ASPECT CONSULTING <br />90 FINAL PROJECT NO. AS190583A-08  MAY 21, 2025 <br />6.5.2 Unit B <br />The explorations and IA areas within Unit B, including IA compliance soil sample <br />locations, are depicted on Figure 6-B1. For current conditions following the IA, the <br />constituents detected in one or more samples of Unit B media at concentrations exceeding <br />their respective industrial PCLs are as follows: <br /> TPH-D+O in soil and groundwater <br /> Total cPAHs (TEQ) in soil and groundwater <br /> Arsenic, copper, lead, mercury, nickel, and zinc in soil and groundwater <br /> Naphthalene in soil and groundwater <br /> The following SVOCs in groundwater at a single location for each: <br />2-methylnaphthalene, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, dibenzofuran, fluorene, and <br />pentachlorophenol <br /> Vinyl chloride in groundwater <br /> Total PCBs in soil <br /> Un-ionized ammonia in intertidal porewater <br />Constituents that were not detected at concentrations greater than the industrial PCLs in <br />soil or groundwater samples collected within Unit B include TPH-G, BTEX, <br />dioxins/furans, metals, VOCs, and SVOCs, which are not included in the list above. <br />The sample locations for constituents detected at concentrations exceeding the PCLs in <br />Unit B are presented on Figures 6-B2 through 6-B18. The data for constituents detected at <br />concentrations exceeding the PCLs are summarized by constituent group in the following <br />subsections. <br />6.5.2.1 Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons and PAHs <br />Gasoline-range TPH and BTEX were not detected above the PCLs in soil or groundwater <br />samples collected from within Unit B (Tables 6-13 and 6-14). Following the two IAs, <br />concentrations of TPH-D+O (as Bunker C fuel oil) remain in soil and groundwater above <br />the PCLs only within the USTs 71, 72, 73 IA area of Unit B (Figure 6-B2). <br />6.5.2.1.1 Soil TPH and PAH Data <br />Within Unit B, seven IA areas focused on the removal of TPH-contaminated material: the <br />Rail Car Dumper area, the BA-MW-6 area, the UST 70 area, the Heavy Duty Shop Sump <br />area, the USTs 71, 72, 73 area, the REC2-MW-5 area, and the Digesters Trench area <br />(Figure 6-B1). While the CMS area was remediated in the second IA primarily to address <br />PCBs in soil that were a source to groundwater, it also removed localized naphthalene <br />exceedances in groundwater and segments of historical Bunker C fuel lines with <br />associated soil contamination. The CMS area excavation was completed over a total <br />duration of approximately 7 weeks, during which time, construction dewatering was <br />conducted frequently to remove accumulated groundwater to facilitate soil removal. The <br />groundwater removed from the CMS area excavation was combined with groundwater <br />extracted from other excavations happening concurrently during the second IA, so the
