EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 6 (EPA) has conducted the Fifth Five-Year
Review (FYR) of the remedial action (RA) implemented at the South Valley Superfund Site
(Site) in Bernalillo County, New Mexico. The purpose of this Fifth FYR was to determine
whether the selected remedies for the Site continue to protect human health and the environment.
The Site involves two potentially responsible parties (PRPs), Univar USA, Inc. (Univar) and
General Electric Aviation (GEA). This FYR covers the last five year period starting from the
Fourth FYR which was signed on August 27, 2010.
This FYR for the Site was performed through a review of: the Record of Decisions (RODs),
Explanation of Significant Differences (ESDs); other historic site documents; site inspections
performed on January 27, 2015 at GEA facilities and on January 28, 2015 at Univar; interviews
with stakeholders; and a review of data collected at the Site during the previous review periods
for GEA and Univar, respectively.
The South Valley Site includes two source facilities, GEA where manufacturing occurred and
Univar which was used for various industrial and commercial purposes, and is composed of six
operable units (OUs):
• OU 01 - The Record of Decision (ROD) was signed on March 22, 1985, with no
identified PRP, and consists of the City of Albuquerque San Jose 6 (SJ-6) and San Jose 3
(SJ-3) wells; these wells were contaminated with volatile organic compounds (VOC)s.
The remedial action objective was to eliminate the threat to human health posed by
introducing water from this well into City of Albuquerque drinking water supply. The
RA objective was achieved by replacing wells SJ-6 and SJ-3 with the Burton #4 well
completed in April 1987.
• OU 02 - The ROD was signed on September 30, 1988 for which GEA is the PRP, with a
remedial goal of eliminating conduit(s) for contaminant migration from the shallow to
intermediate aquifers. The RA was implemented by plugging SJ-6 and SJ-3 and any
shallow wells, restricting ground water use and implementing ground water monitoring.
Ground water monitoring continues today as part of the overall monitoring program
implemented by GEA.
• OU 03 - The ROD was signed on June 28, 1988. Univar is the PRP. The remedial
objective included reducing the concentrations in ground water of site-related VOCs to
acceptable levels (aquifer restoration) via a pump-treat-injection system. A ground water
recovery system was initiated in April 1992 and a vapor recovery system was initiated in
November 1999. The ground water recovery and vapor recovery systems were both shut
off in November 2006. Subsequent monitoring has shown that the ground water and
vapor extraction systems reduced the dissolved chlorinated VOC concentrations to levels
below and compliant with Applicable or Relevant and Appropriate Requirements
(ARARs) as defined in the ROD. On June 10, 2014, EPA acknowledged that Univar
completed all requirements of the Consent Decree dated March 27, 1990 as they relate to
the constituents of concern (COC) in ground water identified in the ROD and the
subsequent Explanation of Significant Differences dated September 26, 2006, with the
exception of 1,4-dioxane. EPA acknowledged that Univar is addressing 1,4-dioxane in
ground water at OU 03 pursuant to Section XVI(D) of the above Consent Decree.

-------
EPA approved Univar's recommended actions regarding further investigation of 1,4-
dioxane as a COC. Univar submitted a Human Health Risk Evaluation (HHRE) that
evaluated potential human health risks and defined site-specific, risk-based cleanup goals.
In addition to continually monitoring ground water, Univar further evaluated the
monitoring well network and submitted a work plan for installation of additional
monitoring wells that will aid in the lateral delineation of the existing 1,4-dioxane
impacted ground water and monitor the potential migration of 1,4-dioxane. Potential
remedial actions will be assessed following the installation and sampling of the new
monitoring wells.
• OU 04 - The ROD was signed on June 28, 1988. Univar is the PRP. Edmunds Street
Source Control consists of the vadose zone at the Univar facility. Univar was to
investigate the soil around a pit on their property in an effort to establish the source of the
solvents under their plant. The investigation found no evidence in the vadose zone that a
release occurred at this location. The ROD specified No Further Action.
• OU 05 - The ROD was signed on September 30, 1988. GEA is the PRP for this OU.
The GEA Shallow Zone consists of the unsaturated and saturated portion of the shallow
zone aquifer at the GEA facility. The RA goal for this OU is remediating shallow zone
ground water and eliminating source materials via enhanced dewatering, soil flushing,
and soil vapor extraction. GEA initiated shallow ground water recovery systems on both
the North Plant 83 and South Plant 83 Areas. Both ground water recovery systems
operations began in May 1994. The ground water treatment system at this OU was
completely shut down in July 2010. Compliance ground water monitoring was
completed and GEA on September 22, 2014 requested closure of the OU 05 ROD stating
that they have satisfactorily completed all requirements of the Administrative Order dated
July 3, 1989. All wells and infrastructure associated with the OU 05 ground water
treatment system have been plugged and abandoned or removed as approved by EPA.
• OU 06 - The ROD was signed on September 30, 1988. GEA is the PRP for this OU.
GEA Deep Zone, consists of the deep aquifer at the GEA facility. The remedial action
objective of this OU is hydraulically containing the plume in order to protect the City of
Albuquerque's water supply wells and reduce the concentrations of site-related VOCs in
ground water to acceptable levels (aquifer restoration). The ground water remediation
system at this OU began operation in March 1996. RA activities has hydraulically
contained the plume and shrunk it significantly from its former volume and mass. A
pumping and injection regimen is being manipulated (including additional remediation
wells) to address residual contaminants in the remaining plume.
Of the six OUs, the RA is considered complete at OU 01 and OU 05; in addition, the ROD for
OU 04 required no further action. The RA is considered complete for OU 03 for VOCs with the
exception of 1,4-dioxane.
Issues noted during this FYR include: 1) A remedial action plan (RAP) should be prepared for
1,4-dioxane at OU 03. The exact date of the plan submittal will be set at a later time and will be
dependent upon completion of monitoring well installations and ground water monitoring; 2)
Evaluate the presence of 1,1-Dichloroethane (DCA) in sentinel monitoring well P83-19U since
2012 at OU 06 and determine if additional RA is necessary; and 3) Determine if OU 02 remedial

-------
requirements have been achieved or define the monitoring well network and sample frequency
for that network of wells associated with OU-02.
Based on the information available during the Fifth FYR, the following determinations were
made for the selected remedies for the OUs at the South Valley Superfund Site:
• OU 01 - The remedy is protective of human health and the environment.
• OU 02 - The remedy is protective of human health and the environment.
• OU 03 - The remedy currently protects human health and the environment
because the remedy consisting of ground water recovery and treatment
functioned as designed. However, in order for the remedy to be protective in
the long-term, the presence of 1,4-dioxane in ground water should be further
delineated and a remedial action plan should be prepared and implemented.
• OU 04 - The remedy is protective of human health and the environment.
• OU 05 - The remedy is protective of human health and the environment.
• OU 06 - The remedy currently protects human health and the environment
because the remedy consisting of water recovery and treatment is functioning
as designed. However, the recent detections of 1,1-DCA in sentinel well P83-
19U should be evaluated and a determination should be made as to whether
additional RA is necessary. Once all remedial action goals have been
achieved, a long term protectiveness determination can be made.
The remedial actions at OU 01, OU 02, OU 04, and OU 05 are protective. The remedial actions
at OU 03 and OU 06 are protective in the short-term. However, for OU 03 and OU 06, the
recommendations and follow-up actions identified in this FYR process should be addressed to
ensure the long-term remedy will remain protective of human health and the environment.
Government Performance and Results Act Measures Review
As part of this FYR, the Government Performance and Results Act Measures have also been
reviewed. The measures and their status are as follows:
Environmental Indicators
Human Health: Human Exposure (HE) is under control.
Groundwater Migration: Contaminated Groundwater Migration (GM) is under control.
Sitewide Ready for Anticipated Use
The Site has not achieved Sitewide Ready for Anticipated Use status.

I. Introduction
The purpose of a Five-Year Review (FYR) is to evaluate the implementation and performance of a
remedy in order to determine if the remedy will continue to be protective of human health and the
environment. The methods, findings, and conclusions of reviews are documented in five-year
review reports. In addition, FYR reports identify issues found during the review, if any, and
document recommendations to address them.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prepares FYRs pursuant to the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) Section 121 and the
National Contingency Plan (NCP). CERCLA 121 states:
"If the President selects a remedial action that results in any hazardous substances,
pollutants, or contaminants remaining at the site, the President shall review such remedial
action no less often than each five years after the initiation of such remedial action to assure
that human health and the environment are being protected by the remedial action being
implemented. In addition, if upon such review it is the judgment of the President that action
is appropriate at such site in accordance with section [104] or [106], the President shall
take or require such action. The President shall report to the Congress a list offacilities for
which such review is required, the results of all such reviews, and any actions taken as a
result of such reviews. "
EPA interpreted this requirement further in the NCP; 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section
300.430(f)(4)(ii), which states:
"If a remedial action is selected that results in hazardous substances, pollutants, or
contaminants remaining at the site above levels that allow for unlimited use and unrestricted
exposure, the lead agency shall review such actions no less often than every five years after
the initiation of the selected remedial action."
EPA conducted a FYR on the remedies implemented at the South Valley Superfund Site in
Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico. EPA is the lead agency for oversight of
development and implementation of the remedy for the Site. The New Mexico Environment
Department (NMED), as the support agency representing the State of New Mexico, has reviewed all
supporting documentation and provided input to EPA during the FYR process.
This is the Fifth FYR for the South Valley Superfund Site. The triggering action for this statutory
review is the completion date of the previous FYR. The FYR is required due to the fact that
hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants remain at the site above levels that allow for
unlimited use and unrestricted exposure. The Site consists of six Operable Units, all of which are
addressed in this FYR.

The following sections describe the actions taken during this FYR period based on the
recommendations from the previous FYR.
Recommendation 1
1,4-Dioxane-
In November 2009, EPA notified Univar that they would be required to sample for 1,4-dioxane, a
probable human carcinogen, as part of the ground water monitoring program pursuant to Section
XVI(D) of the Univar Consent Decree. Univar was to evaluate the occurrence of 1,4-dioxane and
determine if it poses a threat to human health and the environment. EPA anticipated a response to
this requirement to include a plan and corresponding schedule to perform the evaluation and make
recommendations for further action.
On January 7, 2010, on behalf of Univar, ARCADIS responded to EPA's request for sampling wells
for 1,4-dioxane, proposing to sample 24 wells (GM-2, GM-4, GM-9D, GM-9S, GM-10, GM-1 ID,
GM-11S, GM-13, GM-14D, GM-14S, GM-15D, GM-15S, GM-17D, GM-17S, GM-19, GM- 20,
GM-21, GM-22R, GM-25, GM-26, GM-27, GM-28, A-l, and 1-4). The analytical results would be
evaluated and a site conceptual model would be developed. An assessment of risk would be

-------
conducted and then recommended actions would be developed and presented to EPA.
ARCADIS on behalf of Univar continued to sample ground water quarterly from designated wells
for 1,4-dioxane. During a conference call on May 4, 2010 between Univar and the EPA, Univar
proposed to continue with quarterly ground water sampling for 1,4-dioxane from designated wells
listed above. EPA on July 14, 2011 issued a letter to Univar requesting an evaluation of the
adequacy of the current ground water monitoring network to determine the extent of 1,4-dioxane.
On October 4, 2011 ARCADIS on behalf of Univar responded to EPA letters for recommended
actions regarding 1,4-dioxane and presented a site conceptual model and proposed activities and
schedule. A short duration (eight hour) pump test to test the validity of the conceptual model and
assess if 1,4-dioxane is present in more than a low-mass residual state would be conducted on three
monitoring wells (GM-13, GM-11S, and GM-21), all with elevated 1,4-dioxane concentrations.
The short duration pump test was conducted in February, 2012. ARCADIS on behalf of Univar on
May 29, 2012 submitted a pump test report to EPA which stated the overall test was successful but
not conclusive and that an extended duration pump test is recommended. On May 31, 2012,
ARCADIS on behalf of Univar submitted a work plan for an extended pump test and treatment pilot
study. ARCADIS on behalf of Univar conducted the extended pump test and treatment pilot study
from August, 2012 through November, 2012. On June 24, 2013 ARCADIS on behalf of Univar
submitted the Extended Ground Water Pump Test Report. The results of the extended pump test
confirmed the conceptual model and demonstrated that the advanced oxidation treatment system is
sufficient to reduce 1,4-dioxane concentrations in ground water to less than 1 |ig/L. In addition, the
extended pump test showed that one 55-gallon drum of granulated activated charcoal can also
effectively treat between nine and 10 thousand gallons of water at this Site.
Recommendation 2
The PMCPs (2008, 2014) for the deep zone OU 06 requires annual sampling of ground water and
analysis for EDB using EPA method 504.1 with a reporting limit of 0.04 (J,g/L.
Recommendation 3
While MTBE was reported at a concentration of 86 |ig/L for the sample collected from monitoring
well P83-28S during the semiannual sampling in November, 2009, the previous analytical result for
a sample collected in April, 2008 was 11 |ig/L and the next semiannual analytical result for the
sample collected April, 2010 was 13 |ig/L. After 2010, monitoring well P83-28S is no longer
sampled for water quality. As the MTBE cleanup goal is 100 |ig/L, no further action has been
taken.
Recommendation 4
In response to Issue and Recommendation 4 of the Fourth FYR for the Site, GEA requested
Axis Group Inc. (Axis) evaluate all relevant data to determine if capture was in effect at the
4,500 - 4,600 feet above mean sea level depth horizon within the deep zone aquifer. Based on
the evaluations described in the following sections, ground water quality, level, and flow model
data indicates that TCE and 1,1 -DCE are contained and remediated in the interval within the
4,500 -4,600 feet above mean sea level depth horizon.
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico 7 August 17,2010 thru August 26, 2015

-------
Additional Ground Water Quality Data
The WB-02(4) sampling point is the only sampling point in the area of the aquifer where ground
water analytical results for VOCs are above ARARs . Analytical results for samples collected from
sampling points deeper and further down gradient have not reported VOCs above ARARs.
Since the November 2009 data, reviewed for the fourth FYR, two additional sampling events have
been conducted in accordance with the PCMP. Analytical results from samples collected from WB-
02(4) have been plotted on a VOC concentration versus time graph (see Appendix E in the 2010
Annual Report for the Deep Zone Ground water Remediation System). Ground water quality data
from October 2006 through October 2010 for WB-02(4) shows an increase in both TCE and 1,1-
DCE concentrations through the November 2009 time frame and a decline in concentrations since
November 2009. GEA and Axis will continue to collect samples for VOC analysis from this
monitoring well port to determine longer term trends.
Ground water Level Data
During each sampling event, ground water levels are collected from the wells associated with the
deep zone ground water remediation system in accordance with the PCMP. This data is used to
determine capture zones of extraction wells and indicates capture of ground water with VOC
contamination is occurring in the area of WB-02(4). This data is available and shown on Figures 4
through 8 of the 2010 Annual Report for the Deep Zone Ground water Remediation System.
Updated Ground water Flow Model
To further assess capture of ground water with VOCs in the deep zone aquifer, Axis updated the
ground water flow model used to design and evaluate ongoing capture of impacted ground water in
the deep zone aquifer. Prior to the model update during this FYR period, the ground water flow
model was most recently used in 2007 and 2008 to design the location and flow rates for the
replacement injection wells IW-637R and IW-638R and extraction well EW-003R.
When current extraction and injection flow rates were modeled, capture of VOC impacted ground
water is demonstrated including the VOCs in ground water in the area of WB-02(4). In addition,
there are a sufficient number of monitoring points beneath and down gradient of WB-02(4) to
indicate that VOC impacted ground water is isolated. Accordingly, GEA is not recommending
significant changes in operation or monitoring.
An EPA letter dated March 23, 2011 stated that EPA and NMED do not have any further comments
concerning the 1,1-DCE and TCE issue and therefore acknowledge that GEA has addressed all
recommendations pertaining to GE as described in the Fourth Five Year Review. GEA and Axis
will continue to review data as it becomes available to evaluate if the remedy continues to meet the
requirements of the ROD.
Recommendation 5
On January 31, 2013 EPA held a public meeting at the Hispanic Cultural Center located in the
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico 8 August 17, 2010 thru August 26, 2015

-------
South Valley which provided GEA and Univar representatives an opportunity to update the public
on remedial activities and accomplishments. The public was provided an opportunity to ask EPA
along with the PRPs questions and express their concerns. In conjunction with the public meeting,
EPA developed and issued in January, 2013 a Site Status Update that provided the public with
current Site activities and accomplishments for all six Operable Units. In December, 2014 EPA
issued an updated South Valley Superfund Site fact sheet that provided an update of all activities
and contacts.
Remedy Implementation Activities
OU 03
ARCADIS on behalf of Univar on November 14, 2011 submitted a draft Human Health Risk
Evaluation (HHRE) for 1,4-dioxane in ground water. The assessment was preliminary and only
took into consideration site workers. ARCADIS, on behalf of Univar, on October 18, 2013
resubmitted a draft HHRE. The main purpose of the risk evaluation was to define a site-specific,
risk-based cleanup goal and develop site closure options. Univar received comments from EPA in a
letter dated November 12, 2013 regarding review of the draft HHRE. Additionally, conference calls
were held to discuss the comments on November 25 and 26, 2013 and a discussion on a path
forward on December 12, 2013. ARCADIS, on behalf of Univar, submitted the following schedule
for EPA approval as requested during the December 12, 2013 call:
• Univar will revise the HHRE report to address the comments and resubmit to EPA and the
NMED on January 17, 2014.
• Univar will prepare a work plan for additional monitoring well installation and ground water
sampling and submit to EPA on January 24, 2014.
• A remedial action plan will be prepared sometime during the second quarter of 2014. The
exact date of the plan submittal will be set at a later time and will be dependent upon
completion of well installations and ground water monitoring.
On January 17, 2014, ARCADIS, on behalf of Univar, submitted to EPA a Revised HHRE. A letter
from EPA to Univar on March 18, 2014 approved the Revised HHRE.
ARCADIS, on behalf of Univar, submitted a monitoring well drilling and installation and ground
water monitoring work plan on January 24, 2014. The two proposed monitoring wells are intended
to aid in the lateral delineation of the existing 1,4-dioxane to address EPA's concern regarding
extent of contamination. Following comments and discussion with EPA, ARCADIS submitted a
revised monitoring well installation work plan on April 17, 2014. EPA, in a letter to Univar,
approved the revised work plan on April 23, 2014. ARCADIS, on behalf of Univar, has been in the
process of obtaining access to the property where the two monitoring wells will be installed. Direct
access is blocked by third party landowners and to date no agreement to allow access has been
granted. Univar is currently working with the New Mexico Department of Transportation
(NMDOT) to obtain temporary access from Interstate 25.
On December 5, 2007, approximately one year after the pilot test program for optimization had been
implemented, discussions regarding the optimization plan took place between EPA, Univar, and
ARCADIS. The meeting resulted in the revision of RAs for Univar which were approved by EPA
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico 9 August 17, 2010 thru August 26, 2015
051307
-------
and NMED on January 30, 2008. The revisions consisted of keeping the remedial system turned
off; perform semiannual (April and October) depth to ground water measurements in all site wells
and ground water samples would be collected from monitoring wells GM-02, 1 IS, 13, 21, and 27.
The samples were submitted for analysis for VOCs. If the concentrations in these monitoring wells
fell below the ARARs during the semiannual sampling, the sampling frequency would be increased
to quarterly - to meet the NMED requirement for completion of abatement. If the concentrations
are still below the ARARs after eight consecutive quarterly events, EPA and NMED would close
out the OU 03 per the ROD.
In a letter to EPA, June 2, 2014, Univar submitted a Notice of Completion of Consent Decree
Requirements for COCs for the Edmund Street Ground Water Operable Unit 03 of the South Valley
Superfund Site. ARCADIS on behalf of Univar completed quarterly compliance monitoring for
COCs (VOCs) in November, 2013. With the exception of 1,4-dioxane, Univar has satisfactorily
completed all of the requirements of the Consent Decree dated March 27, 1990 as they pertain to the
COCs in ground water identified in the ROD signed on June 28, 1988 in that the concentrations of
COCs are less than the clean-up levels that were specified in the ROD and subsequent Explanation
of Significant Differences (September 2006). The concentrations of COCs (not including 1,4-
dioxane) were less than the clean-up goals for at least eight consecutive sampling events before
sampling was discontinued Per Section VII, Paragraph B, Subsection 23 of the Consent Decree.
Univar requested that the EPA certify in writing the satisfactory completion of all of the
requirements of the Consent Decree as they pertain to the COCs, with the exception of 1,4-dioxane.
An EPA letter to Univar on June 10, 2014 approved the Notice of Completion.
OU 05
North Plant 83 Partial Closure
On November 10, 2009, on behalf of GEA, Axis requested authorization to implement the Closure
Plan submitted in the letter dated October 8, 2009 in which GEA would close the North Plant 83.
This request was based on sampling results for wells in the shallow zone. Representatives from
EPA and NMED met with GEA on January 27, 2010 to discuss only the closure for the off-site area
of the North Plant 83 shallow zone. EPA and NMED approved the closure of wells and conveyance
system in their letter dated March 4, 2010.
Following approval, the following activities were performed: On June 1, 2010 the GEA contractor
flushed the buried high-density polyethylene conveyance pipelines; the pipeline was abandoned in
place. An electrical contractor removed the electrical service wire and fixtures from electrical and
well vaults. The drilling contractor abandoned the off-site wells on June 1 through June 3, 2010.
The plugged and abandoned wells are: SEW-1 through SEW-4, SEW-06, SEW-11, P83-02S
through P83-05S, P83-12S through P83-16S, S-01, SMW-09, SMW-11 through SMW-14, SMW-
18, SW-06, and SW-07. Consistent with the City of Albuquerque specifications, the vaults were
abandoned and the streets and sidewalks were repaired.
Chemical Injection Remediation Program
Consistent with the recommendations made by the EPA and NMED during Site meetings with GEA
on December 4, 2009, and January 27, 2010, Axis Group, Inc. (Axis) on behalf of GEA, submitted a
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review

051308
-------
work plan to EPA to optimize the shallow zone ground water treatment system by implementing a
chemical injection remediation program. Ground water remediation in the areas proximate to
monitoring well SW-08 (South Plant 83) and extraction well SEW-05 (North Plant 83) would be
enhanced to complete the overall shallow zone ground water remediation program for eventual
close out the OU 05.
Following EPA approval, June 1, 2010, of the chemical injection remediation program, In-Situ
Oxidative Technologies, Inc. (ISOTEC) was retained by Axis to conduct an in-situ chemical
oxidation (ISCO) remediation program using modified Fenton's Reagent on saturated soil and
ground water contamination at two separate areas described as: 1) Shallow Zone Aquifer - SEW-05
Area (North Area); and 2) Shallow Zone Aquifer - SW-08 Area (South Area). The field activities
conducted by ISOTEC occurred during a one time injection event conducted on July 31, 2010 and
August 1, 2010.
The remediation program utilized direct-push technology (DPT) to introduce Modified Fenton's
reagents. During this injection event, ISOTEC installed and injected reagent into 11 temporary
screens at the South Plant 83 Area and 4 temporary injection screens at the North Plant 83 Area.
The plan called for reagents to be injected through specially designed injection screens installed
across specific target treatment intervals by a DPT subcontractor.
The South Area injection screens were installed across a 5-foot interval at depths ranging from 22 to
27 feet below ground surface (bgs) and 24 to 29 feet bgs. The North Area injection screens were
installed across a 4-foot interval from 18 to 21 feet bgs. Injection intervals were determined from
the depth to water and base of the perched zone in each area. A DPT rig operated by Vista
GeoScience was used to install each temporary injection screen utilized during the injection event.
During the injection event, ISOTEC injected reagent at each of the 15 injection screens, each
receiving a maximum of 100 gallons of catalyst and 100 gallons of stabilized 12% hydrogen
peroxide. Pressures at the wellheads ranged from 0 to 40 pounds per square inch (psi) and the
injection rates ranged from 3.0 to 4.1 gallons per minute (gpm) during injection activities. Samples
were collected from monitoring wells SEW-10, SMW-08 and SEW-5 for three consecutive months
after the injections. Analytical results of post injections and other compliance sampling are
discussed further in Section III, Data Review.
Closure of GEA Manufacturing Facility
In August, 2009 GEA informed EPA that the manufacturing facility operations would cease in late
2010. On July 12, 2010 EPA sent a letter to GEA requesting a plan for investigations related to the
Plant 83 closure which GEA responded to on August 3, 2010.
Operations at GEA manufacturing facility ceased on September 24, 2010. On December 10, 2010
Daniel B Stevens and Associates (DBS&A) on behalf of GEA submitted a Sump Investigation
Workplan which outlined plans to inspect all sumps and determine which sumps would require
further investigation including soil borings. DBS&A inspected 71 sumps of which 26 were
identified as requiring soil boring and sampling for residual contamination. A total of six sumps
sampled showed results of analytical parameters exceeding the EPA's industrial site soil screening
level (SSL). Only semi-volatile compounds exceeded any SSL. In the remaining two sumps called

-------
the East West Tank Line (EWTL) further soil sampling was conducted to delineate hexavalent
chromium contamination.
On October 12, 2011 DBS&A submitted a workplan for the remediation of hazardous materials at
the EWTL. The remediation of hexavalent chromium impacted soil and concrete were conducted
during November and December, 2011. All soil and concrete excavated was transported to an EPA-
licensed hazardous waste treatment, storage and disposal facility. On November 4, 2011 GEA
submitted a EWTL Ground Water Sampling and Flow Plan. Results of ground water sampling
confirmed that levels of hexavalent chromium in ground water were lower than federal MCLs and
NMWQCC ground water standards. A final closure report was approved by EPA on November 2,
2012.
Further North Plant 83 Closure
Since the monitoring and extraction well data from the North Plant 83 indicated all VOCs were
below ARARs for at least eight consecutive quarters, EPA approved closure of all wells on the
North Plant 83 Area on May 31, 2011. On November 1, 2011 GEA requested formal closure of the
Operable Unit 05 (OU 05) North Plant 83 Area shallow zone ground water remediation system.
Having completed: all ground water sampling and analysis; abandonment of 16 monitoring wells,
four extraction wells and one injection well; and other infrastructure cleanup and removal, on
November 24, 2011 EPA acknowledged that GEA had satisfied all requirements associated with the
North Plant 83 Remediation System.
South Plant 83 Closure
The final ground water sample was collected from the South Plant 83 remediation system
monitoring well SW-08 on August 31, 2012. GEA, in a letter dated August 15, 2012, requested the
closure of the OU 05 South Plant 83 Area shallow zone ground water remediation system. After
review of GEA's submittals dated August 15, 2012, September 19, 2012 and January 23, 2013,
supporting closure, EPA approved GEA's request for closure on February 13, 2013.
On May 18, 2013 GEA submitted the Final Closure Report for the South Plant 83 remediation
system detailing the abandonment of 10 monitoring wells, 10 unused monitoring wells, one
extraction well, three monitoring wells associated with the deep zone, and cleanup and removal of
infrastructure related to the South Plant 83 Remediation System. Appendix B, Table 1 and Figure 2,
lists and shows all wells abandoned associated with OU 05.
South Plant 83 Institutional Controls
GEA recorded in the property records of the Bernalillo County Clerk's Office on September 16,
2014, a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants for the South Plant 83 Area which detail institutional
controls that limits property use and establishes ground water use restriction and soil engineering
controls (Table 3). GEA submitted a letter to EPA on September 22, 2014, Request for Closure
Former Plant 83/GE Operable Unit 05, requesting that EPA formally close the ROD for the Former
Air Force Plant 83/General Electric, South Valley Superfund Site, signed September 30, 1988 (OU

Optimization of the Deep Zone Remediation System
GEA initiated optimization of the deep zone remediation system in October, 2012. At GEA's
request Axis conducted ground water flow modeling to optimize capture of impacted ground water.
Using ground water flow modeling incorporating results from pump tests on extraction wells EW-
003R and EW-004, GEA changed ground water extraction by terminating pumping from extraction
well EW-001 and EW-002 and increasing ground water extraction flow rates in EW-003R from 140
gallons per minute (gpm) to 400 gpm and in EW-004 from 110 gpm to 140 gpm. The changes in
the extraction rates were intended to increase extraction efficiency in the two areas of the deep zone
aquifer where dissolved VOCs in the ground water continue to be detected above ARARs. The
dissolved VOCs in the areas of the deep zone aquifer addressed by extraction wells EW-001 and
EW-002 have been below ARARs since October 1999 and April 2009 respectively. Ground water
monitoring of EW-001 and EW-002 continues.
In conjunction with the termination of extraction wells EW-001 and EW-002, Axis on behalf of
GEA submitted a workplan to EPA on August 25, 2014 to further improve the efficiency of the
deep zone treatment system by installing two new extraction wells and replacing one injection well.
The two new extraction wells, EW-005 and EW-006 were installed in January 2015 in the deep
zone to address areas that have dissolved COCs above ARARs. Each well has a 40 foot screen to
address a target capture zone. The new pumping rates for the four extraction wells are; EW-003R,
250 gpm; EW-004, 140 gpm; EW-005, 100 gpm; and EW-006, 100 gpm. In addition injection well
IW-636R was installed in January 2015 to replace IW-636.

-------
Community Notification and Involvement
A notice was published in the local newspaper, the "Albuquerque Journal", on December 4, 2014
stating that a FYR will be conducted for the Site and inviting the public to submit any comments to
the EPA (Appendix E). An additional public notice was published in the Albuquerque Journal on
January 15, 2015. When completed a public notice will be placed in the Albuquerque Journal to
announce the final FYR Report will be available at the Site information repository located at
Zimmerman Library, and the Government Information Department, University of New Mexico,
Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Document Review
This Fifth FYR for the Site included a review of relevant site documents, including RODs/ESD, the
Consent Decree, Administrative Orders, annual remedial status reports, monitoring reports,
optimization plans, ARARs and other ancillary documents. The complete list of documents
reviewed during this second FYR is provided in Appendix C, which also constitutes the list of
references for this document.
Data Review
Data review for this FYR consisted of review of all analytical results for each OU with an emphasis
on ground water quality data for OUs 03, 05 and 06, as continued ground water monitoring occurred
during this review period at these OUs. The following sections describe the monitoring
requirements for each of the three OUs and provides brief discussions of the analytical results
obtained during this FYR period. Other data that is discussed below pertain to treated effluent
quality and water level data indicating ground water flow direction.
OU 03 Univar
Both the ground water and vadose zone treatment systems at this OU were terminated in the fall of
2006, so they did not operate during this FYR cycle. Only ground water samples and water level
data were collected during this FYR period as described in the following subsections
Volatile Organic Compounds (except 1,4-Dioxane - discussed in following subsection)
In specified ground water monitoring wells (GM-02, GM-1 IS, GM-13, GM-21, and GM-27),
quarterly ground water monitoring for VOCs was initiated in January, 2009, to determine if eight
consecutive quarters of meeting ARARs could be achieved. As of November 2013 ground water
monitoring results indicated that ARARs had been met.
At the beginning of this FYR period (August, 2010), analytical results for ground water samples
from five monitoring wells, exhibited concentrations of tetrachloroethene (PCE) below the cleanup
level. These wells were GM-02, GM-1 IS, GM-13, GM-21, and GM-27. Of these wells, only GM-
02 and GM-21 have had detections of PCE above the ARAR of 5 [j,g/L since August, 2010.
Analytical results for the sample collected from GM-02 reported a concentration of 5.2 [j,g/L in July,
2010. Analytical results for the sample collected from GM-21 reported a concentration of 7.0 [j,g/L

-------
in October 2011. Subsequently, during this FYR period all five monitoring wells have
demonstrated eight consecutive quarters of COCs below ARARS.
Appendix B, Table 2, presents the summary of the analytical results for the four most frequently
detected analytes at Univar during this FYR period which include: 1,1 -DCE, 1,1,1 -Trichloroethane
(TCA), TCE, and PCE. Analytical results for other VOCs are presented in the quarterly and semi-
annual sampling reports and are below the remedial action goals set for Univar.
1.4-Dioxane
During this FYR period samples have been collected from a series of Univar ground water
monitoring wells for 1,4-dioxane. The last quarterly report (July, 2014) submitted to EPA,
indicated that samples were collected from 20 monitoring wells with analytical results for 19
samples reporting 1,4-dioxane above 1.0 (J,g/L. Analysis for six samples reported concentrations
greater than or equal to 6.0 [j,g/L and 13 results with concentrations less than 6.0 |ig/L, Site wide
1,4-dioxane concentrations have been reported as high as 161 [j,g/L in a sample collected from GM-
21 (November, 2013). Concentrations in samples from GM-21 and GM-27 were the highest as of
the last quarterly report at 88 [j,g/L and 82 [j,g/L respectively. Since no ARAR exists for 1,4-
dioxane a risk based cleanup goal of 6.7 |ig/L was developed. Appendix B, Table 3 provides a
summary of all 1,4-dioxane sampling data at the Site. Going forward ARCADIS will install two
monitoring wells to further delineate 1,4-dioxane in ground water and increase the total monitoring
wells sampled to 31 as stated in the Well Installation Work Plan.
Ground Water Elevation Data
Ground water elevation data from 41 Univar wells are presented in Table 2 of the July 2014
Sampling of Ground Water Monitoring Wells Report. A potentiometric surface map is included as
Figure 2 of the quarterly report. These data demonstrate a shift in the ground water flow direction
to the southeast from a historical easterly flow direction. The installation of two monitoring wells to
the southeast will improve monitoring coverage and further contribute to the Site conceptual model.
OU 05
Monitoring requirements during this FYR period for this OU included: two monitoring wells and
one extraction well in the North Plant 83 and one monitoring well and one extraction well in the
South Plant 83. Only extraction well SEW-05 (North Plant 83), extraction well SEW-10 and
monitoring well SM-08 (South Plant 83) required quarterly sampling for VOCs. Monitoring data
generated from activities at OU 05 during this FYR for both the North and South Plant 83 Areas are
discussed in the following subsections.
Shallow Zone GEA
Only one extraction well, SEW-10 (South Plant 83) operated during this FYR period. One
treatment system compliance sample of effluent was collected on July 6, 2010 before the ground
water treatment system operation (South Plant 83 and North Plant 83), was terminated on July, 23,
2010. No VOCs were detected.
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico 16 August 17, 2010 thru August 26, 2015
051314
-------
Overall, a total of approximately 1,088,039 gallons of water have been extracted and treated at OU
05 since inception of remediation activities and approximately 396 pounds of VOCs were removed.
The ground water levels have fluctuated since the start of the shallow zone ground water treatment
system in 1994; however, during the last year of the operation (2010), ground water levels have
risen slightly.
Ground Water Data - South Plant 83 Area
No detections above Site ARARs were reported during this FYR period. A sample from monitoring
well SW-08 near the South Plant building had one analyte, 1,1-DCA, detected at its ARAR of 25
[j,g/L in July 2010. Axis, on behalf of GEA, proposed a chemical oxidation injection program be
conducted in the area of monitoring well SW-08 and extraction well SEW-10 in the South Plant 83
Area and the extraction well SEW-05 in the North Plant area. A letter from EPA approved the work
plan on June 1, 2010. Axis implemented the chemical injection remediation program on July 31,
2010. VOCs and metals were monitored monthly for three consecutive months following the
chemical injection. Monitoring well SW-08 had sample concentrations reported for 1,1-DCA at 21
[j,g/L (August 30, 2010), 18 [j,g/L (September 27, 2010) and 17 [j,g/L (October 25, 2010). Samples
were collect from monitoring well SW-08 for six more quarters through April 2012 and
concentrations for 1,1-DCA continued to decline to 6.5 |ig/L,
Ground Water Data - North Plant 83 Area
Due to detections of 1,1-DCE in ground water samples collected from SEW-05 above the 5|ig/L
ARAR (beginning in October of 2008), and detections of COCs in SW-08 (South Plant 83 Area), a
chemical injection remediation program was implemented in July of 2010 to address both the North
and South 83 Plant residual ground water contamination. VOCs and metals were monitored
monthly for three consecutive months following the chemical injection. Samples collected after the
chemical injection remediation program at SEW-05 had concentrations of 1,1-DCE of 3.1 [j,g/L
(August 30, 2010), 3.6 j_ig/L (September 27, 2010), and 3.7 j_ig/L (October 25, 2010). Other
monitoring wells in the North Plant 83 Area that were sampled in October 25, 2010 include SMW-
09 (1.3 ng/L, 1,1-DCE), SMW-10 (no VOCs detected) and P83-01S (1.0 ^g/L, 1,1-DCE).
A final sample was collected from SEW-05 on April 26, 2011 had a 1,1-DCE concentration of 4.1
[j,g/L. As of April 26, 2011 all monitoring and extraction wells located on the North Plant 83 Area
demonstrated eight consecutive quarters with sample concentrations below ARARS.
OU 06 Deep Zone GEA
Monitoring requirements at OU 06 (deep zone aquifer) during this five year review period included:
ground water sample collection for analysis of VOCs from 49 monitoring wells/ports, four
extraction wells and the treatment systems compliance sampling (effluent) port. The frequency of
sample collection was: monitoring wells- semiannually, extraction wells- semiannually, and
effluent- monthly.
The following subsections provide brief discussions on COC mass removal and the data generated
from monitoring conducted during this FYR period. Ground water quality data is presented relative
to the proximity of the extraction wells in which ground water quality is monitored.

-------
Mass Removal
The treatment system removed a total VOC mass of 33.7 pounds (lbs.) from August, 2010 through
June, 2014 (the last reading available). The treatment system has removed a total VOC mass since
operations began in April 1996 of 1,545.3 lbs.
Treatment System Effluent Monitoring
Monthly compliance sampling of treatment system effluent during this FYR demonstrated that VOC
concentrations were non-detect before treated ground water was injected back into the aquifer.
EW-001 and EW-002
Analytical results from ground water monitoring indicates that VOCs in the areas of the deep zone
aquifer addressed by extraction wells EW-001 and EW-002 are below ARARs. EW-001 and EW-
002 have met ARARs since October 1999 and April 2009 respectively. Operation of both
extraction wells terminated in November 2012 as part of GEA's optimization of the deep zone
treatment system.
EW-003R and EW-004
While dissolved VOC concentrations have been below ARARs during this FYR period, VOCs
continued to be detected in samples collected from EW-003R. Concentrations of 1,1-DCE from 4.2
|ig/L in 2010 to 1.9 |ig/L in 2014; TCE concentrations of 2.5 |ig/L in 2010 to 1.4 |ig/L in 2014; and
1,1-DCA concentrations of 2.0 |ig/L in 2010 to 1.35 |ig/L in 2014 were all detected in samples
collected from EW-003R during this review period. Other VOCs detected include PCE and MTBE.
Analytical results for samples collected from EW-004 showed no VOC concentration above 1.5
|ig/L during the review period and only PCE was consistently detected.
The following monitoring wells are in the area most influenced by extraction well EW-003R:
• P83-09D: Concentrations reported for 1,1-DCA, 1,2-DCA, 1,1-DCE, PCE and TCE for
samples collected from P83-09D showed decreases in concentrations below ARARs during
the FYR period until April 2013 when TCE exceeded the ARAR (5.0 |ig/L). TCE
concentrations were reported at 6.3 |ig/L, an increase in concentrations from previous
concentration in October 2012 at 2.3 |ig/L; TCE concentrations have remained slightly
above ARARs in 2014 (5.3 |ig/L and 5.6 |ig/L); TCE was as high as 27 [j,g/L in April 2009.
1,1-DCE, 1,1-DCA and PCE have all remained below ARARs during this review period.
Reported concentrations of other analytes also indicated slight increases in April 2013. The
slight increase in VOC concentrations may be due to GEA's optimization which increased
EW-003R pumping rates from 140 gpm to 400 gpm starting in November 2012.
• WB-01(3): VOC concentrations reported for samples collected from WB-01(3) have been
below ARARs since 2007; however reported concentrations increased in 2013 and 2014.
TCE concentrations increased from <1 |ig/L in October 2012 to 4.6 |ig/L in October, 2013

-------
and 4.0 |ig/L in April 2014. 1,1-DCA, 1,1-DCE and PCE were detected in 2013 and 2014
where neither were detected prior.
• WB-01(4): 1,1-DCE concentrations in samples collected from WB-01(4) continued to
exceed the ARARs during the FYR period. In May 2011 1,1-DCE concentrations were as
high as 30 |ig/L (in duplicate sample) but have trended downward to 13 [j,g/L in April 2014.
1,1-DCA concentrations were as high as 20 |ig/L in October 2011 but have trended
downward to 10 |ig/L in April, 2014. 1,1-DCA remains below the ARAR of 25 |ig/L. PCE
and TCE concentrations at 2.5 |ig/L during this FYR period have remained consistently
below ARARs.
• WB-05(l-3): Concentrations of TCE and 1,1-DCE reported for samples collected from WB-
05(1&2) were generally below ARARS during this FYR period except, TCE was detected in
the sample collected from WB-05(1) at 5.5 |ig/L (April, 2013). The TCE concentration
from WB-05(1) was 3.0 |ig/L on April, 2014.
• WB-05(4): Analytical results for VOCs remained below ARARs during this FYR period.
• WB-05(5): Analytical results for samples collected from WB-05(5) exhibited concentrations
above the ARAR for 1,1-DCE with a high concentration of 8.2 [j,g/L in October 2013 and
ending with a concentration of 6.0 (J,g/L in April 2014.
The following monitoring wells are in the area most influenced by extraction well EW-004;
• WB-02(4): Concentrations of TCE were reported above the ARARs the entire review period
for samples collected from WB-02(4), with April 2010 at 14 [j,g/L and April, 2014 at 6.0
[j,g/L. 1,1-DCE concentrations were above ARARs until October 2013 when the
concentration was 4.0 [^g/L and 3.0 [j,g/L in April 2014. PCE did not exceed the ARAR
during this FYR period.
• WB-04(5): During this FYR period, reported concentrations of TCE, 1,1-DCE and PCE in
samples collected from WB-04(5) showed a sharp increase from below ARARs in October
2012 ARARS to 20 (^g/L, 8.5 [j,g/L and 12 (J,g/L, respectively in April 2014.
OU6 Summary
In April 2013 VOC concentrations showed a sudden increase in samples collected from wells P83-
09D, WB-05(3) and WB-04(5), with TCE, PCE, and 1,1-DCE detected above ARARs. This may
reflect the optimization which began in November 2012 with the change in extraction well pumping
rates. While VOC concentrations continue to decrease overall, concentrations in samples collected
from wells P83-09D, WB-05(3) and WB-04(5) remain above ARARs.
There are a series of sentinel wells east (down-gradient) of the deep zone remediation system and
the capture zone. These wells are in place to indicate migration of contaminants in the deep zone.
In April 2012 1,1-DCA was detected at low levels (<2.0 |ig/L) in samples collected from three
sentinel wells (P83-19U, P83-19M and P83-30D2). P83-30D2 samples had never exhibited VOC

detections and it had been over 10 years since VOCs were detected in samples collected from the
other two wells. Confirmation samples were collected in May, 2012. P83-19U analytical results
reported 1,1-DCA at 1.8 |ig/L. Analytical results for P83-19U continue to show 1,1-DCA at low
levels, as high as 3.3 |ig/L in October 2013. All detections are below the ARAR of 25 |ig/L.
Plume Containment
The design objectives of the deep zone ground water remediation system include hydraulic control
of the deep zone plume and flushing of VOCs from the deep zone aquifer to meet ARARs.
GEA measured the depth to water in the conventional monitoring wells, piezometers, and
extraction/injection wells and recorded hydrostatic pressure in the multi-port monitoring wells
during the ground water monitoring events. Since monitoring wells are screened at various
elevations throughout the deep zone aquifer, ground water elevation or potentiometric surface
contour maps were prepared for five aquifer levels depicted in Table 4.

According to the 2013/2014 Deep Zone Annual report, extraction wells have created capture zones
for the ground water between elevations 4,840-4,600 ft amsl, all deep zone aquifer levels (see
Figures 5 and 9 for 4,790-4,840 ft amsl; Figures 6 and 10 for 4,660-4,790 ft amsl; and Figures 7 and
11 for 4,600-4,660 ft amsl, 2013/2014 Deep Zone Annual Report). All wells with exceedances
noted previously, with the exception of WB-02(4) and WB-04(5), are located within the horizon of
4,840-4,600 ft amsl. The screens for well WB-02(4) and WB-04(5) are located within the horizon
of 4,500-4,600 ft amsl (screen interval 4,599.66-4589.92 and 4580.31-4560.31 ft amsl respectively).
As analytical results indicate that concentrations of COCs have decreased since 2009 in these wells,
it is considered that there is capture of contaminated water from the 4,500-4,600 ft amsl. Interval
capture zones are depicted in figures in the annual reports and they have not changed significantly
over this FYR review period.
Site Inspection
Site inspections were conducted on January 27, 2015 at GEA and January 28, 2015 at Univar. In
attendance at GEA were Michael Hebert- EPA Remedial Project Manager (RPM); Allan Pasteris-
NMED; Randall McAlister and Julie Einerson- GEA; and John Billiard, Leonard Stockton and
Louis Keating- AXIS. In attendance at Univar were Michael Hebert- EPA; Allan Pasteris- NMED;
and Katy Brantingham- ARCADIS. The site inspection checklist is included in Appendix E.

Individual photographic logs for Univar and GEA for the inspections are also included in Appendix
E.
GEA Inspection
The site inspection team inspected OU 05 where all wells have been plugged and abandoned and a
cement cap has been installed over the soil removal area at the Former South Plant. The inspection
team also inspected the residential neighborhood north of the former North Plant where monitoring
and extraction wells have been plugged and abandoned, infrastructure removed, and roads and
sidewalks repaired. The inspection team inspected a significant number of monitoring wells, all
extraction wells, as well as the treatment system and building associated with the OU 06 deep zone
aquifer remediation system. The inspection team also examined the location and installation of two
new extraction wells (EW-005 and EW-006) and the new replacement injection well (IW-636R)
associated with remedial activities at OU 06.
The removal and repair work done in the residential neighborhood of OU 05 was very well done.
The general appearance of OU 06 was excellent and well maintained. Equipment associated with
remedial systems appeared to be in good working order and well serviced. Many of the wells and
the remediation treatment buildings are located within fenced areas; and all wells are locked and
secure. The wells located outside of the fenced areas are locked and secure. All hazardous
materials on-site are properly stored. All exterior security fences were in excellent condition. All
pertinent documents are on-site, readily available and up to date.
Univar Inspection
The site inspection team inspected monitoring wells, extraction wells and the treatment system
which is currently not operating at OU 03. The inspection also consisted of identifying the locations
of the two proposed monitoring wells on the eastside of Interstate 25. The site inspection team
reviewed Univar's current plans for temporary access to property on the eastside of Interstate 25 to
drill and install the two proposed monitoring wells. Well installation will require closing the
shoulder and the outside north bound lane to access the road shoulder and into Site property.
Univar will have to present the plan to NMDOT and the Federal Highway Administration for
approval. ARCADIS explained the NMDOT representatives that visited the site were favorable to
the temporary access plan.
The general appearance of OU 03 was excellent and well maintained. Equipment associated with
remedial systems appeared to be in good working order and well serviced. Many of the wells and
the remediation treatment buildings are located within fenced areas; and all wells are locked and
secure. The wells located outside of the fenced areas are locked and secure. All hazardous
materials on-site are properly stored. All exterior security fences were in excellent condition. All
pertinent documents our on-site, readily available and up to date.
The areas associated with OU 03 and OU 06 continues to be plagued by illegal dumping, mostly of
household items and construction debris. Dumping activities do not appear to have affected access
to wells in the area. The NMDOT owns property east and southeast of Univar; NMDOT heavy
equipment damaged GM-1 IS in that the outer protective casing, cement well pad and bollards were
all replaced.

Interviews
The interview process for this FYR was conducted by submitting questionnaires to parties directly
or indirectly associated with the Site, including the current landowners, and regulatory agencies
involved in Site activities or aware of the Site. The purpose of the interview process was to
document any perceived problems or successes with the remedy that has been implemented to date.
Questionnaires were sent out on December 11, 2014. Responses provided on the questionnaires are
summarized below and complete questionnaires are included in Appendix D. The following
representatives participated in the interview process:
• Ester and Steven Abyeta, Residents of San Jose Neighborhood;
• Bart Faris, Environmental Scientist, Remediation Oversight Section, NMED;
• Rick Shean, Water Quality Hydrologist, Albuquerque, Bernalillo County Water Utility
Authority (ABCWUA);
• Gabe Lewis, Project Manager, Chevron;
• Julie Einerson, Environmental Project Manager, General Electric;
• John W. Billiard, Technical Director, Axis Group, Inc.;
• Katy Brantingham, Associate Vice President, ARCADIS USA, Inc.
Most comments were favorable to the progress and management of the ongoing remedial activities
at the Site. Most people interviewed feel communication and information dissemination is good.
Mr. Rick Shean requested more frequent distribution of water quality data and reports. Mr. Gabe
Lewis expressed positive comments that South Valley Superfund Site contract remediation
personnel were accommodating and informative during Chevron's recent remediation system
removal activities near the Site. Mr. Lewis stated some trespassing and theft of recyclable material
occurred during remediation and system removal activities at the Vicenergy terminal. Bart Faris,
and Mr. Lewis expressed remediation activities should have a positive effect on the surrounding
community and property, allowing property transactions without future environmental liability
concerns.
Mr. Steve and Mrs. Ester Abeyta, living very near the South Valley Superfund Site, expressed
concerns and frustrations of residents. Mr. and Mrs. Abyeta expressed that some cleanup progress
has been made, but it is not enough. Mr. and Mrs. Abyeta stated that many residents have seen
property values decrease and they are required to disclose that their homes are located in a
Superfund area when selling their property. They also informed that EPA has provided letters of
assurance for liability protection from a Superfund area to landowners whose properties are
designated Brownfield properties allowing financial opportunities to redevelop and restore their
property. Mr. and Mrs. Abyeta expressed concerns with the Sunport Extension and what effects
this may have on the remedial activities since the road is designed to go through OU 06. Additional
concerns expressed noted cleanup efforts have released additional amounts of VOCs into the area
through air strippers at the Ground Water Treatment Plant. In closing, Mr. and Mrs. Abeyta stated
that the revitalization of the community of San Jose should be a priority of EPA, NMED and GE.
In response to several concerns provided in the questionnaires, GE, EPA and NMED have worked

-------
closely with Bernalillo County to assure that remedial infrastructure (wells, pipelines and electrical)
and remedial actions will not be affected if and when the Sunport Extension road construction
occurs. In addition, some VOCs may be released to the air during the operation of the ground water
treatment by air strippers, the anticipated air emissions from the temporary treatment plant were
calculated during the Design Phase and found to be in compliance with all applicable regulations
and local air quality permitting requirements. An air emission registration for the treatment plant
was filed with and approved by the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County Air Quality Control Board
(ABC/AQCB). The ABC/AQCB also required that atmospheric dispersion modeling of regulated
air pollutants be conducted for comparison to ambient air quality standards. The results indicate
that ambient concentrations resulting from this source are less than all applicable local, state, and
federal standards.
IV. Technical Assessment
Question A: Is the remedy functioning as intended by the decision documents?
RA Performance
The review of documents, monitoring data, and the results of the site inspection indicates that the
remedy components are functioning as intended at all OUs. Remedial action goals and objectives
have been achieved at OUs 01, 02, and 04. The following briefly describes remedial action status at
OUs 03, 05, and 06.
OU 03 Univar
The remedial systems at OU 03 (Univar) have decreased the concentrations of all VOCs to below
the ARARs. The RA has satisfactorily completed all of the requirements of the Consent Decree
dated March 27, 1990 as they pertain to the COCs in ground water identified in the ROD signed on
June 28, 1988 in that the concentrations of COCs are less than the clean-up levels that were
specified in the ROD and subsequent ESD (September 2006). The concentrations of COCs (not
including 1,4-dioxane) were less than the clean-up goals for at least eight consecutive sampling
events before sampling was discontinued.
The EPA approved Univar's recommended actions regarding further investigation of 1,4-dioxane as
a COC. A remedial action plan will be prepared sometime during 2015 and will be dependent upon
completion of well installations and ground water monitoring.
OU 05 GEA Shallow Zone
The ground water treatment system at OU 05 (the shallow zone aquifer at GEA) was completely
shut down in July 2010. VOC concentrations were below ARARs in all but two wells. To address
recalcitrant "hot spots", GEA implemented a chemical injection remediation program in July, 2010
at two separate areas described as: 1) Shallow Zone Aquifer - SEW-05 Area (North Plant 83 Area);
and 2) Shallow Zone Aquifer - SW-08 Area (South Plant 83 Area). This effort was followed by
ground water monitoring.
Having decreased concentrations of all VOCs to below cleanup levels, compliance ground water

monitoring was completed in 2012. GEA on September 22, 2014 requested closure of the OU 05
ROD signed on September 30, 1988 stating GEA has satisfactorily completed all requirements of
the Administrative Order dated July 3, 1989. All wells and infrastructure associated with the OU 05
ground water treatment system have been plugged and abandoned or removed as approved by EPA.
GEA is compiling a final report documenting the remedial activities that have been completed at
OU 05. Upon completion of the report, GEA and EPA will discuss de-listing OU 05 from the
National Priorities List (NPL).
OU 06 GEA Deep Zone
The remedial system at OU 06 (the deep zone aquifer at GEA) has substantially reduced the mass
and volume of contaminants in the deep zone aquifer, and the plume is captured and stable. The
contaminant plume is consistently shrinking and in general, the system operates as designed. The
plume of contamination has been reduced to two smaller areas currently with five monitoring wells
with concentrations above ARARS. GEA has installed two additional extraction wells specifically
targeting these areas. The remedial treatment system continues to effectively and efficiently treat
extracted ground water and inject it back into the aquifer.
System Operations and O&M
ARCADIS, the Univar remediation contractor and Axis, the GEA remediation contractor, have
provided the costs for the Site O&M activities since January 2010. Yearly O&M costs for this FYR
period, 2010-2014 for Univar (OU 03) and GEA (OU 02, OU 05 and OU 06) can be found in
Appendix B, Table 5.
A review of the previous FYR O&M costs for fiscal years 2010 through 2014 were an average of
approximately $67,892 a year for Univar which is an increase from the previous FYR (2005-2009)
of $20,000. The OU 03 (Univar ground water system) annual O&M costs were estimated in the
ROD (EPA, 1988b) to be $37,000 per year. The remedial treatment system has not operated since
October, 2006 and VOC ground water monitoring was reduced to five wells on a quarterly basis in
January, 2008. The increase in O&M costs can be attributed to the investigation of 1,4-dioxane
which included quarterly sampling and an increase in the total wells sampled. Several 1,4-dioxane
investigative costs not included were the extended pump test in 2012 which cost $248,000,
reporting, database management and project management. Univar is projected to install two new
monitoring wells in 2015 as part of the 1,4-dioxane investigation.
O&M costs for fiscal years 2010 through 2014 were an average of approximately $1,147,240 a year
at GEA. The ROD for the OUs 05 and 06 (GEA shallow soils and shallow and deep zone aquifers)
does not specify any costs for the ground water treatment remediation systems and shows a total
cost for the soil treatment options, which was completed in 1993. The Third FYR states that since
March 1996, when the deep zone ground water remediation system was started, annual operation
and maintenance costs averaged about $700,000 per year. For the Fourth FYR period, average
annual costs amounted to $1,072,240, which is due to the deep zone system optimization and
mitigation of vandalism. O&M costs for 2008 escalated to $2,627,819 due to system optimization
that included the installation of a new extraction well, EW-003R. In the Fifth FYR, average annual
costs amounted to $1,147,240 a year, and increased due to continued optimization of the Deep Zone
remediation system in 2012 with pump testing, chemical oxidation program in 2010 and soil

removal at South Plant 83 in 2011. The installation of two new extraction wells and a replacement
injection well in 2015 would certainly show an increase. System optimization in 2010 that reduced
the amounts of samples collected semi-annually in the deep zone along with the closure of OU 05
(shallow zone) resulted in reduction of O&M costs.
Opportunities for Optimization
OU 03
Pending review of analytical data from the two new monitoring wells at OU 03, Univar may be
required to treat 1,4-dioxane.
OU 06
Many optimization efforts were conducted at OU 06 during this FYR period. Future review of
analytical data will indicate if previous efforts were successful. Should data indicate that COCs in
samples collected from deep zone monitoring wells persist, GEA will need to re-evaluate their
ground water extraction system.

During this FYR, there were no indications of remedy failures effecting protectiveness

BACKGROUND
This section discusses the Site's physical characteristics, land and resource use near the Site, history
of site contamination, initial response actions, and basis for the response.
Physical Characteristics
The South Valley Site is located at in an industrial area in the southern portion of Albuquerque,
New Mexico (Figures 1 and 2), approximately one-half mile west of the Albuquerque International
Airport and approximately one-half mile east of the Rio Grande, close to the intersection of South
Broadway and Woodward Road. The South valley Site is located in an industrial and commercial
area with some residential areas existing just north of the Site.
Hydrology
The hydrogeologic units encountered at the Site are described in the paragraphs below. Ground
water is located in the Santa Fe Group Aquifer. The remediation at Univar, OU 03, is limited to the
shallow portion of the aquifer while at General Electric Aviation (GEA), OUs 05 and 06, because
the impact extends deeper within the formation, the remediation addresses different depth horizons
that were divided by convention into the shallow zone aquifer and the deep zone aquifer. The deep
zone aquifer includes both the intermediate zone and deep zone referred to in the 1988 ROD for OU
03). OU 05 addresses impacts to the shallow zone aquifer located proximate to the South Plant 83
and North Plant 83 Areas and a portion of the San Jose residential neighborhood, located just north
of North Plant 83 Area. OU 06 addresses impacts to portions of the deep zone aquifer found east of
the Plant 83 facilities, south of Woodward Road and east of South Broadway. Descriptions of the
shallow zone and deep zone aquifers are provided below as outlined in the Second FYR for GEA.

-------
Shallow Zone Aquifer
By convention, the shallow zone aquifer refers to ground water that is above the relatively
continuous silty clay layer and/or above an elevation of 4,900 feet (ft) above mean sea level (amsl).
In the North Plant 83 Area, there is a continuous silty clay layer underneath the aquifer.
Accordingly, the shallow zone aquifer ground water is primarily perched. Perched ground water
does not have a uniform flow direction, but rather flows in directions dictated by the undulating
surface of the underlying silty clay layer. In the South Plant 83 Area, the silty clay layer underneath
the aquifer is not continuous. Hence, the ground water generally flows west to east. The shallow
zone formation consists of layers of coarse-grained sands, silty sands, clays, and silty clays. This
shallow zone aquifer generally extends to a depth of approximately 20-25 ft below ground surface
(bgs). The shallow zone formation is underlain by a relatively continuous silty clay layer, except at
the south end of South Plant 83 where it is absent or does not provide hydraulic separation from the
deep zone aquifer.
Deep Zone Aquifer
By convention, the deep zone aquifer refers to the aquifer below an elevation of 4,900 ft amsl. The
following text summarily describes the deep zone aquifer geology. The geology consists of
unconsolidated alluvial units of the older Santa Fe Group. These sediments (down to approximately
4,300 ft amsl) are primarily ancestral Rio Grande-related, braided fluvial deposits and contain
lenticular deposits of finer grained, relatively lower conductivity sands, silts, and clays. Sediments
within the upper 600-700 ft of the deep zone aquifer (the area where ground water is being
remediated) are characterized by high proportions of sands and gravels that form extensive and
locally high conductivity units across the site. Discontinuous silts and clays are present within this
interval, and may limit the downward rate of contaminant movement in the vertical direction. Note
that these silts and clays form confining layers in upper portions of the aquifer, but these confining
layers are not laterally extensive. There is no evidence of a laterally extensive confining layer east
of the Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo and Flood Control Authority (AMAFCA) South Diversion
Channel, in the area of interest.
Land and Resource Use
Historical and current land use surrounding the Site is primarily industrial, with some residential use
to the north of the site.
Former Use at Univar
The Univar Site has been used for various industrial and commercial purposes for approximately
50 years. In 1965, Edmunds Chemical Company (Edmunds) purchased the land. Edmunds and its
successor, SEC Corporation (SEC), distributed various industrial chemicals in addition to selling
dry ice, chlorine, and ammonia gas. In 1971, SEC sold the industrial chemical portion of its
business to Univar (formerly Van Waters & Rogers) and SEC continued in the business of selling
dry ice, chlorine, and ammonia gas. Univar began leasing the eastern portion of the property for its
activities, while SEC continued to occupy the rest of the site. In 1974, Univar enhanced a naturally
occurring shallow depression (now called the SV-10 area) to control stormwater runoff on the
eastern portion of the site.

-------
In 1977, AmeriGas acquired SEC and continued the dry ice, chlorine, and ammonia gas operation,
while Univar remained as a tenant. AmeriGas sold the property in 1982 to Dixie Chemical, and re-
acquired the property later that same year. Since 1985, only Univar has been active at the site. In
June 1988, Univar purchased the property from AmeriGas and has since owned and operated the
site.
Former Use at GEA
The Plant 83 facility consisted of two facilities: North Plant 83 Area located north of Woodward
Road, which was demolished in October 1997, and South Plant 83 Area located south of Woodward
Road, which is still in use today. Both facilities have been used for manufacturing purposes since
the 1950s, first by Eidel Manufacturing, followed by the Atomic Energy Commission through its
contractor American Car Foundry, followed by U.S. the Air Force through its contractor General
Electric, and finally by GEA as facility owner since 1984. Note that for simplicity, the current
name of the owner, GEA, will be used throughout this appendix.
Former Use in the Vicinity of Univar and GEA
Several industrial and commercial operations were located in the proximity of the Univar and GEA
sites: the Whitfield Tank Lines, Texaco Terminal, Chevron Terminal, ATA Pipeline, and Duke City
Petroleum. Remedial actions (RA)s to mitigate hydrocarbon contamination at these other locations
are handled under separate agreements with the New Mexico Environment Department (NMED)
Ground Water Quality Bureau (GWQB).
History of Contamination
In 1978, the City of Albuquerque analyzed samples from the San Jose and Miles municipal
well fields. Low levels of volatile organic compounds (YOC)s were detected in wells SJ-3
(about one-half mile northwest of North Plant 83 Area) and SJ-6 (just southeast of the
intersection of Woodward Road and Broadway Road), which were located in the San Jose
well field and in well Miles-1, located in the Miles Well Field. These wells were
temporarily taken out of service. Well Miles-1 was returned to service as repeated
chemical analysis failed to confirm the presence of any contaminants. Both SJ-3 and SJ-6
wells were plugged and abandoned in 1994 as part of the RA under the ROD for OU 01
(also known as the SJ-6 ROD). The RA at OU 01 was then completed through the
installation of a well that replaced the amount of water taken out of service through the
well abandonment.
In 1981, the EPA and NMED (formerly the Environmental Improvement Division of the New
Mexico Health and Environment Department) designated a 1-square mile area around SJ-6 (SJ-
6 Study Area) which was added to the National Priorities List (NPL) as area OU 02 of the
South Valley Superfimd Site. In order to locate potential sources of ground water
contamination in the vicinity of SJ-6, the NMED conducted a regional study, entitled "Organic
Ground-Water Pollutants in the South Valley of Albuquerque, New Mexico," December 1982. As
a result of the investigation, EPA and NMED identified the following six potential source
locations in the South Valley: General Electric/Air Force (now GEA), Chevron, Texaco, Duke
City Distributing, Whitfield Tank Lines, and the Edmunds Street property (now Univar). The

-------
owners of these sites were identified as Potentially Responsible Parties (PRP)s. As part of the
Superfund process, EPA and NMED conducted a focused feasibility study to evaluate remedial
measures for well SJ-6 and two phases of site characterization which were conducted in 1984 and
1985. Based on these investigations, the EPA published a remedial investigation report and a
feasibility study which concluded that the trace concentrations of solvents in the vicinity of SJ-6
"do not pose a threat to public health or the environment" provided that the SJ-6 RA (well
plugging and abandonment) as described in the initial ROD for the South Valley Site is
implemented.
Univar Investigations
In the early 1980s, three site-specific investigations of ground water contamination were
conducted at the Edmunds Street site for Dixie Chemical, AmeriGas, and Univar by
Underground Resource Management (1982), American Ground-Water Consultants (1983),
and D'Appolonia Waste Management Services (1983 and 1984). In 1985, ARCADIS
(formerly Geraghty & Miller) conducted a source control investigation to locate on-site
sources of VOCs and to preliminarily define the nature and extent of the contaminated soil
and ground water. The source control investigation involved installing eight monitoring
wells, taking water-level measurements, collecting two rounds of ground water samples,
performing geophysical logging of selected wells, and conducting an aquifer test.
Based on the initial results of the source control investigation, a work plan was prepared to
investigate potential off-site migration. The work plan was submitted to EPA and NMED on
March 26, 1987, and received final approval on July 5, 1987. The purpose of the off-site
investigation was to determine the extent of the VOC contamination in ground water east of the
site and involved a soil gas survey and the installation of additional monitoring wells.
Based on additional studies, including the site remedial investigation, feasibility study, and a
public health evaluation prepared by Harding Lawson Associates (HLA) in 1989, EPA issued a
ROD which stated that the source (OU 04) of site-related VOCs no longer exists at the
Edmunds Street site. Only the ground water plume (OU 03) of site-related VOCs required
remediation, as agreed in the Consent Decree, 1990, between Univar and the EPA and NMED.
A special report prepared by ARCADIS and HLA, which was accepted by the EPA and
NMED, demonstrated that site-related VOCs did not travel northwestward from the site and
were not implicated in the contamination at OUs 01 (Well SJ-6). Ultimately, Univar was
removed as a PRP from the OU 01.
GEA Investigations
Initial investigations on the GEA property were conducted in 1984 and 1985. A second
investigation was conducted in 1987 and 1988. VOCs in ground water were detected as high as 112
micrograms per liter ((J,g/L) for 1,1-dichloroethane (DCA), 55 [j,g/L for 1,1-dichloroethene (DCE),
30 [j,g/L for 1,2-DCA, 64 [j,g/L for trichloroethene (TCE), 28 [j,g/L for tetrachloroethene (PCE), and
2.6 [j,g/L for vinyl chloride. Low concentrations of VOCs were detected in soils. These findings
formed the basis of data used in preparing the Former Plant 83/General Electric OU ROD (which
covered what later became OUs 05 and 06), which was signed in September 1988. Subsequent to
issuing the ROD, GEA conducted further investigations as part of the remedial design process.
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico AA-10 August 17,2010 thru August 26, 2015
051338
-------
These investigations spanned several years and their results are documented in investigation reports,
quarterly reports, and annual reports.
Elements of these investigations included installing numerous monitoring wells, conducting a pilot-
scale vapor extraction system, a full-scale aquifer test, a pilot-scale ground water treatment system,
and numerous rounds of ground water level and ground water quality sampling. Each report and its
data were considered in the design of the three remedial systems required by the Plant 83 ROD (i.e.,
unsaturated and saturated portions of the shallow zone aquifer (OU 05) and the deep zone aquifer
(OU 06).
At the time the RODs were signed on 30 September 1988, remedial investigations identified extent
of VOCs as follows:
• In the unsaturated portion of the shallow zone aquifer at the north end of North Plant 83
Area and the south end of South Plant 83;
• In the shallow zone aquifer at the north end of North Plant 83, and north of North Plant 83
Area beneath a residential neighborhood;
• In the ground water proximate to the south end of South Plant 83 Area ; and
• In the intermediate zone (140-160 ft bgs) in well DMW-2 located west of the intersection of
Broadway and Woodward Road.
No free-phase solvents (i.e., dense non-aqueous phase liquids or light non-aqueous phase liquids)
were ever discovered during any of the investigations conducted at the GEA property. The ROD
called for additional characterization to refine the location of contaminants in both the shallow zone
and deep zone aquifers to be remediated as part of the design process. Additional characterization
was conducted as part of shallow zone aquifer remediation design and VOCs were detected in the
unsaturated and saturated portions of the shallow zone aquifer to an elevation of about 4,900 ft
am si.
Initial Response
As described above, dissolved VOCs were discovered in municipal wells SJ-3 and SJ-6 in 1979, and
the City of Albuquerque took both municipal wells out of service in 1981. The EPA and NMED
installed a replacement well, Burton 4, as required under the ROD for OU 01 in April 1987. GEA
plugged and abandoned both SJ-3 and SJ-6 wells in 1994.
Basis for Taking Action
The following sections describe the basis for taking action at the Univar and GEA OUs.
Univar Basis for Taking Action
During site characterization at the South Valley Site Edmunds Street Ground Water OU 03, the
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico AA-11 August 17, 2010 thru August 26, 2015
051339
-------
following hazardous substances were detected in ground water: acetone, carbon tetrachloride,
chloroform, 1,2-DCA, trans-1,2-DCE, 1,1-DCE, methylene chloride, PCE, TCE and 1,1,1-
trichloroethane (TCA). The ROD stated that although there were no current users for the ground
water within the plume of contamination, there is a major well field, for the City of Albuquerque
water supply, in the migration pathway of the plume. The risks were based on Maximum
Contaminant Levels (MCLs) developed under the Safe Drinking Water Act and New Mexico Water
Quality Control Commission (NMWQCC) Regulations (New Mexico Administrative Code
[NMAC]).
GEA Basis for Taking Action
At GEA, the 1988 ROD notes the presence of VOCs and metals in soil and ground water samples
collected at the Site. However, the metals analyses were not considered to be conclusive and
additional sampling during the remedial design was expected to confirm or deny the inclusion of
metals in the contaminant of concern (COC) list for OUs 05 and 06.
According to the ROD, the remedy to be implemented at the site addressed VOCs in soil and in two
distinct ground water zones later on named by convention the shallow zone and the deep zone
aquifers (note that the deep zone aquifer which includes both the intermediate and shallow zones
described in the ROD). A list of COCs was not provided in the ROD, but three COCs are listed as
of special interest due to carcinogenic effects: 1,1-DCE, isophorone, and PCE. The shallow and
deep ground water zones up to 160 ft bgs required remediation based on risk calculations.
Requirements and standards specified in the NMWQCC Regulations had a prominent role in the
listing of this site.
VOCs were detected in the unsaturated portion of the shallow zone aquifer (also known as the
vadose zone). As part of the site characterization, soil cleanup levels (i.e. action levels) were
derived for the VOCs that were detected using two EPA approved methods. Though concentrations
of VOCs detected in the soil did not pose a health threat, VOCs could be mobilized from the
unsaturated portion to the saturated portion of the shallow zone aquifer.
REMEDIAL ACTIONS
Remedy Selection
The following sections present information on the remedies implemented at the Univar and GEA
OUs.
Univar Selected Remedy
Two RODs were issued for Univar: one for the ground water (OU 03-1988) and one for the vadose
zone (OU 04-1989). The ROD for OU 04 required no further action for the Edmunds Street source
control (vadose zone). However, vadose zone treatment was initiated later by Univar to increase the
efficiency of the extraction system for ground water, OU 03. This was accomplished through the
installation of a vapor extraction system (VES) which was tested in 1999.
As stated in the 1988 ground water ROD, the RA selected for OU 03 consisted of the containment
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review

051340
-------
and collection of the contaminated ground water through the use of an extraction well system,
treatment of the recovered ground water through packed tower aeration, and return of the treated
water to the aquifer through infiltration galleries. The ROD also stated that the selected remedy
would include monitoring of ground water, treated water, and ambient air to ensure the
effectiveness of the remedy. The selected RA was implemented in accordance with the 1990
Consent Decree and a detailed description of the proposed design and operational information
included in the Remedial Action Plan (RAP) and the Remedial Design Report. A ground water
monitoring plan to determine the effectiveness of the RAs also was included in the RAP.
In accordance with the terms established in the OU 03 1988 ROD and 1990 Consent Decree, the
RAP recovery wells were installed in 1989 and the treatment unit was constructed during the first
quarter of 1990. A pilot program was conducted during the third quarter of 1990 and the treatment
system stabilized and was fully operational by the end of 1990.
GEA Selected Remedies
OUs 05 and 06 were collectively covered in the "Plant 83 OU ROD" of 1988. This ROD required
the following:
• OU -5 - Further characterization of the lateral extent of VOCs in the unsaturated portion of
the Shallow Zone Aquifer, and the lateral extent of VOCs in ground water through the
installation of additional monitoring wells;
• OU 05 - Extract of VOC soil vapors from the surface down to the water table in areas known
as Hazardous Waste Storage Areas 1, 3, and 4, in the north end of North Plant 83 Area and
south end of South Plant 83 Area. Treatment of the extracted air via vapor-phase activated
carbon;
• OU 05 - Extraction and treatment of ground water in the zone above the clay aquitard to a
depth of approximately 30 ft bgs via liquid-phase activated carbon; continue treatment until
the levels of contamination fall below state and federal regulatory standards; and
• OU 06 - Extract and treat the ground water to a depth of about 160 ft bgs via air stripping
and liquid-phase activated carbon; continue treatment until the levels of contamination fall
below state and federal regulatory standards.

Remedy Implementation
Univar Remedy Implementation
Although the RODs for Univar OU 03 only required the implementation of a ground water
remedy, the PRP enhanced effectiveness of the ground water remediation system through the
installation of a vapor extraction system (VES) at OU 04. The implementation of both systems is
presented in the following sections. The original design of the recovery well system was based on
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico AA-15 August 17,2010 thru August 26, 2015
051343
-------
modeling of different ground water remediation scenarios. Ground water extraction wells RW-
01, RW-02, RW-03, and RW-04 were installed in October and November 1989 at the locations
shown on Figure 2. These recovery wells were completed at depths of 155, 166, 180, and 200 ft
bgs, respectively, in the intermediate aquifer.
The installation of the water conveyance lines, electrical lines, treatment unit, and infiltration
gallery was completed by January 1990. The ground water treatment unit utilizes the aeration
treatment method to remove the site-related VOCs from the ground water influent. Once the
ground water is processed through the treatment unit, the treated effluent is discharged to an on-
site infiltration gallery located immediately west of the treatment unit building. The infiltration
gallery was originally designed using a single horizontal perforated pipe in a gravel envelope and
has since been modified to include a second horizontal perforated pipe in a gravel envelope. Both
systems worked concurrently.
The operating requirements for the remedial system were identified during development of the
applicable or relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) as part of the remedial investigation
and feasibility study. The cleanup objective for the ground water impacted by site-related VOCs
is defined as the EPA's MCL and NMWQCC standards. In addition, the ground water and air
discharges from the treatment unit are to meet the ground water discharge criteria specified by the
NMWQCC and the air discharge criteria specified by the Albuquerque Environmental Health
Department.
Approximately 850 million gallons of ground water were treated from 4 June 1990 to 30 April
2006. The ground water remedial system was shut off on April 30, 2006. Compliance monitoring
for VOCs was completed on November 2013. Ground water monitoring continues for 1,4-dioxane.
The VES was installed to address contamination in the vadose zone (OU 04), the Edmunds Street
Source Control) and to enhance the removal of VOCs from the ground water, although it was not
required by the ROD. It consists of a self-contained extraction blower, vapor-liquid separator
(knockout pot) and associated controls, valves and piping. System details are provided in the Third
Five Year Review (FYR) for Univar. The system had a maximum throughput of approximately 450
standard cubic ft per minute. The blower was a 15-horsepower, rotary-lobe blower equipped with a
variable speed drive. The system was housed within a wheel-mounted and locked trailer positioned
in the southeast corner of the Univar property. Further details on the testing and operation of this
system are provided in the Third FYR report for Univar. The VES was shut down in September
2006.
GEA Remedy Implementation
The following sections discuss the implementation of the remedies for OUs 05 and 06, the Shallow
and Deep Zone Aquifers.
Shallow Zone Aquifer Remedy Implementation
The shallow zone ground water remediation system included 30 monitoring wells, 8 extraction
wells, one injection well, and a ground water treatment system. Figure 4 illustrates the location of
the shallow zone ground water remediation system wells and the treatment plant building.
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico AA-16 August 17,2010 thru August 26, 2015
051344
-------
Until early 2000, the shallow zone ground water remediation system consisted of 7 extraction wells
to remove the perched ground water from the shallow zone aquifer. To improve the efficiency of
the shallow zone ground water remediation system and with EPA approval, GEA installed an
additional extraction well (SEW-11) to the network near monitoring well P83-03S. Extraction well
SEW-11 became operational February 2000. As part of improving the efficiency, GEA also
installed an injection well (SIW-01) near the Shallow Zone treatment plant building. Injection well
SIW-01 has been operational since May 2000.
The shallow zone ground water remediation system works by extracting ground water from 8
extraction wells (SEW-01, SEW-02, SEW-03, SEW-04, SEW-05, SEW-06, SEW-10, and SEW-
11). The extracted ground water is conveyed through a dual-contained pipe to the treatment system
and is treated using liquid-phase granulated activated carbon to adsorb the VOCs. Following
treatment, the ground water is then discharged. The effectiveness of the system is evaluated by
periodically sampling the treated water to ensure compliance with ARARs, and also by collecting
ground water from extraction and monitoring wells and comparing the data to ARARs.
From the start of the system on May 16, 1994, until October 1997, treated water was discharged to
three evaporative cooling towers and used as process makeup water for GEA's North Plant 83, prior
to discharge to the City of Albuquerque sewer system. However, GEA removed the North Plant 83
from service and treated ground water was no longer discharged to the cooling towers. From
October 1997 to May 2000, the treated ground water was collected in an effluent holding tank inside
the treatment plant building and then was transported via pickup truck to the deep zone ground
water treatment plant located about one mile away. This treated water was processed in the deep
zone treatment plant and discharged to the deep zone aquifer via the existing injection well network.
Because the ground water has already been treated, no special transport license was required. In
January 2000, the shallow zone ground water treatment system was expanded to include a new
extraction well (SEW-11), and a shallow injection well (SIW-01). Construction was completed
February 6, 2000 and SEW-11 was brought on line on February 9, 2000. Injection well SIW-01
was brought online May 2, 2000. Since May 2, 2000, all treated shallow zone waters are discharged
to SIW-01. Injection well SIW-01 is operated pursuant to requirements of the Discharge Plan
Renewal Ground Water Discharge Permit for the Deep Zone Ground Water Remediation System
(Permit No. DP-1065 - Dated April 1, 2001, last renewed on September 12, 2012).
Deep Zone Aquifer Remedy Implementation
The deep zone aquifer is considered to be the aquifer encountered at the site below an elevation of
4,900 ft amsl. In the 1988 OU 06 ROD, this aquifer is further subdivided for purposes of reference
into the intermediate and the deep zones. Ground water is encountered at an elevation proximate to
4,900 ft amsl which corresponds to depths of approximately 49-115 ft bgs. The deep zone ground
water remediation system remediates ground water generally from elevation 4,840 ft amsl to below
4,600 ft amsl. Both OU 02 and OU 06 are located within this aquifer.
The deep zone ground water remediation system includes monitoring wells, extraction wells,
injection wells, and a ground water treatment system that removes the VOCs from the extracted
ground water to levels below the ARARs. There are 4 extraction wells, 12 injection wells, and 79

-------
ground water quality monitoring well points (note that the Westbay wells [WB] have multiple
sample ports). Figure 5 illustrates the location of the wells and the treatment plant building.
The deep zone ground water remediation system operates by extracting ground water from 4 large
diameter extraction wells, and conveys this ground water via dual-contained pipe to the treatment
system located on the northwest intersection of Woodward Road and the AMAFCA South
Diversion Channel. Dual-contained pipe is a pipe located within a larger pipe that mitigates the
potential for a leak to be released to the subsurface. The extracted ground water is brought into the
treatment plant via separate pipelines and is then combined in the influent tank. A linear phosphate
(AquaMag™) is added to the water to prevent scaling of minerals during treatment and injection.
AquaMag™ is approved for use in drinking water and drinking water supply aquifers.
From the influent tank, the ground water is then pumped through two air-stripping towers where the
VOCs are removed. This water then flows through two granulated activated carbon vessels for
redundant removal of residual VOCs and is then piped into a single effluent holding tank. From the
effluent tank, the treated water is piped through a filter system to remove particles, and then it is
conveyed via a single-contained pipe to 12 injection wells where it is returned to the deep zone
aquifer at about the same elevation where it was removed.
Carbon dioxide is added to the treated water just after the filter system to lower the pH of the water.
Monitoring wells are used to monitor the progress of the remediation in both the horizontal and
vertical extent within and outside of the plume boundary.
In addition to the treatment of the ground water for remediation purposes, a potable water treatment
system was built inside the deep zone ground water remediation system treatment plant. A portion
of the treated water from the effluent tank is diverted to provide a potable water supply for the
facilities at the treatment plant. The quantity of water diverted for this purpose is monitored, and a
record of this is provided to the State Engineer's Office once per month.
A complete description of this system is provided in the 100 Percent Design Report, Deep Zone
Ground Water Remediation System, Plant 83/General Electric OU, South Valley Superfund Site,
Albuquerque, New Mexico (Canonie 1995). During the course of operating and maintaining the
deep zone ground water remediation system, GEA monitors and evaluates data from the treatment
plant equipment, extraction wells, injection wells, and monitoring wells.
System Operation/Operation and Maintenance
Univar Remedy Operation and Maintenance
The ground water treatment system for OU 03 began operation June 4, 1990. Long-term Operations
and Maintenance (O&M) of the remedial system has been conducted since completion of the system
startup program in January 1991 through November 2006. All routine O&M of the remedial system
was performed as specified in the RAP. The combined remedial system includes the recovery wells,
ground water treatment unit, infiltration gallery, VES, and associated equipment.
Monitoring of the ground water remedial system during the sixteenth year of operation (June 1, 2005
through May 31, 2006) was conducted to assess the overall effectiveness of the treatment unit in
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review

-------
achieving the discharge criteria as specified in RAP. Ground water remedial system monitoring
included collecting samples from the treatment unit influent and effluent streams and from the
individual recovery wells in April 2006 and continuously recording the daily influent flow rate and total
amount of water treated. The samples collected from the treatment unit influent and effluent and the
individual recovery wells in April 2006 were submitted for VOCs analysis. The treatment unit influent
sample and its duplicate were also submitted to be analyzed for 1,4-dioxane, as verbally requested by
the EPA during a telephone call with Univar on March 23, 2006. The constituents analyzed during
the annual 2006 monitoring program are summarized in Table 2 of the 2006 Annual Report.
In August 2005, two deeper monitoring wells were installed: GM-27 and GM-28 (see Figure 3 for
locations of these wells). The purpose of installing monitoring well GM-28 to a depth of 236 ft bgs was
to determine if any contamination has migrated below a depth of approximately 180 ft bgs.
On September 7, 2006, ARCADIS submitted on behalf of Univar a work plan for optimization of the
future remedial activities based on the fact that only PCE was exceeding the MCL of 5 [j,g/L with a
maximum concentration of 12 [j,g/L and the remedial system had reached an asymptotic recovery of
less than 1 pound per year. Optimization was agreed upon by EPA and consisted of shutting down
the ground water remediation system and the VES the week of October 30, 2006, the VES was shut
down on 29 September 2006 and the ground water system on 3 November 2006. A threshold value
of 50 percent increase in PCE concentrations from the April 2005 sampling event or 5 |_ig/L,
whichever is greater, was going to be used to determine if the system needs to be turned back on.
During the same timeframe, an Explanation of Significant Difference (ESD) was issued by EPA,
2006, changing the cleanup goal for PCE to the MCL of 5 (J,g/L.
On December 5, 2007, approximately a year after the pilot test program for optimization was been
implemented, discussions regarding the optimization plan took place between EPA, Univar, and
ARCADIS resulting in the revision of RAs for Univar which was approved by EPA and NMED on
January 30, 2008. The revisions consisted of keeping the systems turned off; performance of
semiannual (April and October) depth to ground water measurements in all site wells and ground
water samples collected from monitoring wells GM-02, 1 IS, 13, 21, and 27 for analysis of VOCs.
If the concentrations in samples collected from these monitoring wells fell below the ARARs during
the twice a year sampling, the sampling frequency was to be increased to quarterly - to meet the
NMED requirement for completion of abatement and demonstration of eight clean quarters for
ground water monitoring. If the concentrations are still below the ARARs after eight consecutive
quarterly events, EPA and NMED will close out the OU 03 per the ROD. If the concentrations in
the monitoring wells exceed the threshold criteria, the EPA and NMED will be notified and a
revised monitoring/treatment plan will be developed at that time. In addition, ground water samples
will be collected from monitoring wells GM-14D, 14S, 15D, 15S for VOC analysis. To satisfy a
recommendation from the previous Third FYR, ground water samples are collected annually from
monitoring wells GM-02, GM-1 IS, GM-13, GM-21, and GM-27 and from monitoring wells GM-
14D, GM-14S, GM-15D, and GM-15S for 1,4-dioxane analysis using EPA Method 8270.
In November 2009, EPA notified Univar that they are required to sample for 1,4-dioxane, a
probable human carcinogen, as part of the ground water monitoring program pursuant to Section
XVI(D) of the Univar Consent Decree. Univar was to evaluate the occurrence of 1,4-dioxane and
determine if it poses a threat to human health and the environment. EPA anticipated a response to
this requirement to include a plan and corresponding schedule to perform the evaluation and make
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review

recommendations for further action. On January 7, 2010, on behalf of Univar, ARCADIS
responded to EPA's request for sampling wells for 1,4-dioxane, proposing to sample 24 wells (GM-

GEA Operation and Maintenance
O&M activities for each of the systems at the GEA facility are presented below.
Shallow Zone Aquifer Remediation System O&M
As of June 2005, the only VOCs detected above ARARs in the saturated portion of the shallow zone
aquifer were: 1,1-DCA (monitoring well SW-08) and 1,1-DCE (monitoring well SMW-10). All
other VOCs in the shallow zone aquifer ground water had been remediated to levels below their
respective ARARs, or were not detected at all in any of the monitoring wells and extraction wells.
On October 18 2006, as a follow-up to a meeting with EPA, Aestus sent a letter to EPA regarding
changes to the October 2006 sampling. These changes addressed mostly deep zone wells, but also
shallow zone monitoring wells P83-03S, SMW-10, and SW-08. According to this letter, these wells
were to be the only monitoring wells to be sampled during the October event as water quality data
from all other monitoring wells have been below ARARs for at least 8 consecutive sample events.
All extraction wells were to be sampled during the October sample event. In October, EPA
approved these changes and monitoring Wells P83-03S and SMW-10 and extraction wells SEW-01
through SEW-06, and SEW-11 are designated for water quality monitoring near the North Plant 83
building, while monitoring well SW-08 and extraction well SEW-10 are designated for water
quality monitoring near the South Former Air Force Plant 83 buildings.
Almost concurrent with the changes to ground water monitoring requirements, EPA issued an ESD
to document the formal adoption of the MCL of 5.0 [j,g/L as the site cleanup goal for PCE in ground
water. Prior to promulgation of the MCL value for PCE in 1992, the cleanup goal for PCE was
based on the NMWQCC Regulations ground water standard of 20 (J,g/L. No other significant
differences exist for the remedy selected in the 30 September 1988 ROD. This ESD has not
resulted in a change in the design or operation of the remediation systems as the existing
remediation systems were designed to remediate PCE in ground water to 5.0 (J,g/L.
In September 2007, Axis made a request to EPA on behalf of GEA to terminate North Plant 83
Operations of the shallow zone ground water remediation system, based on the fact that the ground
water remediation in the former North Plant 83 Area has reached asymptotic conditions and VOCs
removal had been less than 0.4 grams over the last 6 months and about 1 gram had been removed
over a 3-year period. Moreover, VOCs in ground water had been below ARARs for at least 2 years
in all monitoring and extraction wells in the former North Plant 83 Area, indicating that ground
water extraction was no longer required in the North Plant 83 Area to meet ARARs and the
objectives of the ROD.
Following GEA's 2007 request, EPA and NMED approved quarterly sampling of two compliance
wells in the North Plant 83 Area (P83-03S and SMW-10) for eight consecutive quarters and all

-------
monitoring wells and extraction wells associated with the North Plant 83 portion of the shallow
zone ground water remediation system to provide information on potential rebound of VOCs in
these wells. In addition, EPA and NMED requested that measurement of water levels in ground
water monitoring wells associated with the North Plant 83 portion of the shallow zone ground water
remediation system be performed on a quarterly basis, prior to the collection of water quality
samples. Moreover, as a contingency, any ARAR exceedances would be reported to EPA, wells
will be resampled, and upon confirmation, GEA will restart the extraction wells in the former North
Plant 83 Area.
The North Plant 83 portion of the shallow zone ground water remediation system was shut off on
October 31, 2007. Ground water extraction continued in the South Plant 83 from extraction well
SEW-10 and treatment continued through the shallow zone treatment plant. Treated ground water
was still discharged to injection well SIW-01.
On October 21, 2008, Axis submitted the 2008 Revision of the Performance and Compliance
Monitoring Plan. This plan covered both the shallow and deep aquifers, and made changes
regarding standard operating procedures.
On October 17, 2008, a sample collected from extraction well SEW-5 in the former North Plant 83
Area had a single detection of 1,1-DCE at 5.9 |ig/L above its ARAR of 5.0 [j,g/L and consistent with
the contingency plan, the pump from SEW-05 was brought into service on November 24, 2008.
Further discussions took place between EPA and GEA, with the following actions agreed to:
• Obtain water levels from SEW-10 and SW-08 on April 13, 2009;
• SEW-10 will be temporarily shut off on April 13, 2009;
• Obtain water levels from SEW-10 and SW-08 on April 20, 2009; and
• Sample SW-08 and SEW-10 on April 20, 2009; compare water levels and ground water
quality data.
As of June 2009, ground water extraction and treatment consisted of only one extraction well in the
former North Plant 83 Area (SEW-05) and one extraction well in the South Plant 83 Area (SEW-
10).
On November 10, 2009, on behalf of GEA, Axis requested authorization to implement the Closure
Plan submitted in the letter dated October 8, 2009. This request was based on sampling results for
wells in the shallow zone. Representatives from EPA and NMED met with GEA on January 27,
2010 to discuss the closure plan for the off-site area of the North Plant 83 shallow zone. EPA and
NMED approved the closure of wells and conveyance system in their letter dated March 4, 2010.
On June 1, 2010 the GEA contractor flushed the buried high-density polyethylene conveyance
pipelines; the pipeline was abandoned in place. An electrical contractor removed the electrical
service wire and fixtures from electrical and well vaults. The drilling contractor abandoned the off-
site wells on June 1 through June 3, 2010. The wells plugged and abandoned are as follows: SEW-

SMW-09, SMW-11 through SMW-14, SMW-18, SW-06, and SW-07. Consistent with the City of
Albuquerque specifications, the vaults were abandoned and the streets and sidewalks were repaired.
Since the monitoring and extraction well data from the North Plant 83 indicated all VOCs below
ARARs for at least eight consecutive quarters, EPA approved closure of all wells on
Deep Zone Aquifer Remediation System O&M
The ground water monitoring for OU 02, the SJ-06 well, is covered under the monitoring
requirements performed for the OU 06, the Deep Zone Aquifer remediation system. Ground water
sampled as part of the SJ-6 ROD for OU 02 is conducted only during the last quarter of each annual
review period (i.e., April through June).
During the review period, the treatment plant was operational 24 hours per day except for approved
maintenance activities and limited unplanned stoppages and downtime necessary to implement
system optimization measures described below.
The following changes took place in the monitoring network for the deep zone during the July 1,
2006, and June 30, 2007:
• Wells SJ6-10D, SJ6-02D, P83-10D, and P83-08D no longer be sampled to monitor water
quality, but will be used to measure ground water elevations;
• Well HL-02 no longer sampled for water quality during the October event, but will be
sampled annually during the April sampling event;
• Wells associated with P83-23, P83-24, P83-27, and P83-28 clusters no longer sampled for
water quality during the October event, but will be sampled annually during the April
sampling event; and
• Wells associated with the P83-31 cluster will only be used for measuring ground water
elevations and not for monitoring ground water quality.
On April 27, 2007, wells P83-08D and P83-08M were plugged and abandoned due to the new
owner of Duke City Distributing planning to further develop the property at the corner of
Woodward and Broadway and the fact that these wells were no longer critical to the remediation
system.
In 2007, there were several thefts of the power cables that provided power to the extraction well
EW-001. The thefts resulted in downtime and GEA installed anti-theft devices at the electrical
vaults to deter future thefts.
In April 2008, Axis on behalf of GEA submitted a letter to EPA for the optimization for the deep
zone aquifer treatment system based on results of ground water flow modeling. As a consequence
of the optimization effort, extraction Well EW-003 was plugged and abandoned and was replaced

by EW-003R; and injection wells IW-637 and IW-638 were plugged and abandoned and replaced
by wells IW-637R and IW-638R, located south and east of the old wells. IW-632 was also plugged
and abandoned. The deep zone treatment plant control system was modified to reflect these
changes to record ground water flow from these new wells.
The following deep zone remediation maintenance was completed during the Fifth FYR (2010-
2015) reporting years:
• Replacing pumps and motors in extraction wells EW-001 (June 2011) and EW-002 (August
2010),
• Rehabilitating injection wells IW-637R, IW-638R, IW-642 (October 2010),IW-641
(November 2010),
• Installing new injection well IW-635R (December 2010),
• Replace pump and motor in extraction well EW-003R (January 2012),
• Replaced air compressor #1 (January 2012),
• Replaced seals/bearings in air stripper effluent pumps P-211 and P-212 (March 2012),
• Replaced pump and motor in extraction well-004 with a larger capacity pump (October
2012),
• Replaced pump motor and electrical wire and components in extraction well EW-003R with
a larger capacity pump (November 2012),
• Extraction well EW-004 rehabilitation included brushing entire well casing, removing silt
via air-lifting from the bottom of the well, then acid-jetting the screen interval (October
2012),
• Conduct Infrared Assessment on the Programmable Logic Control (PLC), the main
disconnect, extraction pumps, air stripper feed pump motors, blower motors, and injection
pump motors (September 2013),
• Replace PLC main electrical breaker (October 2013),
• Replace flow meters in IW-635R, IW-637R, IW-638R Iw-641, Iw-642 (January 2014),
• Install redundant high water level probes in well vaults,
• Extraction well EW-003R motor suffered a complete failure from an electrical overload
(December 2014),
• Replace existing PLC system and associated programming due to persistent problems and
system failures (January 2015).

Survey Questions
1. What is your general impression of the work conducted at the South Valley Superfund Site?
The work has been conducted in coordination with NMED regulatory oversight of the adjacent bulk
fuel terminals according to EPA's Non-interference Compliance Order andNMED's Hydrocarbon
Remediation Agreement (HRA). The former Texaco Bulk Terminal completed all cleanup activities
and received a HRA closure in 2014. The Chevron Bulk Terminal was bought by Vicenergy in 2011
and Chevron kept the environmental responsibilities. Soil and ground water remediation was
completed in 2013-2014for all contaminant issues off-site and wells and remediation systems were
properly closed. Petroleum hydrocarbon contamination remains in the shallow perched zone on-site.
2. What effects have site cleanup operation efforts had on the surrounding?
SVSS cleanup operation efforts have had a positive effect on the surrounding community and property
allowing for property transactions to occur without environmental liability concerns.
3. Are you aware of any community concerns regarding the South Valley Superfund Site? If so,
please give details.
The San Jose Neighborhood Association President, Ester Abeyta, continues to follow soil and ground
water remediation efforts in the area but has not expressed negative concerns within the last few
years.
4. Are you aware of any complaints, incidents, or activities at the site in the past five years such as
vandalism, trespassing, or emergency responses from local authorities? If so, please provide details.
No I am not. The area has traditionally been an illegal solid waste dumping ground but I am not
aware of any major incidents within the last 5 years.
5. Do you feel well informed about the site's activities and progress? If not, please indicate how you
would like to be informed about site activities - for example by e-mail, regular mail, fact sheets,
meetings, etc.
Yes I am informed
6. Do you have any comments, suggestions, or recommendations regarding the site's management or
operation?
None at this time.

Survey Questions
1. What is your overall impression of the project? (general sentiment) The project continues to progress
toward completion. Three Operable Units (OUs 1, 2, and 5) are already complete, and OU 6 is on
track to achieving its goals of reaching ARARs in the ground water. OUs 2, 5, and 6 are managed by
GE.
2. Is the remedy functioning as expected? How well is the remedy performing?
OU 5 (Shallow Ground water) functioned as designed and all remediation goals were met.
Accordingly, operations and monitoring for OU 5 were terminated August 2012.
OU 6 (Deep Ground water) is functioning as designed. Ground water level and quality data collected
to date demonstrates capture, containment, treatment, and reinjection of treated water back to the
aquifer. To date, about 6.7 billion gallons of ground water have been extracted, treated to non-detect
levels, and returned to the aquifer.
3. What does the monitoring data show? Are there any trends that show contaminant levels are
decreasing?
For OU 5 (Shallow Ground water), ground water data indicated that the remediation goals were met,
and as a result, operations and monitoring were terminated and the system was closed. Field work was
terminated in August 2012.
For OU 6 (Deep Ground water), nearly all of the ground water data indicate levels of dissolved VOCs
in ground water are decreasing. Only one ground water sample port indicates that dissolved VOCs in
ground water are not decreasing. Currently, ground water in two small areas within the aquifer has
VOCs above ARARs and two new extraction wells are being installed to address these areas. The new
extraction wells should be in service by the end of Q1 2015.
4. Is there a continuous on-site O&M presence? If so, please describe staff and activities. If there is not a
continuous on-site presence, describe staff and frequency of site inspections and activities.
Two engineers attended to OU 5 (Shallow Ground water), during normal work hours when the system
was operating. However, since August 2012, field activities are no longer required for OU 5.
The OU 6 (Deep Ground water) remediation system operates on a continuous basis (i.e. 24/7/365).
Two engineers currently work at the OU 6 remediation system during normal working hours, five days a

week. When the operators are not physically at the site, an automated system will alert them via
telephone call if the remediation system requires attention. When necessary, one of the operators will
return to the site and attend to the remediation system as required outside of normal work hours
(evenings and weekends).
5. Have there been any significant changes in the O&M requirements, maintenance schedules, or
sampling routines in the last five years? If so, do they affect the protectiveness or effectiveness of the
remedy? Please describe changes and impacts.
OU 5 (Shallow Ground water) met all remediation goals, and as a result all field work was terminated
August 2012.
The Deep Zone Ground water Remediation System has been and continues to be protective of human
health and the environment. Minor modifications to the ground water sample program have been made
for efficiency and after discussions with the regulatory agencies. Based on ground water data, the
ground water extraction and injection systems have been modified to improve the efficiency of the
overall system. Currently, two new extraction wells and a replacement injection well are being
installed and are expected to be operational by the end of Q1 2015.
6. Have there been unexpected O&M difficulties or costs at the site since the last five years? If so,
please give details.
There have not been unexpected O&M difficulties at the Deep Zone Ground water Remediation System.
7. Have there been opportunities to optimize O&M, or sampling efforts? Please describe changes and
resultant or desired cost savings or improved efficiency.
Currently, a replacement injection well and two new extraction wells are being installed and are
expected to be operational by the end of Q1 2015. This work is being conducted to more efficiently
target areas of the Deep Ground water that continue to indicate low levels of dissolved VOCs above
ARARs.
8. Do you have any comments, suggestions, or recommendations regarding the project?
No.

1. What is your overall impression of the project? (general sentiment)
Very Good. Communication open and all parties cooperative.
2. Is the remedy functioning as expected? How well is the remedy performing?
During the last 5 years, the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) remedy was completed and functioned
very well. The VOC remedial systems were turned off during the previous 5 year review and post
remediation monitoring was completed during this 5 year review period (2010-2015). The USEPA and
NMED issued a notice of completion dated 6/10/14 that acknowledged Univar had completed all of the
requirements of the Consent Decree as they relate to the Constituents of Concern in ground water with the
exception of 1,4-dioxane. The VOC remedy infrastructure and treatment system are still in place. The
remedy may be modified to treat 1,4-dioxane once the extent of impact is defined.
3. What does the monitoring data show? Are there any trends that show contaminant levels are
decreasing?
During the last 5years, the VOC remedy was completed (see above). Concentrations of 1,4-dioxane have
been detected at the site and a risk based clean up goal was established. The remedy may be modified to
treat 1,4-dioxane once the extent of impact is defined.
4. Is there a continuous on-site O&M presence? If so, please describe staff and activities. If there is not a
continuous on-site presence, describe staff and frequency of site inspections and activities.
There is not a continuous on-site O&M presence as the system is currently shut down and the
infrastructure and treatment system are still in place. Univar still operates at the facility so there are
personnel and security at the facility. Periodic ground water monitoring is still occurring at least annually
and the wells are inspected at that time. The remedy may be modified to treat 1,4-dioxane once the extent
is defined
5. Have there been any significant changes in the O&M requirements, maintenance schedules, or sampling
routines in the last five years? If so, do they affect the protectiveness or effectiveness of the remedy?
Please describe changes and impacts.
The VOC remedy is complete (see above) so there was no continued O&M or maintenance requirements
during the last 5years. The remedy may be modified to treat 1,4-dioxane once the extent is defined.
Ground water monitoring schedules have been modified over the past 5 years to account for the reduction
in VOC monitoring and monitoring of the 1,4-dioxane.
6. Have there been unexpected O&M difficulties or costs at the site since the last five years? If so, please
give details.
The only issue was a protective well cover was damaged during road grading by NMDOT on the NMDOT
property. The actual well was not damaged.
7. Have there been opportunities to optimize O&M, or sampling efforts? Please describe changes and
resultant or desired cost savings or improved efficiency.
Ground water monitoring schedules have been modified to remove the requirement for VOC monitoring
and continue to monitor for 1,4-dioxane. This had resulted in a cost savings due to the reduction in the
number of wells, frequency, and analytical methods, however, this is only temporary until such time as the
extent of 1,4-dioxane is determined and the remedy modified.
8. Do you have any comments, suggestions, or recommendations regarding the project?

Survey Questions
1. What is your general impression of the work conducted at the South Valley Superfund Site?
Some progress was made - not enough progress was achieved.
2. What effects have site cleanup operation efforts had on the surrounding?
The cleanup operation has released additional amounts of Volatile Organic Compounds into the area
through air stripping methods used at the remediation facility. It has also given the community of San
Jose a reputation of an area to locate heavy polluting industries. The community of San Jose has a stigma
of have bad water in its community.
3. Are you aware of any community concerns regarding the South Valley Superfund Site? If so, please
give details.
Our property values have reduced, if a person sells their home they have to disclose they live in a
superfund area. The water is still bad.
4. Are you aware of any complaints, incidents, or activities at the site in the past five years such as
vandalism, trespassing, or emergency responses from local authorities? If so, please provide details. N/A
5. Do you feel well informed about the site's activities and progress? If not, please indicate how you
would like to be informed about site activities - for example by e-mail, regular mail, fact sheets, meetings,
etc.
No /feel we are not being informed on any aspects of the project. My husband and I went to meetings and
even visited the remediation site with Richard Moore. We were told at a meeting two years, the project
was winding down and all GE needed to do was get the water to safe drinking standards. The
representative from GE had a callousness attitude toward the people affected by the pollution spills that
came from GE and the other sites responsible for poisoning our ground water. It was like you 're going to
get federal safe drinking water standards and we do not care to make the water any better than that. We
need to be informed and given quality information by many media options.
6. Do you have any comments, suggestions, or recommendations regarding the site's management or
operation?
South Valley Superfund Site Fifth Five Year Review
Albuquerque, New Mexico AD-10 August 17,2010 thru August 26, 2015

-------
Many residents of the San Jose neighborhood have been concerned about the potential placement of the
Sunport Extension in regards to how this highway is slated to run right through the area of many of the
monitoring wells of the Superfund Site. During our Last visit to a public meeting in February of 2013
around the South Valley SuperfUnd site, all parties involved in the cleanup kept emphasizing the
importance of the cleanup and finishing the remediation as soon as possible.
These points on the timeliness of the cleanup are also of upmost importance to San Jose residents and
now we are wondering what the impact on the cleanup will be with the Sunport Extension designed to run
right through the remediation site. We have read that many of the monitoring wells will be displaced to
make room for this highway extension. Our concern with these wells being removed is that the water that
is being tested is now going to be taken from another location and could provide different and not as
reliable water testing data on how much the water is really being remediated at the South Valley
Superfund site.
Community members and partners in the cleanup process need to have as reliable of data as possible in
order to ensure that our water is cleaned up effectively. Many community members have not been in favor
of this highway extension, yet they are in favor of getting the South Valley Superfund site cleaned up
without any further delay. Thus we want to recommend that the Sunport Extension not be built in this
area, and for it to not be able to impact the operations of this site and its clean up. The remediation of
this site is a higher priority than allowing a highway extension to be built in the area. We would also like
to have a response from the EPA and other affiliated parties of this site on how they plan on addressing
the impacts from the Sunport Extension.
How EPA and NMED is going to hand out Ready for Reuse determination and/or letter of assurance of
landowner liability protection from the South Valley Superfund site to Bernalillo County Public Works
and/or land owners who properties are now designated as brownfieldproperties. Liability protection
from the geographic area of the South Valley Superfund site will give land owners the financial
opportunity to redevelopment and restoration their land through EPA's Brownfield programs.
While the residents of San Jose who have suffered for decades with health disparities from the
contamination of their ground water and air from polluting industries will not receive the same extended
treatment of the land owners of undeveloped land within the geographic area of the South Valley
Superfund site.
Revitalization of the community of San Jose should be a priority of EPA, NMED and GE. The residents of
San Jose did not create the situation that we are in. Many people have benefited from industries in San
Jose, but while others enjoy the benefits the residents of San Jose pay the price.
Our water should be restored back to its original pristine state before our water was contaminated not
just to GE and EPA drinking water standards.
