ASPECT CONSULTING <br />70 FINAL PROJECT NO. AS190583A-08  MAY 21, 2025 <br />the collective data provided on Tables 6-7 and 6-8 for soil and groundwater, respectively. <br />The sub-slab and indoor air data (all constituents) for the warehouse (in Unit A) are <br />presented by themselves (Tables 6-15a through 6-15d). In addition to presenting them in <br />unit-specific data tables, the data from the shoreline monitoring wells, intertidal <br />porewater/seep samples, and the surface water samples are presented by themselves <br />(Table 6-22) for presentation of shoreline water quality (Section 6.5.7). For each <br />constituent, the tables provide the medium-specific PCLs, and concentrations exceeding <br />respective PCLs are highlighted. Table 6-6 provides explanatory notes and defines the <br />abbreviations used in Tables 6-7 through 6-22. <br />As described in Section 5.3.2, the soil PCLs based on groundwater protection are different <br />for unsaturated soil versus saturated soil (see Tables 5-3 and 5-4). Each soil sample in the <br />data set has been designated as either unsaturated or saturated soil based on a <br />conservatively high water-table condition measured in May 2014. The soil data tables <br />referenced in this section present the designation for each soil sample as saturated or <br />unsaturated soil, and the exceedance designations in the data tables account for that <br />difference. <br />The soil data tables present each soil sample’s depth interval below the future grade that is <br />currently provided for in design specifications for the third IA (refer to Section 4.7). A <br />vast majority of the soil samples were collected when the CM was in place, and the boring <br />logs in Appendix B, and prior documents for the Site, include sample depths relative to the <br />grade existing at the time they were collected, which are different than presented in this <br />report. Accordingly, the soil data tables in this document also include the elevation24 for <br />each soil sample interval to provide an absolute reference. <br />In accordance with MTCA, the PCLs for cPAHs and dioxins/furans are based on the total <br />toxic equivalent quotient/concentration (TEQ) of the most carcinogenic compound in <br />those constituent groups, as follows: <br /> Total cPAHs (TEQ) is the toxic equivalent concentration of benzo(a)pyrene calculated <br />in accordance with MTCA (WAC 173-340-708[8][e]) to evaluate the human health <br />toxicity of cPAH mixtures. Nondetected values are included in the summation at one- <br />half the laboratory’s analytical reporting limit. <br /> Total 2,3,7,8-TCDD (TEQ) is the toxic equivalent concentration of 2,3,7,8- <br />tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) calculated in accordance with MTCA (WAC <br />173-340-708[8][d]) to evaluate the human health toxicity of dioxin/furan mixtures. <br />Nondetected values are included in the summation at one-half the reporting limit. <br />In addition, the total toxic mobility equivalent concentration (TMEQ) for total cPAHs was <br />calculated to evaluate the potential for cPAH mixtures in soil to impact groundwater <br />through the leaching pathway. The total cPAH (TMEQ) was calculated in accordance with <br />the procedures outlined in Ecology’s Implementation Memorandum #10 (Ecology, <br />2015c). The total cPAH (TMEQ) is compared to soil PCLs for the protection of <br />groundwater (Section 5.3.2.2) while the total cPAH (TEQ) is compared to soil PCLs for <br /> <br />24 Elevations relative the NAVD88 vertical datum.
