6.0 RISK MANAGEKQfT TECHNICAL APPROACH FOR DEVELOPICVT OF PRO.IIIINARY CLEAN-UP VALUES
GOALS FOR THE FEASIBILITY STUDY ALTERNATIVES
The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act (SARA) specifies a preference
for remedies that use treatment to permanently and significantly reduce the
toxicity, mobility or volume of wastes over remedies that do not use such
treatment. "The most significant emphasis is on risk reduction through
destruction or detoxification of hazardous waste by employing treatment
technologies which reduce toxicity, mobility or volume rather than protection
achieved through prevention of exposure" (EPA Interim Guidance on Superfund
Selection of Remedy, December 24,..1966 letter from Winston Porter to Regional
Administrators and Directors).
j
Justification is required if some form of treat hazard is not included in the remedial alternatives
to reduce the source
The National Contingency Plan (NCP) /and SARA require compliance with
applicable, relevant and appropriate requirements (ARARs) if they exist and are appropriate. ARARs mNp be performance or technology-based standards (e.g., 40 CFR 264, treatment^storage and disposal regulations under RCRA) or
contaminant specific health-based standards (e.g., Safe Drinking Water Act
MCLs).
^
Remedial actions for a site must be "protective of human health and the environment. This means that the remedy meets or exceeds ARARs or healthbased levels established through a risk assessment when ARARs do not exist" (EPA, Dec. 24, 1986).
The main concept for establishment of clean-up levels (via a risk assessment approach) at Brio/Dixie is that meeting of ARARs is not appropriate for the site because:
Based on data provided in the Remedial Investigation (RI) Report the conclusion may be drawn that there is no potential for any drinking water supply being contaminated by the Brio/Dixie'site. Consequently,
6-1
RSV 0018713
RMCLs, HCLa and MCLGs (for drinking water) are not the appropriate criteria to be uaed for attainment of ARARs.
The Numerous Sand Channel Zone (NSC2) is classified as a III A Aquifer, according to the EPA classification
scheme, because it la a poor yielding zone with high to intermediate connection with surface water (Hud Gully). The N5C2 is not classified as a potential source of drinking water.
The 50 foot sand could potentially be a drinking water source, however, there is no conclusive evidence in the RI to suggest that it is contaminated at this tine.
With but a few exceptions, acceptable limits of
contaminants in soil are not given in environmental regulations but rather are typically determined on
Tsite specific basis.'
For many of the contaminants Identified in ground wate
at the Brio/Dixie site there are no fedeer$> drinking water standards or state standards.
r Ambient Air Quality Criteria (AAQC) may haavv<e to be met
as ARARs. Few AAQCs are currently specified for the indicator chemicals. It IsJewected that this ARAR
(AAQCs) will not have any infect on setting of clean-up
levels.
1
ft
Ambient Water Quality Criteria (AWQC) for protection of aquatic biota appear to be the moft Relevant ARAR for the Brio/Dixie site. The AWQC should be
attained at tme location where a developed aquatic ecological community might be impacted by site runoff or ground water seepage to tad Gully.
Attainment of ARARs (AWQC) for recreational use of receiving waters may also be necessary. Like AAQC, AWQC are unavailable for all of the chemicals of concern at the Brio/Dixie site.
In the absence of relevant ARARs, the basic premise for remediation becomes protection of the public health with appropriate exposure levels established via a risk assessment approach. The methodology appropriate for developing preliminary clean-up levels for waste in pits, contaminated soils, impoundment sludges, sediments, ground water, surface water and ambient air is described in the following sections.
6-2 RSV 0018714
6.1 CONTAMINATED SOILS. WASTE PITS AND IMPOUNDMENT SLUDGES There are no ARARs associated with contaminated soils or sediments. Consequently, the rationale for soil and sediment clean-up at firio/Dixie is based on the concept of prevention of contamination of ground water, surface water and ambient air; and the preclusion of adverse health effects associated with ingestion of soil off-site.
On-site soil ingestion is not assumed to be a plausible or frequent exposure scenario unless future use of the land differs from the current situation (i.e.t a secured industrial site).
Chemical uptake by biota and consequent possibility of contamination entering
the food chain is also unlikely.
T
6.1.1 Technical Approach 1
^
For contaminated soils, wastes in pits and impoundmeaKsludges, a conservative
approach is to calculate contaminant concentrations at specific exposure
points relative to the observed concenftations of the indicator chemicals.
Based on the water solubility of the charfcal of concern, the Organic Leachate
Model (OLH) is used to predict the concentration of the chemical in the
leachate (Federal Registet<<\July 29, 1966). For the first estimate, the
Vertical Horizontal SpreaU (VHS) model will be used (Federal Register,
November 27, f*965) to determine attenuation in the ground water. The model allows a diliij/n factor ranging from 6.3 to 32, the most likely value (using
site specific factors) would probably be between 8 and 12. The VKS Model is
usually used to predict the contaminant concentration in ground water at a
receptor well 500 feet away. For purposes of deriving the preliminary soil
decontamination level, the assumption is made that this value is also the
assumed concentration that will reach Mud Cully. Mud Gully could become a
location where ARARs may be applied. The concentration of contaminant
entering Mud Gully could be compared to, for example, ambient water quality
criteria.
The application of OLM and VHS models are described in detail in Section
6.1.2.
6-3 RSV 0018715
During Phase II of the Endangerment Assessment, a one dimensional dispersion dispersion ground water model will be used Instead of the VHS model to predict ground water contaminant concentrations entering Hud Gully.
Reduction in contaminant concentrations is expected to occur as follows:
From soil to leachate.
In ground water based on the dilution ratio between seepage into the aquifer and flow through the aquifer which includes recharge. Seepage rate would be estimated using a water balance method to come up with infiltration rate.
Attenuation in the surface water body (in which a developed aquatic ecology exists) some distance from^j the site from nixing and volatilization (based on halff life) of the volatile organic compounds.
f:
The next step is to back-calculate (for each of the 'indicator chemicals) from a health or environmental goal (e.g., aqAtic toxicity). The above developed model is used to derive a concentration^?) the soils that achieves the health or environmental goal concepfcjatlon at the receptor location. The goal is a level at which no health ccnepuence or environmental impact would result from an exposure.
6.1.2 TechniA^/ Approach 2 An alternative approach is to set soil decontamination levels based on protection of ground water. The target risk level would be the 10~** cancer risk due to absence of drinking water use. This is the highest allowed in the risk range of 10"^ to 10"** used by EPA for Superfund sites (Reconsendations for Ground Hater Remediation at the Millcreek, Pa. site, EPA letter from Winston Porter March 2*1, 1986). This approach will probably result in much lower clean-up levels than Technical Approach 1 described in Section 6.1.1.
In addition, specifying soil decontamination levels which will expose the closest down-wind off-site receptors to no more than the 10"^ cancer risk via inhalation is advised.
6-4
RSV 0018716
The procedure described in Section 6.1.1, Technical Approach i, will be followed i.e., use of the OLM model and the VHS model. The preliminary target waste clean-up levels to protect ground water to a ICT** cancer risk level have been calculated and are presented in Table 6-1.
Table 6-1 presents a range of waste clean-up levels which will achieve the protection of ground water at a 10"^ cancer risk level. The OLM model was used to estimate the amount of contaminant which will leach from the waste. The OLM is an empirical equation which was developed through application of linear regression or statistical techniques rather than modeling to a data base of known waste constituent concentrations and experimentally measured leachate concentrations.
The equation shown below: Cn = 0.00211 Cw0-678 S*37^
C. s constituent concentration in leachate (ppm) Cw = constituent concentrat^pA in waste (ppm) S - constituent solubility (ppm)
(Federal Regis^ar, July 29, 1986, p. 27062).
The OLM is uurnffdd in concert with the VHS model (Federal Register, November 27, 1985, corrected December 12, 1986) to estimate the potential for ground water contamination from the organic constituents.
According the VHS model the waste (leachate) dilution factor is dependent upon waste volume. For small volumes of waste (<475 yd3) a minimum trench length of 40 foot (12.2 m) is considered. This results in a maximum waste dilution factor of 32. The minimum dilution factor is 6.3 which is applicable to large volumes of waste (approximately 3,800 yd^).
For purposes of setting preliminary target waste clean-up levels the range of dilution factors in used (i.e. 6.3 to 32) and are presented in Table 6-1.
6-5
RSV 0018717
The VHS model predicts the maximum concentration expected to occur at a specific compliance point (a receptor at a distance at 500 feet). Table 6-1 presents the results of back-calculating from a 1 X 10"* cancer risk level via lifetime ingestion of ground water to the necessary pit waste clean-up levels
ii required to achieve the 1 X 10 cancer risk level. It should be noted that for inorganic constituents the clean-up levels noted on Table 6*1 were not determined by the OLM and VHS model method described. Preliminary clean-up levels for inorganics were determined by multiplying a health based guideline for the specific constituent (usually the RMCL) by a factor of 1000. The factor of 1000 assumes a 100 fold attenuation of the contaminant in the soil and a 10 fold dilution of the contaminant in ground water. This approach is used by the Epidemiological Studies Section of the California Department of Health Services (The California Site Mitigation Decision Tree Jjtfnual, May 1986). 'Cadmium and hexavalent chromium are not considered to be carcinogens via the drinking water route.
The observed values noted on Table 6-1 are I the actual contaminant concentrations reported in the R1 and arevprovided as a point of reference to compare to the clean-up range. The oapronts column on Table 6-1 notes the preliminary conclusions regarding the need for remediation based on the calculated clean-up levels
6.2 C0NTAMIN<AJCD iSEDIMENTS Since sedimeanttss/ mmeay migrate off-site, a soil (sediment) Ingestion scenario will be deve(loped. The exposure is expected to be infrequent (perhaps one time per week or less) at an ingestion rate of 0.1 gram of soil for each day of exposure. Appropriate sediment clean-up levels will be developed based on back calculations from acceptable intakes of contaminants.
The OLM will be used to determine the potential for the off-site sediments to release constituents to surface water. These predicted levels in the surface water will be compared to aquatic toxicity values.
6.3 SURFACE WATER
According to data in the RI, surface water runoff is not contaminated. Consequently runoff to surface water should not result in values that exceed appropriate aquatic toxicity parameters and ambient water quality criteria.
6-6
RSV 0018718
Achieving the limits of the expired NPDE5 permit is also advised for surface water runoff discharges from the site.
6.U GROUND MATER Eased on data presented in the RI, contaminated ground water is not a present or potential source of drinking water. It is not plausible to postulate that the 50 foot sand aquifer will become contaminated. Consequentlyr target clean-up levels for ground water are not based upon drinking water health goals; rather they are based on what has been accepted elsewhere in EPA Records of Decision (RODs) and on potential environmental impacts.
The recommended level of ground water remediation would be based on achieving a 10"** risk level for each carcinogenic constituent detected. Th^^f^vels have
been calculated for each of the contaminants detected in the N^CZ and are
presented in Table 6-2. It should be noted that the agency may require that the total carcinogenic risk not exceed the 10"** fsk level. This would
require adding up the individual carcinogenic risks, thus lowering the
individual values.
/*
6.5 AMBIENT AIR (as a limiting factor on soil contamination)
f?.,
As discussed in the Sectio
ambient air values should not exceed the 10 -6
cancer risk lpMel (via inhalation) at the receptor location or 0.01 of the threshold levplV(TLV) for non-carcinogens, expected to be present in ambient
air.
For purposes of this endangerment assessment and assuming a "no action*' scenario, i.e. no soil disturbance, contamination of the air via volatilization of components in the contaminated ground water is not considered a significant concern. Although the contaminants are volatile and will migrate through soil, it is expected that there will be substantial dispersion in ambient air from the point of ground emission to receptors. Volatilization of components in contaminated soils will be examined further in the Level II Assessment.
