GENERAL WASTE DISCHARGE REQUIREMENTS FOR OZONE INJECTION FOR GROUNDWATER REMEDIATION AT RAINBOW TRANSPORT TANK CLEANERS PROPERTY, 21119 WILMINGTON AVENUE, CARSON, CALIFORNIA (FILE NO. 12-019, ORDER NO. R4-2007-0019, SERIES NO. 189, Cl-9820, GLOBAL ID WDR100003825)

Dear Mr. Albin:

The Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) staff has complet~d its review of your application for coverage under General Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) for the injection of ozone into shallow and intermediate water bearing zones. We have determined that the proposed discharge meets the conditions specified in Regional Board Order No. R4-2007-0019, "General Waste Discharge Requirements for Groundwater Remediation at Petroleum Hydrocarbon Fuel, Volatile Organic Compound And/Or Hexavalent Chromium Impacted Sites," adopted by this Regional Board on March 1, 2007.

The. Rainbow Transport Tank Cleaners (hereinafter Discharger) operates the site located at 21119 Wilmington Avenue in an industrialized area in the City of Carson, .california (Site).· The approximately 1 0-acre property w.as formerly used for agricultural purposes from approximately the 1920s to the 1960s. Since the early 1960s, onsite operations have consisted of the washing the exterior and interior of empty tanker trUcks. The Site is also used by various tenants to park trucks and stage vehicles.

The Site is located in the West Coast Basin within the Los Angeles Coastal Plain. Based on the Water Quality Control Plan - Los Angeles Region (Basin Plan), the water quality objectives for the West Coast Basin are 800 milligrams per liter (mg/L) for total dissolved solids (TDS), 250 mg/L for sulfate, 250 mg/L for chloride, and 1.5 mg/L for boron. The Site existing concentrations of sulfate range from 1,280 mg/L to 9,830 mg/L and chloride concentrations range from 145 mg/L to 1 , 140 mg/L.

ENVIRON will conduct a ozone injection pilot study in the Old Wash Rack (OWR) Area of the Site to evaluate the potential for in-situ ozone injection as a full-sc~le corrective measure to address volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in shallow and/or intermediate groundwater at the Site. ENVIRON will utilize ozone generated by an onsite trailer-mounted ozone sparge unit capable of producing approximately 6 pounds/day of ozone gas. Ozone gas will be mixed with compressed air and delivered to the subsurface through injection wells. The concentration of

. ozone delivered to the subsurface is expected to be approximately 6% (by weight) and will be

injected into groundwater at four well locations on a cyclic basis. Each well may inject for a programmed duration, such as 30 or 60 minutes for example, and a programmed frequency,. such as every hour or two. The programmable logic controller and solenoid valves determine which well is injected, for how long, and how often. The injection of ozone is applied in a pulsed manner 7 days per week for the duration of the approximate 3 m_onth pilot test period.

The intermediate zone injection wells (INJ-1 B and INJ-2B) will be individually turned on first to observe any influence within the shallow groundwater zone. During this startup period the air/ozone gas flow rate, injection pressure, and well head pressures will be monitored to adjust injecti.on rates and balance the ozone injected to each well. Ozone will be injected in a pulsed manner on a daily. basis as described in the previous paragraph. The intermediate injection wells (INJ-1 Band INJ-2B) will then be turned off and the groundwater conditions will be allowed to equilibrate. The shallow groundwater ozone injection wells (INJ-1A and INJ-2A) will then be individually turned on to observe any influence on. the intermediate groundwater zone. The shallow groundwater zone injection wells will also be monitored and balanced similar to the intermediate groundwater zone wells.

After the initial period of pulsed injection described above, the pulse duration (i.e., in minutes) and frequency (i.e., every hour, every two hours, etc.) for an injection cycle or pulse per well will be selected and implemented on a continuous cycle for all four injection wells seven days per week. The volumetric flow rate during ozone injection is approximately 7.6 cubic feet per minute (cfm) (i.e., 228 cubic feet per well, assuming a 30 minute pulse duration) delivered at an approximate concentration of 6% by weight. Ozone injection is. anticipated to take approximately three months, which will be followed . by post-injection monitoring lasting approximately two to four weeks. The results of the injections will be incorporated into the Corrective Measures Study (CMS) Report along with the appropriate recommendations on the applicability of in-situ ozone injection as a full-scale corrective measure for shallow and/or intermediate groundwater zones at the Site. Sho1..1ld full scale injections be recommended, a work plan will be prepared for submittal to Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and amendments may need to be made to the WDR and Monitoring and Reporting Program. ·

Enclosed are your Waste Discharge Requirements, consisting of Regional Board Order No. R4-2007-0019 (Series No. 189) and Monitoring and Reporting Progra!Tl No. Cl-9820 and Standard Provisions Applicable to Waste Discharge Requirements. The Monitoring and Reporting Program requires you to implement the monitoring program on the date you receive this Order .

1. , - Pursuant to Division 7 of the California Water- Code, this Regional Board at a public hearing -held on January 24, 2002, adopted the General Waste Discharge Requirements (WDRs) (Order_ --No. R4-2002-0030) relative to the groundwater remediation at petroleunthydrocarbon -fuel _and/or -\rolatile organic co1npou:rid impacted sites.- Subsequent to adoption bfthe i:rtitialgeneral-"' _waste discharge requir~ments (WDRs), these WDRs have been revised lo- inClude the :use of -• - 6zone as a treatment cmnpound anq the application and use of trace materials. --- '

· 2. Since then, however, at- sites throughout Los Angeles County, nionitoring and inunicipal :production wells have become polluted with dissolved hexavalent chrmriium. · Fm1n the

- Pacoinia- Sunland area in the-northeastern San Fernando Valley to the basin's rianowsin City of-Los Angeles and from the northern edge of Central Basin to Long Beach; hexavalent chromium releases have threatened or have directly impacted monitoring or municipaL supply

-wells.

3.. Table I (Attachment A)of Order R4-2007-.:.0019 includes a list ofmaterials that can be usedfo~· _--in-situ remediation purposes: Newly added remedial compounds for in-:-situ reduction are: calcium polysulfide, fenous -sulfate, sodium dithionite, and bioremediaticin agents such as niolasses, lactose, cheese whey or starch and emulsified oil have demonstrated that they_ can effe<;:tively convert hexavalent chromium to chromium III, a less- toxic and in ore stable compound. In · addition, activated persulfate (Klozur ™) for chemical oxidation has proven to be effective for the remediation of petroleum impacted sites: The revised general WDRs are to include the above to the list of materials approved for· in-situ remediation zone treatment purposes and include a brief list of tracer materials that can be utilized at sites to aid in detennination of the effectiveness of clean up material application.

M. . The Discharger shall comply with requirements contained in Section G of Order No. R4-2007-0019 "Monitoring and Reporting Requirements" in addition to the aforementioned requirements.

II. INJECTION MONITORING REQUIREMENTS

Ozone Injections -An injection pilot test will be performed at the site at four well locations. The. approximately three month pilot test will be followed by approximately two to four weeks of post-injection monitoring. The injection will contain a mixture of ozone and compressed air. The ozone will serve as a chemical oxidant for the remediation of volatile organic compounds in groundwater at the site.

The quarterly reports shall contain the following information regarding the injection activities. If there is no injection, during any reporting period, the r,eport shall so state:

1. Location Map showing ozone injection wells.

2. Written summary defining: • Depth of injection; • Estimated volume and concentration of the ozone per injection well; and • Estimated total mass of ozone injected at site.

3. Monthly visual inspection at each injection well shall be conducted to evaluate the well casing integrity. The quarterly report shall include a summary of the visual inspection. ·

Ill. GROUNDWATER MONITORING PROGRAM FOR THE REMEDIATION PROJECT

A comprehensive baseline monitoring program has been approved for the site by the California Department of Toxic Substances Control. The table in this section identifies the constituents that will be analyzed in the wells during the baseline sampling event prior to injection and subsequent groundwater monitoring events during the monitoring period for the purpose of evaluating the effectiveness of the injection as part of the pilot study. If it is determined that the injection may continue as a full-scale remedy, then the constituent Jist and frequency will. be re-evaluated.

The objective of this Monitoring and Reporting Program is to detect and evaluate impacts associated with the injection . activities. The following wells shall constitute the Monitoring and Reporting Program for wells MW-16 (A/B), MW-17 (A/B), MW-20 (A/B), · MW-23 (A/B), and MW-24 (A/B) (Figure 2 attached), where "A" represents a shallow zone screened interval and "B" represents an intermediate zone screened interval.· These sampling stations shall not be changed and any proposed change of monitoring locations shall. be identified and approved by the ·Regional Board Executive Officer (Executive
