INTRODUCTION

A site reconnaissance was conducted at the Hunterstown RoadSite, Straban Township, Pennsylvania on October 6, 1986. Theparticipants included the following: *

James S. Whang (Site Manager, REM III)Kenning Tsaur (Chemical Engineer, REM III)

The Hunterstown Road Site consisted of one disposal area fordrum storage and burial and a lagoon where waste materials weredumped. Waste materials were discarded in these areas from 1970to 1979 or 1980. Among the materials disposed were industrialsolvents, paint sludges, and inert substances. Approximately600 drums were reportedly buried and/or emptied at the site.Additionally, an estimated 590 cubic yards of paint sludge weredumped. Laboratory analysis of samples from the lagoon arearevealed high levels of both organic and inorganic pollutants.Downstream surface - drainage samples from the buried drum areahave shown high levels of 1,1,1-trichloroethane and lead.Solvents have migrated off site and into the deeper confined orsemi-confined groundwater system.

OBJECTIVES

The objective of this visit was to make visual observations ofthe site to familiarize the review team with the site layout andsurroundings prior to reviewing and/or evaluating thepotentially responsible party's (PRP's) RI/FS Work Plan.

FIELD OBSERVATIONS

James S. Whang (REM III) and Kerming Tsaur (REM III) arrived atthe Hunterstown Road Site in Straban Township, Pennsylvania onOctober 6, 1986 at approximately 09:30 A.M.

The following observations and findings were made during thevisit:

o The lagoon waste area to the east of Hunterstown R.oacan be reached from Hunterstown Road tbfrorgfg, \ anunpaved access road. A garbage pile was |jp&nfl on thenorth side of the access road (Figure 1). An unlocked

gate containing a warning sign is installed at thesite entrance. The lagoon is completely chain-linkfenced, which contains a locked gate at thenortheastern corner.

o An asbestos fiber disposal pile posted with warningsigns was observed along the southern bank of thecreek across from the lagoon. Aquatic vegetationthrives in the lagoon, which was partially filledduring the visit. Judging from the topography, thelagoon is well within the flood plain of the creek andpossibly feeds into the creek, when it overflowsduring heavy rainfall. v

o The drum area to the west of Hunterstown Road islocated at the rear of the Fred Shealer residence.Because the waste materials/drums were buried andgrass was well maintained over the entire area, thesite boundaries could not be identified.

o A pond containing 2-3 feet of standing water andconstruction debris along its edges was observed southof the drum area.

o Instrument readings for the ambient air in the normalbreathing zone or near the ground surface immediatelyabove the suspected waste areas were comparable andconsistent with background levels throughout thesite. Considering the atmospheric dilution effect,background hNu readings near the ground surfaceimmediately above the suspected waste areas do notnecessarily imply the absence of volatile organicsubstances in these areas.

o No unusual odors were detected throughout the siteduring the site reconnaissance.

o The REM III Team completed the site visit atapproximately 10:50 A.M.

08:37 to 9:28 hrsSix REMCOR personnel were onsite, one backhoe withfront end loader, 2 pick-up trucks and a mini-vanSite preparation work continued and included:

o The use of magnetometric detector and visualreconnaissance in order to detect any undergroundmetallic objects (e.g. REMCOR found some drums onthe northern tributary of the creek). Threedrums were found corroded and a pail was locatednear the creek.

o Use of an OVA to detect the presence of volatileorganic substances. (Mr. Sample said that thereadings so far were background).

o Staking the perimeter of the suspected drum areademarcating the areas of exclusion zone,contamination reduction zone and the supportzone.

o Use of chain saws to cut trees for clearing theareas where test pits may be dug.

o AEPCO completed review of the REMCOR Revised SiteWork Plan and the section on Health and SafetyPlan.

Weather: Calm, Partly cloudy skies. Temperature inthe low 70's

7:30 A.M. AEPCO representative (Murali Kalavapudi) arrived onsite. REMCOR personnel were in Level B suits andstuffing excavated materials and debris into a newdrum. Most of the materials were from Pit #1.

08:00 hrs REMCOR personnel took a short break before hooking upthe pressure demand air line and organizing for theexcavation of Pit #8.

08:20 hrs Backhoe/Loader started to work on Pit #8. Pitmaterials consisted of black oil-tar like materialsand a 55-gallon drum lid. Markings on the drum lidread as "Chrysler Corporation - Chemical Division,Trenton, NJ. Further excavation brought out more omaterials. HNu readings taken at the surface level ofthe materials were 2 ppm and 4 ppm when disturbed.Further excavation of the pit brought out black liquidmaterials to the top. Intermittent whiffs of organicodors were noticed near the support zone line. HNureadings measured were background.

09:05 hrs Mr. Phiel, who claimed to be the owner of the areawhere the backhoe was working came over to the site.He asked EPA (Bill Studawel, Region III) what we weredoing on site. He did not interrupt the activity butsaid that he needed to be informed about the findings.

09:20 hrs Wind direction: Southeast at 2 mph.Black oily materials was observed to be oozing fromthe pit. Backhoe could not excavate any further sincethe liquid material would seep down and was hard toscoop up. Strong odors of organic materials werenoticed. HNu readings were still background.

10:00 hrs REMCOR removed exposed materials and 5 corroded drumsfrom the creek and placed them along the tree line

j*D iflAQOMPst of Pit #8. Regrading of excavated pits commencediMUOdlt 10:15 A.M. All pits were regraded and prepared for

restabi1ization.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

l.l Authorization

NUS Corporation performed this work under Environ nentai Protection AgencyContract No. 68-01-6699. This specific report was prepared in accordance withTechnical Directive Document No. F3-S505-06 for the Hunterstown Road Sitelocated in Adams County, Pennsylvania.

1.2 Scope of Work

NUS FIT III was tasked to conduct a hydrogeoiogic assessment of the HunterstownRoad Site based upon the available information. The purpose of this assessment isto make a determination as to whether contamination originating from the site willreach Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply Well No. 5, and, if it will, to make areasonable time estimate as to when contamination could occur. In addition, asampling of pri/ate water supply wells and Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply WellNo. 5 was conducted to establish whether groundwater currently being interceptedby these wells is contaminated.

1.3 Summary

Sampling results indicate that chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents have spread from 1

or both waste disposal areas of the Hunterstown Road Site toward GettysburgMunicipal Water Supply Well No. 5. At present, contamination has occurred in anarea extending from adjacent to the sites to the south-southwest. There are 2possibilities indicated by geologic/hydrogeoiogic review of the availableinformation. One possibility suggests that contamination is confined to its present .extent by the geologic/hydrogeoiogic conditions of the Gettysburg Formation. Theother possibility suggests that the site-specific conditions have allowedcontamination to advance and it is spreading toward Gettysburg Municipal WaterSupply Well No. 5.

2.0 BACKGROUND

2.1 Site Location

The Hunterstown Road Site is located about l/S mile north of the intersection of '-Hunterstown Road and Sheaier Road, approximately 1-1/2 miles northeast of •Gettysburg (see figure 1). Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply Well No. 5 is about1-1/4 miles southwest of the Hunterstown Road Site. It is located along a narrowaccess road off the south side of Route 30, approximately 1/3 mile west of thejunction of Hunterstown Road and Route 30 (see figure 1).

2.2 Site History

The Hunterstown 3.oad Site consisted of 2 waste disposal areas. One disposal area, :on the vvestarn side of .Hunterstown Road, was utilized for drum storage and burial.The other disposal area, east of Hunterstown Road, consisted of a lagoon where.vaste materials vere dumped. Waste materials were discarded in the areas from1970 to 1979 or 19SO, a period of 9 to 10 years. Among the materials disposed ofwere industrial solvents, paint sludges, and inert substances. Approximately 600drums were reportedly buried and/or emptied at the site. 6 Additionally, anestimated 590 cubic yards of paint sludge were dumped.

2.3 Sampling History

Chlorinate.! hydrocarbon solvents were detected in volatile organic analysis (VOA.)of samples frzxn home wells taken by Ken Maiiick, of Community EnvironmentalCon:.-)! (Ci::), in December 19S3, March 1934, and April 1984 (see appendix A).Ail r :he ho nes sampled were within approximately 3/4 of a mile of the formerwas:; diiposii sites. The analytical results are summarised below (see figures 2and 3 for locations):

richloroethylene (TCE), 1,1,1-trichioraethane (l,l,l,-TCE), 1,1-ichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene (PCE), l,2-dichlorethylene, 1,1-

dichloroethane, and chioroethane were identified.

o The highest solvent concentrations were found in the water samples of 7. veils, and all within 1/4 mile of the disposal sites (see table I and appendixA).

o Relatively low concentrations were found in 2 wells (see table 1 andappendix A).

o Very low concentrations to trace amounts were detected in 5 samples (seetable 1 and appendix A). »

o No VOA compounds were detected in 15 other wells sampled (see appendixA).

Similar analysis of well samples taken by FIT III in January 1985 also detected thepresence of chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents (see appendix 3, figures 2 and 3 forlocations).'7 Particularly noteworthy were the high concentrations of TCE, 1,1,1-TC5, 1,1-dichloroethylene, and 1,1-dichioroethane in samples from 6 wells thatpreviously registered relatively high concentrations 10 to 14 months earlier.Comparison of the analytical results of the 2 separate sampling efforts reveals thatthe concentrations are similar (see table 2).

Very'low quantitative values have not been reported in the FIT III sample results.The contract laboratory that conducted the analysis is not required to report valuesbelow confident detection limits.

Target compounds detected in inorganic samples collected by FIT III during thissa.ne sampling (see appendix 3), including those denoted as being of questionablequalitative significance, were within acceptable levels and posed no adversetoxi;oljical effects. H»

At the end of June 19S5, VOA samples of 10 private wells located alongHunterstown Road within 3/4 mile from Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply WellNo. 5 between the waste disposal areas of the site and Well No. 5 were collected byFIT III (see appendix C for results and figures 2 and 3 for locations). A VOA sampleof Well No. 5 was also collected. Analysis of these samples did not indicate thepresence of chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents.

3.0 HYDROGEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT

3.1 Geology

The Hunterstown Road Site, and the surrounding area of concern, is situated in theGettysburg Basin, an arcuate-shaped basin trending northeast from the SchuylklliRiver and southwest to northern Maryland. ° It is 1 of 6 principal basins comprisingthe Triassic Lowland Section of the Piedmont Plateau Physiographic Province. Geology of the basin is characterized by Triassic age sedimentary, rocks of theNewark Group that were later intruded by Triassic igneous bodies, ' primarilydiaoase sills and long, narrow diabase dikes. *> -> 5» s> 9

Structurally, the sedimentary rocks of the Gettysburg Basin form a north-northwestward dipping (20 to 40 degrees) homocline. Along the northern part ofthe basin, these rocks are modified by a few faults, at large angles to the strike ofthe rocks, and local folds.!' A major fault, although discontinuous, is a northernborder to much of the Gettysburg Basin.1? 5

There is /ery little site-specific information pertaining to the geology of theHunterstown Road Site. The area has been mapped as being underlain by theGettysburg Formation (see figure 3).!> Records of local wells (see groundwaterssection) confirm this.2 Lithologically, the Gettysburg Formation is described asconsisting of red shale, red, brown, and gray sandstone, and coarse quartz pebbleconglo n irate and Jinestone conglomerate.^ -> 3, ;>, 3 These rocks ire thought to

hjv-s been deposited by coalescing alluvial fans. Consequently, beds accumulatedas overlapping tabular lenses, the lateral continuity of vhich -nay extend se/eralthousa-id feet.^ The thickness of the Gettysburg Formation beneath the

H jnc^rito -/i Road Site is not known.

\ go.itiy roiling to fiat-lying topography has been produced by the erosion of therocks of the Gettysburg Formation. The slope of the land adjacent to HunterstownR.oad, south of the former waste disposal sites, is gradual and to the west and south(see figure !).'•* Land elevations from the disposal sites to Route 30 viaHunters to v A'm|a0,Ot0 0nce of approximately l-l/'-f miles, are fro.n 560 to 500feet.^ "Drainage patterns throughout this area appear to be very mature. /f

Surface ir linage is conducted by an unnamed tributary that courses northeast tosouth; i,: :.) Rock Creek.'4 Close to the intersection of Hunterstown and ShealorRoais, :-,3 v25tern branch of this tributary crosses Hunterstown Road and rurgeswith an east^n branch. The tributary then runs south-southwest and parallel tothe eastern side of Hunterstown Road for approximately 3/'4 mile before crossingthe road to the western side, continuing to flow southwest.

One-fourth mile east of Hunterstown Road, a diabase dike has been mapped (seefigure ^). The dike parallels Hunterstown Road, trending northeast to southwestfor approximately 1 mile.1' '4 Farther east, a diabase sill crops out as a rid,ge, thesurface expression of which has been affected by 2 parallel faults trendingnorthwest to southeast.1

At the margin of diabase intrusions, sedimentary rocks are reported to be alteredto some degree by heat and pressure.1 Complete metamorphism close to thecontact results in the formation of a siliceous hornfels.1 The presence of alteredGettysburg lithologies in the study area is not known; however, soils in the areahave been classified as belonging to a series that for ned fro n material weatheredfrom metamorphosed rock.3 This suggests that altered sedimentary rocks arenearby, and may, in part, underlie the area.

Fracture traces and lineaments, trending at various angles with no observablepreferred directions, have been plotted in the area (see figure '+).- These naturallinear fvjatures are interpreted as the surface expression of vertical or nearvertical fractures (i. e., joints or faults).1

The de/elopment of fracturing (that is, the number and width of openings) isconsidered to vary from bed to bed.1 The degree to which fracturing has developedis rust "i'.'<iiy dependant on the following:

o The composition and texture of the rock material composing the bed.1

o The magnitude and direction of the structural forces that acted on the bedto produce fractures.1

o The depth of the bed. Increased compression at depth tends to constrictand close fracture openings.1

Fracture development within the Gettysburg Formation has been directly relatedto permeability (i.e., with increased development there is greater permeability).1There may be only a few beds in a stratigraphic interval 100 feet thick ofGettysburg that have enough openings that are sufficiently wide enough to allow asignificant amount of water to be transmitted.1 The intervening unfractured rockbetween highly permeable beds may have little or no capacity to store or transmitgroundwater.1

The lenticular configuration of water-bearing beds and differences in fracturede/elopment have led to the Gettysburg Formation being defined as a series ofalternating tabular aquifers. Continuity of an individual water-bearing bed isestimated to be several hundred feet to as much as 3,000 feet in extent.1 Thearea! limits of beds may be due to faults and igneous intrusions, as well as pinchingout.1 '.Vatar-bearing beds within the Gettysburg Formation generally intersect thesurface within several hundred feet of a well, the distance being dependent on dip.Hydraulic connection between water-bearing beds is considered to be poor.1

Pumping data seem to indicate that the greatest permeability, and therefore thegreatest [low of groundwater, is parallel to the strike of bedding.1 There has beenlittle drawdown observed in a direction normal to strike.1

Shallow water-table conditions are also reported for the Gettysburg Formation.1These conditions may be present from a few feet to tens of feet below the groundsurface, and are considered to change gradually to confined conditions with depth.The nature of shallow water table conditions in the Hunterstown Road Site area isnot known.

3.3 Sam piling Results

TCE, l,l,L-TCE, 1,1-dichloroethyiene, and 1,1-dichioroethane, the mostconsistently detected contaminants in the Hunterstown Road Site area, arechlorinated hydrocarbon compounds. These compounds are frequently used assolvents.

Several aspects of the results of sampling to date characterize groundwatercontamination in the Hunterstown Road Site area. The areal extent of thedispersion and spreading of contamination, based on the distribution of detectedsolvents in samples, broadly extends from adjacent to the former waste disposalsites to the south-southwest. The relatively low concentrations of solvents insamples indicates that they are dissolved, and that advection is the primary processby which these solutes are transported.

*.0 CONCLUSION

4.1 Summary

Sampling results demonstrate that solvents have migrated off site and into thedeeper confined or semi-confined groundwater system. The areal outline ofdocumented solvent contamination broadly extends from adjacent to the formerwaste disposal sites to the south-southwest, toward Gettysburg Municipal WaterSupply Well No. 5. The precise extent of contamination, however, based onexisting data, cannot be determined, nor can a contamination plume be defined.

tf

*.2 Final Conclusion

Geologic/hydrogeoiogic review of the available information indicates 2 possibilitiesregarding contamination of Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply Well No. 5. Thefirst possibility assumes that the geologic/hydrogeoiogic conditions of the site areaare characteristic of those reported for the Gettysburg Formation. It suggests thatwater-bearing beds are tabular and discontinuous, hydraulic connections betweenthem are poor, and contamination would be confined to the area in which it ispresently found.

The second possibility assumes there is a continuous hydraulic connection betweenthe site and Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply Well No. 5, and thatcontamination is continuing to spread toward Well No. 5. It can be estimated thatit will take 53 years to reach well no. 5. This figure was calculated in thefollowing way:

1,400 feet - estimated distance contamination has spread from the wastedisposal areas southwest to the W. Heflin well.

13 years - period of time between the initiation of waste disposal and the firstsampling.

= 108 feet per year - the rate at which contamination has spread.

5,680 feet - estimated distance to well no. 5.103 feet per year

= 53 years

Site Name; Hunterstown Road SiteTDD No.: F3-8505-06

This estimate is a rough calculation without site-specific permeability orhydrological testing and assumes the following:

o Contamination entered, dispersed, and spread through the deepergroundwater system soon after waste disposal operations began.

o Contamination is migrating at a constant rate.

o Geologic/hydrogeoiogic conditions are uniform throughout the area ofconcern. *

o The effe of pumpage by Gettysburg Municipal Water Supply Well No. 5 isminimal.

1.3 Sit* Observations

o Well water samples were obtained from water taps. The Kauffman,Kissler, Shupe, and Wagner residences (samples A5, A6, A7, and All,respectively) were sampled from the taps of the kitchen sink. Samplesfrom the Topper, Rice, and Black residences (samples AS, A9, and A10,respectively) were taken at outside taps. A sample from 1 well of theMcDermitt Concrete Company (sample A2) was obtained from a sink tap ofa bathroom adjacent to the office; the other well was sampled from a tapin the boiler building (sample A3). The sample from Hieges MasonryContractors (sample A*0 was taken from a sink tap in the office bathroom.It was noted while sampling this location that there were paint cans andpaint brushes in the shower stall floor approximately 3 feet across from thesink.

No water treatment systems, with the exception of an ultra-violet systeminstalled by the Blacks, were reported.

o Each private well from which a sample was taken has been located on atopographic map along with the name of the residents or company and thesample identification (see appendix B).

o .Only the Kauffman's well had been sampled by the PennsylvaniaDepartment of Environmental Resources (PA DER). The analysis of themost recent sampling did not show the presence of volatile organics. Theletter of notification of these results was dated April 24, 1985. Volatileorganics were the only compounds for which analysis was made. HeigesMasonry had a sample of their well water analyzed for volatile organics byAnalytical Laboratories. The results were negative (see attached copy ofappendix C). The Shupes also had a sample of their water analyzedprivately for coliform and volatile organic contamination. Analysis byAqua Treatment Services, dated February 22, 1985, detected 0.1 ppbtrichioroethylene (TCE). This laboratories EPA certification number is 20-276. The Shupe's sample identification number is 005681. The address ofAqua Treatment Services is:

P.O. Box 133119* Hempt RoadMechanicsburg, PA 17055(717) 697-4998

o The Blacks had a sample of their water analyzed for coliformcontamination. Results from this analysis were positive, and consequentlythe Blacks had an ultraviolet system installed. .

o Generally, well owners knew very little about their wells. Mrs. Kauffmanstated that Ed Shaw of PA DER measured a water level of 25.5 feet intheir well on February 13, 1985. Home well surveys were only distributedto the Blacks, the Rices, the Toppers, and the Wagners (see appendix D),who promptly completed and returned them. The information provided islimited and may not be reliable. Apparently, John Funt, a native of thearea, had done much of the water well drilling in the vicinity ofHunterstown Road. Mr. Sites, representing McDermitt ConcreteCompany, Mrs. Kessler, and Mrs. Rice indicated that John Funt, nowdeceased, may have drilled their wells. Mr. Orville Black and Mr. Fredice also both stated in home well surveys that John Funt had drilled their
