Gentlemen:
You are respectfully requested to submit, in writing, with a photocopy to the Depart-
ment of Environmental Quality Engineering, a statement of the corrective measures you
have taken at Leggs Hill in response to recommendations based on a site observation
by me (July 5, 1984) and by a D.E.Q.E. inspector (July 19, 1984) . The items to be
addressed are the following:
I. Letter dated July 9, 1984 from Robert E. Blenkhorn to Thomas Mackey & Sons:
1. If you intend to operate a sanitary landfill in the Leggs Hill area,
you must, under the Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 111, Section
150A, obtain site approval from the Board of Health.
I1. Letter dated July 25, 1984 from Richard J. Chalpin to Mr. Robert Blenkhorn:
1. NEPCO should be informed that anything other than clean fill., in-
cluding fill mixed with solid wastes, should be transported to an
approved sanitary landfill; and that further disposal of fill ma-
terial, which includes solid wastes, at the Mackey site is pro-
hibited without a Salem Board of Health assignment.
2. Certain Mackey site wastes--namely, asphalt paving, roofing ma-
terials, four (4) empty oil tanks, and other refuse--appear to
have been dumped in violation of the Massachusetts solid waste
laws, specifically M.G.L. Chapter 111, Section 150A. These
materials are to be removed in a manner approved by the Board
of Health.
3. Immediate attention should be given to the unacceptable slope
of the filled material at the Mackey site, as this slope is quite
hazardous.
4 . Thomas Mackey & Sons, Inc. shall abide by all disposal restric-
tions at the ultimate disposal site assigned by the Salem Board
of Health or at any other approved site.

The following items, from letter dated July 9, 1984 (above) , have received attention:
1. Goldberg-Zaino Associates, Inc. has tested samples of the site
contents and provided a detailed ananlysis of same (see letter
of June 21, 1984 from GZA to Mr. John Webster of Fluor Construc-
tion, Inc.) .
2. Fluor Constructors, Inc. has implemented a satisfactory dust-
control program (see letter of July 9, 1984 from Fluor Construc-
tion to the Board of Health) .

Dear Mr. Blankhorn:
On July 19, 1984, personnel from the Metropolitan Boston/Northeast Regional
Office of the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering visited the New
England Power Company (NEPCO) in Salem to inspect the area at the plant from
which fill had recently been removed. Attending the site visit and supplying
site information were the following: Mr. Joe Kwasnick, NEPCO, Mr. John
Webster of Fluor Constructors, Inc. , NEPCO's construction contractor; Mr. Jim
Okum of Goldberg-Zoino and Associates (GZA) , geological consultant; in addi-
tion to Mr. Steve Johnson of the Department of Environmental Quality Engineering.
The excavated area was constructed as a runoff collection pond. Four to six
feet of apparantly native soil had been removed along with some residual coal ,
particles. According to Mr. Webster, the area had been used for coal storage
and, before excavation began, the coal was moved to another place on-site. Thus,
only the coal particles that were not scraped up and moved would be found in
the fill material. Inspection of the banks of the pond area showed a glacial
till that did not appear contaminated or mixed with any fly ash or other solid
waste.
The site that received the 8,000 yards of fill from NEPCO was then in-
spected. The location of the "Mackey" site is on the west side of Legg Hill
near the Salem/Marblehead town line, less than 1/4 mile from the source of a
backup,i water supply for the Town of Marblehead. The fill from the power plant
was pointed out and, again, the soil appeared to be over 95% native soil inter-
mixed with small coal particles. No fly ash was observed at the time of the
inspection, and Mr. Webster stated that no fly ash had been seen during the
excavation. Analyses of the NEPCO fill provided by GZA indicate normal, back-
ground levels of base/neutrals and heavy metals. Had fly ash been a significant
constituent of the fill, the levels of these contaminants would have been
elevated. There were, however, other materials at the Mackey site unrelated
to the NEPCO fill which included ashphalt paving, roofing materials, four large,
empty oil tanks and other refuse disposed in an indiscrimanate and unregulated
manner. In addition, the slope of the filled area was dangerously steep, posing
a safety problem should excessive erosion of the banks occur.
r
Mr. Robert Blenkhorn
July 25 1984
Page 2.
Based upon these observations, the following comments and recommendations
are made:
1) There does not appear to be an environmental or public health
threat from the fill brought from NEPCO to the Mackey site.
2) NEPCO should be informed that anything other than clean fill,
including fill mixed with solid wastes, should be transported
to an approved sanitary landfill; and further disposal of
fill material, which includes solid wastes, at the Mackey site
is prohibited without a Salem Board of Health site assignment.
3) Certain dumpings at the Mackey site appear to be in violation
of Massachusetts solid waste laws, specifically M.G.L. Chapter
111, Section 150A. No further disposal of solid waste material
should take place of this site without a. Salem Board of Health
site assignment.
4) The safety threat presented by the unacceptable slope of the
filled material at the Mackey site should be rectified immediately.
5) A site assignment by the Salem Board of Health for the Mackey site
should consider the proximity of a water supply, and enforce re-
strictions on disposal, accordingly.
If there: are-anyfurther questions regarding this matter, please feel free
to contact me at the letterhead address, or 935-2160.

Dear Mr. Blenkhorn:
Enclosed you will find three (3) different data sheets for material being
taken from the Salem Harbor Station coal pile area and hauled to the
Mackey property located off__Leggss Hill-Road.
The first set of samples were taken in the coal pile run-off pond excavation
and have an interpretation attached from Goldberg-Zoino and Associates, Inc.
The second set of samples were taken along the East side of the coal pile
next to the wharf. The GZA interpretation is scheduled to be available on
11 July 1984. The third set of samples were taken at the direction of the
Conservation Commission from piles of material dumped at the Ragone Landfill.
The .GZA interpretation is scheduled to be available on 11 July 1984.
)'The preliminary interpretations indicate acceptable material for a landfill
outside a "wet lands" or "flood plain" area.
The following dust control measures are being performed at present; the
material as it comes out of the ground is moist, does not require "wetting
down". The trucks are placing a canvas tarp over the load for transport.
Starting Tuesday, 10 July 1984, a water truck is available to the landfill
site on Leggs Hill Road.
D.E.Q.E. is being contacted as to their regulations regarding this material.
Should you have need of additional information, please contact R. B. Taylor
or J. M. Webster at this office (617) 741-1502.

Re: Interpretation of Laboratory
Results for Soils
Salem Harbor Station
Salem, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Webster:
In accordance with your request , GZA is transmitting this report of
interpretation of chemical results for soil samples collected from the Salem
Harbor Power Station.
On June 11 , 1984, GZA collected three composite samples of fill soils from the
site of the proposed Coal Pile Run—Off Pond. Two of these samples were taken
from the walls of existing excavations; one was taken from a test pit dug for
this purpose. Each sample consisted of three subsamples taken from the
sample ' s proximate location. The collected samples were representitive of
both the depth and extent of the proposed'_excavation.
To allow an evaluation of the possibly hazardous nature of these soils , GZA
sent the samples to Resource Analysts Inc. (RAI) for chemical analysis. The
samples were tested for leachable heavy metals by the EP Toxicity test as
designed by the U.S.E.P.A. In addition, the samples were analyzed for
Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) using the Base/Neutral Extractable
Organics GC/MS EPA Method 625. These parameters were chosen because of the
suspected presence of fly ash in the fill soils . Fly ash is frequently
suspected .of being a hazardous waste due to the possible presence of both
heavy metals and PAHs.
The results presented in the laboratory report show all metals to be below the
level of detection with the exception of Barium. Barium is the most common
and least toxic of the heavy metals. The Barium concentration must exceed 100
mg/l for a material to be considered hazardous ; these soils are far below
these levels . These soils thus do not demonstrate potential to leach heavy
metals.

Fluor Construction - June 212 1484 - File No. M-4260 - Page 2
The results of the Base/Neutral Extractable Organics Analysis report the
presence of five different-PAHs. With the exception of phenanthrene , the PAHs
are present at concentrations considered to be typical of soils from an urban
environment. The concentration of phenanthrene probably reflects the presence
of some coal or oil, both of which are known to contain phenanthrene. Overall
the concentrations of PAHs present in the soil samples do not appear to pose a
hazard to human health or the environment , and in general are not
elevated above those typically found in a normal urban environment.
It is GZA' s opinion based on the sample results discussed herein that the
soils from the proposed excavation are not a hazardous waste , nor would they
pose a threat to human health when used as a fill material as proposed.
Sincerely,.

RE : Analysis of black fill from R. Ragone property
Dear Pr. Fredrickson,
The material analyzed appears to be a coal or oil ash residues that had been
captured and stabilized in a lagoon system. The actual ash identification
would require further testing. Although the quantity of Petroleum hydrocarbons
found in the fill material did not exceed D E Q E guidelines for contaminated
soil , the proximity of the material to a wetland would pose a risk to surface
water contamination and aquatic organism toxicity.
I have enclosed the analysis data and gas chromatographic spectrograph for your
review.

ATTENTION: MR. ROBERT BLENKHORN
SUBJECT: DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CONCERN OF SOILS ANALYSIS
Dear Mr. Blenkhorn:
Enclosed you will find three (3) different data sheets for material being
taken from the Salem Harbor Station coal pile area and hauled to the
Mackey property located of-f-Le'gg`s Hill Road_
The first set of samples were taken in the coal pile run-off pond excavation
and have an interpretation attached from Goldberg-Zoino and Associates, Inc.
The second set of samples were taken along the East side of the coal pile
next to the wharf. The GZA interpretation is scheduled to be available on
11 July 1984. The third set of samples were taken at the direction of the
Conservation Commission from piles of material dumped at the Ragone Landfill.
The GZA interpretation is scheduled to be available on 11 July 1984.
The preliminary interpretations indicate acceptable material for a landfill
outside a "wet lands" or "flood plain" area.
The following dust control measures are being performed at present; the
material as it comes out of the ground is moist, does not require "wetting
down". The trucks are placing a canvas tarp over the load for transport.
Starting Tuesday, 10 July 1984, a water truck is available to the landfill
site on Leggs Hill Road.
D.E.Q.E. is being contacted as to their regulations regarding this material.
Should you have need of additional information, please contact R. B. Taylor
or J. M. Webster at this office (617) 741-1502.

Re: Interpretation of Laboratory
Results for Soils
Salem Harbor Station
Salem, Massachusetts
Dear Mr. Webster:
In accordance with your request , GZA is transmitting this report of
interpretation of chemical results for soil samples collected from the Salem
Harbor Power Station.
On June 11 , 1984, GZA collected three composite samples of fill soils from the
site of the proposed Coal Pile Run-Off Pond. Two of these samples were taken
from the walls of existing excavations; one was taken from a test pit dug for
this purpose. Each sample consisted of three subsamples taken from the
sample ' s proximate location. The collected samples were representitive of
both the depth and extent of the proposed excavation.
To allow an evaluation of the possibly hazardous nature of these soils, GZA
sent the samples to Resource Analysts Inc. (RAI) for chemical analysis . The
samples were tested for leachable heavy metals by the EP Toxicity test as
designed by the U. S.E.P.A. In addition, the samples were analyzed for
Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) using the Base/Neutral Extractable
Organics GC/MS EPA Method 625. These parameters were chosen because of the
suspected presence of fly ash in the fill soils . Fly ash is frequently
suspected of being a hazardous waste due to the possible presence of both
heavy metals and PAHs.
The results presented in the laboratory report show all metals to be below the
level of detection with the exception of Barium. Barium is the most common
and least toxic of the heavy metals. The Barium concentration must exceed 100
mg/l for a material to be considered hazardous; these soils are far below
these levels . These soils thus do not demonstrate potential to leach heavy
metals.

Fluor _Construction - June 21 1984 - File No. M-4260 - Page 2
The results of the Base/Neutral Extractable Organics Analysis report the
presence of five different PAH9. With the exception of phenanthrene, the PAHs
are present at concentrations considered to be typical of soils from an urban
environment. The concentration of phenanthrene probably reflects the presence
of some coal or oil, both of which are known to contain phenanthrene. Overall
the concentrations of PAHs present in the soil samples do not appear to pose a
hazard to human health or the environment , and in general are not
elevated above those typically found in a normal urban environment.
It is GZA' s opinion based on the sample results discussed herein that the
soils from the proposed excavation are not a hazardous waste , nor would they
pose a threat to human health when used as a fill material as proposed.

Re: Interpretation of Laboratory
Results for Soil Samples -----"
Collected June 20, 1984 from
the Salem Harbor Station
Gentlemen:
In accordance with your request Goldberg-Zoino & Associates, Inc.
(GZA) is transmitting this report of interpretation of chemical
results for soil samples collected from the trench adjacent to
the road at the Salem Harbor Station.
On June 20 , 1984 , GZA collected three composite samples of fill
soils from an- excavated trench located adjacent to the coal pile
access road . Each composite sample consisted of three equal
portions from 1 foot, 3 feet, and the bottom of the excavation at
a designated sample station . The three sample stations were
chosen to be representative of the total excavation.
To allow an evaluation of the possibly hazardous nature of these
soils GZA forwarded the samples to Resource Analysts , Inc . , (RAI )
for chemical analysis . The samples were tested for leachable
heavy metals using the EP Toxicity test ( by EPA SW 846 Section
2. 1. 4 ) , Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons , PAHs , (by EPA method
for Base/Neutral Extractable Organics 625 ) , and for oil and
grease (Standard Methods 503D) . These parameters were chosen due
to the suspected presence of oil and/or fly ash in the fill soils.
Fly ash is frequently suspected of posessing hazardous properties
due to the possible presence of both leachable heavy metals and

i
Mr. John Webster - July 31; 1984 - File No. M-4260 - Page No. 2
PAHs . Any oil present in the soils would be measured as oil and
grease.
The results presented in the attached laboratory report show all
metals to be below the level of detection except for cadmium in
one sample. The level of cadmium in this sample is only barely
above the detection limit , and more than a hundred times lower
than the level considered to be indicative of a hazardous waste.
The soils thus do not demonstrate a potential to leach heavy
metals .
The results of the Base/Neutral Extractable organics Analysis
report the presence of four different PAHs , and one phthalate
ester . With the exception of phenanthrene, the PAHs are present
at concentrations considered to be typical of soils from an urban
environment. The slightly elevated level of phenanthrene is in
all likelihood due to either the coal or the small amount of oil
present in the soils , both of which are known to frequently
contain phenathrene. The concentrations of PAHs reported in the
soil samples do not appear likely to pose a hazard to human
health or the environment, and in general are not significantly
elevated above levels typically encountered in urban soils.
The phthalate ester, Bis (2-ethylhexyl) Phthalate, is reported in
each of the three samples. This compound is a common ingredient
in many plastic materials and very slow to degrade in the
environment. As a result it is ubiquitous in the environment.
It is commonly encountered as an analytical artifact in
Base/Neutral Extractable samples . GZA discussed these results at
length with RAI ' s Laboratory Director and concluded that these
results are not indicative of actual phthalate presence in the
soils . It is thus GZA ' s opinion that Bis ( 2-ethylhexyl )
Phthalate is not present in significant concentrations in the
soils .
The results of the oil and grease analysis showed between 70 and
120 parts per million (ppm) of oil and grease . These levels are
well below the 3 percent level which the Massachusetts Department
of Environmental Quality Engineering (DEQE ) uses as a cut off to
determine safe fill material.
Mr. John Webster - July 31, 1984 - File No. M-4260 - Page No. 3
in conclusion it is GZA ' s opinion based upon the sample results
described herein that the soils from the sampled excavation are
not a hazardous material , nor would they pose a threat to human
health when used as clean fill material.

Re: Interpretation of Laboratory
Results for Soils Collected (Tklzj)
June 26, 1984 from the
Ragone Fill Area
Dear Mr. Webster:
In accordance with your request , GZA is transmitting this report of
interpretation of chemical results for soil samples collected at the Ragone
Fill Area.
On June 26 , 1984 , GZA collected five composite samples of recently deposited
fill soils from the Ragone Fill Area in Salem, Massachusetts . It is our
understanding that this fill was brought to the fill site from the earlier
examined excavation at Salem Harbor Power Station. Samples were taken in
accordance with the directions of Mr. Charlie Fredrickson of the Salem
Conservation Commission, who was present at the time of sampling.
To evaluate whether the fill soils contained chemicals which may have rendered
the soil a toxic or hazardous waste , GZA forwarded the samples to Resource
Analysts , Inc . (RAI) for chemical analysis . The samples were analyzed for
leachable heavy metals by the EP Toxicity test (EPA SW 846 Section 2. 1 .4) ;
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs ) (EPA Method for Base/Neutral
Extractable Organics 625) ; for oil and grease (Standard Methods 503D) ; and for
both EP extractable and bulk vanadium (Total Vanadium by EPA 600/4-79-020
Digestion Method 305D, analysis per Standard Methods 303C) . These parameters
were chosen due to the suspected presence of oil and fly ash. If oil were
present, it would result in an elevated oil and grease measurement . Fly ash ,
if present , might result in elevated levels of PAHs, leachable heavy metals,
and both bulk and extractable vanadium. It should be noted that elevated bulk
vanadium levels could also be due to the presence of coal in the soil samples.

The results presented in the attached laboratory report show all metals to be
below the level of detection, except for barium in all five samples , and
arsenic in two samples . Barium is the most common and least toxic of the
heavy metals. The barium concentration must be more than 200 times higher
than that present in these soils for the soils to be considered hazardous .
Arsenic is present in two of the samples at the detection limit. For the soil
to be considered toxic due to arsenic it would have to show more than 100
times as much arsenic by this test. The soils, therefore, do not demonstrate
a significant potential to leach heavy metals into the environment .
The results of the Base/Neutral Extractable Organic Compound analysis showed a
total of six different PAHs and two different phthalate esters . The PAHs are
present at levels considered to be at or slightly above concentrations typical
of urban soils. Both soil and coal also contain some PAHs ; and the presence
of even small amounts of oil or coal in the fill could account for the PAHs in
the soils. The phthalate esters reported as present in the soil samples are
common ingredients in many plastic materials and products . They are
ubiquitous in the environment and are frequently encountered at low
concentrations in environmental samples . Whether they are actually present in
the soils or are an artifact of the sampling anad analsyis process is always
open to question. After discussions with RAI' s Laboratory Director , it is
GZA's opinion that the phthalates reported as present in these soils are in
fact not truly constituents of the soil but the results of contamination
during sampling and analysis: Overall , it does not appear that the soils
contain levels of any Base/Neutral Extractable Compounds which would be
considered to pose a threat to human health.
The results of the oil and grease analysis ranged from 230 to 1100 ppm
(milligrams of oil and grease per kilogram of soil) . These levels are well
below the 3 percent level (30 ,000 milligrams oil and grease per kilogram of
soil) set by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Quality Engineering
(DEQE) as to what is suitable for material going to a sanitary landfill.
The analyses for vanadium reported a range for bulk vanadium from 180 to about
500 ppm, and an EP extractable vanadium range of less than 0. 2 to 1 . 2 mg/1 of
extract . The interpretation of vanadium levels is complicated by the lack of
published standards for this metal. Vanadium is known to be present in both
oil and coal , as well as in their respective ashes . It appears that little of
the vanadium present in the soil samples is extractable, suggesting that it is
present in a nonenvironmentally mobile form, possibly still part of the coal .
This observation leads GZA to conclude that the presence of vanadium in these
soils does not pose a threat to human health when disposed of in a sanitary
landfill.
Mr. John Webster - File No. M-4260 - July 31 1984 - Page 3
Overall , it is GZA' s opinion that the soils which are the subject of this
report have not demonstrated characteristics in our chemical testing which
suggest that they are hazardous or toxic in nature . Furthur , it is GZA's
opinion that these soils can be safely used as fill material without posing a
threat to human health.

Dear Mr. 8lankhorn:
On July 19 1984 personnel tion the �eropnLitanBoston/Northeast
Regional,
Office of the Department of Environmental Quality lingincering visited rhe New
England Power Company (NEPCO) in Salem to inspect the ;.arcs: at the plant from
which fill had recently been removed . Attending the site visit and supplyin},
site information were the following: Mr. Joe Kwasnick, NEPCO, Mr. John
Webster of Fluor Constructors, Inc. , NEPOO'siconstruction contractor; Mr. Jim
Okum of Goldberg-Zoine and Associatos (G%,1) , geological consultant-; in addi-
tion to Mr. Steve Johnson of the Department A Environmental Quality Engineering.
The excavated area was construe L.d as a runoli collection pond . Poi .. to siz
foci of apparently native soil hod lwep rrmmovvd along with some residual cool
particles. According to Mr. Webster, the :area had been used for coal storage
and, before excavation began, the con ! wn.s moved to another place on-nitre. Thus,
only the coal particles that were not scraped up and moved would he found in
the fill material. Inspection of the hanks of the pond arra showed. i glacial
till that did not appear contaminaied or mixed with :any fly ash orother solid
waste.
The site that received the 8,000 yards of fill from NEPCO ?:as then in-
spected. The location of the "Markey" Qte is on the west side of Legg hill
near the Salem/Marblehead town line, less than 1/4 mile Qum thq source of a
backup water supply for the Town of Mnrhlehead . The fill from the power plant
was pointed out and, again, the ::oil. appeared to be over 95% native soil inner-
maxed with small coal particles. No Ilv ash an observed ac the time of the
inspection, and Mr. . WebsLer stated QNt nn fly aqh had been seen during the.
excavation. Analyses of the NR_PGO fill provided by GZA indicate nermai., h3ck-
ground levels of base/neutrals and henvy metals. Had fly ash been a significant
constituent of the fill-, the levels of these contaminants would have been
elevated. There were, however. , ocher materiels at the Mackcv si-te unrelated
to the NEPCO fill which included ashohnit paving, roofing materials, four large,
empty oil tanks and other refuse disposed in .no indi.scrimnnate and unregulated
manner. In addition, the slope. 'nf the filled area was dangerously steep, posing
a safety problem should excessive crosion of banks occur,

are made:
I) There dues not appear t. ins in a rvirozmcmal nr public hcaith _
LhreaL from the fi l t brni_;IR rpm NEI'-M to the Mackay site.
2) NEPCO should be informed that anph iog other than clean fill.,
including fill mixed with solid wastes, should be transported
to an approved sanitary landfill, and further disposal of
fill material , which includes solid wastes, at the Mackey site
is prohibited without: a Salem Board of Health situ assignment.
3) Certain dumping:: at the Mickey sir^ appear to be in violation
of. Massachusetts solid waste laws. gpecifi.cally M.G.L. Chapter
111, Section 150A. No further disposal of solid waste material
should take place of this site without a Salem Board of Health
site assignment.
4) The safety threat presented Lv the nnacccpLohl.e slope of the
filled material at the Markey site should be rectified immediately.
5) A site assignment by the SSelcm Board of WAG for the Mackey site
should consider the proximity of a water supply, and onFurc ' re—
strictions on disposal. accordingly.
