This book was released on 1998 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP) presents the proposed scope of work to be conducted at Installation Restoration Program (IRP) Site SD-11, Aircraft Ground Equipment (AGE) Maintenance Area, at Beale Air Force Base (AFB), Yuba County, California. The AGE Maintenance Area includes a backfilled underground storage tank (UST) excavation and adjoining property which has been impacted by petroleum hydrocarbon releases to the subsurface. This SAP is intended to guide soil and soil vapor sampling at the AGE Maintenance Area to document the effectiveness of bioventing remediation of petroleum-hydrocarbon-contaminated soils and to support a no further investigation (NFI) recommendation for the three former USTs previously located at the site. This SAP consist of eight sections, including this introduction. Section 2 includes site description, history, and summaries of previous investigations and remediation activities. Section 3 includes the proposed SAP. Section 4 provides a discussion of the criteria that will be used to support a NFI recommendation for the former USTs and petroleum-hydrocarbon-contaminated soils within the AGE Maintenance Area. Analytical results from the sampling activities and recommendations will be presented in a results report as described in Section 5. A proposed schedule for the sampling activities and submittal of the results report is included in Section 6. Section 7 provides points of contact. Section 8 provides references cited in this SAP.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This confirmation sampling and analysis plan (SAP) is intended to guide soil, soil gas, and groundwater sampling at Spill Site No. 1 to document the effectiveness of bioventing for the remediation of petroleum-hydrocarbon-contaminated soils and to provide data for a risk-based assessment of contaminants remaining in site soils and groundwater. Spill Site No. 1 is the location of a release of jet fuel from former underground storage tanks (USTs) and/or associated product piping. The site is part of a solid waste management unit (SWMU) that includes the former UST system fuel pipeline and several other sites. Closure activities for this entire SWMU will be performed by Haliburton NUS (HNUS) at a later date. The objective of the confirmation sampling described in this SAP is to document the effectiveness of soil remediation at Spill Site No. 1 and to demonstrate compliance with ASTM (1995) RBCA guidance for future site closure. The proposed confirmation sampling described in Section 4 targets vadose zone soils, soil gas, and groundwater in the vicinity of former Pumphouse No. 4. Soil and groundwater data will be used to prepare a streamlined risk-based assessment of remaining petroleum hydrocarbon contamination at the site, and groundwater data also will be used to evaluate the rate of natural chemical attenuation occurring in groundwater. The sampling effort is being performed as part of the AFCEE Extended Bioventing project. It is anticipated that analytical results will support an Air Force-directed no-further-response-action-planned (NFPAP) decision for this site. This SAP consists of nine sections, including this introduction.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Sampling and Analysis (SAP) presents the project requirements for proposed soil sampling to support the White Oak Creek Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. During the Data Quality Objectives process for the project, it was determined that limited surface soils sampling is need to supplement the historical environmental characterization database. The primary driver for the additional sampling is the need to identify potential human health and ecological risks at various sites that have not yet proceeded through a remedial investigation. These sites include Waste Area Grouping (WAG)3, WAG 4, WAG 7, and WAG 9. WAG 4 efforts are limited to nonradiological characterization since recent seep characterization activities at the WAG have defined the radiological problem there.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This field sampling and analysis (S & A) plan has been developed as part of the Department of Energy's (DOE's) remedial investigation (RI) of Waste Area Grouping (WAG) 2 at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The S & A plan has been written in support of the remedial investigation (RI) plan for WAG 2 (ORNL 1990). WAG 2 consists of White Oak Creek (WOC) and its tributaries downstream of the ORNL main plant area, White Oak Lake (WOL), White Oak Creek embayment (WOCE) on the Clinch River, and the associated floodplain and subsurface environment (Fig. 1.1). The WOC system is the surface drainage for the major ORNL WAGs and has been exposed to a diversity of contaminants from operations and waste disposal activities in the WOC watershed. WAG 2 acts as a conduit through which hydrologic fluxes carry contaminants from upgradient areas to the Clinch River. Water, sediment, soil, and biota in WAG 2 are contaminated and continue to receive contaminants from upgradient WAGs. This document describes the following: an overview of the RI plan, background information for the WAG 2 system, and objectives of the S & A plan; the scope and implementation of the first 2 years of effort of the S & A plan and includes recent information about contaminants of concern, organization of S & A activities, interactions with other programs, and quality assurance specific to the S & A activities; provides details of the field sampling plans for sediment, surface water, groundwater, and biota, respectively; and describes the sample tracking and records management plan.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document is an addendum to the Phase 2 Sampling and Analysis Plan for the Clinch River Remedial Investigation (DOE 1993). The Department of Energy--Oak Ridge Operations (DOE-ORO) is proposing this addendum to the US Envianmental Protection Agency, Region IV (EPA-IV), and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) as a reduced sampling program on the Clinch River arm of Watts Bar Reservoir and on Poplar Creek. DOE-ORO is proposing to maximize the use of existing data and minimize the collection of new data for water, sediment, and biota during Phase 2 of the Clinch River Remedial Investigation. The existing data along with the additional data collected in Phase 2 would be used to perform a baseline risk assessment and make remedial decisions. DOE-ORO considers that the existing data, the additional data collected in Phase 2, and on-site remedial investigation data would be sufficient to understand the nature and extent of the contamination problem in the Clinch River, perform a baseline risk assessment, and make remedial decisions. This addendum is organized in three sections. The first section provides background information and describes a rationale for modifying the Phase 2 Sampling and Analysis Plan. Section 2 presents a summary of the existing data for the Clinch River arm of Watts Bar Reservoir and an evaluation of the sufficiency of this data for a baseline human health and ecological risk assessment. Section 3 describes the revised Phase 2 Sampling and Analysis Plan for surface water, sediment, and biota in the Clinch River OU and in the Poplar Creek OU.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Source Area Investigation Plan and Recommendation for Removal Action (SAIP/RRA) was prepared in support of the regulatory working group for Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Waste Area Grouping (WAG) 5. The purpose of the plan is to focus the investigation of and initiate potential groundwater seepage control actions for contaminant source areas at WAG 5. The SAIP/RRA addresses four discrete groundwater discharge areas (seeps) in or near WAG 5 that have been identified as significant contributors to the contaminant flux released from ORNL at White Oak Dam. Combined, these four seeps (designated Areas A, B, C, and D) contribute 25--50% and 20--45% of the total flux of tritium and strontium-90, respectively, in the White Oak Creek watershed. To reduce the release of contaminants from these areas and prevent further degradation of surface water, non-time-critical removal actions are proposed at the two areas characterized by discrete seeps: Areas C and D. An Engineering --Evaluation/Cost Analysis will be initiated to identify and evaluate feasible removal actions for these areas. Further investigation activities are planned at all four areas, and will emphasize, identifying and characterizing the contaminant source terms and migration pathways.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Sampling and Analysis Plan addresses surface water monitoring, sampling, and analysis activities that will be conducted in support of the Environmental Monitoring Plan for Waste Area Grouping (WAG) 6. WAG 6 is a shallow-burial land disposal facility for low-level radioactive waste at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a research facility owned by the US Department of Energy and managed by Martin Marietta Energy Systems, Inc. Surface water monitoring will be conducted at nine sites within WAG 6. Activities to be conducted will include the installation, inspection, and maintenance of automatic flow-monitoring and sampling equipment and manual collection of various water and sediment samples. The samples will be analyzed for various organic, inorganic, and radiological parameters. The information derived from the surface water monitoring, sampling, and analysis will aid in evaluating risk associated with contaminants migrating off-WAG, and will be used in calculations to establish relationships between contaminant concentration (C) and flow (Q). The C-Q relationship will be used in calculating the cumulative risk associated with the off-WAG migration of contaminants.
Download or read book Alternatives for Managing the Nation s Complex Contaminated Groundwater Sites written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-02-27 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the United States, thousands of hazardous waste sites are contaminated with chemicals that prevent the underlying groundwater from meeting drinking water standards. These include Superfund sites and other facilities that handle and dispose of hazardous waste, active and inactive dry cleaners, and leaking underground storage tanks; many are at federal facilities such as military installations. While many sites have been closed over the past 30 years through cleanup programs run by the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. EPA, and other state and federal agencies, the remaining caseload is much more difficult to address because the nature of the contamination and subsurface conditions make it difficult to achieve drinking water standards in the affected groundwater. Alternatives for Managing the Nation's Complex Contaminated Groundwater Sites estimates that at least 126,000 sites across the U.S. still have contaminated groundwater, and their closure is expected to cost at least $110 billion to $127 billion. About 10 percent of these sites are considered "complex," meaning restoration is unlikely to be achieved in the next 50 to 100 years due to technological limitations. At sites where contaminant concentrations have plateaued at levels above cleanup goals despite active efforts, the report recommends evaluating whether the sites should transition to long-term management, where risks would be monitored and harmful exposures prevented, but at reduced costs.
Download or read book Elasmobranch Biodiversity Conservation and Management written by Sarah L. Fowler and published by IUCN. This book was released on 2002 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Darwin Elasmobranch Biodiversity Conservation and Management project in Sabah held a three-day international seminar that included a one-day workshop in order to highlight freshwater and coastal elasmobranch conservation issues in the region and worldwide, to disseminate the result of the project to other Malaysian states and countries, and to raise awareness of the importance of considering aspects of elasmobranch biodiversity in the context of nature conservation, commercial fisheries management, and for subsistence fishing communities. These proceedings contain numerous peer-reviewed papers originally presented at the seminar, which cover a wide range of topics, with particular reference to species from freshwater and estuarine habitats. The workshop served to develop recommendations concerning the future prospects of elasmobranch fisheries, biodiversity, conservation and management. This paper records those conclusions, which highlight the importance of elasmobranchs as top marine predators and keystone species, noting that permanent damage to shark and ray populations are likely to have serious and unexpected negative consequences for commercial and subsistence yields of other important fish stocks.
