Vancouver, BC Environmental Site Assessment Report
Underground Storage Tank September 2013
1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ALARA Environmental Health & Safety Ltd . (ALARA) was retained by 52 2(1) to
conduct a soil investigation program and provide confirmation sampling for the removal of an Underground Stora~e Tank (UST) that was located on the South side of the property at 2326 West 14t Avenue, Vancouver, BC. The investigation was conducted in conjunction with the removal of a heating oil UST on the subject site.
The purpose of the investigation was to determine if any soils in and adjacent to the UST nest are contaminated. Contaminants that were investigated in the soils on the subject site were light and heavy extractable petroleum hydrocarbons (LEPH I HEPH) This report is not designed for litigation purposes.
The site use consisted of a residential building. A cursory inspection indicated that no vegetation on the site was stressed, nor were there any large areas with hydrocarbon surface staining or odours.
ALARA Environmental obtained representative soil samples in order to assess the excavation. The sandy soil used as backfill around the UST was excavated and carefully removed from the nest and stockpiled prior to its characterization.
Soils surrounding the tank that displayed colours characteristic of prior leakage and those soils that were analysed to contain excessive hydrocarbon soil concentrations were removed and transported to a hazardous materials landfill.
Six soil samples were collected by ALARA and analysed by AGAT Laboratories for extractable petroleum hydrocarbons (Total EPH) using the British Columbia Environmental Laboratory Manual (2009 Edition) Section D: Organic Constituents and Compounds "Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (EPH) in Solids by GC/FID". PAH concentrations were not subtracted from the LEPH & HEPH.
Hydrocarbon contaminated soils from the contents of the UST nest area were removed from the site. Soil samples indicated that the soils on the walls and base at the sampling locations in the tank nest area have no further remaining hydrocarbon contamination above the Contaminated Sites Regulation (CSR) Residential and "All Sites" Standards.
As part of the owner's legal requirements, a notice for Independent Remediation must be submitted to the Director of Waste Management as outlined in section 57 of the Contaminated Sites Regulation. Appendix C contains a sample letter that is to be completed by the owner and mailed to the Ministry of Environment within 90 days after

Environmental Site Assessment Report Underground Storage Tank
September 2013
LA . !5.Z2 I
A RA Environmental Health & Safety Ltd. was retained byl to conduct a soil investigation and provide confirmation sampling for the aecommtsstoning of an underground fuel storage tank located at 2326 West 14t11 Avenue, Vancouver, BC.
The property is rectangular in shape. The subject site lies on the South side of West 14th Avenue in Vancouver, BC. A site plan is shown in Figure 1.
Hydrocarbon contaminated soils were expected and excavated from the tank nest.
The purpose of this assessment is to identify and remove accessible contamination from the UST nest area through intrusive soil sampling. The soils were analyzed for extractable petroleum hydrocarbons ( C l0-19 C 19.32). Soil contamination was determined by equating fuel oil concentrations (C1o-19 Ct9-32) to the CSR Residential Standard . This report was commissioned for non litigation purposes.

3.0 SITE INVESTIGATION
September 2013
ALARA Environmental arrived on site August 19, 21 and 23, 2013 and provided consultation for the decommissioning of the UST. Prior to the consultant's arrival on site, the tank had been cleaned , extracted and was ready for delivery to a recycling facility.
ALARA and the remediation contractor used their olfactory system for odour detection as a first stage indicator of contamination . Approximately 7.56 metric tons of soil was excavated by the contractor.
ALARA collected and submitted soil samples to AGAT Laboratories (3rd party laboratory) for analysis. In total , six soil samples were taken by ALARA Environmental from with in the tank nest to characterize soils. Samples were taken from the sides and bottom of the tank nest. Soil samples collected from within the UST nest area were to determine if any contaminated soils still exist where the tank had been located.
The tank was described as being a single walled , cylindrical , ductile iron vessel having a diameter of 36" and being 8 feet long. The top of the tank was located 3 feet below grade. Depth to the bottom of the tank was 6-7 feet. Approximately 2,441 litres of oily water was pumped out of the UST's interior and nest area during the course of the project
Contaminated soils were transported to the Sumas Environmental Landfill as seen in Appendix E. The UST was recycled by ACA Metal Recycle Ltd . as seen in Appendix F. The contents of the UST were removed by Advantage Waste Specialties Inc. pump truck as seen in Appendix G. Clean backfill was delivered to the site by Lehigh Materials as seen in Appendix H.
The site investigation indicated that sandy gravel soils began from 3.0 feet below ground elevation . Hydrocarbon contamination has no difficulties penetrating or traversing through this layer of soil. Sandy gravel is described as loose material and brown in colour. Soil samples from the nest sides were taken at 6.0 and 9.0 feet below grade. from an area that was adjacent to where the tank was previously located. The base sample was taken from a depth of 7.0 feet below grade. The site was observed to have a 1% slope to the North.

4.0 SAMPLING METHODOLOGY
September 2013
Soil samples were collected from a disposable, analytical, purpose made, sampling instrument. Care was taken to ensure that soil samples were representative of the nest with no potential of cross contamination . The field technologist was wearing rubber gloves and exchanged them after each sample was taken . Samples were collected and placed into analytical containers.
Samples delivered to the third party laboratory were delivered in a cooler, on ice, and under chain of custody protocol. Sample analysis was performed using the British Columbia Environmental Laboratory Manual (2009 Edition) Section D: Organic Constituents and Compounds "Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (EPH) in Solids by GC/FID". The method involves Hexane-Acetone Soxhlet extraction and Gas Chromatography with Flame Ionization Detection analysis (GC/FID). EPH components ranging from C10 to C19 and C19 to C32 are quantified against eicosane (n-C20). LEPH & HEPH are calculated by subtraction specified PAH's. This method is not intended to quantitate individual target compounds (i.e. PAHs)" .

QUALITY ASSURANCE AND QUALITY CONTROL (QA/QC)
Extractable Hydrocarbons (Water, Soils, Product, TPH) Quality Control Requirements Method Blank:- Minimum 1 per preparation batch of no more than 20 samples. Analyze at a frequency of one per 20 samples. Use reagent grade water (RODI) or clean sand as a blank. Blanks should be <2xRDL for waters & <RDL for soils. Method Blank Spike (LCS): For every extraction batch a Method Blank Spike consisting of a diesel/motor oil mix, is extracted and analysed. Acceptable recoveries are 50- 130% for both soils & waters. Reference Materials (RMs): NRC HS3B or RTC CRM 355-100 (TPH in Soil) or Equivalent: 1 per preparation batch of no more than 50 soil samples. 1 gram of RM is extracted and analysed. The Reference Materials must be wetted with reagent water to approximate 20% moisture prior to extraction . Acceptable recoveries are 50- 130% of the certified value Matrix spike recoveries Analyze at a frequency of one in 20 or one per batch , whichever is more frequent. Calculate the % recovery as follows: R F = [(sample+ spike)- (sample only)] x 100% [spiked amount] Acceptable recoveries are 50- 130% for both soils & waters Laboratory Duplicate: Analyze at a frequency of one in 20 or one per batch, which ever is more frequent, unless regulatory or contract requirements dictate differently. The relative percent difference for the compounds detected is calculated as follows: R F = [(sample 1)- (sample 2)] x 100% [average of 1 & 2] For water samples, if the client provides a duplicate sample, the allowed difference is< 40% when both samples have target concentration greater than 5 times the RDL. For soil samples, the allowable limit is set at < 50% when both samples have target concentration greater than 5 times the RDL. Replicates outside the limits are required to be reviewed and corrective action taken. For soil samples, the data are reviewed , but the variability in matrix and potential for in homogeneity dictates a higher acceptable % difference.
