EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
TRC Environmental Corporation("TRC") has performed a' supplemental site investigation at the
former Flynntan Manufacturing Company site located at 70-92 Boston Street in Salem,
Massachusetts (the "Site"). TRC performed this supplemental Site investigation on behalf of the
City of Salem(the"City"), as part of the City's Brownfields Pilot Program funded by a grant
from the United States Environmental Protection Agency("EPA"). This supplemental Site
investigation was conducted to further characterize Site conditions discovered during the initial
subsurface Site investigation conducted in November 2004. A scope of work for TRC's
additional Site investigation activities was set forth in the EPA-approved Quality Assurance
Project Plan, Addendum C ("QAPP'), dated June 2, 2005.
This supplemental Site investigation was also conducted as part of a Massachusetts Contingency
Plan("MCP") Immediate Response Action("IRA") to evaluate the extent of light non-aqueous
phase liquid ("LNAPL") detected in well MW-1, which was installed during the initial Site
investigation. The detection of LNAPL in MW-1 triggered a 72-hour release.notification
requirement under the MCP. The City of Salem notified the Massachusetts Department of
Environmental Protection("MADEP") on December 30, 2004 and the Site was assigned Release
Tracking Number("RTN") 3-24618. On February 28, 2005, the City submitted an IRA Plan to
the MADEP to assess the extent of the LNAPL in the area of MW-1. In addition, the City
submitted the first IRA Status Report for this release to the NL DEP on May 9, 2005. This
Supplemental Site Investigation Summary Report is intended to also meet the requirements for
an IRA Status Report pursuant to the MCP.
Supplemental Site investigation activities included a soil boring program conducted using
GeoProbe direct-push drilling technology and a limited test pitting investigation in order to
confirm the presence of suspect underground storage tanks ("USTs"). Drilling efforts included
installation of thirteen(13) soil borings with the completion of seven(7) of the borings as
groundwater monitoring wells. The drilling program was subsequently followed by the
collection of groundwater samples from the newly installed wells. As a result of the above-
referenced additional investigation, the following was observed by TRC:
• The Site is underlain by layers of fine to coarse sand and fine to medium gravel fill material
including limited amounts of anthropogenic (brick, concrete,wood, ash) material. Refusal
occurred due.to buried debris likely from a former on-Site building in the northern portion of
the Site, in the area west of previously installed soil boring SB-1/MW-1. Nine(9)attempts
were conducted to install proposed soil boring/monitoring well B-103/MW-103 in this area
and refusal was encountered at approximately one foot below existing ground surface
("bgs"). Thus proposed soil boring/monitoring well B-103/MW-103 was not installed.
' • Depth to groundwater at the Site and within the immediate vicinity, as measured by TRC on
October 11, 2005, ranged from approximately 8.8 feet bgs on the western side of Goodhue
Street in MW-107 to approximately 36.7 feet bgs on the northwestern portion of the Site in
MW-105. Based on the groundwater elevation survey performed by TRC personnel,
groundwater appears to flow to the east-northeast.
t
L.2005487 ES-1
r
• One(1) approximately 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil containing UST was located in the
northwestern portion of the Site during test pitting activities. Based on field measurements
conducted by TRC personnel and based on the tank's geometry, approximately 3,000 to
4,000 gallons of oil and water remain in the UST.
• Benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene,benzo(b)fluoranthene, and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene
were detected at concentrations exceeding their respective Massachusetts Contingency Plan
("MCP") S71/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards in the field duplicate of soil sample B-101. Soil
boring B-101 was installed on the western side of Goodhue Street. The detection of these
compounds in soil in MW-101 does not appear to be related to the release of LNAPL
detected in on-Site well MW-L. No other EPH or other analyzed constituents were detected
in excess of their respective MCP Method 1 S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards in Site or
immediate vicinity soil samples.collected during this supplemental investigation.
• LNAPL was detected at MW-1 as well as in the newly installed MW-105, located
immediately adjacent to the potential source,the 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil UST. LNAPL
was not detected in wells MW-101 and MW108 installed in Goodhue Street to the northeast
of on-Site well MW-1. Based on this information, LNAPL does not appear to'be migrating
from the property.to downgradient locations.
TRC recommends that the 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil UST be emptied of its contents,
decontaminated and removed and disposed off-Site under local and state regulations. UST
decommissioning activities should be conducted, specifically, under the April 9, 1996 MADEP
Policy#WSC-402-96 (Commonwealth of Massachusetts Underground Storage Tank Closure
Assessment Manual).
TRC also recommends that groundwater monitoring wells MW-1,MW-101,MW-102,MW-104,
MW-105 and MW-108 be monitored monthly to observe levels and/or migration of LNAPL.
Based on the groundwater elevation contours developed as part of this supplemental
investigation, an additional two (2) groundwater monitoring wells should be installed within
Goodhue Street, immediately east of MW-1 in an effort to further evaluate the potential for off-
Site migration of LNAPL..
Due to prior Site filling practices and difficult sloping terrain, TRC recommends that additional
test pitting/trenching be conducted with track-mounted heavy excavation equipment in order to
evaluate the presumed migration path of LNAPL from the on-Site 20,000-gallon UST.
According to the City, the proposed future end use of the Site is unclear at this time. Any future
Site redevelopment plans must include provisions for the management of Site.soils and remedial
measures to address Site LNAPL under the rules and regulations stipulated in the MCP.
A Phase I Initial Site Investigation Report and Tier Classification for the Site is required to be
submitted to the MADEP by December 28, 2005 in accordance with Section 310 CMR
40.0403(3) of the MCP.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1. Objective
TRC Environmental Corporation("TRC") has performed a supplemental site investigation at the
:former Flynntan Manufacturing Company Site located at 70-92 Boston Street in Salem,
Massachusetts (the"Site"). TRC performed this supplemental Ste investigation on behalf of the
City of Salem(the"City"), as part of the City's Brownfields Pilot Program funded by a grant
from the United States Environmental Protection Agency("EPA"). This supplemental Site
investigation was conducted to further characterize Site conditions discovered during the initial
subsurface Site investigation conducted in November 2004. A scope of work for TRC's
additional Site investigation activities was set forth in the EPA-approved Revised Quality
Assurance Project Plan, Addendum C ("QAPP"), dated June 2, 2005.
This supplemental Site investigation was also conducted as part of a Massachusetts Contingency
Plan("MCP") Immediate Response Action("IRA") to evaluate the extent of light non-aqueous
phase liquid("LNAPL") detected in well MW-1, which was installed during the initial Site
investigation. The detection of LNAPL in MW-1 triggered a 72-hour release notification
requirement under the MCP. The City of Salem notified the Massachusetts Department of
Environmental Protection("MADEP") on December 30, 2004 and the Site was assigned Release
Tracking Number("RTN") 3-24618. On February 28, 2005, the City submitted an IRA Plan to
the MADEP to assess the extent of the LNAPL in the area of MW-1. In addition, the City
submitted the first IRA Status Report for this release to the MADEP on May 9, 2005. This
Supplemental Site Investigation Summary Report is intended to also meet the requirements for
an IRA Status Report pursuant to the MCP.
1.2. Background
Figure 1-1 shows the location of the Site in Salem, Massachusetts. Figure 1-2 ("Site Plan")
depicts the Site layout including general features.
The Site is currently owned by the City of Salem. The Site is approximately 1.9 acres in size and
is bordered to the north and east by Goodhue Street, to the south and west by Boston Street and
residential property to the northwest. Commercial property(auto body shop and Dunkin'
Donuts abuts the Site to the southeast. The Site currently contains four separate, vacant
buildings, three of which are enclosed by fences with locking gates, and the fourth securely.
locked. Available records indicate the site was historically occupied by commercial and
manufacturing operations from prior to 1900 until approximately 1999. Flynn and Sons operated
a leather tannery on Site from approximately 1922 until approximately 1988. Based on an
interview.with Thomas St. Pierre of the City of Salem Public Property Department during the
preparation of an October 2001 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment("ESA")by TRC, "small
commercial operations"reportedly were conducted on the property until 1999, including a small
metals recycling business. .
Site buildings include the main factory building("Main Building), the main factory storage
building annex("Storage Building Annex"), an additional storage building("Storage Building"),

and a 4-car garage. The main entrance to the Site is located on Boston Street. Parking areas and
secondary entrances are located on the northwest, southeast and the northeast portions of the
Site. North of the Main Building is a built-up vegetated area reportedly filled with materials
generated from the demolition of a former Site building located in the immediate vicinity. The
building was reportedly demolished in the 1990s. No additional information was available
regarding the building demolition.
The area surrounding the Site is comprised primarily of commercial and residential properties.
' The North River, an inlet to Salem Harbor, is located approximately%2 mile northeast of the Site.
Strongwater Brook, a feeder canal to the North River, runs east to west approximately 500 feet
north of the Site. Salem's downtown center is located approximately 3/4 mile east of the Site.
The nearest Site sensitive receptors are adjacent residential dwellings located northwest of the
property.
Due to the Site's prime location,the City of Salem plans to redevelop the Flynntan property with
new buildings consisting of mixed-use residential and retail spaces that will serve as part of a
revitalized corridor representing the"entrance"to the City.
On November 17 and 18, 2004, TRC performed an initial Site subsurface investigation,which
included the installation of ten(10) soil borings via Geoprobe®direct push drilling technology.
Six(6) of the soil boring were converted into I"-diameter polyvinyl chloride("PVC")
.groundwater monitoring wells. On December 28 and 29, 2004, TRC returned to the Site to
collect groundwater samples and discovered approximately 1.5 feet of LNAPL on top of the
groundwater surface in monitoring well MW-1, located on the eastern side of the Site, north of
the Storage Building. As required by the MCP (310 CMR 40.0300), the City notified the
MADEP of the separate phase hydrocarbon in MW-1 on December 30, 2004. The MADEP
assigned the Site RTN 3-24618 for the release.
As a result of the LNAPL discovery and subsequent reporting to the MADEP,the City was
required to prepare an IRA Plan. The IRA Plan was prepared and submitted to the MADEP on
February 28, 2005 and included assessment tasks designed to evaluate the source and extent of
the LNAPL detected in MW-I.
Exceedances in MADEP Reportable Concentrations ("RCs")were also discovered in Site soil
and groundwater samples collected during the initial November 2004 Site investigation,which
also required reporting to the MADEP.
Tasks performed as part of this supplemental Site investigation were designed to fin-ther assess
both the exceedances of hazardous constituents discovered in Site soil and groundwater during
the initial Site investigation as well as the IRA condition.

1.3. Potential Source Areas
Table 1-1 presents a list of potential contaminant source areas that were identified at the Site.
These source areas were identified in TRC's May 2005 "Site Investigation Summary Report" and
were based on our findings from field efforts conducted at the Site including a ground
penetrating radar("GPR"), hazardous materials survey, review of previously unavailable EPA
Site records and the November 2004 installation of soil borings and groundwater monitoring
wells, with groundwater samples being collected in December 2004.

2.0 TECHNICAL APPROACH
This section describes the activities performed as part of this project and include investigative
field work to address the Site IRA condition. Unless otherwise specified, all work was
performed in accordance with the EPA-approved QAPP Addendum C (dated June 2, 2005) for
the City of Salem Brownfields Pilot Program and the February 25, 2005 IRA Plan.
2.1 Soil Boring Program
TRC's soil boring program was performed on June 14 and 15, 2005. Figure 2-1 shows the
locations of the soil borings that were advanced during this project. Table 2-1 lists the samples
that were submitted for laboratory analysis. Appendix A contains the soil boring logs and
groundwater monitoring well construction diagrams.
The program consisted of the placement of thirteen soil borings advanced via Geoprobe®direct-
push drilling technology with seven(7) of the borings converted to groundwater monitoring
wells. Excluding groundwater monitoring well("MW") MW-105, groundwater monitoring
wells were constructed with two-inch diameter polyvinyl chloride ("PVC") 0.010-slot screen and
riser. MW-105 was constructed using one-inch diameter PVC materials. Borings were
completed to depths ranging from approximately 5 feet bgs to approximately 37 feet bgs.
For each soil boring, continuous five-foot acetate-lined cores were collected from the ground
surface to the groundwater interface or refusal, whichever was reached first. Soil samples were
screened in the field for the presence of volatile organic compounds ("VOCs") using a RAE
Systems MutliRAE Plus multi-gas meter equipped with a photoionization detector("PID").
Samples exhibiting elevated PID readings as well as other field indications (visual and olfactory)
of contamination were submitted to a Commonwealth of Massachusetts-certified analytical
;laboratory for environmental testing as set forth in the project QAPP (Addendum Q. PID
readings are provided on the soil boring logs presented in Appendix A. Soil samples as well as
Site worker breathing zones were also periodically monitored for hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen
sulfide concentrations were not detected during the soil boring program.
The proposed soil boring and groundwater monitoring well to be installed as 13-103/MW-103
was not completed due to refusal at approximately one feet bgs at nine(9) locations. In addition,
the locations for soil borings B-104 and B-106 were adjusted due to push refusal at their
originally proposed locations.
Table 2-1 presents a list of soil samples collected as well as the chemical analyses performed on
each sample.

2.2 IRA Assessment Activities Status
On behalf of the City and as required by the MADEP, TRC performed Immediate Response
Action("IRA") assessment activities at the Site during this supplemental Site investigation. As
such, this section of this report will serve as the required IRA Status Report in order to update
the MADEP on the status of the IRA assessment conducted on Site.
As previously indicated in this report, a release of LNAPL was discovered in monitoring well
MW-1, located on the eastern portion of the site, during initial Site investigation groundwater
sampling activities conducted on December 28, 2004. The discovery prompted a 72-hour release
notification to the MADEP,which was provided on December 30, 2.004. The Site was assigned
Release Tracking Number("RTN'.') 3-24618. This report section serves as the second IRA
Status Report submitted for this release.
A completed IRA Transmittal Form(form BWSC-105)is attached. A copy.of the IRA
transmittal form is provided in Appendix B.

L2005-487 2-5 November 2005
2.2.2 Release Description
On December 28, 2004, approximately 1.49 feet of LNAPL was measured in groundwater
monitoring well MW-1 located along the eastern perimeter of the Site as shown on Figure 2-1.
The LNAPL discovery triggered a 72-hour release notification condition under the MCP. On
behalf of the City of Salem, Mark Casey of TRC verbally notified the MADEP of the release on
December 30,2004 at approximately 10:00 a.m. Mr. Casey was given authorization to
undertake IRA assessment activities and provide the MADEP with a written IRA Plan within 60
days of verbal notification. At the time of release notification, the MADEP issued the Site RTN
3-24514. On February 9, 2005, Mr.Paul Giddings of the MADEP informed TRC that the
Department had mistakenly assigned RTN 3-24514 to two separate releases, and that the correct
RTN for the subject release is RTN 3-24618.
On February 28, 2005, TRC submitted a Release Notification Form(RNF) and written IRA Plan
to the MADEP for this release.
2.2.3 Summary of IRA Activities
IRA assessment activities were performed on June 14 and 15, 2005 and included the installation
of five (5) soil borings (B-101/MW-101, B-102/MW-102, B-104/MWt04,B-105/MW-105 and
B-I08/MW108) and four(4)test pits (TP-1, TP-2, TP-3 and TP-4) at the locations shown on
Figure 2-1. Each soil boring was completed as a groundwater monitoring well. Soil
borings/groundwater monitoring wells were installed as described in Section 2.1. Attempts to
install proposed soil boring and groundwater monitoring well B-103/MW-103 west of existing
groundwater monitoring well MW-1 were unsuccessful as refusal on what is believed to be
former on-Site building demolition debris used as Site fill material was encountered. Soil
samples were collected from the soil borings as noted on Table 2-1. No soil samples were
collected from the test pits. IRA assessment activities were also monitored with a multi-gas
meter equipped with a PID and hydrogen sulfide probe. PID readings are provided on the soil
boring logs presented in Appendix A. Hydrogen sulfide concentrations were not detected during
test pitting or soil boring installation activities.
Under the direction of TRC, test-pitting activities were performed by City of Salem Department
of Public Works personnel on the northwestern portion of the Site, in a former paved parking
area. One(1)approximately 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil containing UST was located in the
area: Based on field measurements conducted by'TRC personnel and based on the tank's
geometry., approximately 3,000 to 4,000 gallons of oil and water remain in the UST. Test pit
logs are provided in Appendix C.
LNAPL was discovered on the groundwater surface at existing groundwater monitoring well
MW-1 and neAy installed well MW-105 at a thickness of 3.6 and 7.9 feet, respectively.
LNAPL was not detected in wells MW-101 or MW-108 installed within Goodhue Street to the
northeast(i.e., downgradient).of well MW-1: No LNAPL or any contaminants in excess of
current Massachusetts Contingency Plan('MCP')Method 1 Standards were detected in the
j remaining groundwater monitoring wells installed as part of the IRA assessment program. Based
on this information LNAPL does not appear to have migrated significantly from the subject

property. A summary of soil and groundwater analytical results is provided in Tables 3-2 and 3-
3, respectively. Groundwater analytical results are discussed in greater detail in Section 3.2.2.
2.2.4 Management of Remediation Wastes
No remediation waste has been generated to date as a result of the IRA assessment program.
2.2.5 Federal,State and Local Permits
Permits required for implementation of this IRA assessment program included notification to Dig
Safe System, Inc. (Dig Safe and obtaining a City of Salem Street Opening Permit to install
groundwater monitoring wells in a public roadway. No other federal, state or local permits or
approvals were necessary for the implementation of this IRA assessment program.
2.2.6 Future IRA Activities
The IRA assessment activities discussed in this report were funded by an EPA Brownfields
Assessment Grant. At the time of this report's submittal, funding is no longer available to the
City for continued IRA assessment activities, and TRC's contract with the City has expired.
Therefore, the performance of future IRA activities at this Site is uncertain.
Should additional fi.mding be obtained by the City, TRC recommends that that future IRA
activities_include monthly gauging of well MW-1, MW-101, MW-102, MW-104,MW-105 and
MW-108 to observe groundwaterfLNAPL levels and to monitor for the potential migration of
LNAPL from the property. TRC also recommends that the 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil UST be
emptied of its contents, decontaminated and removed and disposed off-Site under local and state
regulations. UST decommissioning activities should be conducted, specifically;under the April
9, 1996 MADEP Policy#WSC-402-96 (Commonwealth of Massachusetts Underground Storage
Tank Closure Assessment Manual). Finally, further evaluation of the extent of LNAPL at the
property should be performed as well as an evaluation of potential LNAPL removal alternative
for the Site.
Based on the groundwater elevation contours developed as part of this supplemental
investigation, an additional two (2) groundwater monitoring wells should be installed within
Goodhue Street, immediately east of MW-1 in an effort to fitrther evaluate the potential for off-
Site migration of LNAPL.
2.3 Groundwater Sampling
Figure 2-1 depicts the groundwater monitoring wells installed by TRC. The conversion of soil
borings to monitoring wells included the installation of a.two-inch outside diameter PVC 0.010-
slot screen and riser pipe into the boring upon completion. Due to difficult subsurface conditions
at MW-105, a one-inch diameter well was.constructed.
On June 22 and 23,2005, TRC returned to the Site to collect groundwater.samples from the
newly installed groundwater monitoring wells. Separate phase petroleum hydrocarbons, as noted
L.2005-487 2-7 November 2005
above, were observed in monitoring wells MW-1 and MW-105 at a thickness of approximately
3.6 and 7.9 feet,respectively. Separate phase hydrocarbons were not observed in wells MW-101
F or MW-108 installed within Goodhue Street to the north(i.e.,downgradient) of well MW-1, or
in the remaining on-Site groundwater monitoring wells.
Table 2-1 presents a list of groundwater samples collected as well as the chemical analyses
performed on each sample. Well installation and sampling activities were conducted in
accordance with the EPA-approved QAPP Addendum C.
2.4 Location and Elevation Survey
On June 22, 2005, TRC performed a relative elevation survey of the newly installed monitoring
wells in an effort to evaluate the direction of groundwater flow across the Site. Well casing
elevations and groundwater table elevations were measured relative to arbitrary benchmark
elevation (permanent ink marked designation) of 100 feet, located on a boulder on the slope
located north of the Main Building and west of MW-I.
2.5 MCP Reporting Requirements
The laboratory analytical results from this supplemental Site investigation were compared with
MCP Method 1 Standards for category S-1/GW-2 (S-1 category soil within a GW-2 categorized
groundwater area) and S-1/GW-3 soils, and GW-2 and GW-3 groundwater. Analytical results
from the November 2004 initial Site investigation were also compared to these standards.
Summaries of detected compounds from both Site investigations are provided on Tables 3-2 and
3-3, and are discussed in Section 3.0.

3.0 RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION
3.1 Subsurface Conditions
Appendix A contains copies of the soil boring logs and well construction diagrams for the
borings and monitoring wells that were completed at the Site as part of TRC's additional
investigation. The subsurface descriptions provided below are based on observations made
during the soil boring program completed as part of this supplemental investigation.
The Site is underlain by layers of fine to coarse sand and fine to medium gravel fill material
including limited amounts of anthropogenic (brick, concrete,wood, ash)material. Ash/slag was
observed in the 2-4 bgs soil boring interval at boring location SB-1 04/MW-104. Refusal
occurred due to buried debris likely from a former on-Site building in the northern portion of the
Site, in the area west of previously installed soil boring SB-1/MW-1. Nine (9) attempts were
performed in this area with refusal encountered at approximately one foot bgs during
.unsuccessful attempts to install the proposed soil boring B-1 03/MW-103.
3 Depth to groundwater at the Site and within the immediate vicinity, as measured by TRC on
j October 11, 2005, ranged from approximately 8.8 feet bgs at MW=107 to 36.7 feet bgs at MW-
105. Table 3-1 presents a summary of monitoring well construction and groundwater elevation
data for TRC's wells. Figure 3-1 depicts the direction of groundwater flow based on these data.

-3.2 Nature and Extent of Contamination
Appendix D contains copies of the laboratory analytical reports.
3.2.1. Soil
Table 3-2 presents a summary of the results of chemical analyses for soil samples collected at the
Site during the initial and this supplemental phase of the Site investigation. Note that this table
lists only those analytes that were detected in the samples collected.
Volatile Organic Compounds(VOCs): VOCs were not detected in excess of their respective
MCP Method 1 S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards during this supplemental investigation.
Volatile Petroleum Hydrocarbons(VPH): VPHs were not detected in excess of their respective
MCP Method 1 S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards during this supplemental investigation.
Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbons(EPH): Benzo(a)anthracene,benzo(a)pyrene,
benzo(b)fluoranthene, and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene were detected at concentrations exceeding
their respective MCP S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards in the field-duplicate of soil sample B-
101. Soil boring B-101 was installed on the western side of Goodhue.Street. The detection of
these compounds in soil in MW-101 is not considered to be related to the release of LNAPL
identified in well MW-1. No other EPH constituents were detected in excess of their respective
MCP Method 1 S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards in Site or immediate vicinity soil samples
collected during this supplemental investigation.

Supplemental Site Investigation Summary Report 3-9 October 2005
{ 4.0 CONCLUSIONS
The results of TRC's supplemental investigative activities are as follows:
• The Site is underlain by layers of fine to coarse sand and fine to medium gravel fill material
including limited amounts of anthropogenic (brick, concrete, wood, ash)material. Refusal
occurred due to buried likely former building materials in the northern portion of the Site, in
the area west of previously installed soil boring SB-1/MW-1. Nine(9) attempts were
performed in this area with refusal encountered at approximately one foot bgs during
unsuccessful attempts to install the proposed soil boring B-103/MW-103.
• Depth to groundwater at the Site and within the immediate vicinity, as measured by TRC on
October 11, 2005,ranged from approximately 8.8 feet bgs on the western side of Goodhue
Street in MW-107 to approximately 36.7 feet bgs on the northwestern portion of the Site in
MW-105. Based on the groundwater elevation survey performed by TRC personnel,
groundwater appears to flow to the east-northeast.
• One (1) approximately 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil containing UST was located in the
northwestern portion of the Site during test pitting activities. Based on field measurements
conducted by TRC personnel and based on the tank's geometry, approximately 3,000 to
4,000 gallons of oil and water remain in the UST.
• Benzo(a)anthracene,benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, and indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene
were detected at concentrations exceeding their MCP S-1/GW-2 or S-1/GW-3 standards in
the field duplicate of soil sample B-101. Soil boring B-101 was installed on the western side
of Goodhue Street. The detection of these compounds in soil in MW-101 does not appear to
be related to the release of LNAPL detected in on-Site well MW-l. No other EPH or other
analyzed constituents were detected in excess of their respective MCP Method 1 S-1/GW-2
or S-1/GW-3 standards in Site or immediate vicinity soil samples collected during this
supplemental investigation.
• LNAPL was again detected in MW-1 as well as in the newly installed MW-105, located
i immediately adjacent to the potential source, the 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil UST. LNAPL
was not detected in wells MW-101 and MW108 installed in Goodhue Street to the northeast
of on-Site well MW-1. Based on this information, LNAPL does not appear to be migrating
from the property to downgradient locations.
• Other than the detection of LNAPL in two Site groundwater monitoring wells,no other
laboratory analyzed constituents were detected in Site or immediate vicinity groundwater
above their respective GW-2 or GW-3 standards.

1 5.0 RECOMMENDATIONS
The following recommendations are presented based on the results of TRC's supplemental
investigative activities:
f TRC recommends that the 20,000-gallon No. 6 fuel oil UST be emptied of its contents,
decontaminated and removed and disposed off-Site under local and state regulations. UST
decommissioning activities should be conducted, specifically,under the April 9, 1996
MADEP Policy#WSC-402-96 (Commonwealth of Massachusetts Underground Storage
1 Tank Closure Assessment Manual).
• TRC also recommends that groundwater monitoring wells MW-1,MW-101,MW-102, MW-
104, MW-105 and MW-108 be monitored monthly to observe groundwater levels and the
potential for migration of LNAPL from the property.
• Based on the groundwater elevation contours developed as part of this supplemental
investigation, an additional two (2) groundwater monitoring wells should be installed within
Goodhue Street, immediately east of MW-1 in an effort to further evaluate the potential for
off-Site migration of LNAPL.
• Due to prior Site filling practices and difficult sloping terrain, TRC recommends that
additional test pitting/trenching be conducted with track-mounted heavy excavation
equipment in order to evaluate the presumed migration path of LNAPL from the on-Site
20,000-gallon UST.
According to the City, the proposed future end use of the Site is unclear at this time. Any future
i Site redevelopment plans must include provisions for the management of Site soils and remedial
measures to address Site LNAPL under the rules and regulations stipulated in the MCP.
A Phase I Initial Site Investigation Report and Tier Classification.for the Site is required to be
submitted to the MADEP by December 28, 2005 in accordance with Section 310 CMR
40.0403(3) of the MCP.
