                   UPDATE OF THE HAZARDOUS WASTE GROUNDWATER
                       TASK FORCE EVALUATION OF FONDESSY
                               ENTERPRISES,  INC.


The United States Environmental  Protection Agency's Groundwater Task  Force

("Task Force") conducted an evaluation at the Fondessy Enterprises.  Inc.

hazardous waste disposal facility located on Otter Creek Road,  in Oregon,

Ohio.  The Task Force was comprised of personnel from United States

Environmental  Protection Agency  (U.S. EPA) Headquarters, U.S.  EPA Region V

offices, and the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA).   The Fondessy

Enterprises, Inc.  facility is located in Oregon, Ohio, near its western

boundary with the City of Toledo, Ohio.  The onsite inspection  was conducted

from January 27 through February 6, 1986, and was coordinated  by personnel

from U.S. EPA Region V.


The purpose of the Task Force evaluation was to determine the  adequacy  of  the

groundwater monitoring system in regard to Federal groundwater  monitoring

requirements under the Resource  Conservation and Recovery Act  (RCRA).

Specifically,  the objectives of  the evaluation at Fondessy Enterprises,  Inc.

were:


     0  To determine compliance  with 40 CFR  Part 265 interim status groundwater

        monitoring requirements;


     0  To evaluate the groundwater monitoring program described in the RCRA

        Part B permit application for compliance with 4n CFR Part 270.14(c); and

                                               • r •

     0  To determine if hazardous waste constituents have entered the groundwater

        at the facility.

Fondessy Enterprises, Inc. (FEI) currently has monitoring wells screened in



three distinct zones:  (1) Greenfield dolomite bedrock, (2) the contact zone



between the upper till and lower till units, and (3) lacustrine deposits



overlying the upper till  zone.  The facility currently utilizes only the



monitoring wells screened in the bedrock to address the interim status ground-



water monitoring requirements.  Downgradient bedrock wells are separated by as



much as 700 feet.  The Task Force recommends that additional  wells be added to



the bedrock monitoring system to decrease the spacing between wells located



along the downgradient limit of the waste management area.





The Task Force considers  the contact zone between the upper till  and lower



till units, and the lacustrine deposits overlying the upper till  zone to be



preferential pathways for contaminant migration.  FEI has proposed to monitor



these two zones in conjunction with the groundwater monitoring system proposed



for use in their application for a final RCRA permit (Part B).  The Task Force



recommended that the monitoring of these zones be included in the 40 CFR Part



265 groundwater monitoring system.





All four laboratories used by FEI were evaluated by the Task  Force.  It was



found that one of the laboratories, CEP, accepts samples that do not arrive at



the laboratory under a custody seal, which is contrary to the FEI's sampling



and analysis plan.  The Task Force recommends that this practice cease



immediately and that FEI  ensure that the chain-of-custody procedures addressed



in its facility sampling  and analysis plan be followed rigorously by whatever



laboratory is used.





On October 3, 1986, U.S.  EPA informed FEI that the Region V RCRA Enforcement



Section had reviewed the  Task Force comments concerning the groundwater

-------
                                     - 3 -



monitoring system and requested a meeting to discuss these concerns.  This



letter initiated a series of informal discussions between FEI, U.S.  EPA, and



OEPA.  The purpose of these discussions was to inform FEI of the Task Force



recommendations and to develop a written document memorializing an agreement



between FEI and U.S. EPA that would involve upgrading the existing groundwater



monitoring system to address the Task Force concerns.





On December 5, 1986, U.S. EPA sent a proposed Consent Agreement and  Final  Order



(CAFO) to FEI.  The major issues addressed in the proposed CAFO are  as follows:





(1)  FEI shall comply with 40 CFR 265.92 by ensuring that all  chain-of-custody



     procedures identified in its sampling and analysis plan are followed;





(2)  FEI shall submit a written report that explains the bedrock ground water



     monitoring system including a description of the extent to which the  current



     system monitors the bedrock aquifer;





(3)  FEI shall submit a plan for the installation of a minimum of one bedrock



     monitoring well located along the facility's northern perimeter between



     existing wells R3 and R9; and





(4)  FEI shall submit a plan for the installation and implementation of a  shallow



     groundwater monitoring system capable of monitoring groundwater from  the



     shallow lacustrine zone and the contact zone between the  upper  and lower till





The December 5, 1986, proposed CAFO addressed Task Force concerns with respect



to the existing interim status groundwater monitoring system.   U.S.  EPA and



FEI are currently discussing the details of the proposed CAFO.

                                     - 4 -



On December ?, 1986, U.S. EPA sent FEI a Notice of Deficiency (NOD)  following



another completeness review of the Part B of the RCRA permit application.



Included in the NOD was a summary of the missing procedures or information



that the Task Force determined to be necessary contents  of the permit



application.  FEI has sixty (60) days from December 2, 1986, to respond to



the NOD.





During the FEI inspection, Task Force personnel collected samples from six



bedrock wells, thirteen shallow lacustrine wells, ten deep till  wells, two



water line trenches and two leachate sumps.  The Task Force reviewed the results



of this sampling event and past monitoring data collected by the facility.



This review revealed the presence of 8.3 ppb of PCBs in  well R6, 17  ppb of



1,1, dichloroethane in well F2s, 15 ppb of l-formyl-2-piperidinecarboxylic



acid in well SD6-2, 0.58 ppb of 4,4'- DDT in well Fid, and 13 ppb of 2-methyl-



cyclopentanone in well M4d.  The Task Force recommended  that additional



monitoring begin immediately to establish the source of  the detected constituents,



As a result of these recommendations, U.S. EPA requested in the December 2,



1986, Notice of Deficiency that FEI resample and retest  wells R6, Fid, F2s,



M4d, and SDG-2 for parameters in Appendix VIII of 40 CFR 261.  If retesting



indicates groundwater contamination, FEI must define the extent  of the plume



of contamination of the groundwater in the manner required by 40 CFR 270.14(c)(4)





This completes the Hazardous Waste Groundwater Task Force evaluation of the



Fondessy Enterprises, Inc. facility in Oregon, Ohio.

I.  EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

A.  INTRODUCTION

     Concerns have recently  been  raised  as  to  whether the commercial hazardous

waste treatment,  storage,  and  disposal  facilities  (TSDFs)  are  in  compliance

with the  ground water  monitoring  regulations  to  detect  contaminant  releases

from waste  management   units  at TSDFs.   In  response to  these  concerns,  the

Administrator of the U.  S.  Environmental  Protection  Agency (EPA)  established a

Hazardous Waste Ground  Water  Task  Force  (Task  Force)  to  evaluate the  level  of

compliance at TSDFs and  address the  cause(s)  of noncompliance.  The Task Force

is comprised of personnel from  EPA Headquarters, including the  Office  of Solid

Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER), EPA Regional  Offices and State regulatory

agency personnel.   To  determine the  status of facility compliance,  the  Task

Force is  conducting   in-depth   facility  investigations,  including   onsite  in-

spections, of TSDFs.   The objectives  of these investigations are to:

   - Determine  compliance with  interim status  ground water monitoring  require-
ments of  40  CFR  Part  265  as  promulgated  under RCRA  or the  State  equivalent
(where the State has received RCRA authorization),

   - Evaluate the  ground water monitoring program described  in  the facility's
RCRA Part  B  permit  application for  compliance with 40  CFR  Part  270.14(c),

   - Determine  if  the   ground  water  at the  facility contains  hazardous waste
constituents, and

   - Provide information to  assist the Agency  in determining  if the TSDF meets
EPA ground  water   monitoring    requirements  for waste  management  facilities
receiving waste from response  actions  conducted under the  Comprehensive Envi-
ronmental Response, Compensation and  Liability Act (CERCLA, Public Law 915-10)*.
     * EPA policy,  stated  in the  May  6,  1985  memorandum  from Jack  McGraw  on
"Procedures for  Planning  and  Implementing  Offsite   Response",   requires  that
TSDFs receiving CERCLA wastes  be  in compliance with applicable RCRA ground water
monitoring requirements.

-------
     To address these objectives,  each Task Force investigation  will  determine if:

   - The facility  has developed  and  is following  an adequate ground water sampl-
ing and analysis plan,

   - Designated RCRA and/or State required monitoring wells  are properly located
and constructed,

   - Required analyses have  been conducted on  samples  from the  designated RCRA
monitoring wells,  and

   - The ground water  quality  assessment  program outline  (or plan,  as  approp-
riate) is adequate.

     The twelfth TSDF  investigated  by the Task  Force  was  the  Fondessy  Enter-

prises, Inc. site  (FEI) located in Oregon, Ohio,  near its western  boundary with

the City of Toledo,  Ohio (Figure 1).   The  onsite  inspection was  conducted from

January 27 through February 6,  1986,  and  was coordinated by personnel  from the

EPA Region V.  In  general,  the investigation  involved review of  State,  Federal,

local, and  facility  records;  facility  inspection;  laboratory evaluation;  and

sampling and analysis of ground water and  landfill leachate.

     The geographic coordinates of the site are 41°40.00'N, 83°28.06'W  in Lucas

County, Ohio.  The property is  owned by  FEI which  is  an  operating  subsidiary

of Envirosafe  Services,  Inc.   of  Horsham,  Pennsylvania.    FEI  presently  has

interim status under RCRA for  landfill/land treatment of hazardous  waste  at its

876 Otter Craek Road  facility  (ID  No. OHO 045243706);  however, land treatment

has been discontinued  here.   There  are also  leachate storage tanks  located  at

this facility, as  well  as physical/chemical stabilization operations.

     The waste management areas of  this   facility are  designated as  Landfill

Areas 1 and 2, and cells F, G,  H,  I, and  M (Figure  2).   Landfill  Areas I and 2

are inactive, pre-RCRA landfills.   Landfill Area  1 is approximately  1250 x 700

feet in  area  and  the  southeast portion  of  the  cell  is  now the  site  of  the

leachate storage  tank   farm.    Landfill  Area  2   is  currently  used  for  clay

stockpiles and is  about 700 x 500 feet in  area.  Cell F is currently at capacity,
and a partial  closure  plan  for this  cell  has  been  approved  by the  Ohio  EPA.
Cell F has received industrial  and hazardous wastes and  is about three acres in
area.  Cell   H  is  the  present  active site  receiving  industrial and  hazardous
waste, and  was  constructed with  a  single  60-mil.,  high density  polyethylene
(HOPE) liner.  Cell  I  is  planned  to be  the site next used for  industrial  and
hazardous waste disposal.   This cell  is  to have a double  synthetic  liner and an
approximate  area of 850 x 500  feet.   A portion of this area has  also  been  used
for land  treatment  of  hazardous waste prior to  construction  of the  hazardous
waste cell (Figure 3).  An area west of  Cell   I  was designated  as the  "Old  Oil
Lagoon".  A   container  storage  building  which  lias not  yet  been  placed  into
service is located near the west  end of the former lagoon.   Other features of
interest include two closed  oil  lagoons to the  north  of a waterline  which is
owned by  the City  of Toledo,  and  an  ash  disposal  area  in  the  borrow  pit
(Figure 3).   Future  cells are  designated  areas G and M (Figure  2).   Cell  M is
located on the south side of York  Road,  and is included  in  FEI's Part B permit
application  as part  of the  expanded  hazardous waste  TSO facility.   This  cell
was not included  in  the RCRA Part  A  application, thus it  does not  have interim
status.
     Two low-pressure raw  water transmission  lines  cross  the  facility in  an
east/west direction, mostly north  of York  Road.   These  lines conduct  raw  Lake
Erie water  to  the  City   of  Toledo  Collins Park  water  treatment  plant.   An
agreement exists between  FEI  and the  City of Toledo,  establishing the distances
at which surface  storage and hazardous waste cells may be located  with respect
to the  water!ines.   This  agreement   has  affected the development  of  various
waste management units.  Landfill  Area 1  and cells G  and  H are located north of

B.   SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS

1.   Compliance with Interim Status Ground Water Monitoring Requirements -
     40 CFR 265 Subpart F

     The interim  status  Ground  Water  Monitoring  System  has changed  signif-

icantly since  its  inception  in  1982.   Changes in  the designation  of  certain

wells have complicated the analysis of historical  data from these wells.  There

has also been  a change  in the ground  water  flow  direction designation.  Other

changes have involved improvements,  such  as  the addition  of  more  wells in the

monitoring system, which are  generally  better constructed and more strategically

located.  The  Sampling  and Analysis  Plan  (SAP) has changed  frequently  and has

been under continuous development.   Due to these  changes, insufficient infor-

mation exists  to  perform more  than  a  few  statistical  analyses  to determine

significant differences between upgradient and  downgradient  wells.  Background

ground water quality data for radium-226,  radium-228 and TOC may be suspect due

to the unacceptable performance evaluation results  of the  laboratories  used to

analyze these  parameters  for  FEI  and deficiencies within  the chain-of-custody

procedures at  their  radiological  laboratory.   The  SAP should  be  updated  to

include the recommendations  listed in Section II.D.5 of this report.

     Downgradient  bedrock wells  are separated by as much as 700 feet.  The Task

Force recommends that additional wells  be added  to the bedrock monitoring system

to decrease the downgradient  spacing  along the  point of compliance.

     The till  zones under the  facility are considered by  the Task Force to  be

preferential  pathways for contaminant  migration.    It  is  recommended that the

monitoring of  these  zones be  included in the  40  CFR Part  265  ground  water

monitoring system  for this facility.

                                       7

2.   Ground Water Monitoring Program Proposed for RCRA Permit

     FEI proposed in a February 20, 1986, revised Part B application to monitor

the bedrock  as  the uppermost  aquifer,  and  the  Lacustrine/Upper Till  contact

and Upper  Till/Lower  Till  contact  through  a leak  detection system  of  wells.

The Task  Force   fully  agrees  with monitoring  of  these  zones.   The  shallow

zones are  considered  by  the   Task   Force   to  be  preferential  pathways  for

contaminant migration.   FEI  contends  that the dolomite  and  limestone bedrock,

principally the   Greenfield  and  Lockport  formations,  are  the uppermost aquifer

under the  facility.   The  zones  identified  by the  Task  Force  as pathways  of

migration, in addition  to  the  bedrock,  are the Lacustrine,  Lacustrine/Upper

Till contact, and  the Upper  Till/Lower  Till  contact.  The Task  Force reviewed

FEI's proposal  and has the following recommendations:

   - The Task Force  recommends that monitoring  of  zones, other  than bedrock,
be implemented as  soon   as  possible and  agrees  that  they be  included  in  the
RCRA permit  monitoring   system.   The Task   Force  also   recommends  that  the
analytical  results of samples from these shallow  zones be evaluated to identify
contamination and ground water  degradation.

   - The  point   of compliance  should  be  at the  downgradient  limit  of  the
hazardous waste   management  area.   FEI's  proposed  point  of  compliance  is
generally along   the   northern  and  eastern  property   boundary.   However,  the
downgradient limit of future cell  M is distant and  upgradient  from  other waste
management units and the  point  of compliance.  The Task  Force  recommends that
the downgradient limit of  future  disposal  cells  be included  in  the monitoring
system.

   - The rationale for the horizontal  spacing of  downgradient bedrock wells and
all shallow till wells  should  be  included   in the  Part  3 application.   It  is
recommended by the  Task  Force  that additional   downgradient bedrock  wells  be
installed.  It  is  also  recommended  that  additional  shallow till  wells  be
installed to circumscribe all waste management units.

   - Due to the  low ground water  flow gradient,  the recent seasonal  variations
in ground water flow directions, and the effects  of the  Standard  Oil  Company's
pumping on ground water  flow directions, the  determination of  the  ground water
flow direction should be monthly at a  minimum.

-------
   - The  proposed  statistical   evaluation  to  be  used  in  determining  the
significant differences  between  individual  upgradient  and downgradient  wells
along the point of compliance is inappropriate. Another method must be proposed.

   - The proposed semiannual monitoring  frequency  for contaminants is unaccep-
table and should  be  increased  to  at least quarterly.   Also, the  list  of  waste
constituents to be analyzed should  be expanded,  as  stated  in  Section II.D.4.d.
of this report.  Detection limits for the  chosen waste  constituents need  to be
specified.

   - The extent of past solid waste  disposal  activities  at  the northern boundary
of Landfill  Area  1 is  not  clearly defined.   The  Task  Force recommends that the
extent of past solid waste disposal  activities be clearly defined.

   - The effect  of  the proposed construction  of the Mi Hard Road  overpass at
the northern  boundary  of  the  facility  is  as  yet  unknown.   The  Task  Force
recommends that the  Ohio EPA, and USEPA and  the  facility monitor any developments
in this area.

3.   Task Force Sampling and Monitoring  Data  Analysis

     During the  inspection,  Task  Force  personnel  collected  samples  from  six

bedrock wells,  thirteen shallow  Lacustrine  wells,  ten deep  till  wells,  two

water line trenches  and  two  leachate sumps.   The purpose  of this  sampling was

to determine  if  any  hazardous  waste   constituents  or   other  indicators  of

contamination could  be  found in the  ground water at  the FEI  site.  One problem

the Task  Force  encountered in making this determination  was that many of the

wells were slow  producing.   Sixteen of  the twenty-three deep till  and shallow

Lacustrine wells did not produce enough   water  to sample for  a  full  set of Task

Force parameters.  Thus,  gaps  exist  in  the  Task  Force data.  The  facility's

past monitoring data  were  also reviewed  for this  evaluation.  The  Task  Force

review of  these  data   produced  the  following  findings  and  recommendations:

   - The  Task  Force data  show 8.3  ppb  of  PCB's  in upgradient  well  36.   It
is recommmended that the  source  of  the  PCB's  be further  investigated and that
TOX results  from  this  bedrock   aquifer  be  tracked   closely  during  interim
status monitoring.

   - The Task Force  data from the shallow  lacustrine  wells show 17 ppb of 1,1-
dichloroethane in well  F2s  and  15  ppb of  1-formyl-2-piperidinecarboxyl ic acid
in well SOG-2.  It is recommended  that additional monitoring of this zone  begin
immediately in  order to  establish   the  source  of  the  detected  constituents.

-------
   - The Task  Force data  from  the  deep till  wells  show 0.58 ppb  of  4,4'-DDT
in well  Fid and 13 ppb of 2-methyl -cycl opentanone in well M4d.  It is recommended
that additional  monitoring of this zone begin  immediately in order to establish
the source  of the detected constituents.

   - The Task Force did not  find  any indication  of contamination  in the  water-
1ine trenches.

4.   Compliance with Superfund Offsite  Policy

     Under  current  EPA  policy,  if  an  offsite   TSDF  is  to be  used  for  land

disposal  of waste from a  Superfund financed cleanup  of  a  CERCLA site,  the TSDF

must be  in compliance  with  the  applicable  technical  requirements  of  RCRA.

Interim status facilities must have adequate  monitoring data  to assess  whether

the facility poses  a threat  to  ground  water.   The  Task Force identified  some

concerns in the ground  water monitoring system at FEI,  as  described above.  The

Regional  Administrator  of  USEPA  Region V  should take  these  concerns, and  any

corrective  actions taken by  the  facility,  into   consideration when determining

compliance  with this policy.

II.    TECHNICAL REPORT

 A.    INVESTIGATIVE  METHODS

      The Hazardous  Waste Ground Water Task  Force  (referred  to  hereafter  as the

 Task Force)  investigations  of  Fondessy Enterprises,  Inc.  (FEI) consisted  of:

      -  Reviewing  and evaluating records  and documents  from  the USEPA Region V,
         the  Ohio EPA, the Lucas County Health Department, and  files  maintained
         by FEI.

      -  Conducting   an   onsite   facility  inspection  from  January  27  through
         February 6, 1986.

      -  Evaluating  the  offsite  laboratories  contracted by FEI  for analysis of
         ground water samples.

      -  Sampling and analyzing  data from  selected  ground water  monitoring wells
         and  leachate.

      The onsite facility  inspection  began   on  January  27,  1986,  and was  con-

 ducted by three teams:   the Technical  Review Team,  the  Sampling Team  and the

 Laboratory Evaluation Team.   The investigative methods used  by these teams are

 described below.

 1.   Technical  Review Team

      The technical  review team  was responsible for  conducting  an evaluation of

 the facility with  respect to applicable  ground water  monitoring  requirements,

 and to determine compliance with  40  CFR  265  Subpart  F, potential  compliance

 with 40 CFR 264  Subpart F and  40  CFR 270.14(c),  and  Ohio  Administrative  Code

 3745-65-90 through  3745-65-94.   The evaluation was divided  into the  six  princi-

 pal  areas:

      -  waste  characterization  and  operations,

      -  site history and design,

      -  site hydrogeology,
                                        11

-------
     -  ground water monitoring,



     -  ground water sampling and analysis, and



     -  ground water quality data and interpretation.



     The Task Force  core  team in Washington O.C.  contracted  Planning  Research



Corporation (PRC) of Chicago,  Illinois to prepare a  document package of pertinent



background information  from public  information sources, such as agency files.



The information  collected  by  PRC primarily concentrated on events  since about



1982, and  projected  future activities.   Lacking from  the  PRC documents  were



design plans,  correspondence,  and   inspection   reports  prior to  about  1982;



however, the PRC documents  did  contain logs for wells drilled prior to 1982.



To fill  information  gaps,  files  from the Lucas  County  Board  of  Health  and the



Ohio EPA were reviewed by the Technical Review  Team for historical  information.



Aerial photographs of the  site  were  also  reviewed  to supplement  information in



the files.  During 1985, a  substantial  amount  of hydrogeologic information was



generated by FEI in  response  to  an  apparent ground water flow reversal  in the



bedrock  and  a  USEPA Notice  of  Deficiency with   respect  to  the  facility's



August 15, 1983, Part 3  permit  application.  Several  reports  and  documents on



the subject facility became  available  during and after the  field investigation



and were included in the evaluation.   Combining these  information  sources, the



technical  review team  performed  a  thorough evaluation of the  facility  with



respect  to ground water.



2.   Laboratory Evaluation  Team



     The offsite laboratories that analyze water samples for  the  facility  were



evaluated by the Region  V Quality Assurance Office.   FEI  uses  Biological  and



Environmental  Control Laboratories  (BEC)  of Toledo,   Ohio, to collect  ground



water samples and perform  analyses  for most 40  CFR  Part 265  parameters.  Clow

Corporation of Pontiac,  Michigan,  and Environmental Testing  and  Certification
(ETC) of Edison, New Jersey, analyze organic samples, and Controls for Environ-
mental  Pollution (CEP) of Santa Fe, New Mexico, performs radiological  analyses.
An onsite inspection  was made  of each of these laboratories  and  a  copy of the
full laboratory evaluations appear in Appendix C.
3.   Sampling Team
     Samples for the  Task   Force  evaluation  were  collected  by  Versar,  Inc.,
hereafter called Versar, an EPA contractor, under the continuous supervision of
an EPA Task  Force  member.   Sampling procedures followed those  outlined  in the
January 1986 Quality  Assurance Project Plan  for  this  site.   FEI personnel  also
accompanied the sampling team at  all times and video tapes  were made of most of
the sampling activities.   Dedicated sampling  equipment  owned  by the  facility
(Well Wizards® and Brainard-Kilman hand pumps) was used for sampling all wells.
Bailers provided by Versar  were  used to  sample  waterline  trenches.  Leachates
were pumped  into  dedicated 55-gallon  drums  by  the  facility;  sample  aliquots
were drawn   from  these  drums.   The  hand  pumps  and  bailers  were  operated  by
Versar personnel.  All  samples and  blanks  (one per day)  were split  with the
facility.  All   sample bottles  and  preservatives were  provided by Versar  for
Task Force  samples and split samples distributed to FEI.
     Prior  to  purging,   Versar  personnel   monitored  the  open  well heads  for
chemical vapors using  an  HNU® photo-ionizer.   Task Force personnel  then measured
the depth to water using an electronic water level  indicator provided  by either
Versar or the facility.  This measurement  was  used  to  calculate purge  volumes,
with a  goal  of purging three  volumes  of  water from the well  before  sampling.
Purge volumes were measured  in a calibrated  container.  Purging  three volumes
was seldom  possible because many  shallow wells exhibited slow  recovery rates.
                                       13

-------
If this  occurred,  the  well  was  purged dry  (if three  volumes  could  not  be



obtained) and was revisited on  the  following day to begin  sampling.   If  three



volumes could be obtained  for  the purge and there was liquid  remaining  in the



well, sampling was conducted immediately.   If the well ran dry, it was  revisited



the following day to  complete  sampling.  A number of the wells  were  revisited



as many as three times (see Appendix B), without complete success  in  obtaining



the full   range  of samples.  Appendix  3 details  the purging  and  sampling  infor-



mation.  There  was  no  purge  conducted for  the leachate  or waterline trench



samples.   Samples were  collected  in  the  parameter  sampling  order  shown  in



Table 1.



     Volatile organic,  Purgeable  Organic  Carbon  (POC)  and Purgeable  Organic



Halogen (POX)  samples  collected  for  analysis  by the  EPA  contract  laboratory



and the  FEI  contract  laboratory  were  first poured  into a  250 ml beaker  for



transfer  into 60 ml  glass  vials sealed with  caps having Teflon®  septa.   Each



beaker was dedicated  to the  well  sampled.  Remaining  sample  containers  were



filled directly  from  a dedicated 2  1/2 gallon  glass  container,  parameter  by



parameter, to  obtain  exact splits.   The  samples   were  placed in  ice-filled



coolers immediately  after collection for storage and  custody purposes.



     After sampling  was  completed at a  well, Versar  personnel took the  samples



to a  central  staging  area,  where  field  measurements  for  turbidity, pH,  and



specific  conductance were taken and  one of the two  sample  aliquots  for metals



analysis  was   vacuum  filtered.   In  addition,  metals,  TOG,  phenols,  cyanide,



nitrate and  ammonia  samples  were  preserved  as shown  in  Table  1.   Leachate



samples were   not preserved.   For  each  day  of  sampling,  Versar  prepared  field



blanks for each parameter group (e.g., volatile organics, metals) in the  field.

     At the end of  each  day, samples were packaged  and  shipped to the two EPA
contract laboratories  according  to   applicable  Department  of  Transportation
regulations (40 CFR Parts  171-177).   Aqueous  samples from monitoring wells and
surface locations were  considered  "environmental"   while  those  from  leachate
collection system  sumps   were   considered  "hazardous"  for  shipping  purposes.

B.   FACILITY OPERATIONS, DESIGN. AND HISTORY
1.   Background - Information Sources
     The technical  review  team  spent considerable time  and  effort researching
FEI's operational  history.   Information contained  in the documents  retrieved
and compiled  by  PRC,  and  learned  during  interviews  of facility  personnel,
provided minimal information on site activities prior to 1983.  Detailed infor-
mation is available in agency files  for  site  activities  beginning  with Cell  H,
active since  December  1983.   The  facility   was  in  existence  on and  before
November 19, 1980, and has received interim status for the portion of the Otter
Creek Road  property  that is located  north  of York  Road  (see  description  of
facility to  follow).    Information  concerning  waste  management  units  active
during interim  status, and  potential  prior release  areas, was used to  evaluate
the ground water monitoring system.
     The Lucas  County  Board  of  Health was  responsible  for  inspecting  land
disposal sites  of  solid  waste  in  the 1960's,  1970's,  and  early  1980's.   The
Board of Health  files  were  reviewed  and  found  to   contain  detailed  plans  of
FEI's Landfill  Area  1  and  Landfill  Area  2,  and  inspection  reports  from  the
mid-19601s to the present.   Ohio EPA files  also  contained  plans  for  Landfill
Area 2 and inspection  reports similar to those in  the Board of Health files.   A
substantial  amount  of  information  on the  types  of waste  received  was  also
                                       16

-------
available in these  files  in  the  form of  waste  stream approval  applications.
Toledo Environmental   Services Agency  (TESA)  personnel  were  interviewed  and
files reviewed  for information  on the raw  waterlines  that traverse the  site.
Aerial photographs (some  in  stereoscopic  coverage)  from  the U.S.  Geological
Survey (USGS)  and the Soil  Conservation Service (SCS) were  also reviewed.   Many
investigations  have  been  performed at the  FEI  Otter  Creek  Road Facility  to
determine the  suitability of  the  site  for landfilling.  Table 2  lists  most  of
the reports made  available  for  Task  Force  review.   Combining  the   various
information sources,   a  more  complete  history   of  the   site  operations  is
presented below.
2.  History
     FEI began  operations   in the  early  1950's  as a  salvage and  reclamation
business.  The   facility  obtained  interim   status in  1980  for  landfill ing,
storage, and land  treatment  of  hazardous  waste.  Conversion Systems,  Inc.,
acquired FEI in June 1983.  In January 1985, the  ownership  reorganized  to  form
Conversion Systems,  and  Envirosafa  Services,  Inc, with  FEI  as  an  operating
subsidiary of  the latter.    Envirosafa also operates a  hazardous  waste  landfill
in Idaho.  FEI  owns and operates  another  facility in Oregon, Ohio, known as the
Wynn Road land treatment area.   The FEI  facility  studied during  this  investi-
gation is commonly referred to as  the  Otter  Creek Road facility, which  is 124
acres in area.   On November 7, 1985, Region V of  the U.S.  EPA received  a letter
from FEI certifying  compliance  with the  financial liability and ground  water
monitoring requirements of RCRA  at the Otter Creek Road facility.
     Within the main  portion  of  the  Otter Creek  Road  property  are two  major
waterlines that convey water  from  Lake  Erie to the Collins  Park  potable  water
treatment plant of the City of Toledo.  These waterlines  pass through FEI  in  an
                                       17

east to west direction between hazardous waste  Cells  H  and  I,  with a 80 to 105



foot easement. The 78-inch line can deliver up to 110 million  gallons  of  water



per day.  This  9/16-inch  thick  bituminous coated  steel  pipe  was  installed  in



1940.  In 1973-1974, a half-inch  cement  grout  lining  was  added to  the interior



of the  pipe.   The pipe  is  located between eleven  and twenty  one  feet  below



ground level, and the invert level ranges east  to west from  578.8 to 569.9 feet



above MSL.



     The second  water!ine,  installed  in  1964,  is  of sixty-inch  diameter  16-



gauge steel  encased  in 3/8-inch  thick  precast,  prestressed  concrete pipe.  The



pumping capacity of the pipe is 80 million gallons  of water per day, and  it  is



located between  9  and  18  feet  below  ground  level.  The  invert  level  within



the FEI  site  is  between  580.6  and 572.0 feet  above MSL (east  to  west).   Both



lines are operated under constant  low pressure ranging between 8.5 and 10.5 psi .



According to the Woodward-Clyde  report  (Reference 13,  Table  2)  the  78-inch line



was visually  inspected in 1984 by  the  Toledo  Department  of  Public Utilities.



Although spalled  linings  were  found at  two  joints,  the  overall  condition  of



the interior  of  the  pipe  was considered to  be  good.   FEI  and City  of Toledo



recognized the importance of protecting the waterlines  from contamination in a



water!ine security agreement signed  by both entities  on  March  22,  1984.  The



agreement (see Appendix A) outlines design  conditions  and  requires  installation



of a  monitoring  system to insure protection of the  waterlines  from potential



contamination.  The design conditions  and nonitoring system  are discussed  later



in this report.



     In the immediate vicinity of  FEI are  several  facilities  which may have  an



impact on the area ground water quality.   Figure  1 shows the property surrounding



FEI.  The Westover landfills  (solid  waste  disposal) are  immediately  north  and



west of the  facility.



                                       20

-------
     The newer Westover landfill  (#5  in Figure 1),  west  of Otter  Creek  Road,
has received solid  waste from 1974 through the present.  Commercial ,  industrial ,
and household waste have been disposed  at this landfill.   Wastes  are indicated
on design plans in  Lucas County  Board  of Health files to be buried to depths of
65 feet below ground level .
     The older Westover landfill  (#6)  and Commercial  Oil,  Inc.  (#3)  are located
immediately north of FEI.  These two inactive facilities  are related by operating
within the  same  borrow pit  area;  the pit was  excavated  prior to  activity  by
either facility, and  appears to be as  deep, about  ten  feet,  as other  borrow
pits visible  in  1950 photographs  reviewed  by  the Technical  Review Team.   The
northern portion of  the  pit  was  filled  in  by  Commercial  Oil  to form holding
lagoons in the middle 1950's  and early 1960's.   The southern  portion of the pit
was filled  with  solid  waste in  the  early  to middle  1970's  as the  Westover
landfill .
    Commercial Oil  was a waste oil  recycling facility utilizing the  lagoons for
oil storage.  PCS levels as high  as 160  ppm  were found in samples of  the lagoons
collected by  U.S.  EPA Region V  personnel  in  April  1985.  Commercial  Oil  has
been a  CERCLA immediate removal   site in the past and  is  presently undergoing
another removal  action to stop the lagoons from overflowing.
     A refinery of The Standard  Oil Company (#2  on Figure 1)  is  also  north  of
the FEI property.  Another waste oil  dealer,  William Rubin,  operated  "Bill's
Road Oil Service"  (#17) during the 1970's and early  1980's on  a  portion  of the
property that FEI  currently  owns, located  south  of  York  Road  as a  portion  of
Area M.  The  waste oil   operations  included  two storage  lagoons  which   were
fil 1 ad in.
                                       21

-------
     During 1984, the  City  of  Oregon,  Lucas  County, and  the Port  of  Toledo
proposed constructing  an  overpass  at  Mi Hard  Avenue which  would  be  located
along the  boundary  between FEI and  the old  Westover landfill and  would have
possible significant impacts on FEI's  ground  water monitoring system.  Present
plans call   for  the  proposed  road and  berm to  pass  over  existing  monitoring
wells, and  would  limit  FEI's  ability  to construct wells in the future.  Prelimi-
nary borings indicate  that  the  roadway would  cross  over solid waste disposal
areas filled in the past by  FEI and  Westover.   The  regulatory agencies  and  FEI
will need  to  follow developments  concerning  construction  of  this  overpass  to
insure that compliance  with RCRA ground  water monitoring  requirements  can  be
maintained.
3.  Operations
     Operations at  the  site during  the Task  Force investigation   consisted  of
disposal of hazardous  waste  by landfilling.   FEI  handles  a  large quantity  of
RCRA-regulated hazardous  waste  including  characteristic  wastes  (ignitable,
corrosive,  EP  Toxic);   listed   wastes;  halogenated   solvents;  non-halogenated
solvents; metal   treating  process  wastes;  petroleum  refining  wastes;  coking
wastes; and commercial  or chemical  manufactured products or off-specification
products.  FEI is   prohibited  by  the  Ohio  EPA from  accepting  the  following
general categories  of  material   for  disposal:   PCS,  radioactive,  reactive,
infectious, or shock-sensitive Class A explosive wastes,  and pressurized gases.
     FEI's  procedures  for  waste handling  have been  developed  over  time.   In
general, much simpler  internal  controls  were used  prior to  1983.   Since 1983,
waste handling procedures  were  stated by FEI  to be  similar  to those  observed
during the  Task  Force  inspection.   Specific procedures for  handling  waste  are
detailed and documented in FEI's  internal  Standard  Operating Procedures (SOP).
                                       22

-------
     FEI's standard procedure for accepting a waste stream  for  disposal  starts



with the generator's completion  of the FEI form,  "Application for Acceptance of



Waste Product" for each waste stream.  The application  identifies the generator,



the physical  and chemical properties of the waste, the hazardous and DOT shipping



class, and the  shipping  frequency,  volume, and condition.   The  application is



approved or disapproved by  FEI  and subsequently the Ohio EPA Northwest District



Office.  The Ohio EPA may place  conditions on the  acceptance of  the waste,  such



as requiring  a  particular  analytical  test  during characterization.  Once  a



waste stream  is  approved and given  a Product Code Number (PCN),  it  is  allowed



to be received in the frequency  specified in the  application.



     Waste that  arrives  at  the  facility  is  stopped  at the  gate.   The  guard



assigns each truck  a  number  for internal  tracking, and  visually  inspects  each



truck for liquids  leaking from  the  bed.   The truck is  directed  to the  scales,



where its weight  is  determined.   The manifest is  checked for completeness  and



the waste stream application is  retrieved  from the PCN  file for  comparison.  A



composite sample of the bulk load is obtained with  a  spade by taking an  aliquot



from each quadrant  of the  bed.   The  sampler also  looks  for  abnormalities  and



containers within the load.



     The containerized   loads   are   inspected  in   a   different  manner.   All



containers are opened and checked for  free  liquid  and void  space.  A composite



sample from  20  to  30  percent  of the containers  bearing  identical  PCN's  are



obtained for  analysis.   The samples  are  placed  in labeled  plastic bags  and



taken to the onsite laboratory  for analysis.



     Waste characterization  (fingerprinting) done  by  the laboratory varies  with



the type of  waste  received.  The analyses may consist of,  but  are not  limited



to, flash point,  pH  (of a  10%   solution),  chloride,  cyanide,  photoionization
                                       23

detection, thermoconductivity  detection,   alkalinity,   metals,   radioactivity,



moisture, and paint filter test.  All wastes  approved  for  disposal  are  assumed



compatible; compatibility  screening  is done  during  the initial  waste  stream



application review process.  Generally, the  facility accepts  waste with  a  pH



greater than 5.0 s.u.  and a flash point  above  100°F.



     Provided that  there  are   no  discrepancies  with  the  manifest  or  load



characteristics, the truck  is  directed  to the disposal  area.   Sulk loads  and



containerized loads are  handled  differently.   Bulk  loads are  directed to  a



stone access road  that leads to the  waste cell.  The vehicle  enters the cell,



proceeding along the stone road to a  ramp.  The stone road  provides  access into



the cell  without  allowing direct contact  of  the truck  with  the waste  in  the



cell, minimizing the potential  for tracking out waste.   The truck is backed  up



on the ramp and emptied.   The driver  remains  inside  the  vehicle throughout this



process.  FEI personnel  perform  all  work  required  to empty the  truck  (opening



the tailgate, raising the  bed,  and  cleaning  residual material  from the  end  of



the truck).  The truck then  leaves the  cell  and returns to the  scale area  for



an empty  weight measurement.  Final  load  weight is determined and checked with



the manifest.   The  manifest  is  signed  and the transporter  allowed to  leave.



The scales are tied into  a computer which  is  programmed  to  track the volumes  of



waste received daily, by  PCN.   A data entry clerk uses  data  from the manifest



and daily  scale  records  to generate  information to  be used in  the facility's



annual disposal  report to the U.S. EPA.



     After the truck leaves the cell, a  front  end  loader cleans  the  ramp.  This



loader remains on the stone  road  with only the blade contacting any waste.   A



second loader dedicated  to  the  cell   pushes the load into  the  active  disposal
                                       24

area.  The area  is  determined by  survey  markers  on the  edge  of the  cell  and
five-foot vertical  lifts.   The  coordinates  of each  load ara  relayed to  the
facility office and  recorded on  the daily  record and a  grid map.
     After the containerized  loads  are  opened and sampled, the  truck  proceeds
to the edge of the cell  but does  not enter it.   Once  approval is  received  for
disposal, FEI  personnel  fill  any  void  spaces  within the  drums with  kiln  dust.
The drums are  resealed,  rolled onto  a truck bed,  transported by  crane  into  the
cell, and gently  rolled  off.  A  bulldozer is  used  to push  the edges of  the
drums in place.  The drums are not compacted  or ruptured.   The  locations of  the
drums within  the cell are also noted on the aforementioned  grid  map.   The  grid
system has been  developed  over  time  with  earlier  grid  systems  being  less
detailed.  Containerized   load  locations   are  also  noted  on these  grid  maps.
     During the Task Force  inspection, both a  bulk  load and  containerized  load
were followed  through the facility  to  observe waste handling  procedures.   The
procedures observed  conformed with the facility's  SOPs mentioned above.  These
SOPs were in  effect  at  the  time  of the  Task  Force  inspection but have  since
been upgraded  by the facility.
4.   Hazardous Waste Management  Units
a.   Cell H
     The only  hazardous  waste unit  receiving  waste  for  disposal   during  the
investigation  was landfill  Cell  H  (see  Figure  2),  which was placed into service
to receive hazardous wastes  on December 20,  1983  (see  Table  3),  and  is located
in the  northeast  corner  of the  property.   The  cell  has  a  surface  area  of
approximately  9 acres, with  dimensions  of about  490  feet by 760 feet, and  50
feet below ground level.

-------
     The construction of Cell  H  began in the spring of  1983  and was performed
in three phases,  beginning in the  northeast, and  continuing to the  west  and
finally to the  south and  east.   These  phases  were developed  because  of  the
immediate need for disposal area.   Wastes  were  disposed  in the phase I portion
of the  cell  while  the  phase  II and  III  sections  were  being excavated  and
completed.  The  cell  was  excavated  through  Lacustrine  deposits and  into  the
Upper Till.  A ten-foot  setback  from the edge of  the  cell  into the Lacustrine
was removed and  replaced with recompacted  clay during the  construction.  The
cell  bottom and side slopes were lined  with a 60-mil  High Density Polyethylene
(HOPE) liner.   A leachate collection  system  with two collection sumps was also
installed in the cell.  Specific details  about the  design  and construction  are
contained in  the  Part  3  application  and   in  FEI's  internal   QC/QA  (Quality
Control and Quality Assurance) documents  for  Cell  H.   Figure 4 shows a typical
cross section  and details of the  base and cap construction.  At the time of  the
Task  Force  inspection,   Cell   H  was  nearly  filled to  ground  level.   Plans
indicate that   the  cell  is  to  be   finished  at 40  to  45  feet  above  grade.
     The aforementioned  waterline  security agreement  between FEI  and  the City
of Toledo contains criteria  for  waste area locations,  design, and  construction
applicable to   Cell   H  and  any  other  future hazardous  waste  areas.   These
conditions are presented  in Appendix A.
b.   Cell I
     The next  cell  to  be  used for Hazardous Waste disposal  is planned  to  be
Cell  I.  The excavation  of this cell  was underway during  the Task Force inspec-
tion.  Cell  I  is  to  cover  an  area  of  approximately  500  by  850  feet.  The
designed base  of the  cell  is  planned  at  about  50  feet below  ground  level  and
                                       27

the final  fill  grade is about 50 feet above ground level.  The cell  is designed



to have a recompacted  clay bottom and  sides,  HOPE liners on  the  bottom,  top,



and sides,  a  leachate  collection   system,  and  a  surface  drainage  system.



c.   Future  Cells G and M



     Plans as presented in the  facility's  Part  B  application  include hazardous



waste landfill  cells designated as G and M, two surface impoundments, landfarm-



ing in the area of  cell M, and  treatment and storage  of hazardous  waste.  Cell



G is  located  on the main  Otter Creek  Road  property  over the  oldest disposal



areas.  This area  has  interim  status  and  is  approved  for use prior  to  final



approval  of  the  RCRA  Part  8 permit  application.   Cell  G measures  375  by 900



feet and  is  designed to be about  70  feet deep  and  50  feet above  grade.  Cell  M



is south  of  York  Road.  The  property south of  York Road  does  not  have interim



status and  cannot  be  used  for  waste disposal until  the RCRA  Part  B  permit



application  is  approved.   Cell  M  is  planned to cover an  area  of approximately



1000 by 1500 feet.  Both Cells  G  and M have  been  designed to  include synthetic



liners, leachate collection systems,  and surface drainage.



d.   Cell  F



     Cell  F  was  used  for disposal  of hazardous waste prior to Cell  H.   Cell  F



is reported   by  FEI  to  have  been   active prior  to   November  19,  1980,  and



until  December  1983..   Little  is known about its design  and  construction.   The



first reference to Cell F was found  in the  June 1984 closure  plan for the cell.



Historically, FEI  has  used  several   different  systems  to  name  the  disposal



units, and as will  later be discussed, the  monitoring  wells.   Interpretation of



records is hampered by  the  changes   of  names.   Often, the same  designation is



applied to Tiore than one area.
                                       29

-------
     County and state  inspection  reports  from  the  late  1970's and early 1980's
and aerial  photographs from  October  1980  indicate  that Cell  F  was  constructed
in phases,  excavated and  filled  at  different times during  its  useful  life.   A
1980 aerial photograph showed a north-south trench  on the eastern side  of cell
F.  A  mound,  presumed to  be  a  soil  stockpile,  is  present  in the  northwest
corner of  the  Otter Creek Road  property, and what  appears to be  undisturbed
land is located between the stockpile and  the trench.
     The combined area considered to be included in  Cell  F  is about  320 by 500
feet.  The  depth of the cell  is about 50 feet below ground level.   The limit  of
waste disposal  is  at  598  feet  above MSL,  or about  10 feet  above  ground level  .
The cover  currently ranges between  5 and  8 feet.  This cell  was  finished at a
lower elevation to  permit  a  vertical  clearance  easement  to  the  Toledo  Edison
Company for electrical  powerlines which cross over  the cell.  The  closure plans
for Cell F indicate that  a  leachate  collection system is present  within the
cell and show a vertical  standpipe leading to a radial pattern of  gravel  drains
at the base of the  cell.   Approval  for partial  closure of Cell F was  received
from the Ohio  EPA  in  January  1986.  Table 4 presents   a  summary  of  the  wastes
disposed of in  Cell F.
e.   Land Treatment Area
     Another hazardous waste management  unit  used  at  the  site  was the  land
treatment area  at  the  location of  current Cells  H  and  I  consisting  of  a large
diked area  covering portions of  both  cells.   It  appears to  have been placed  in
service in  1980 to  receive petroleum  wastes and to  aid in the elimination  of
the aforementioned  oil lagoons.   FEI  reduced  the  area of  the  landfarm during
the excavation  of landfill Cell  H.  The surface  soils within  the  landfarm area

5.   Solid Waste Management Units



a.   Early Operations



     FEI reports in  a  Part  B application  that  operations  began  on  January 1,



1954, as a salvage and reclamation business.  Disposal  of  waste  and  storage of



oil in lagoons were a part of the operations at this time.   The original opera-



tions occurred on a  portion of the  Otter Creek Road property designated in the



Part B  application  as parcels A,  B, and  C (see Figure  5).  At that  time,  a



borrow pit dominated the area, extending from the aforementioned City of Toledo



waterlines to the northern  and  eastern  edges of the  parcels,  and west, nearly



to Otter Creek Road.   Within  the borrow pit,  a  pond  was  present, appearing to



be fed by a northeast to southwest drainage ditch through  parcel  0.   The outlet



of the pond was a drainage ditch which  flowed  west  into Otter Creek.  A second



drainage ditch flowed into the borrow pit at its northeast  corner.  Between the



waterlines and York  Road, a  small   depression  also existed.   This  depression



became what is now called the "Old Oil  Lagoon".



     Aerial photographs  from  1950,  1957,   1963,  1969, 1977,  1980,  and  1985,



supported by county  and state  files,  show the progression of disposal operations



at the site.  Up to  1969, operations were  limited to  parcels A,  B,  and  C.   The



pond within the borrow pit was  reduced  in  area and appeared to  contain oil  in



the 1957 and  1963 photographs.   Area landfilling  within the pit  eliminated the



pond and filled most  of  the pit  by  1969.   An oil  lagoon was constructed in the



eastern portion of  the parcel by  1963, and operated until about  1980.   This



lagoon was designated  as  the  "Current   Oil  Lagoon"  by the  Fred  C.  Hart (Hart)



report of  1983  (Reference 8, Table  2).   Based  on  the City of  Toledo's  1986

Woodward Clyde report (Reference 13, Table 2)  on the waterlines, the lagoon was



phased out in the early 1980's by  removing  all  liquids,  stabilizing the bottom



with kiln dust,  and  backfilling.   Samples  collected by  FEI  prior  to  closure



showed detectable concentrations  of cyanide, several polynuclear aromatic hydro-



carbons, and  several  chlorinated  hydrocarbons.   This  lagoon  covered  approxi-



mately 1.6 acres  and  was  between  12 to  15  feet below ground  level.   The  area



south of  the  waterlines,  known  in the  Hart  report as  the "Old  Oil  Lagoon",



appeared to occasionally contain water in the aerial photographs reviewed by the



Technical Review Team.  No  oil  was noticeable in  any of  the  photographs.   The



"Old  Oil  Lagoon" was  eliminated  in  1969 by  filling  it  with  solid waste.



Leachate samples  obtained  from boreholes drilled  by  Hart within the  "Old  Oil



Lagoon" in  1983  showed detectable  concentrations  of  arsenic,  cadmium,  lead,



silver, oil  and  grease, phenanthrene, phenols,  and cyanide.  The Hart  leachate



sampling results were obtained  from a summary in the City  of Toledo's "Independ-



ent Technical   Evaluation    of  the  Waterlines  Security   Agreement",  a  public



document by Woodward Clyde  (Reference 13, Table  2).  These  results  are  summar-



ized in Table 5.



     A conical or tepee  incinerator is  visible only in  the  1969  photographs.



The incinerator  is   reported  in   Lucas   County  Health  Department  inspection



reports from that period  to have been used  for  the burning of dunnage, packing



used to protect cargo, from ships calling at the Port of  Toledo.  The incinera-



tor, rated at  100 cubic yards  daily,  was used  from the mid-1960's  to the early



1970's.  Burning  of   waste  was  discontinued  in  1969  with  the  adoption  of



regulations in Ohio  prohibiting open burning.

b.   Landfill  Area 1



     In 1969,   FEI  was  first  licensed  for  solid  waste  disposal  and  opera-



tions expanded north into parcel  0.  Based on aerial  photographs, design plans,



and inspection  reports,  approximately   10  trenches  were  located  in  FEI's



Landfill  Area  1.  These  trenches  were  filled primarily between  1969  and  1983.



Deposited in these trenches were household,  industrial,  and  commercial  wastes,



demolition  debris, and incinerator residue.  The facility's  response  to a 1974



solid waste disposal  questionnaire  from the Ohio  EPA indicated that  approxi-



mately 700 yards of waste were received  on an average operating day.



     The trenches were excavated to an  average  base elevation of 570 feet  above



MSI or between  about  15 to  30 feet below  ground level.  The  older  trenches,



those under the  southern mound  of Landfill Area  1, were each about  60  feet



wide.  Approximately six of  these  trenches  were filled between  1969  and  1974.



Ohio EPA  records  show  that  in  1974  FEI  received  approval  for the  expansion



of the landfill  as it  existed  at that  time.   The plans  submitted  with  the



application indicated  that  the trench widths were to  be  increased  to  about 120



feet.  Three  of  these  trenches  appeared to be  under the  northern  mound  of



Landfill  Area  1.  The  larger trenches  were used from  1974 to  1983.  The  plans



for trench  construction  showed  a   10-foot  separation between  trenches  and  a



50-foot setback from  the property  lines. However,  the separation  and  setback



practices actually followed by  FEI are not documented.  Shallow garbage deposits



have been identified in borings by the county in  1984 along  the northern property



line, north of the northern mound of Landfill Area 1.  Once a trench was filled



to ground level, waste disposal occurred  above  ground  in  area  fills.   While an



area was  being  filled,  a trench in  a different area would  be  excavated.  The



southern mound of Landfill  Area 1,  also  known as the Central  Sanitary  Landfill,
                                       36

-------
was covered to an  elevation  of 638  feet  above MSL at the  peak.   The northern

fill  was finished  at  640  feet  above MSL.  The area between  the two  mounds  was

not filled above  ground  level   because  of the  easement  for the  Toledo  Edison

powerlines which  cross the site.

     Leachate samples were obtained  from  boreholes drilled  in  both mounds as a

part  of the  Hart   investigation of  1983 (see  Table  5).   The samples  from  the

southern mound showed detectable concentrations of barium, mercury, and oil  and

grease.  The  northern  mound  leachate  samples  exhibited  detectable  concentra-

tions of barium,  lead, cyanide, and  oil  and grease.

c.   Landfill Area 2

     The Mi Hard  Avenue Landfill, also  known as Landfill Area 2,  was operated

between 1976  and  1982.  This  landfill  was located west  of Otter Creek  Road,

east  of Otter  Creek, and north  of  Mi Hard   Avenue.   The approximate area  of

this  triangular shaped landfill was  320,000  square feet.  The  maximum depth  of

the cell was 45 feet below ground  level.  The waste was filled  to  approximately

30 feet above  ground  level.  The  design plans stated  that  because the Mil lard

Avenue Landfill is  adjacent  to Otter Creek, disposal  was limited by  the Ohio

EPA to demolition debris  within a 200-foot setback from  Otter  Creek.  The area
      «
east  of the  setback was  filled with  a  mixture of demolition debris  and  solid

waste.  The  design plans  showed  a  gas  vent  and  leachate  monitoring  system

installed in  the  cell.  A partially  perforated riser pipe  is connected to a

perforated pipe that  runs along  the bottom  of the  cell  parallel  to  Millard

Avenue.  FEI personnel indicate no knowledge of any leachate removal  from this

cell.  During the  Hart investigation,  two borings were  drilled into  the  cell.

An oily fluid  was  detected in   one of  the boreholes,  but there was  not  enough

volume of leachate available  to collect  a sample.

C.   HYDROGEOLOGY



     Many investigations have been performed at the FEI Otter Creek Road facil-



ity to determine the suitability of the site for landfilling (see Table 2).  In



addition to reviewing the reports listed in Table 2, and agency files, the Task



Force viewed cores  from  some  of the 1985 soil borings,  observed  fresh excava-



tions into the Upper Till within future Cell I, and interviewed FEI consultants



and representatives to  characterize the geologic  and  hydraulic  units  at this



site.



1.   Surficlal  Geology



     Prior to  FEI's  activities  at this  site,  the  topography of  this  area was



relatively flat, gently sloping toward Otter Creek  and  Lake Erie.  The FEI site



is located on a drainage divide between  Otter  Creek and Oriftmeyer Ditch.  Old



aerial  photographs and topographic maps indicate that a portion of the site was



a borrow pit.  Within the pit was a pond connected  with Otter Creek by a drain-



age ditch.  The pond  is  fed by  another  drainage ditch  from  the  northeast.   A



drainage ditch  located  on  the western  side of  the  Otter Creek  Road  facility



flowed south-southwest into  Otter Creek.   The second  drainage ditch  has  been



filled in over  the  years and  an underground pipe  installed  for drainage.  The



northwesternmost portion  of this  drain is reported  in  Lucas   County  Health



Department files to  have been  sealed  because of  contamination  from  a  nearby



landfill trench on FEI's property.  The pond appears to have been used as a oil



storage lagoon and  was  eliminated as the  borrow pit was  filled.   The current



major topographic features are the two mounds  of FEI's Landfill Area 1.  These



mounds are shown  to peak at nearly  640  feet  above MSL or about  40 feet above



the natural  ground  surface  on  recent topographic maps  of  the  site prepared  by



FEI consultants.  Cell  I was  under construction during  this  investigation and
                                       38

-------
constituted the  major depression  in  the  area,  approximately 50  feet  below



ground level.  Unaltered  by the  site activity,  the  stratigraphic units  from



surface to bedrock  are topsoil,  Lacustrine  deposits, Upper  Till,  Lower  Till,



and bedrock.



2.   Subsurface Geology



     The topsoil, ranging between two  and  four feet thick, is a  silty  clay  or



silty clay loam  derived  from the  underlying  Lacustrine  deposits.   The  majority



of topsoil, except for future cell M, has been disturbed or removed by  activity



at the site.



     The Lacustrine materials,  also known as  "yellow clay", were  deposited by a



series of  post-glacial lakes.   The Lacustrine deposits  can  be described  as  a



yellow to  brown  to  tan,  varved silt  and clay  with isolated  sand  inclusions.



The unit is generally  10 to 20  feet  thick, sloping  toward  the north-northwest.



In a 1985 Ohio Groundwater Consultants study (Reference 12, Table 2), a  ten-foot



sand zone was  identified  at  the base of the Lacustrine  in boring  Gl,  near the



intersection  of  Otter Creek  Road  and  Mil lard  Avenue.   Soil  borings  north,



south, and east  of  Gl do  not   indicate  the  presence of this sand  zone.   The



extent of this sand to the west is unknown.  This sand does not extend  over the



entire site,  but may exist as a channel  which  was undetected  by  other  borings.



     Two till  units  identified on  the  site  represent  at  least  two  Wisconsin



Age glacial  advances.  The Upper  Till,  also   known  locally as blue clay,  was



deposited during  a  late  Wisconsin  glacial   readvance  approximately  13,000



years ago.  This till   can be described as a medium  dense gray silty clay rang-



ing in thickness  between  35 and  50  feet.  The Upper Till  has a  finer  texture



than the  Lower Till,  primarily due to  the  available  source materials.   The



Upper Till was derived from previous  glacial  materials and  interstitial  lake
                                       39

-------
sediments, while the Lower Till  was derived directly  from  bedrock or  earlier
glacial  deposits.   Several  soil   borings  show  a sand,  silt,  or  gravel  zone
between  the Upper and Lower Till.  However,  the  zones between  the tills  are not
continuous across the  site.   Occasional  sand zones  were found  with the Upper
Till, but also are not  continuous over the  site.
     The Lower Till, described as "Hardpan" by  local  water  well  drillers,  is
a very dense  sandy  silty  clay  with  isolated  sand  deposits.  The Lower  Till
ranges in thickness  between  12 and  30 feet.  Both till  units  are  present  over
the entire FEI  site and  surrounding  area.  The Lower  Till  is often  located
directly on top  of  bedrock,  as  indicated by most of  the  soil   borings  on  the
site.  Several borings show  a  sand  and gravel  zone  between the Lower Till  and
bedrock.  The top  of  the  bedrock was also  noted to  be weathered in  several
borings.  The uppermost unit of  bedrock  is  the  Silurian Age  Greenfield  member
of the Bass  Islands formation.   The  Greenfield  is  a  dolomite deposited  as  a
shallow marine evaporite approximately 410  million  years ago.   The  Greenfield
can be described as  a  brown, microcrystal1ine, medium  bedded  dolomite contain-
ing stylolites and  stromatolites.  The Greenfield  is  present  over the  entire
site and most of  Lucas County.   The dolomite  can be found  at depths  beginning
at 70 to  90  feet  below  ground  surface  and continuing  for  32  to 65 feet  in
thickness.  Based on permeabilities,  FEI  consultants estimate  recharge  of the
bedrock from  the tills  on  the site to  be  on  the  order of 92  gallons per  day per
acre.
     The Greenfield dolomite is  underlain  by  the Lockport  formation,  approxi-
mately 175 feet  of  white to  light  gray,  or  brown  dolomite   and  limestone.
Commonly, this  formation  is   coarsely crystalline,  vuggy,  and  fossiliferous.

3.   Ground Water Conditions in the Bedrock



     The Greenfield and  Lockport  formations, the  uppermost  units of  bedrock,



are present over the entire site and Lucas County and  are the primary source of



domestic and industrial ground  water  in  the area.  The amount of  ground  water



used from  these  units  has decreased  dramatically in  the  past  forty  years.



Heavy industrial  pumpage in Toledo  during the mid-1940's and  1950's  created  a



large cone of depression in which  ground  water in the  dolomite and limestone at



the FEI site  flowed in a  southwest direction  toward  the cone of  depression.



Pumping was reduced in 1958 and ground water levels subsequently  stabilized  and



then slowly began  to  recover.  During the  latter  part  of 1984,  FEI  installed



continuous water level  recorders  in  five bedrock wells  to   resolve  confusing



water level measurements and to determine  if there had been  a  change  in  ground



water flow  directions.  The  initial recorder data  indicated a flat  potentio-



metric surface.  The  facility  also contends  that barometric  pressure  changes



can be responsible for changes in  water levels over time  which are greater than



the gradient  across  the site.   Ground  water in  the  dolomite at  FEI  is  now



reported to flow in a north-northeast  direction.



     The Standard Oil  Company  refinery,  located  immediately  north-northeast  of



FEI, has numerous production and monitoring wells in the  bedrock.   Ground  water



pumping is  greatest during  the  summer,  creating a cone  of depression.   Inter-



mittent pumping  occurs year-round.   The  ground  water  flow  rate  toward  the



north-northeast is increased when  pumping occurs.



     The U.S.  Geological   Survey  (USGS)   in  Columbus,  Ohio   was  contacted  to



obtain additional  information  about  the  Greenfield  and Lockport  Formations.



The USGS is conducting a regional  ground  water study for  the  Toledo area  in  the



summer and fall of 1986, including the area of FBI's Otter Creek  Road facility.
                                       41

-------
A preliminary  evaluation  of  water  level  measurements  obtained  by  the  USGS
during 1986 indicate the regional  ground water flow direction in the Greenfield
and tockport formations under eastern Toledo  and Oregon to be toward the south-
east.  Preliminary  USGS  findings  indicate  the  ground   water  flow  direction
differs from that  reported  by  FEI;  however, this  may be attributed  to  local
influences such as  The  Standard Oil  Company's pumping.   The  ground water  flow
direction at FEI  is best indicated  by water level  measurements  at the  site.
     As a  part  of the  Task  Force investigation,  U.S. EPA  personnel  obtained
water level measurements  from all FEI  monitoring wells  on  January 23,  1986,
prior to purging or sampling  any  of  the  wells.   Ground water elevations in the
bedrock wells were  plotted to identify the local ground  water  flow direction.
Figure 6  shows  a  flat  potentiometric surface over  the FEI  site.   The  maximum
difference in elevation is less than 0.25 feet.  No uniform flow  direction  is
indicated by these  measurements.   However, the  water  level  indicator  used for
these measurements malfunctioned during use,  and  may have reduced  the  accuracy
of some of the measurements.
     A core of  the  upper  115 feet of bedrock  from  the  northeast  intersection
of Otter Creek  Road and  York Street  was obtained by FEI  in  August 1985,  and a
performance test of the limestone  and dolomite  was conducted in October  1985.
From these two events, some  characteristics  of  the  dolomite  and limestone  were
qualified by FEI  in reports  included in the Part B  application (see  Reference
14, Table 2).
     The porosity  of the  dolomite  and limestone was visually estimated by FEI
consultants from the rock  core.  The range  of  porosity  within the  Greenfield
ranges between 0 and 25 percent  and averages  8 percent.  The  Lockport  Formation
ranges in  porosity  between   5 and 40 percent  and   averages  22 percent.   The
                                       42

transmissivity was observed to  range widely,  from  10,000 to 66,000  gpd/foot,



because of  variations  in  the   water  holding  capacities  of  the  units.   A



transmissivity of 27,000  gpd/foot  was determined  by FEI  consultants  to  be  a



representative average for the units.  This value was estimated from the  average



transmissivity, 25,000  gpd/foot,   and   the   transmissivity  determined  by  a



distance-drawdown plot as  27,582  gpd/foot. The coefficient of storage determined



from the  distance  drawdown  was   9.37  x  10~5.   A  hydraulic  conductivity  of



32 feet/day  was  calculated  from  the   performance  test.   Utilizing  Darcy's



equation, the  ground  water velocity in  the  dolomite and limestone averages  6



feet per year  in  the  winter and 45  feet  per year in summer when  the  Standard



Oil Company's pumping is maximum.  The  net flow averages 28 feet  per year.  The



ground water flow direction in the dolomite  and limestone  is  toward the north-



northeast.



4.   Ground Water Conditions in  the Unconsol idated Sediments



     The hydraulic zone  identified nearest  to  the  surface is the  Lacustrine



deposits and the Lacustrine and  Upper  Till  contact.  FEI  performed  laboratory



tests on  samples  in  1985  and  determined  the  vertical  permeabilities  to  be  on



the order  of  10~7 to  10~8 cm/second.   The  hydraulic  conductivities,  average



values over the  length of  the  sand pack,  were determined  by  slug tests  and



found to be between  10~5 and 10~? cm/second.



     Similar tests were conducted on the  hydraulic zone  at the Upper Till/Lower



Till  contact.  Vertical permeabilities were  determined by  laboratory tests  to



be on  the order  of   10~8  to  10"9  cm/second,  while  hydraulic  conductivities



determined by slug tests were  about 10~6  to  10-? cm/second.



     The ground water flow directions and rates  within these two  zones  have not



been determined.   Potential  horizontal  flow is  indicated  due to the changes  in
                                       44

-------
static head  with  distance.  No  pattern  of  head  distribution was  discernible
from the water level  measurements obtained  by the  U.S. EPA on January 23, 1986.
Potential  vertical  flow from shallow  zones  to lower  zones  is  indicated  by the
decreasing static head with depth observed  in water level  measurements obtained
by the U.S.  EPA  and  FEI.   In 1985, FEI  installed  wells within the  till  units
but not at the contacts,  to  confirm if water  is moving vertically  through the
tills to bedrock.  No data are  yet available from  these new tills  wells at this
writing.
     All of  the  wells in  the  unconsolidated  sediments contained  some  water.
However, only 3  of 23 wells sampled  were  capable  of yielding three  times the
standing water volume  for  the  purge.   Seven of 23 wells  produced a  sufficient
volume of  water  (about  8  gallons)   for  all  Task  Force  samples  and  splits
provided to  FEI.   Most of the  wells  required more  than  one day to  purge and
sample.
D.   GROUND WATER MONITORING
1.   Pre-RCKA Monitoring
     The history   of   ground  water  monitoring  well   installation  is  directly
related to the hydrogeologic  studies  conducted at  the site.  Typically,  mon-
itoring wells were installed in some of the  borings drilled as  a part  of the
hydrogeologic investigations  conducted by the facility.  The first ground water
monitoring wells  were constructed  in 1974.   Eight 2-inch diameter PVC wells were
installed around   the  main  Otter  Creek  Road property.   These   wells  were
constructed at depths  of  about  20  feet  below  ground level.  Four  additional
wells near the Millard Avenue  Landfill  were added  to the monitoring  system in
1978; little  is  known about  their construction.   Five additional   wells  were
added in January  1981.
                                       45

-------
     Samples are  known  to  have  been  collected  semiannually  since  1978  and

analyzed for:

                              -  pH
                              -  Total  Alkalinity
                              -  Total  Hardness
                              -  Total  Iron
                              -  Chloride
                              -  Sulfate
                              -  Nitrate

     Sampling of  all  twelve  wells and  selected  other points  (domestic  wells,

creeks, city  drinking water)  continued  until  1982  for  an  expanded list  of

components which included:

                  Total  Iron                -   Total  Kjeldahl  Nitrogen
                  Total  Lead                -   Nitrate
                  Total  Magnesium           -   Sulfate
                  Conductivity              -   Chloride
                  Total  Organic Carbon      -   Non Filterable Residue
                  Total  Dissolved Calcium   -   Total  Residue
                  Total  Alkalinity          -   pH
                  Ammonia-nitrogen          -   Oil  and Grease

     The reliability  of  these  data  for use  in  determining  the existence  of

contamination at this site is limited.  This is due to the lack of a documented

sampling and analysis program,  including provisions for  quality assurance, and

several changes in well  designations during this  period.

2.   Interim Status Ground Water Monitoring

     The initial RCRA ground  water  monitoring system as it existed during 1982

consisted of  four wells  designated  as  1,  5,  L,  and  H.   Each  of  these  has

subsequently been known  by other designations:

     Well 1 is still known as well 1 and also SUG-1.

     Well 5 is currently known as well  10 or SDG-2.
                                       46

-------
     Well L has also been known as DEB 9, Well  5, and DDG-3.  This is not the
     same well  as ODNR well  615064 or the well  currently  known  as  DDG-3.   FEI
     reported that well  L  was apparently destroyed  and  replaced by  ODNR  well
     615064 on June  23,  1983.  No  new  background  data were  developed  for the
     replacement  we!1 .

     Well H has also been known as MH 13, Well  7, and DDG-2.  Although DDG-2
     and well H appear on  different well location  diagrams to be  hundreds  of
     feet apart,  FEI contends  that  Well  H and DDG-2  are the  same and that the
     older diagrams  are inaccurate.

     Changing of    well   designations  was  common   until   recently,  when   FEI

acknowledged the  confusion  these changes caused.   Two of these wells, 1 (SUG-1)

and 5 (SDG-2), are the original  1974 shallow wells.   The  other two  wells  used

for RCRA monitoring  at  this time,  Well  L and Well  H, are  converted domestic

wells completed in the bedrock.   Well 1  was  designated upgradient  by  FEI and

wells 5, L, and H were designated downgradient.  These wells  are  not completed

in the same  stratigraphic  zone.   The data generated  during  1982  indicate  that

FEI generally sampled  and analyzed ground water from these wells at the frequency

and for the  constituents  specified in 40 CFR  Part   265.92.   Replicate  samples

for the  indicator parameters  were  not  collected in  1982.   Only one  value  is

presented per quarter for each of the indicator parameters.

     In 1982, the Ohio EPA  received an alternate  ground water monitoring system

proposal  from FEI.  This  plan proposed monitoring of eight  Lacustrine and  till

wells, and one bedrock well.  This plan  was  not approved.

     Four additional  bedrock  wells  were drilled  in  1982  and  1983.   The wells

were cased to the top  of the bedrock with 4-inch inside diameter carbon steel

casing.  The annul us, the  area  between  the  casing and the  strata,  is reported

on the well  logs  to  have  been backfilled with  cuttings.  No seal  is  reported  on

the logs  at  the   base  of  the  casing.   These  wells  are  designated  as  OUG-1,

DUG-2, DDG-1, and DOG-3.   A new ground water program utilizing these wells was
                                       47

-------
received by the Ohio EPA on March 1, 1983.  Well OUG-2  was  not included in the

plan, but  was    installed  shortly   afterward  (May   1983).   Monitoring  wells

designated as  DUG-1  DUG-2,  DOG-1,  DDG-2,  and DDG-3,  were  sampled  for  RCRA

monitoring purposes during 1983 and  1984.   Wells  SUG-1, SDG-1, and SDG-2 were

also sampled during this  time.  Wells DUG-1 and OUG-2 were designated upgradient

and ODG-1, DDG-2, and DDG-3 designated  downgradient.

     As stated  in the Section II.C.,  FEI reported  a  ground  water flow  direction

change to the  regulatory  agencies  in  January  1985.    Subsequently, a  new  moni-

toring systan was  developed  by  FEI.   Eight  new wells designated  Rl through  R8

were drilled between about April  1985  and  September  1985.  The new monitoring

system consisted  of  thirteen bedrock  wells  (see Figure 7).   This monitoring

system was  in  use during  the  Task Force  inspection.   The  first  sampling  of

these monitoring wells  in 1985 was  during  September.   One  year of  quarterly

background is required by  RCRA  for the  new monitoring wells.   FEI reports-that

the DOG  and  DUG  wells  have  been  replaced  since the  Task  Force  inspection  by

bedrock wells designated R9 through R13.  All   "R" series wells are  constructed

similarly to Well  Rl,  illustrated in  Figure  8.  The installation methods  and

construction materials  indicate these wells to be capable of  yielding  samples

representative  of ground water.   The  description of  well installation  below was

taken from Volume 4 of  Reference  14,  listed  in Table  2.

     "Well construction  started  with  a 6-inch  diameter  borehole  drilled  by
     cable tool.   The  outer  protective  casing was  advanced  as  the  hole  was
     drilled.  The boreholes penetrated 10 to  18  feet,  as  an  average, into the
     bedrock aquifer.  Drilling  was terminated when the  volume  of ground  water
     encountered was determined  to be  sufficient for  sampling  purposes.

     "The 6-inch diameter borehole was  flushed  for  several  hours  to  remove all
     rock cuttings  and  any  extraneous  water  that  had  been  added  during  the
     cable tool drilling.  The  inner  casing,  consisting  of  2-inch diameter  316
     stainless  steel  casing and  a  5-foot section of  stainless  steel  screen with
     0.010-inch slots,  was then  set into the bedrock.   A filter pack  of Ottawa

  WELL  CONSTRUCTION  SUMMARY

-------
     sand was placed around  the  screen  and filled the borehole to  a  height  of
     2 to 6 feet above the top of the screen.  The well screen and sand pack were
     sealed into the  bedrock with  a  layer of  bentonite  pellets several  feet
     thick.  The remainder of the annular space between  the inner and  the outer
     casings was pressure-grouted  with  a  bentonite  slurry that extended  from
     the top of the bentonite seal  up to ground surface.

     "All the tools and  well  materials  were  steam  cleaned prior to  use.   The
     wells have locking caps and dedicated stainless  steel  and  Teflon® sampling
     pumps. All  the wells have locking  caps,  and  their water level  measurement
     reference points  have been surveyed to the nearest  0.01 foot by a licensed
     surveyor."

3.   Other Ground  Water Monitoring During Interim Status

a.   Ground Water  Monitoring Wells

     In late  1984  and  continuing  into 1985,  FEI   conducted  a  hydrogeologic

study of the site to characterize the geologic  and hydraulic properties  of the

lacustrine and  till  deposits.   Nearly  twenty  five  borings  were  drilled  and

logged during this  study, with  two piezometers  installed  in  the  vicinity  of

each boring.

     These piezometers  are   generally  nested,  with  wells  completed  at  the

Lacustrine/Upper Till  contact  and  the Upper Till/Lower Till contact.  Typical

well construction  consists of 2-inch diameter  Schedule  40  PVC  with  PVC screens,

5 feet  long,  having 0.010-inch slots.  The screens  have  sand packs  extending

from the  bottom of the  boring  to  a  level  2  to  9  feet  above  the top  of the

screen.  The  sand  pack  is   sealed  from  the  remainder of  the  borenole  by  a

bentonite pellet layer or slurry,  3 to  10  feet  thick, and  the  remainder  of the

annulus is filled  with a bentonite slurry up to the  ground surface.   Initially,

a bentonite-cement  grout was used (wells F-l and G-l),  but the  subsequent wells

were grouted with  bentonite  only.

     Each of these piezometers  are  equipped with dedicated 1.7-inch  Brainard-

Kilman hand  pumps.   FEI  uses  these  wells  for  water level  measurements  to
                                       51

-------
determine ground water flow  potentials  and  to obtain ground water  samples  for

use in determining  ground  water  quality  and the  presence  of  hazardous  waste

constituents in the ground  water.

b.   Monitoring Trenches

     As referenced previously, the  City  of  Toledo and FEI  signed  a Waterlines

Security Agreement on March  22,  1984.   This  agreement  is  designed  to  safeguard

the two  raw  waterlines   which  cross the  site  from  possible  contamination  by

FEI's waste disposal  landfill.   The agreement (Appendix A) addresses six general

topics which include:

           Survey and monument  installation     -   Monitoring system
           Waste area location                  -   Site  inspection
           Waste area design/construction      -   Termination  agreement

     The monitoring   system  (and   site  inspection  and  testing  program)   is

discussed below  based  on   the  written   agreement,  diagrams  made  while  the

monitoring system  was  built,   a  technical  evaluation  of  the  agreement   by

Woodward Clyde  Consultants  (Reference  13, Table  2),  and information  reviewed

during the Task Force survey.

     The agreement states that  waste cells shall  be offset a minimum of 40 feet

from the  closest  watarline  and  that  monitoring  trenches   will  be  installed

within this 40'  buffer  zone.   Each areas monitoring trench  shall  be  installed

after the construction  of  the  waste cell liner  and prior to  waste  reaching  a

level of the lowest limit of  the  waterline on the side closest to the waterline.

     To date, two  monitoring trenches  have  been constructed.   These  trenches

are located north  and south of  the water  lines,  adjacent  to Cells H  and  I.

These will be referred  to  as trench H  (north) and  trench  I (south) hereafter.

Cell H  is currently  active and   Cell   I is  under  construction  as  indicated

previously.
                                       52

-------
     The location of the water!ines has been marked on the ground surface above
the lines with iron  stakes  and  the offset boundaries are marked  with  concrete
monuments (as  the  agreement  specifies).   A  distance  greater  than  40  feet
(approximately 45 feet)  is  maintained  between  the waterlines  and the  current
disposal cells.  The monitoring trenches (both H and I) parallel the  waterlines
and maintain a 20-foot offset from the lines.
     The bottom of  trench H  was  excavated to a depth of  578 to  580  feet above
MSL which maintains  a  minimum depth  of one foot and maximum depth of  2.5 feet
beneath the  bottom  of the  northern  water  line.   The bottom  of trench  I  was
excavated to  a depth of 574 to  575.5  feet  above  MSL and maintains  a minimum
depth of  2   feet  and  maximum  depth   of  3.5  feet   beneath  the  bottom  of  the
southern 78-inch  waterline.   The trench  bottoms are sloped toward  sumps that
are spaced approximately 250 to 300 feet apart.
     Trench H is  approximately  2.5 feet wide from top to bottom.  Trench I  is
3.5 feet  wide  at  the  base, becomes  4.8 feet wide throughout  the  middle half,
and the uppermost 4.5 feet  is 14 feet wide. Trench  H is filled with gravel to a
level 2 feet from the surface.  Trench I has a five  to 6-inch pipe in  the bottom
and is filled with  gravel  up to 4.5 feet  from  the surface.  Both trenches have
been sealed  with  recompacted  blue  clay  above these  gravel  packs  to prevent
infiltration of surface water.
     Three sumps  along both  trenches are located  at  the  low  points  within the
trenches.  The bottoms  of  the  sumps are  2.5 feet  beneath  the bottom  of  the
trench.  These sumps are packed  with  gravel  and  have  a riser  pipe,  slotted
within the sump,  connecting the sump  with the surface.  Trench H has  6-inch PVC
riser pipes, and  trench I has 12-inch  PVC riser pipes.   The integrity of the sump
is maintained using  a two to  3-inch diameter  pipe  set  vertically  within  the
sump hole.
                                       53

-------
     Weekly inspections of all  boundaries,  liners,  and  trench  caps  is  specified

in the  agreement  to detect  erosion  or damage  to  the  monitoring  system.   If

liquid is found, samples  will  be  taken  and tested  (at  least  semi-annually)  for

40 Part CFR 265 indicator  parameters.   Additional  testing protocols are to  be

employed should the  indicator  parameters  results indicate significant  levels.

     In 1985,  the  City of Toledo  hired  Woodward-Clyde  Consultants to perform an

Independent Technical  Evaluation  of the Water!ine Security Agreement (Reference

13, Table 2).   This evaluation  concluded  that, proper  implementation  of  the

Security Agreement  should  result  in maintenance of  continued acceptable  per-

formance of the  pipelines.   The  consultants  recommended  the   following  to

enhance the technical  security  of the pipelines:

                       Summary  of Primary  Recommendations

     To provide ample warning time to take  corrective   measures,   the depth of
     the future monitoring  trench  should  be  no less  than  3 feet  below  the
     Lacustrine Clay-Glacial  Till  interface,  or  5  feet below the  invert level
     of the nearest waterline,  whichever is deeper.  The  width of  the trenches
     should be no  less than 2 1/2 feet.

     The recompacted blue clay  cap  for  all   trenches   should be  no  less  than
     3 feet thick.

     Monitoring the raw water in  the pipelines,   upstream  and  downstream of the
     site, should  be conducted  as described in  the  text.

     Analysis  of roadways crossing the   pipeline  should be conducted  to verify
     the pipelines'  likely structural  integrity.

     Moisture  contact control,  as well  as  density,  should  be  part of compaction
     specifications.

     The interior  of the pipelines,  and  the   outside   (if possible)  should be
     monitored every five years for corrosion.
                                       54

-------
4.   Ground Water Monitoring Proposed for RCRA Permit
     FEI was in  the  process  of preparing a  revised  Part  8  application to meet
the requirements of 40 CFR Part  270.14(c)  and  40  CFR Part 264 Subpart F during
the January  1986 field  evaluation.  The  Task Force  deferred  review  of  the
proposed ground  water  monitoring  system until the  revisions  were  available.
The revised  ground  water monitoring  system  proposal was  completed  by  FEI  in
February 1986, and partially  revised  again in July  1986.   FEI  provided  a copy
of the revised Part B application pertaining to ground water to the Task Force.
Discussed below are the point of  compliance,  proposed bedrock and leak detection
wells, and constituents for analysis.
a.   Point of Compliance
     In the  revised Part 3 application,  FEI  proposes  to  represent  the point  of
compliance by a  line  starting  at the  northwest  corner  of the property near
Landfill Area 2,  following the  northern  and eastern property  boundaries to a
point near the northeast corner of Cell  I (see Figure 9).  The point  of compli-
ance as described by FEI crosses Otter  Creek  Road between  Landfill  Area 2 and
Cell F.  The  waste  management area of  FEI  is  not delineated  on  a topographic
map as required by 40 CFR Part 270.14(c)(3).
     The waste management  area  is  defined  in  40  CFR Part  264.95(b)  as  " the
limit projected  in  the horizontal  plane of the  area on  which waste  will  be
placed during  the  active  life  of  a  regulated  unit."   Since  "the  facility
contains more than one  regulated unit,  the waste management  area  is described
by an imaginary line circumscribing the  several regulated units."  The point  of
compliance at which the ground water  protection standard of 40 CFR Part 264.92
applies and  at   which  monitoring ,nust   be  conducted  is  "a  vertical  surface
                                       55

located at the  hydraulically  downgradient limit of  the  waste management  area
that extends  down into the  uppermost  aquifer underlying the  regulated  units,"
as provided in 40 CFR Part 264.95.
     The regulated units  at FEI  which  received hazardous waste  after July 26,
1982, are  Cells  F and  H.  As additional  units are  used  for hazardous  waste
disposal, FEI  will  be  required   to  ensure  that  the  ground  water  monitoring
system  fulfills  the appropriate   regulatory  requirements.   Of  particular
concern to the Task  Force was  future  Cell  M.  Area  M is  distant  from the point
of compliance (greater than  1000  feet).  The Task Force  recommends  that  Area M
should be monitored  at its downgradient limit.
b.   Well Locations  - Bedrock  Wells
     FEI contends that  the  bedrock,  principally the  Greenfield and  Lockport
formations, is the uppermost aquifer under the  facility.   The  proposed monitor-
ing system consists  of  thirteen  wells;  all  are composed  of stainless  steel,
equipped with dedicated  sampling  devices,  and  constructed in a  similar  manner
(see Section   II.D.2.).   The  "DUG-DOG  series"  wells  have  been  retired  and
replaced with "R series"  wells as proposed in the February 1986  Part B applica-
tion revision.  The proposed  bedrock  monitoring system  consists of  six  wells
designated as  upgradient;  R-2,  R-6,  R-7, R-ll,  R-12, R-13, and  seven  wells
designated as downgradient  R-l,  R-3,  R-4,  R-5, R-8, R-9, and R-10  (see  Figure
10).  The continuous  water level  recorders remain in the "DUG-DOG series" wells
for use in determining ground  water  flow directions.
     The downgradient wells are   spaced  at  an  average of  500   feet  along  the
northern and  eastern property  boundaries.  The  rationale  for  well  placement is
not shown in  FEI's 1986 Part B application revision.  The Technical  Review Team
used Table 2-1 of the  August  1985 draft of  the  Technical  Enforcement Guidance
                                       57

Document (TEGD) published by  USEPA,  to evaluate well spacing.   The  results  of

the evaluation indicate that the wells should  be more closely  spaced than they

were at the time  of this review.   Using  the  final  TEGD  (September,  1986)  the

Task Force came to the same conclusion.

     All bedrock wells are  screened  near  the top  of the  bedrock.  The facility

presents no discussion  or  information on the  vertical  movement of  the  ground

water within the bedrock.

c.   Well  Locations - Leak Detection Wells

     FEI proposes to monitor  nine  well cluster locations,  generally  along  the

facility's defined  "point  of  compliance" for  leak detection (see Figure  11).

Each well  cluster  consists  of two  wells, one  screened at  the  Lacustrine/Upper

Till contact,  and  the  other  screened  at the  Upper Till/Lower Till  contact.

Each leak detection  well  has  similar  construction (see  Section  II.D.3)  and  a

dedicated sampling device.

     The Task  Force  determined  several concerns  with  respect  to the  sampling

equipment in  the  leak  detection wells,   which,  as described previously,  were

hand pumps  manufactured  by Brainard-Kilman.   The  main  concerns with the pump

are summarized below:

   - The  bottom of  the well   cannot  be  measured  without   removing  the  pump.
Bottom measurements  can  be  used  to  determine  if  the  well   is  silting  up.

   - The  operation of  the  PVC pump  may allow  volatile  compounds  to  escape.
Laboratory testing is  recommended  to demonstrate  if the  pumps  retain  volatile
compounds under low-yield conditions.

     Since ground  water movement  directions  or  potentials within  the  uncon-

solidated sediments are not known, placement of detection  wells only along the

northern boundaries  of  the  site   is  inadequate.   The  detection wells  should

circumscribe the waste management  areas.
                                       59

-------
     The spacing of the detection wells proposed  by  FEI  is  generally 500 feet.

However, the interval  between  two  of the wells,  F-l and  H-2,  is  about  1000

feet.  The  rationale  for  horizontal  spacing  of leak detection  wells  is  not

presented in the Part  B application.  The consensus reached  by  the Technical

Review Team is  that the vertical  spacing  of the wells,  in  the  unconsolidated

materials at the  Lacustrine/Upper Till contact  and the  Upper Till/Lower  Till

contact, appears adequate.

d.   Constituents for Analyses  - Bedrock Wells

     FEI's revised  Part B  application presents  a  discussion concerning  the

choice of constituents for analysis.  To choose the constituents, FEI addressed

the following areas:

                          Presence in the  leachate
                          Geologic,  physical, and chemical
                            characteristics of the soil
                          Transformation
                          Degradation
                          Immobilization

Ground water  flow  rate  and  direction  in  the  bedrock  is  to  be  determined

annually by analysis of ground  water elevations, and/or pump or slug test.   The

Task Force  recommends  that the  ground   water   flow  rate   and  direction  be

determined more frequently than  annually due  to the observed flat  potentiometric

surface, the documented recent  seasonal ground  water flow reversals, and local

influences on ground water  flow directions such as  the  Standard  Oil Company's

pumping.  The Task Force also recommends that  ground water  levels  in all wells

on the site be  used  to determine  the ground  water flow  rate  and  any localized

variations.

     The facility will  establish  background data  for any parameter  for which

there is no previously  established  background  data, by  sampling  quarterly  for

one year.   The  constituents   were   divided  into  the  three  sections  below.


                                       61

-------
i.    Proposed Indicator Parameters

     The facility proposes  to  sample  and analyze  on a  semiannual   basis  the
following parameters:

                             -  pH
                             -  specific conductance
                             -  total  organic  carbon

     Statistical  analyses are proposed  to  be  performed on  the  analytical  data

on  a semiannual  basis.  FEI proposes  to use analyses of covariance to determine

the presence of  a  statistically  significant  difference between  upgradient  and

downgradient water quality.  An  Ohio  EPA  evaluation  of this method  has  found

it  to be inappropriate;  thus,  the Task Force recommends that  this  statistical

evaluation  not  be used to determine  significant differences  between  upgradient

and individual  downgradient wells along the point  of compliance.

11.  Proposed Ground  Water Quality Parameters

     The six constituents proposed by  the  facility  for monitoring  ground  water

quality on  a semi-annual  basis  are:

                           - Sodium      - Chloride
                           - Manganese   - Sulfate
                           - Iron        - Phenol

Statistical  analyses   consistent  with those performed for the  indicator  param-

eters are proposed to be  performed on these data.    When one  or  more  of the  six

constituents are detected, the  frequency of monitoring  for  that  constituent is

proposed to be  increased  to quarterly.  If concentrations  are found to increase

for three consecutive  quarters, then the provisions of  40 CFR  264.98(h) are to be

implemented.  The detection  limits  should be  presented  with the  constituents

in  the Part B application.  Appropriate detection  limits  will aid in  determina-

tion of offsite  migration.   The   Task  Force  also  recommends that 40  CFR  Part

264.98(h) be implemented  as  soon as  a constituent  is  found to  statistically

increase.
                                       52

-------
i i i. Proposed Waste Constituents

     The following thirteen Appendix VIII compounds were proposed by the facil-

ity  for semiannual monitoring:

             - Cyanide                - Hexavalent chromium
             - Xylene                 - Cadmium
             - Toluene                - Benzene
             - 1,1-dichloroethane     - 1,1,1-trichloroethane
             - Chloroform             - Trichloroethylene
             - Ethyl benzene           - 1,2-dichloroethane
             - Lead

Compliance monitoring is proposed to  be implemented only  if three or  more  of

these thirteen compounds are detected in samples taken  on two sequential sampl-

ing  events.

     The Task  Force  recommends  that  detection  limits  be  presented with  the

constituents listed  in  the Part  B  application.   Appropriate  detection limits

will aid in the determination of  offsite migration.  The Task  Force recommends

that a determination  be made of the effect of halogenated organic  compounds  on

present TOX values, and  that  any compounds found be added to the above list.  It

is  also recommended that methylene chloride and methyl  ethyl  ketone be added  to

the  list.



e.    Constituents for Analysis  Leak  Detection Wells

     The leak  detection  system is  to be  sampled  on  an  annual  basis  for  the

13  waste constituents listed in Section d.iii. above.  FEI proposes to tabulate

the  results and use them to determine offsite migration.  No details concerning

how  this  will  be done  are  presented  in  the  revised Part  B  application.

5.    Sampling and Analysis  Plan (SAP)

     On January  8,  1986,  sampling  procedures  were demonstrated  by BEC,  FEI

contractors, for Task Force personnel.   Some  difficulty  was  encountered due  to
                                       63

-------
extreme cold weather conditions, which caused Well  Wizard® hose lines to freeze.
Each stage  of  the sampling  process  is discussed  below.  Specific details  of
ground water  sample  collection  are   contained   in  FBI's  internal  "Standard
Operating Procedures."  These SOPs are not discussed  here because  FEI asserted
RCRA confidentiality.
a.   Water Level  Determination
     This determination according  to  the  facility SAP  is made  using  the  Well
Wizard® Water  Level  Meter,  model  6000.   The  SAP states readings  are to  be
recorded to  the  nearest  hundredth (0.01)  foot.   The  tape  accompanying  this
device, as described  in  current literature, is graduated  in  twentieths (0.05)
of  a foot.  The  actual   water  level   probe used  for the  observed   sampling
demonstration appeared to be  equipped  with a different  tape  than  described  in
current Well Wizard®  literature.   The  tape  used  was  round instead  of  flat  and
was graduated  in  tenths  (0.10)  of a  foot.   The  SAP  suggests  the  use  of  a
chalked tape  in  the  absence of  a properly operating  electronic  water  level
probe, this   method  is  not  recommended.   The   field  demonstration  effort
indicated field personnel  did not  rinse the level   sensor probe or  tape between
wells.  This  is  recommended  procedure  and  should  be  documented  in  the  SAP.
b.   Well  Evacuation
     Several different  procedures  are  followed  for  well  evacuation  at  FEI.
These procedures depend  on the  presence  of various dedicated pumping devices
which, in turn, are  correlated  to well  construction  and  the  zone  in  which  the
well  is finished.   One general  procedure used with all  types  of well evacuation
equipment was the disposal of purge water.   The standard practice  for disposal
was to dump purge water on the ground near the well  being purged.  This  procedure
should be specified in the SAP.  Should a well be determined to be contaminated,
an alternative method for purge water disposal  is  recommended  to be specified.

                                       64

-------
     Evacuation of two-inch  inside-diameter bedrock  wells  is  accomplished  by



dedicated bladder  pumps  (Well  Wizards®)  installed  two  feet  above  the  well



screen.  The pumps are composed of  Teflon®  and the well casing and screen are of



stainless steel  construction.  The  SAP  indicated  these  types  of wells  are



equipped with  inflatable  packers  to  reduce the purge  volume  required.   This



device was not used  in  the demonstration to the Task  Force.   The total  volume



of the well was calculated and three times that  volume was planned to be evacu-



ated.  The actual  volume  evacuated  was based on the  pump rats as  supplied  by



the manufacturer.  Using the  demonstrated  method  of evacuation the Task  Force



observed a high potential  for  error in the  recorded purge  volume.  The  collec-



tion and actual physical  measurement of the purge  volume is recommended.  It is



suggested the  facility  document   repeatable  pump   rates   for  measured  purged



volumes for each  well.



     Evacuation of four-inch  inside-diameter  bedrock  wells is  accomplished  by



dedicated submersible  stainless  steel   centrifugal  pumps  with  polypropylene



tubing.  These pumps  are removed from the wells  between sampling events, marked



to be returned to  the same  well,  and steam cleaned prior to  use.   A generator



is required for the pump operation.   These wells were retired from RCRA monitor-



ing after the Task Force inspection.



     Evacuation of two-inch  PVC wells  is  performed  by  a  dedicated PVC  hand



pump.  These  wells are shallow and  finished  in  glacial  tills  or lacustrine



silts. Operation  of tha pump requires the addition of a  handle and an up-and-down



pumping motion.  Water flows from the pump continuously and at  a rate compatible



with sample bottle filling.   Almost  all  of these wells  were found  to  be  slow



producing, going  dry  before  three  volumes  could be  evacuated.   As evacuation



approaches dryness the  flow  is  reduced to spurts  or sprays  of  water.   Two
                                       65

-------
alternate methods of  evacuation  for these  shallow wells are  discussed  in  the



SAP.  A peristaltic pump and stainless steel bailer are  referenced,  but  it  was



not determined if this equipment  was available  for use.



c.   Sample Withdrawal



     All wells have  dedicated  pumps  of  some  variety  that  are  used for  well



evacuation and sample  withdrawal.   The designated RCRA  wells  had either  Well



Wizard® or submersible centrifugal  pumps  for  sampling  purposes.   Both sampling



systems require  a  gasoline-driven  generator  as  a power  source.   During  the



demonstration sampling effort the generator was  placed  in  a  position such  that



the exhaust drifted through the area in which  sample  bottles  were being  filled.



Sampling personnel  also  did not appear  to be  aware  of  other events such  as



traffic, fumes,  or  dust  that  could  possibly  have affected  the  samples  being



collected.  Weather conditions at the  time may have  influenced  this  aspect  of



sample collection.   Thorough event  observations were noted on  field  log  sheets



in the past; the need  for  such observations are  recommended  to be added  to  the



sampling protocol in the SAP.



     Volatile samples  are  sampled   first   in   most   protocols.    However,   at



FEI they were sampled  toward  the  end of the sampling sequence.  Volatile  samples



also were  not closely checked  for  the  presence of  trapped  air.  Specific



directions for VOA  sampling  are included  in  the SAP.   These  directions  are



recommended to include a  requirement  for checking for bubbles in  VOA samples.



Preservatives were   added  to  some  samples  midway through  filling the  sample



bottle, with the bottle  then being  allowed to  overflow.  This  should  in  most



cases require a pH  check to insure  adequate preservation.  Care should be taken



to prevent significant overflow of  preserved sample bottles.
                                       66

-------
d.   Field Analysis
     The SAP specifies field analysis protocols for temperature, pH and conduc-
tivity.  The procedures observed during the demonstration to the Task Force did
not exactly follow these protocols.  Presently the facility removes the samples
to the FEI laboratory  area  for  analysis.   This is  an  acceptable procedure, but
the SAP is recommended to be updated to reflect this  change.  The  collection of
all four field parameter aliquots before any other parameters is questioned.  A
better evaluation of  sample variability  would be  obtained if the four aliquots
could be distributed throughout  the sampling sequence.
e.   Laboratory Analysis
     As mentioned in Section II.A.2 of this report, all   four laboratories used
by FEI  were  evaluated by  the   Laboratory  Evaluation  Team.   The  quality  of
the data from the ETC laboratory was found to be acceptable.  The data from the
CEP and 8EC  laboratories  were also found to  be acceptable,  with  the exception
of analyses for  Radium  226  and  228 from CEP and TOC from BEC.  The results for
these parameters were  considered questionable due  to unacceptable performance
by the laboratories  in  performance  evaluation  samples sent to the laboratories
by EPA.  Certain data  from  Clow were also  considered questionable.  Individual
reports on each laboratory can  be found in Appendix C.
     The chain  of  custody  procedures  were  found  to be  acceptable  for  RCRA
sample tracking purposes at  BEC, ETC, and Clow.  However, at CEP the samples do
not arrive at  the  laboratory  under  a  custody seal,  which is  contrary  to the
facility's SAP.
                                       67

E.   GROUND WATER  QUALITY DATA INTERPRETATION
1.   Task Force Analysis
     Samples were  analyzed by  the  EPA  contractor  laboratories  for the  parameter
groups shown in Table  1,  except for parameters  which  were not obtainable  from
poorly producing  wells,   as  indicated  in  Appendix  B.  Laboratory analytical
results were obtained from two EPA contractor  laboratories  participating  in the
Contract Laboratory  Program   (CLP).   One  laboratory,   CompuChem  of   Research
Triangle Park,  North Carolina, analyzed  the samples for specified organic  com-
pounds, while  the  other, Centec  of   Salem,  Virginia,  analyzed   for  metals
and indicator  parameters.   Standard  quality  control   measures  were   observed
incl uding:
     the analysis  of field and laboratory  blanks  to allow  distinction  of  possi-
     ble contamination due to  sample handling,
     analysis of laboratory spiked samples and performance  evaluation  samples,
     analysis of laboratory and sample duplicates  to estimate  precision,  and
     the review and interpretation of  the  results  of these  control measures.
These procedures can be  found  in  the  Quality Assurance  Project Plan (QAPP) for
this  site dated January 1986.
     The performance evaluation samples were  samples  of known analyte concen-
trations prepared   by  the  USEPA  Environmental   Monitoring  Systems  Laboratory,
Cincinnati, Ohio.   The  QA/QC   summary  can  be  found  in Appendix D.   Table   6
provides a  summary,  by parameter, of the analytical  techniques  used and the
reference methods  for the  sample analyses.   Appendix E is a table of the positive
analytical  results found  above detection levels.
2.   Interpretation of Data From Bedrock Wells
     The analytical  data  interpreted in this  section  were obtained from  wells

and 7B), DOG-3 (5) and 8.  The Task Force sampled wells R2, R4,  R5, R6, R7 and R8,

and both Task  Force  and past  facility data  were used  in this evaluation.   A

review of the Task Force data shows the following:

                  Well      Parameter           Concentrations

                   R2      Acetone                 11.0 ppb
                   R4      Acetone                 10.0 ppb
                   K6      Aroclor 1260 (PC8)        8.3 ppb

     The Task Force disregarded the findings of acetone  in  wells  R2  and  R4, as

acetone was also detected in corresponding blanks.

     It should be  noted that TOX  (total   organic  halogens) values in  the  past

facility monitoring data vary between  non-detectable levels to 120  ppb.  In the

opinion of the  Task  Force  these  results  do not  indicate definite leakage  of

hazardous waste from this  facility into  this  aquifer.  However,  it is  recom-

mended that TOX be monitored closely by FEI during future  interim status  sampling

to establish if any trends exist.

     While 8.3 ppb of PC8  is  a concentration  of concern,  its  presence in  well

R6 is not  felt to be attributed  to leaking waste  cells at the facility because

well  R6 is an  upgradient  well.  Also, no other analytical data from this  well

indicate contamination.   These results are  felt to be anomalous because  PCB's

are not  known  to readily  migrate through clay to  ground water.  A  possible

explanation for this finding  would arise  if  the well  were  contaminated  during

construction, since it  is  located  on  the property  of the former Bill's  Road

Oiling Service facility referenced previously,  and adjacent  to  a major  rail

yard.  The Task  Force  recommends that FEI determine if the  PCS  contamination

found in R6  is  due to  well  construction, or  if  the ground  water  is  in  fact

contaminated.

3.   Interpretation of Data from Deep Till  Wells

     The analytical  data interpreted  in  this  section were  obtained  from wells

Fld-F3d, Gld, G3d,  Hld-H4d,  Ild-I5d,  Mld-M8d,  MRld-MR3d,  4,  11,  14,  and  18.

The Task Force sampled  wells  Fid,  F2d, Gld, Hid, H2d, H4d, M4d, M7d, MR2d, and

MR3d (see Figure  12)  .  Both  Task Force and past  facility data  were  used in

this evaluation.    A  review   of the   Task  Force  data  shows  the  following:

     All  of the metals results listed above exceed the Interim Primary Drinking

Water Standards;  however,  these  metals  are  found  naturally  in  clay.   Low

concentrations of dissolved metals and high turbidity were found in many of the


                                       71

-------
samples.  Dissolved metals  are  felt to be  better indicators of  contamination



from the site,  and very low  concentrations  were  found.   The high  turbidity



results were thought by the Task Force to indicate  the presence of  clay parti-



cles in the total  metals samples, thus explaining the high  metal concentrations



found.  Also, there  are no  background data  available to  determine  if  these



parameters  are increasing in concentration over time.  Thus, the Task Force does



not consider these results  to be an indication of contamination from  the  site.



     The high pH in well Fid is due to the use  of  cement grout in the  well  and  is



not felt to be an indication of contamination  from the waste cells.



     The Task Force sampling found  very small  amounts of  organics  in two wells,



specifically, DOT in well  Fid and  2-methyl-cyclopentanone  in well M4d.   Of the



ten deep till wells  sampled,  four did not  produce  enough  water to sample for



all organic parameters; thus,  the Task Force was  not able to obtain  data suffi-



cient to fully evaluate the groundwater  in  this  zone  for  contamination  by the



facility.  During  a  review of  the  facility's   past  data,  the single  set  of



results available from an October  1985 sampling  event for well F3d (SWld) did



show TOX at 860  ppb,  TOC at  105  ppm, BOD at  59 ppm, COD at 340 ppm  and nitrogen/



NH3 at 69 ppm.  The log of  well  F3d indicates  that the well  was  drilled  through



six feet of  organic clay fill  near the surface;  thus, the  Task  Force  felt this



indicated a probable construction contamination problem in  this  well.



     The Task Force could not conclude that there is  contamination  of this  zone,



based on the  available organic  data.   Thus,  further  sampling  of the  zone  is



recommended for organic parameters.  Also the construction  records  of well F3d



should be further  investigated  to  determine  if  the  existence of  contamination



of the sample is attributable  to well  construction practices.

4.   Interpretation of Data from Shallow Lacustrine Wells

     The analytical  data  interpreted  in  this section  was  obtained from  wells

His, H4s, M4s, M7s, MR2s,  MR3s,  SUG-1,  SOG-1 and  SOG-2.  Both  Task  Force  and

past facility data  were  used  in this evaluation.  A  review of  the Task  Force

data shows the following:

     The Task Force does not consider the high total  netal  concentrations  found

in well  M7s as indications of contamination for the  same reasons  stated in the

previous section concerning the  deep till  wells.

     Both facility and Task Force  values  for  TOX,  as shown  in  Figure  12,  show

increased concentrations of TOX in  areas  of  early  landfill ing activity.  These

areas are near well  SDG-1, SDG-2,  SUG-1, and  H2.

     It  should be noted  that  of the thirteen  wells  sampled by the  Task  Force

in this   zone,  only  two were  able  to produce  enough  water to analyze  for the

full  range of organic parameters.   Thus, the  organic data available to  the Task

Force are incomplete.   It  should  also be  noted  that an October  1985  facility

sample of well  F3s did  show TOC at  165  ppm, BOD at  110  ppm and  COD at  560 ppm,

but it  is  suspected  that  this  well  was  constructed   in  refuse  and  is  not
                                       73

source of  constituents  in  this   zone.   The  Task  Force   recommends  further



sampling of the zone for organic parameters.



5.   Interpretation of Data  from Water Line  Trenches



     The Task Force found some  total  metals concentrations to  exceed  drinking



water standards  in  an  analysis  of  water  contained  in  monitoring  trenches.



These results (see  Appendix  E)  were  not  considered to indicate  contamination



from the site  for  the same  reasons  stated  in  the interpretation of data  from



deep till wells.  No  organics were found  in the Task Force samples.   A  review



of the  facility's   existing  monitoring   data   also  found   no   indication  of



contamination.  Thus,  the Task  Force  concludes  that there  is no current  basis



to indicate contamination  from the  site in the  area surrounding  the  water  lines



in the vicinity of  Cells H and I.

                                         REGION V

   DATE- May 16, 1986

SUBJECT: On-Site Evaluation of the Environmental Testing
        and Certification Corporation, Edison, New Jersey

       : James H. Adams, Jr., Chief
        Quality Assurance Office

     TO: Alfons R. Winklhofer, Chief
        Eastern District Office

        ATTENTION:  Joseph Fredle


        On April  17  and 18, 1986, the  Quality Assurance staff  conducted  an on-site
        evaluation of the Environmental  Testing  and  Certification (ETC) Corporation,
        Edison, New Jersey pursuant to Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ground-
        water monitoring activities  at  the Fondessy  site.  The  purpose of the visit
        was to evaluate the suitability  of the laboratory's standard operating proce-
        dures for the  analysis  of Appendix VIII  organic  constituents  of 40 CFR 141.
        The laboratory  was   not  required  to  analyze  USEPA   performance   evaluation
        samples to demonstrate  its analytical  capabilities.

        The evaluation team has  observed many excellent aspects of laboratory proce-
        dures.  The ETC  personnel  are highly  qualified to  perform  trace analysis of
        organics in RCRA groundwater  samples.

        The evaluation  team  wishes  to thank the  laboratory staff  for their courtesy
        and cooperation during  the on-site evaluation.

        Since no  deficiencies   were  observed  and since  the  evaluation team  has  no
        recommendations to  offer to  the laboratory to  improve its data quality, this
        memorandum describes the observations  that were made during the evaluation of
        ETC's organic  analysis   capabilities.   The evaluation covered  the following
        areas:  Personnel,  Laboratory Equipment  and  Instrumentation,  Analytical  Me-
        thodology and Quality Assurance/Quality Control.

        PERSONNEL

        The laboratory  staff is competent to  perform  complex  analyses of  waste-site
        samples for  Appendix VIII  organic  constituents.  A  majority of  the  staff
        members are college graduates and  the  senior staff members have several years
        of experience in trace organic analysis of environmental samples.  The labora-
        tory staff  has  spent a  considerable  amount  of time in developing  analytical
        techniques suitable  for the  characterization of Appendix VIII constituents.

LABORATQRY EQUIPMENT AND INSTRUMENTATION

The laboratory has several gas  chromatography  (GC)  instruments equipped with
detectors such as flame  ionization  (for the analysis of  solvents),  electron
capture (for  the  analysis  of  chlorinated  hydrocarbon pesticides  and herbi-
cides) and flame  photometric  (phosphorus mode  - for the  analysis  of organo-
phosphorus pesticides).  It has 17  gas  chromatography/mass  spectrometry (GC/
MS) instruments  (for the  analysis of  volatile and  semi-volatile  organics).
The laboratory has highly sophisticated computers to process the vast amounts
of data it produces  from various instruments.   The laboratory evaluation team
was highly  impressed  by the  laboratory's   sample  tracking,  analytical  data
processing and management systems.

ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY

The laboratory has  analyzed  several samples  for Appendix  VIII  constituents
using analytical   instruments  such as GC,  GC/MS and High Performance Liquid
Chromatography.  The laboratory standard operating  procedures  are based on EPA
methods manual, SW-846.   The  laboratory  is  in the process  of obtaining data on
method detection  limits and method performance  (precision and accuracy)  cri-
teria for the Appendix  VIII constituents.

QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL

The laboratory has a well documented quality assurance plan.  With  each batch
of samples  the  laboratory  analyzes, it  obtains  data   on  method  detection
limits and  on method  precision  and accuracy.   In addition,  the  laboratory
spikes samples that  require GC/MS analysis  with  surrogate spike  compounds to
monitor the matrix effects  and performance  of  analytical  systems.

The laboratory frequently participates  in  interlaboratory comparison studies
and in the system (on-site) evaluations conducted  by  several  program offices
such as EPA/EMSL-LY, and  the New York Department of Public Health.   The labor-
atory provided copies  of  the  interlaboratory   comparison study results  and
copies of the system evaluation reports  to  the  evaluation team at  the time of
on-site visit.   The  performance  and system  audit  results   are  acceptable.

    DATE:    September 10, 1986

 SUBJECT:    Fondessy Enterprises,   Inc.,   Oregon,  Ohio  -  System  Audit  Results
            of B.E.C. Laboratories, Toledo, Ohio

   FROM:    James H. Adams,  Jr., Chief
            Quality Assurance Office

     T0:    Alfons R. Winklhofer,  Chief
            Eastern District Office

            ATTENTION:   Joseph Fredle


  3n January 30, 1986,  Donald Booker and  Maxine Long,  Laboratory Evaluation Team,
  Quality Assurance Office,  Region  V  performed an on-site  evaluation  of the Bio-
  logical & Environmental Control  Laboratories,   (BEC),  Inc.,  Toledo,  Ohio pur-
  suant to RCRA Groundwater  Monitoring activities  for  Fondessy  site.

  The purpose of  the evaluation was to establish whether  or not  BEC's  standard
  operating procedures  produce  data  of acceptable quality.  BEC was  required  to
  analyze U.S. EPA Performance  Evaluation to demonstrate its analytical  capabil-
  ities.

  Based on the system audit, it was determined  that  BEC  had an  acceptable quality
  assurance/quality control  program  and  it produced  data  of acceptable  quality
  with the following exceptions (see Observations  and  Recommendation's).

  The evaluation  team  wishes  to thank  the laboratory  staff  for  their  courtesy
  and cooperation during the on-site evaluation.

  A list of  the parameters  analyzed for  and the  methods  used   by  the laboratory
  are provided as Attachment I.

  The following  are  the observations  that  were  made during  the  evaluation  and
  the recommendations of the  Quality  Assurance Office to  BEC to improve the data
  quality.

  INORGANIC ANALYSIS

       -  Observation:   The  intended use of the data  is not  known  which dictates
  the appropriate chain-of-custody  and necessary  level of  precision and  accuracy.

       -  Recommendation:   The  laboratory  should  know the  intended  use  for  the
  data so  that   the  appropriate  chain-of-custody  and  the  necessary  level   of
  precision and  accuracy  can  be accomplished.   If  the intended  use  of data  is
  privileged information, then  appropriate  chain-of-custody  and necessary level
  of precision and accuracy  should  be specified.

       -  Observation:   The   chain-of-custody  of  the  subject laboratory  does  not
  address all the concerns of proper chain-of-custody.
EPA FORM 13204 (REV. 3-76)

-------
                                     -2-


     -  Recommendation:   Sample  control  procedures are  necessary in  the  lab-
oratory from the time of  sample receipt to  the  time  the sample  is  discarded.
The custody log book  should  show the movement  of each sample within  the  lab-
oratory, i.e., who  removed,  when it was returned,  and when  it  was  destroyed.
Procedures must  be   established  for  audits  of  sample  control  information.
Records should be examined to determine traceability,  completeness,  and  accur-
acy.  For  the  purposes  of  litigation,  it   is  necessary  to  have an  accurate
written record  which can  be  used  to  trace the  possession  and handling  of
samples from the moment  of  collection through analysis.

     -  Observation:  There  is  no systematic approach  to  accepting or rejecting
a standard calibration curve  for metals  by  atomic absorption.

     -  Recommendation:   The  laboratory should  have   a  systematic  acceptance
criterion for  the linearity  of  the  standard calibration curve  for metals  by
atomic absorption.   The  correlation  coefficient  should be  calculated and docu-
mented after calibration.  The  correlation  coefficient should meet  a  specific
criterion (e.g.r >0.995).  The  laboratory  should establish  this  specific  cri-
terion based  on  their past  standard calibration  data.   A  copy  of this  data
and acceptance criterion should  be  forwarded to the Quality Assurance Office.

     -  Observation:  Results   of   performance   evaluation   study  WP  016  are
generally acceptable for most parameters.   Data  for arsenic  is biased low;  data
for COO  is  high  and  data  for  TOC  is  low.   A copy  of WP  106 is provided  as
Attachment II.

     -  Recommendations:   The laboratory should  review its  analytical  quality
assurance data to  determine the cause  of   the  unacceptable  results,  then  a
decision should be made whether  to  accept  or reject other  analytical  data  for
these parameters.

   DATE:   April  3, 1986

SUBJECT:   Fondessy Enterprises, Inc.,  Toledo, Ohio -  System Audit
          Results of Clow Corporation,  Pontiac,  Michigan

   FROM:   James  H. Adams, Jr., Chief
          Quality Assurance Office

     TO:   Alfons R. Winklhofer, Chief
          Eastern District Office

          ATTENTION:  Joseph Fredle

On February 21,  1986, Babu Paruchuri and Donald  Booker, Chemists, Quality
Assurance Office, Region V conducted an on-site  evaluation  of the Hydro
Research  Services (MRS) of the Water Management  Division, Clow Corporation,
Pontiac,  Michigan pursuant to RCRA Groundwater Monitoring activities for
Fondessy  site.

The purpose of the evaluation was to establish whether or not HRS's  standard
operating procedures produce data of acceptable  quality.  MRS was not required
to analyze U.S.  EPA Performance Evaluation samples to  demonstrate its analyt-
ical  capabilities.

The evaluation team has observed many  good aspects of  laboratory procedures.
The HRS personnel are well qualified to perform  trace  analyses of environ-
mental  samples for chemical contaminants and  they  maintain  the instruments  in
good  operating condition.  However, the laboratory has deficiencies  in docu-
mentation, particularly for methods and precision  and  accuracy.   In  order for
data  produced by the laboratory to be  fully acceptable, these deficiencies
should be addressed.  Details are provided in the  following recommendations.

The evaluation team wishes to thank the laboratory staff  for their courtesy
and cooperation  during the on-site evaluation.

The following are the observations that were  made  during the evaluation and
the recommendations of the Quality Assurance  Office to HRS  to improve the
data  quality:

ORGANIC ANALYSIS:

     -  Observation:  The Laboratory does not have a well documented standard
operating procedures manual.

-------
                                     -2-

        Recommendation:   The Laboratory analyzes complex matrices for various
pollutants using instruments such as gas chromatography/mass spectrometry
(GC/MS), gas chromatography equipped with flame ionization, Hall  Electrolytic
Conductivity, photoionization, electron capture detectors, etc.  But the Lab-
oratory does not have a  manual  that describes several  steps involved in trace
analysis of environmental  samples, such as sample preservation, extraction,
clean-up and analysis.  The Laboratory should document its organic procedures
in formats similar to EPA 600 methods series, if possible.

     -  Observation:   The gas chromatography analysis  results are not con-
firmed on a second GC column.

        Recommendation:   Whenever the Laboratory uses  GC instrument as the
primary analytical tool  for pollutant analysis, such as pesticides analysis,
it should support the analytical  results by providing  data obtained from a GC
column of different polarity.

     -  Observation:   The Laboratory does not determine accuracies of the
stock standard solutions.

        Recommendation:   As soon  as the Laboratory prepares fresh stock
standard solutions in-house, it should determine their accuracies by analyzing
standard solutions that  are traceable to a known source such as EPA.  Also,
the Laboratory should, periodically, determine the stability of the working
standard solutions.

     -  Observation:   The Laboratory does not provide  GC/MS data  on "tenta-
tive" identification  and estimation of concentrations  of unknown  peaks.

        Recommendation:   The Laboratory should, if resources permit, attempt
to provide "tentative" identification of unknown peaks in environmental
samples through mass  spectral library searches and estimate their concentra-
tions by comparing the peak areas to the nearest internal standard areas.

     -  Observation:   The Laboratory analyzes a variety of matrices for
organic pollutants but it  does  not have summary reports of performance accept-
ance criteria (precision,  accuracy and sensitivity)  for any of the analytical
methods.

        Recommendation:   The Laboratory should provide the method performance
criteria for each matrix-type and for each method.  The Laboratory should refer
to EPA Methods 608, 624  and 625 for guidance to establish the quality control
acceptance criteria for  the organic test procedures.

INORGANIC ANALYSIS

     -  Observation:   The intended use of the data is  not known which dic-
tates the appropriate chain-of-custody and necessary level of precision and
accuracy.

-------
                                     -3-
        Recommendation:   The Laboratory should know the intended use for the
data so that the appropriate chain-of-custody and the necessary level  of
precision and accuracy can be accomplished.  If the intended use of data is
privileged information,  then appropriate chain-of-custody and necessary level
of precision and accuracy should be specified.

     -  Observation:   The chain-of-custody of the subject Laboratory does not
address all the concerns of proper chain-of-custody.

        Recommendation:   Sample control procedures are necessary in the labor-
atory from the time of sample receipt to the time the sample is discarded.  The
custody log book should  show the movement of each sample within the laboratory,
i.e., who removed the sample from the custody area, when it was removed, when
it was returned, and  when it was destroyed.  Procedures must be established
for audits of sample  control information.  Records should be examined  to deter-
mine traceability, completeness, and accuracy.  For the purposes of litigation,
it is necessary to have  an accurate written record which can be used to trace
the possession and handling of  samples from the moment of collection through
analysis.

     -  Observation:   The procedures used for RCRA Groundwater Samples were
not thoroughly documented pursuant to the Fondessy site.

        Recommendation:   The Laboratory should document specifically the pro-
cedures used for RCRA Groundwater Samples because there are no regulatory pro-
cedures.

     -  Observation:   There is  no systematic approach to accepting  or rejecting
a standard calibration curve for metals by atomic absorption.

        Recommendation:   The Laboratory should have a systematic acceptance
criterion for the linearity of  the standard calibration curve for metals by
atomic absorption.  The  correlation coefficient should be calculated and docu-
mented after calibration.  The  correlation coefficient should meet  a specific
crtierion (e.g. r>0.995).  The  Laboratory should establish this specific cri-
terion based on their past standard calibration data.  A copy of this data
and acceptance criterion should be forwarded to the Quality Assurance  Office.

SUBJECT:   On-Site Evaluation of  Controls for Environmental  Pollution
          (CEP), Inc., Santa Fe,  New Mexico

   FROM:   James H.  Adams, Jr., Chief
          Quality Assurance Office

     TO:   William Harris, Chief
          Central District Office

          Attention:   Joseph Fredle


On April  22, 1986,  the Quality Assurance Office (QAO)  staff conducted an  on-
site evaluation of  Environmental  Pollution (CEP),  Inc., Santa Fe, New Mexico
pursuant  to the National  Groundwater Task  Force groundwater monitoring activ-
ities at  the Fondessey and Peoria Disposal facilities.   The purpose of this
evaluation was to evaluate the laboratory's facilities, personnel  equipment,
chain-of-custody, analytical  methodology,  recordkeeping, and quality  control
program for the measurement of gross alpha, gross  beta, Radium-226 and Radium-
228 in groundwater  samples from  the waste  disposal  facilities.

The QAO would like  to acknowledge the cooperation  and  courtesy  of the staff
of the CEP during the on-site evaluation.

The results of the  on-site evaluation are  described below.   Deficiencies  are
summarized by function and are to be considered present at  the  time of the on-
site evaluation and not  necessarily present at  this time.   The  QAO wishes to
to emphasize that because of it's nature,  this  report  highlights deficiencies
rather than the many  excellent things that were observed during the evalua-
tion.

FACILITY

The facility is divided  into the  main space categories  of Office,  shipping
and receiving, wet  chemistry laboratory and counting rooms.  Lighting, venti-
lation, bench space,  electrical  hoods,  etc. are adequate.   Building security
is adequate.  The facility has a  warning system in  place which  will detect
undesirable levels  of radioactivity in  the laboratory.

     Deficiency - None.

PERSONNEL

The laboratory staff  is  adequate  and competent  to  perform the gross alpha,
gross beta, radium-226 and radium-228 analysis  of  groundwater samples from
hazardous waste sites.

     Deficiency - None.

-------
                                     -2-

EQUIPMENT

The laboratory has adequate general equipment such as analytical balances, pH
meters, drying ovens, desiccators, hotplates, glassware furnaces and centri-
fuges for the preparation of groundwater samples for counting.  The equipment
was found to be satisfactory for sample preparation steps for which it was
used.  The laboratory uses gas flow proportional counting systems for the
measurement of gross alpha and gross beta activities, radium-226 and radium-
228.  The laboratory has 5 gas-flow proportional counting systems.  The sensi-
tivity of these systems meet the requirements of Section 141.25 of the National
Interim Primary Drinking Water Regulations.  All 5 counters were in good work-
i ng conditions.

     Deficiency - None.

CHAIN-OF-CUSTODY

Samples do not arrive at the laboratory under custody.  Custody is not
maintained for samples, since the 2 clients have not requested custody.

     Deficiency - N/A

ANALYTICAL METHODOLOGY

The laboratory has documented analytical methodology for gross alpha, gross
beta, radium-226 and radium 228.  Sample preparation protocol  is essentially
the same as depicted in Standard Methods (15 Edition) for gross alpha and
gross beta.  Sample preparation protocol is essentially the same as depicted
in EPA 600/4-80-032 for radium-226 and radium-228.  Written protocols were
being followed by the bench analyst.

     Deficiency - None.

RECORDKEEPING

The laboratory has a formal paper trail for each sample.  Log books are main-
tained at the receiving room, preparation bench and the counting instruments.
A final data file is maintained for each client.  The file for Peoria Disposal
was reviewed for traceability of paper trail.  The file was found to be com-
plete.  Fondessy had requested that the laboratory not make available their
files for review; therefore, no review for traceability of paper trail was
made.  Analyst do not initial bench sheets for loading and unloading counting
instruments, nor do they initial  bench sheets when recording activity counts.

     Deficiency - Analyst do not initial bench sheets in counting room.

-------
                                     -3-

QUALITY CONTROL PROGRAM

The laboratory has a documented QA plan.  A Quality Assurance Office is also
in place.  Quality control  records were also available for review.   The
laboratory participates in the EPA radiochemistry cross check and Performance
(Blind) sample program.  Results of last performance of record at time of the
on-site is listed in Table I.

     Deficiency - The laboratory had unacceptable performance for Radium-228
in the August 9, 1985 Performance Study.  The laboratory also had unacceptable
performance in the Radium-226 December 12, 1985 cross check study.

     This memo summarizes the evaluation of the quality control data generated
by the Hazardous Waste Ground Water Monitoring Task Force contract analytical
laboratories (1). This evaluation and subsequent conclusions pertain to the data
from the Fondessey Enterprises, Inc. Facility, Oregon, Ohio sampling effort by the
Hazardous Waste Ground Water Monitoring Task Force.

     The objective of this evaluation  is to give users of the analytical data a
more precise understanding of the limitations of the data as well as their appro-
priate use.  A second objective is to identify weaknesses in the data generation
process for correction.  This correction may act on future analyses at this  or other
sites.

     The evaluation was carried out on information provided  in the accompanying
quality control reports (2-4) which contain raw data, statistically transformed
data, and graphically transformed data.

     The evaluation process consisted  of three steps. Step one consists of  gener-
ation of a package which presents the  results of quality control procedures, includ-
ing the generation of data quality indicators, synopses of

statistical indicators, and the results of technical qualifier inspections.  A
report on the results of the performance evaluation standards analyzed by the
laboratory is also generated.  Step two is independent examination of the quality
control package and the performance evaluation sample results by members of the data
evaluation committee.  This was followed by a Committee meeting (teleconference) of
the Data Evaluation Committee  to discuss the foregoing data and data presentations.
These discussions were to come to a consensus concerning the appropriate use of the
data within  the context of  the GWMTF objectives.  The discussions are also to detect
and discuss specific or general inadequacies of the data and  to determine if these
are correctable or inherent in the analytical process.

Preface

     The data user should  review the pertinent  materials contained  in the accompany-
ing reports (2-4).  Questions generated in the interpretation of these  data relative
to sampling  and analysis should be  referred to Rich Steimle of the Hazardous Waste
Ground Water Monitoring Task  Force.

I.        Site Overview

     Fondessey Enterprises, Inc., located in Oregon, Ohio, is  a land disposal
facility.  The waste cells at the  facility which are presently permitted under
RCRA interim status cover approximately 100 to 120 acres.   The facility accepts
most types of non-flammable organic as well as  inorganic waste.  The State of
Ohio must approve all wastes before the facility may accept  them.  The geology
at the facility consists of several shallow clay layers under the site.  The facility
owners do not consider these to  contain the upper aquifer. The owners consider an
aquifer over 100 feet deep to be the true aquifer which they use for monitoring.
This sampling effort sampled monitoring wells in this deep aquifer as well as
monitoring wells around the facility which are in the clay layers in the first 100
feet.  Most of the samples collected were very turbid. There was no historical
indication of contamination in  any of the  wells.  The deep wells, into  the  100 foot
deep, artesian aquifer, were not expected by EPA to be contaminated due to positive,
upward pressure in the aquifer. Forty seven samples were collected at the facility
including 18 field blanks, one set of trip blanks, and one set  of equipment blanks.
Samples  were split with the facility owners.

II.        Evaluation of  Quality Control Data and Analytical Data

1.0       Metals

1.1        Performance Evaluation  Standards

     Seven elements (arsenic, barium, chromium, lead, selenium, vanadium, and
mercury) were in the metals performance evaluation standard.  The  laboratory ident-
ified all  but  one (chromium) of  these within the 95 percent confidence interval
limits. Chromium was identified as being  present at 34 ug/L when its "true' concen-
tration was 50 ug/L and  the 95 percent confidence interval was 36.7 to 60.6 ug/L.
Thus, the laboratory was close but outside  the confidence interval for  chromium.  The
overall laboratory performance on metals was judged to be acceptable.with a score of
90 out of 100 possible points. The "true" concentrations of the individual metals in
the PE sample ranged from 5.0  to 500 ug/L.

-------
1.2        petals QC Evaluation

     Nine of the 24 total metal average spike recoveries were within the data
quality objectives (DQO) for this program.  Barium, beryllium, calcium, magnesium,
manganese, potassium, selenium, sodium, tin, and zinc spike average percent recov-
eries were high and above the DQO, ranging from  111 to 120 percent.  Total arsenic,
chromium, lead, silver, and thallium all had slightly low, and below DQO, average
percent recoveries ranging from 56  to 87 percent. Fifteen of 20 metals were within
the DQO for dissolved metals.  Manganese,  sodium, and vanadium were all  above the
dissolved metals DQO with recoveries ranging from 112 to 113 percent while antimony
and tin were below  the DQO with average  percent recoveries of 81 and 47  percent,
respectively.  No spike sample recoveries were reported for dissolved arsenic, lead,
selenium, or thallium.  The average relative percent difference (RPD) for total  tin
was the only total or dissolved  average RPD outside the DQO. No blank contamination
above the contract required  detection limit (CRDL) was reported for laboratory
blanks.  Trip, equipment, and field  blanks show  contamination involving a  variety of
total and dissolved metals.  Required analyses were performed on all metals samples
submitted to the laboratory. Reported detection limits (DL) are CRDL or lower for
all metal parameters except  total and dissolved mercury in several samples.  The  -
reported DL exceeded the CRDL for total mercury in samples MQ0404, 407, 410, 412,
420, 422, 423, 426, 433, and 437 and for dissolved mercury in samples MQ0408,  409,
423, and 424 by factors of two to five.

1.3       Furnace Metals

     The  metals analysis lab was asked to recalculate their graphite furnace metals
results but the recalculated data was not received in time to be incorporated into
the data review reports.  The recalculated data will probably  be based upon a two
point standard addition which  may result in variability of the data and may result in
an increased percent recovery for some elements. A cursory review of the recal-
culated data indicated no significant trends, i.e. some values increased while others
decreased.

     The aluminum concentration in samples MQ0420, 423, 433, 435, 436, and 437
was high (above JO  10,20 mg/L).  This would  be  expected to result in signal enhance-
ment and  false positives for arsenic and thus arsenic data for those samples is
biased high  and suspect  Although  Zeeman background correction will be used  to
prevent this problem in later cases,  these samples could be reanalyzed in Phase  3
without resampling.  High iron (above approximately 1 mg/L) in various samples will
cause a suppression  of selenium signal (negative bias). Chloride concentrations
above 200lng/L in samples MQ0407, 409, 422, 440, and 441 can cause  interferences with
graphite furnace results and would  be expected to bias the results low. The selenium
results for sample MQ0421 should have been rerun by the method of standard addition
(MSA) but were not, rendering  the selenium result questionable for this sample.

     A procedural problem exists with the  graphite furnace metals data.  The labora-
tory recalibrated their instrument prior to the analysis of the continuing  calibra-
tion blank and  continuing calibration verification.  This obscured any drift in
instrument calibration  which occurred  during  the analysis of samples  run before the
calibration.  This practice is not permitted.  This procedure reduces  the quanti-
tative value  pf the data as the reference samples have an unknown correlation with
the actual field samples and they will no longer  show changes in calibration with
time.

-------
     Spike recoveries for total arsenic, lead, and thallium were low while recovery
for selenium was high. Overall, the graphite furnace analytical results can be
considered acceptable for total metals. The arsenic and lead data should be consi-
dered semiquantitajive except for the samples (MQ0420, 423, 433, 435, 436, and 437)
with high aluminum causing interferences of arsenic. The resulting arsenic data from
these samples should be considered to be biased very high and questionable. The
thallium and selenium (with exceptions listed below) data as well as the lead data
from sample MQ04IO should be considered qualitative. The selenium results from
sample MQ0421 (which, as previously mentioned, should have been run by MSA) should be
considered questionable as insufficient data are available to adequately assess  them.
The dissolved metals data (which are not generally  being used by the GWMTF) should
all be considered qualitative.

1.4       ICP Metals

     The data from samples with high dissolved salt concentrations (MQ0410,  423, 435,
436, 440, and 441 and possibly MQ0401 and others with lower dissolved salt concentra-
tions) indicate unacceptable serial dilution results which are an indication of
possible physical interferences affecting  the ICP spectrometer.  The chromium and  tin
results were outside control  limits on various spike  samples.  Sample MQ042S had
eleven spike elements above the control limits which appear to indicate a consistent
error.  This may be a problem with dilution of the  predisgestion spiking solution.
Data from sample  MQ042S should be considered qualitative. In some samples calcium,
magnesium, and sodium were present at high enough concentrations to cause signal
suppression in the ICP.  The results of the analyses of these samples are expected to
be biased low.  High sulfate was present in some samples (MQ0404, 412, 415, 426, 427,
428, 430, 431, 432, 435, 436,  440, and 441) which would be expected to  bias the
barium results slightly low.  ICP analysis of the PE sample yielded acceptable
results for barium, vanadium, and mercury but unacceptable results for chromium. All
sample results for chromium and tin  and medium concentration water  samples of
silver should be considered qualitative.  Aluminum, antimony, silver (low concentra-
tion), and vanadium data should be  considered semiquantitative.  Data for all other
elements, with certain exceptions (see above discussion and reference 4), should be
considered quantitative.

2.0        tndicajor Parameters

2.1        Performance Evaluation Standard

     The laboratory encountered problems with six of the 10 indicator parameters.
The sample vial for sulfate  and chloride was lost and thus not analyzed.  The  lab
results were high and out of the 95 percent confidence interval for ammonia nitrogen,
nitrate nitrogen, and POX.  The results were low and out of the 95 percent confidence
range for TOC.  None of the above mentioned results were especially close to  the 95
percent confidence range. The laboratory  did acceptably on TOC, TOX, POC, and POX.
The laboratory received a score of 48 out of  100 possible points.

2.2        Indicator Parameter OC Evaluation

     For the indicator parameters, the average percent recoveries were within
the  DQO's except  for total phenols (44%) and cyanide (35%) which were outside
their respective  DQO's. This indicates generally good recoveries of these analytes
except for total  phenols (poor) and cyanide (slightly low). Seven individual sample
recoveries for these two parameters were also outside the accuracy DQO signifying
poor recovery for  total phenols  and slightly low recovery for cyanide.  Laboratory
control standard recoveries reported for  all indicator parameters were  within program

-------
DQO's.  Average relative percent differences for all parameters were within program
DQO's.  All analyses were performed as requested except POX in sample MQ0411, POC in
sample MQ0439, TOX in sample MQ0440, sulfate and chloride in samples MQ0768 and 769
(the previously mentioned PE sample as well as the trip blank), and  ammonia  nitrogen,
nitrate nitrogen, and total phenol in sample MQ0769 (the trip blank). No laboratory
blank contamination was reported for any inorganic or indicator parameter except the
POC analyses.  In all samples, initial  and  continuing calibration blanks contained
POC at  levels greater than CRDL.  All reported detection limits are  CRDL or  lower
except for the POC analyses of all samples except MQ0768 (DL an order of magnitude
above CRDL),

2.3        Inorganic and Indicator Parameter Data

     Data from the facility  indicate  the presence of significant levels of TOC
but generally no organics (of the type measured by the test procedures).  High
levels of chloride (samples MQ0407, 409, 440, and 441) which  may cause  interferences
in the detection of TOX, thus data for TOX may be biased high.

     The indicator  parameter data, except for  TOC, corroborate the general lack
of organics found in the field samples. Medium to high levels of TOC were found in
almost all samples which probably indicates the presence of organics other  than those
that the Task Force is measuring or detecting in its analyses.

     The inorganic and indicator parameter data should be considered acceptable
and quantitative for nitrate  nitrogen (except samples MQ0407, 412, 422, and 440
which should be considered  qualitative due to  the presence of high levels of iron
which could bias the results  high), chloride, and TOX (except samples MQ0407, 409,
440, and 441  which had high chloride), semiquantitativej'or cyanide, POC, and  POX
(poor PE quantitation),and qualitative for ammonia nitrogen (poor PE quantitation),
total phenol (poor spike recovery), sulfate (poor spike recoveries), and TOC (poor PE
quantitation).                         "                          ~~    '

3.0       Organics and Pesticides

3.1       Performance Evaluation  Standard

     Twenty eight compounds were included in the organics PE sample.  The  lab
did acceptably on all six of  the volatiles (chloroform, bromodichloromethane,
dibromochloromethane, bromoform, toluene, and chlorobenzene). Concentrations
of volatiles in the  PE sample ranged  from 50.0 to 100 ug/L. No false positives
were  reported.  The laboratory failed to detect, within the 95 percent confidence
interval, three of the ten semivoiatiles in the PE sample although one of these, 2-
methylphenol, was detected  within the program DQO (but  outside 95 percent acceptance
interval). For two others from the list of ten semivolatiles a 95 percent confidence
interval has not yet been established.  The "true" concentrations of the semi-
volatiles in the PE sample ranged  from 50.0 to 500 ug/L. The laboratory did  not
detect any of the seven pesticides, two herbicides, or  two dioxins and a dibenzofuran
which were present in  the PE samples. This problem has been attributed the manner  in
which the PE sample bottles were prepared and shipped to the laboratory and to the
manner in which  the laboratory sampled them.  For the organics, the laboratory
received a score of  42.6 out of 100 possible points.

-------
3.2        Organic OC Eviluttloa

     All organic parameters were within program DQO for accuracy and for precision
(except for 2,4-D, 2,4,5-T, the dioxins, and various surrogates where DQO's have not
yet  been established) for both matrix spikes and surrogates except for 2-fluoro-
biphenyl (samples Q0434 and 442) and 2-fluorophenol (samples Q0407 and 434) which are
below percent recovery DQO.  Blanks, generally, were free of contamination although
acetone  was reported in one instrument  blank at 19 ug/L (this blank was not
associated with any samples). All organic analyses were performed as requested.  All
detection limits were CRDL or  lower except for the semivolatiles which  were all
reported at two times CRDL. Dioxin analyses were performed on 33 of the samples,
including all blanks. The percent recovery for dioxin spikes ranged from SO to 119
percent  but no dioxin target compounds were found in any samples. No  contamination
was reported in any of the dioxin blanks. Overall, the QC data looks very good and
is acceptable.

3.3        Volatile

     Recoveries on several of the matrix spikes are a  bit higher than usual but
still acceptable.  This may be due to a spiking problem.  Internal  and external
quality control data indicate that volatile organics are run acceptably.  The
chromatograms appear acceptable. The surrogates are acceptable.  Few voiatiles
were detected in the actual samples (which is consistent with POC and POX results).
Acetone, methyiene chloride, and 2-butanone were detected in  addition to the spiked
compounds in the PE sample. This  raises questions about sample  contamination and
makes positive results pertaining to these compounds (samples Q04.40 and 441.contained  t
2-butanone) unreliable.  Additionally, methyiene chloride,1 acetone', chloroform, and
carbon tetrachloride found in the^E blank should be considered  contamination.
Overall,  the voiatiles data are acceptable,  the probability of false negative
results are low.  The volatile compound  results should be considered quantitative
with achievable CRDL's.

3.4        Base/Neutrals and Acids

     Although recoveries are low on the base/neutrals and acids, the data are
acceptable from a quality control view point.  Matrix  spikes and surrogates are
acceptable although the relative percent difference (RPD) for  pentachlorophenol
was outside DQO in  the matrix spike/matrix spike duplicate for sample Q0425.
All surrogate spikes in samples  Q0440 and 441 (leachate samples) were out of DQO due
to dilutions.  The chromatographic quality is acceptable. Very few base/neutrals and
phenols were found in the samples from this facility.  Overall, the acids  and
base/neutral  data are acceptable  and should be considered semiquantitative for the
base/neutrals and qualitative for'the acids, (due to predictably low recoveries"on
phenols). Detection limits were  twice CRDL on the semivolatiles because the labora-
tory did not completely concentrate the samples to the required volume.

3.5        Pesticides and Herbicides

     Other than the previously mentioned problem with the detection of pesticides and
herbicides in the PE sample, there were few obvious laboratory analytical problems
with the pesticides or herbicides  other than poor surrogate recoveries for the
herbicides. The chromatographic quality for both pesticides and  herbicides look
clean and acceptable. The lab standards results are generally acceptable  with the
exception of  the herbicide surrogates. The internal spike and matrix spike data are
within acceptable limits. Dilutions/concentrations appear to be properly  performed.
The duplicate precision and the  average percent recovery for the matrix  spike

-------
compounds in the ground water samples are acceptable. The surrogate percent
recoveries were outside DQO for  pesticides in leachate samples Q0440 and 441 and for
herbicides in samples Q0415, 424, 434, 440, 441, and 768 as well as blank *74733.
The required detection limits were achieved. DDT (sample Q0422) and  an aroclor
(PCB mixture, sample Q0432) were each detected  in a single well sample at this
facility and these positive results are considered to be reliable.  The pesticides
data, or lack of it, should be considered usable with a  low probability of false
negatives. The herbicides, and to a lesser extent the pesticides, data quality
should be considered unknown due to insufficient information to properly assess the
data quality. This data should not, however, be considered unusable.

3.6        Dloxlns and Dibenzofurans

     Recoveries of the dioxins from the PE sample by the referee laboratories
(and in the past by the organics lab) appear to be  low (IS to  30 percent).
Recoveries of dioxin spikes  by the organics laboratory, however, appear to  be
quantitative (80 to  119 percent).   A significant problem, possibly adsorption
of the  dioxins and dibenzofurans to the walls of  the sample bottle, is affecting
(diminishing) the concentration of the dioxins in  the PE sample and probably, if any
dioxins are present, in the field samples.  As no dioxins or dibenzof urans were
detected in the field samples, this problem increases the probability, if the
compounds were initially present  in the environmental samples, of false negatives for
these compounds. Based upon data from past facilities, the detection limits for the
dioxins, in  field samples, should be considered to be approximately 500 ppt and it is
probable that no dioxins were present above this level in the samples from this
facility.  The dioxins data should be considered unreliable.
