I <br /> Proposed Everett Hotel Property Environmental Site Characterization and <br /> IEverett, Washington Remediation Recommendations <br /> I cleanup indicated no detectable diesel- or motor-oil-range TPH in ground water sample EB-1, <br /> and diesel- and motor-oil-range TPH concentrations in the decon water sample were below the <br /> MTCA cleanup levels. Gasoline-range TPH and BTEX concentrations in the EB-1 ground <br /> I water sample were also found to be non-detectable. Detectable concentrations of <br /> gasoline-range TPH and xylenes were measured in the decon water sample, but these <br /> concentrations were below the MTCA cleanup level. The analytical laboratory results are <br /> I summarized below in Table 4. Copies of the analytical laboratory reports for the ground water <br /> testing performed are provided in Appendix B. <br /> ITable 4 <br /> Summary of Analytical Laboratory Tes ng- Ground Water <br /> ITPH(µg/L) BTEX (pg/L) <br /> Motor <br /> IWell Date Diesel Oil Gasoline Benzene Toluene Ethylbenzene Xylenes <br /> EB 1 1/22/09 <50 <250 <100 <1 <1 <1 <3 <br /> Decon 1/22/09 310* 280* 170 <1 <1 <1 3 <br /> I Water <br /> Decon 6/12/09 NT NT <100 <0.25 4.0 <0.25 0.40** <br /> Water 1 <br /> I Decon 6/12/09 NT NT <100 <0.25 15 <0.25 <0.75 <br /> Water#2 <br /> MTCA --- 500 500 800/1,000*** 5 1,000 700 1,000 t�/ <br /> I TPH = total petroleum hydrocarbons. <br /> NT-Not Tested. <br /> MTCA = Model Toxics Control Act Method A cleanup level(Chapter 173-340-900 WAC). <br /> I All results are presented in microgram per liter(µg/L)units; 1 µg/L is equivalent to 1 part per billion. <br /> Values preceded by "<" represent analyte concentrations below the method detection limit indicated. <br /> *Results following silica gel cleanup. <br /> **O-xylene only; m,p-xylenes were <0.50 ug/L. <br /> I ***The cleanup level for gasoline-range TPH is 800 µg/L if benzene is present or 1,000 µg/L if benzene is not present. <br /> II <br /> Waste Water Analysis <br /> Samples of the water generated during decontamination of the drilling equipment was also <br /> I collected and analyzed for disposal characterization purposes. At the time of sample <br /> collection, the "decon" water was stored on-site in steel drums. The suite of analyses <br /> conducted on the sample of decon water generated during our initial field exploration was <br /> I similar to that conducted on the ground water sample. Analyses conducted on decon water <br /> samples collected at the time of our June exploration were limited to gasoline range TPH and <br /> BTEX compounds. The initial analysis of the decon water sample collected at the time of our <br /> IJanuary 2009 study indicated detectable concentrations of diesel- and motor-oil-range TPH; <br /> however, the laboratory report indicated that the chromatographic patterns produced by the <br /> analysis were not consistent with those typical for these petroleum products.
