Re: Groundwater Investigation and Groundwater Corrective.Action Plan
South Grove Avenue Properties
(206 - 280 South Grove Avenue)
Dear Mr. Moller:
ATEC Associates, Inc. (ATEC) is pleased to present this proposal for environmental
consulting services with regards to a groundwater investigation and groundwater corrective
action plan at the above-referenced property. As part of a request for specific soil cleanup
objectives to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) for 210 South Grove
Avenue and 240 South Grove Avenue, the City of Elgin stated that they will continue to
investigate the site through groundwater studies and will design and operate,an appropriate
groundwater remediation plan. This groundwater investigation and groundwater corrective
action plan does not include the installation of any additional groundwater monitoring wells
beyond the two monitoring wells already planned and budgeted at 280 South Grove Avenue.
.The costs incurred by the City of Elgin for this groundwater investigation and groundwater
corrective action plan should be reimbursable from the IEPA Leaking Underground Storage
Tank Fund.
Thank you for considering ATEC for this project. If there are questions or concerns about
the proposal or approach, we can easily meet with you. We look forward to your decision.
Sincerely,
ATEC Associates, Inc.

BACKGROUND
The City of Elgin owns property located on the west side of South Grove Avenue, south of
downtown Elgin,that has had underground storage tanks(USTs),aboveground storage tanks
(ASTs) and contaminated soil removed. These properties are:
• 206 South Grove Avenue
(4 USTs removed)
• 210 South Grove Avenue (Former D.H. Martin Site)
(3 USTs and 9 ASTs removed, 3 USTs scheduled to be removed)
• 240 South Grove Avenue
(10 USTs removed, 1 UST scheduled to be removed)
• 280 South Grove Avenue (Former Bunge Tire Site)
(5 USTs scheduled to be removed)
As part of corrective action activities at these properties, a total of three groundwater
monitoring wells (MW-1 through MW-3) have been installed at the 206 South Grove
Avenue property, five groundwater monitoring wells (MW-4 through MW-8) have been
installed at the 240 South Grove Avenue property and one groundwater monitoring well
(MWDHM-1)has been installed at the 210 South Grove Avenue property. In addition, two
monitoring wells are planned to be installed at the 280 South Grove Avenue property. A
site map showing the locations of the groundwater monitoring wells is attached. Due to the
construction of the Pavilion for Elgin Landing Development at 240 South Grove Avenue,
the removal and abandonment of three (MW-6, MW-7 and MW-8) of the five existing
monitoring wells will be necessary after the first round of sampling.
As part of a request for specific soil cleanup objectives to the Illinois Environmental
Protection Agency (IEPA) for 210 South Grove Avenue and 240 South Grove Avenue, the
City of Elgin stated that they will continue to investigate the site through groundwater
studies and will design and operate an appropriate groundwater remediation plan. It is
anticipated that all four projects can be consolidated for groundwater corrective action. This
scope of work is based upon this assumption.
Analytical results from a groundwater sampling event performed on September 3, 1993 by
ATEC Associates, Inc. (ATEC) at 206 South Grove Avenue revealed benzene
contamination in monitoring well MW-2. In monitoring wells MW-1 and MW-3, no
constituents were encountered above the practical quantitation limit (PQL).
1. _
Analytical results from a groundwater sampling event performed on March 24, 1993 by
Ainley Envirotech at 240 South Grove Avenue revealed only metals and tetrachloroethylene
detected above the PQL. Tetrachloroethylene was detected in MW-6,but below Class I and
Class II groundwater standards. Arsenic was detected above the Class I groundwater
standard in MW-4, MW-5, MW-6 and MW-8. Chromium was detected above the Class I
groundwater standard in MW4, MW-5, MW-7 and MW-8. Lead was detected above the
Class I groundwater standard in MW-4, MW-5, MW-6, MW-7 and MW-8.
Analytical results from a groundwater sampling event performed on September 30, 1993 by
ATEC at 210 South Grove Avenue reveal benzene, lead, and naphthalene above the Class
I groundwater standard.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1 - Sample Groundwater Monitoring Wells
Two groundwater sampling events will be performed by ATEC. It is important to collect
two rounds of groundwater samples for analytical purposes to verify the quality of
groundwater. Groundwater samples will be collected and analyzed from monitoring wells
MW-1 through MW-8 and MWDHM-1 for the first round of sampling. Due to the removal
and abandonment of groundwater monitoring wells MW-6, MW-7 and MW-8, groundwater
samples will be collected and analyzed from monitoring wells MW-1 through MW-5 and
MWDHM-1 for the second round. The second round of groundwater sampling will also
include the two monitoring wells to be installed at 280 South Grove Avenue (the first round
of sampling is included in the well installation proposal for the site).
Groundwater samples from MW-1 through MW-3 will be analyzed for benzene, toluene,
ethylbenzene and xylene (BTEX). Monitoring wells MW-4, MW-5 and MW-6 will be
analyzed for metals, volatile organics and semi-volatile organics. Monitoring wells MW-7
and MW-8 will be analyzed for BTEX, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PNAs) and
metals. Monitoring well MWDHM-1 will be analyzed for BTEX, PNAs and lead. The
monitoring wells at 280 South Grove Avenue will be analyzed for BTEX and PNAs.
Groundwater samples will be sent to an ATEC laboratory for analysis.
Groundwater levels will be measured from each well prior to sampling. It is assumed that
at the time of.groundwater sampling the monitoring wells will have recovered from the
dewatering from the installation of the sewer line. Water level readings measured on
January 13, 1994 indicated that the monitoring wells were less than 50% recovered.
2
Task 2 - Perform Slug Tests on Monitoring. Wells
In order to calculate rate of groundwater flow for development of a groundwater corrective
action plan,ATEC proposes to conduct slug tests on the wells. Slug tests will be performed
on monitoring wells MW-2, MW-4, MW-5, MWDHM-1 and the two monitoring wells to be
installed at 280 South Grove Avenue by ATEC.
Slug tests will be conducted in the following manner:
1) The well being tested will remain idle for at least one week prior to testing.
2) A static water level will be obtained from the well being tested, prior to lowering any
bailers or monitoring devices into the well.
3) A pressure transducer will be lowered into the well deep enough not to be disturbed
by the 5 to 10-foot slug but no deeper than 30-feet below the static water level. The
pressure transducer cable will be secured to the side of the protective well cover.
Special care will be taken to not squeeze or pinch the transducer cable, as this could
prevent accurate measurements.- The transducer cable will be connected to an In
Situ SE 1000B HERMIT Data Logger (or comparable). This data logger is capable
of precisely measuring pressure in the well during the test and translating this
information into water level readings. The HERMIT will be programmed for the
well being tested, to record all appropriate parameters such as static water level and
transducer specifications. The HERMIT will also be programmed to take water level
readings on a logarithmic schedule once the test begins. This schedule allows for
readings to be recorded very quickly in the early stages of the test and less frequently
as the test progresses.
4) _ A slug will be lowered into the well. The HERMIT will then immediately start
recording water levels. The HERMIT stores water level readings.versus time in its
memory. This information can later be outputed to a printer or a computer for
analysis. The HERMIT will be periodically accessed during the test to monitor
recovery of the water level after insertion of the slug. The test will be run long
enough to achieve 90-95% recovery to the initial static water level. When the initial
static water level is achieved, the slug will be quickly retrieved from the well. The
HERMIT will again start recording water levels. The test will be run long.enough to
achieve 90-95% recovery to the initial static water level.
S) After sufficient recovery has been achieved, the test will be stopped and the logger
will cease collecting data. The data will then output to a portable printer for a hard
copy backup of data.
3
Horizontal conductivity (KH) will be determined utilizing "Agtesolve: Aquifer Test Design
and Analysis Computer Software" (AQTESOLV) published by Geraghty & Miller, Inc.,
revision 1.14 (or equivalent or upgraded).
Task 3 - Perform Geotechnical Soil Testing
To determine soil conditions and permeability, soil samples will be collected for
geotechnical analysis. Five soil borings will be advanced for collection of.soil samples.
Each soil boring will be continuously split spoon sampled. Field boring logs will be
completed accordingly on ATEC forms. ATEC is assuming that each soil boring will be less
than ten feet deep. A shelby tube will.be advanced in the saturated zone for determination
of permeability. Soil samples will also be collected from the saturated zone for Atterberg
limits and sieve/hydrometer analysis testing. Following completion of the soil borings, a
cement/bentonite or volclay grout will be placed in the boring. The soil cuttings will remain
in the vicinity of the soil boring.
Task 4 - Submit Groundwater Corrective Action Plan
A groundwater corrective action plan will be developed by ATEC for submittal to the IEPA.
This groundwater corrective action plan will be developed to remediate the contaminants
of concern encountered in groundwater at the South Grove Avenue properties.
Various treatment options and design systems will be evaluated. This will include pump and
treat with carbon absorption,pump and treat with precipitation, and air stripping. Discharge
to the Fox River Water Reclamation. District (FRWRD) will also be evaluated. Other
options may become apparent during this evaluation. If so, they also may be evaluated for
cost-effectiveness. The cost for Task 4 is to design a complex groundwater remediation
system which may be necessary for the site. The need for 'such a system depends on site
conditions and the results of Tasks 1 through 3. Should a less complex groundwater
remediation system be adequate for groundwater remediation, the cost for this task will
significantly be reduced.
Schedule
ATEC can initiate the scope of work within two weeks of acceptance of this proposal.
