDS\HRC MSDS Page 5 ATTACHMENT C INJECTION RATIONALE Groundwater concentrations of chlorinated organic compounds collected during contamination assessment and monitoring activities at the Old Buncombe County Landfill appear to be naturally attenuating. The County, consultants, and NCDENR Solid Waste Section decided to initiate a program for one impacted transect on the site as a short-term study to evaluate the effectiveness of the application of Hydrogen Release Compound (HRC) in a fractured rock environment to accelerate and enhance the observed natural attenuation of the chlorinated organics. Through discussion among the parties it was determined that a two year program would allow sufficient time to observe and evaluate the impacts. The use of Hydrogen Release Compound (HRC) is being considered in order to accelerate the breakdown of chlorinated compounds by naturally occurring microorganisms that obtain energy by transferring electrons from donors to acceptor compounds. During a process called reductive dechlorination, electrons are transferred from donor compounds (such as carbon substrates, petroleum hydrocarbons, volatile fatty acids, and/or natural organic compounds) to chlorinated compounds (such as tetrachloroethene, trichloroethene, dichloroethene, trichloroethane, dichloroethane, and polychlorinated benzenes). In this process, electrons are transferred to chlorinated compounds, and chlorine atoms are replaced with hydrogen atoms. For instance, chlorinated ethenes are biodegraded by sequential replacement of chlorine atoms from tetrachloroethene (four chlorine atoms) to trichloroethene (three chlorine atoms) to dichloroethene (two chlorine atoms) to vinyl chloride (one chlorine atom) to ethene(no chlorine atoms). HRC is a polylactate ester that is manufactured as a viscous gel and has a consistency similar to that of cold honey. When the HRC is mixed with water, lactate is slowly released providing additional electron donor compounds (food sources), thus increasing the rate of the reductive dechlorination process. Under the influence of HRC, this process may continue at an accelerated rate for up to 18 months. ATTACHMENT D INJECTION PROCEDURE AND EQUIPMENT A pilot-scale test will be conducted in order to determine whether the introduction of HRC will accelerate the observed natural attenuation of chlorinated hydrocarbons at the Old Buncombe County Landfill. The pilot-scale test will consist of injecting HRC into bedrock fractures located upgradient of monitoring well cluster 17 and monitoring the effect on groundwater concentrations in MW-17-60 and MW-17-187. The injection depths will be determined based on the geophysical analysis performed on an exploratory borehole installed within 25 feet of well cluster 17. Temperature, fluid resistivity, and caliper logging will be conducted and a downhole video camera will be .utilized to identify the major fracture zones to a depth of approximately 200 feet. In the event that the pilot borehole only intercepts as single fracture, a second borehole will be considered in the vicinity of monitoring well cluster 17. The approximate location of the exploratory borehole is shown in Figure 1, and historical chlorinated hydrocarbon concentrations are shown in Table 1. HRC will be placed in the two most conductive fracture zones using separate boreholes and injection wells to prevent possible cross contamination between factures. The injection boreholes will be drilled to the fracture depths, and the fracture zone intervals will be screened using 4-inch diameter 0.40-inch slotted Schedule 80 PVC screen. A pneumatic packer assembly will be emplaced above the top of the screen and the HRC will be pressure injected using a Geoprobe GS 2000 injection pump.. � rF I Vw -"150 75 0 150 MW- SCALE: 1" = 150' LEGEND MW-21- GROUNDWATER3" Mw MONITORING WELL fall ' HRC APPLICATION® ' M `�r ` i y w BOREHOLE ��� m ;€#+s O'K j APPROXIMATE AREAL EXTENT r OF LANDFILL WASTE ' P` MwTh `3'fI Ali 's#r t tFu , Fo j4v 'tit s r'^S� "'04'�j+y�#� �i "1�'r'h m lE 1tJ,.1 4 ''.f ,r, 17 (ABAN , 3: E� 1 �3€ igi h Tivi�jftx > L,�'r Rra ty t ��y lG¢}[ �i�FhLt 3 44fft'.yv dir7r€}R-fLi i �('i t�c 'rx S �r'Iy° 1LiY`rt 5 -m{lf zb xltrsryt, +*r �!`- L x !
