Section D:Summary of Finding/Comments(Attach additional sheets of narrative and checklists as necessary)
Notes writen by Ed Watson.
The Quarterly report of groundwater contaminants indicate there are currently exceedance for
Manganese(Mn) of 17.2 ug/L, 1,2-DCE AT 100 UG/I,4-Bromoflurobenzene at 100 ug/L and Toluene
at 101 ug/L. Although these constituents are above the 2L standard for groundwater,they are reduced
from previously report groundwater laboratory results indicating,the system is operating to reduce
VOC impact to groundwater.
The waste carbon is extracted through an extraction port that is connected to the top of the Carbon
canister to allow for easy extraction of the spent Carbon. The system is set up as an in-line two
canister system which allows one tank to perform extraction of solids and the second tank to act as a
polishing tank. The system is reversible to allow for the tanks to be reversed to allow for extraction of
the spent Carbon in the lead tank making the second tank the primary tank.
The system has sample ports that allow for mid-point sampling which helps with monitoring
breakthrough of constituents in the activated Carbon in the vessels. A copy of the spent Carbo
Manifest was provided to see the spent Carbon was being properly disposed of by Evoqua and a copy
of the 10/28/2015 manifest was provided.
The files were up to date and in order. Samples are able to be extracted at the mid-point of the in-line
tanks and at the end of the treatment. Because the travel distance of the system drain line,we were
not able to view out-flow that empties into the un-named tributary to Erwin's Creek.
