Meeting Minutes

Central and Camelback Water Quality Assurance Revolving Fund (WQARF) Site Community Advisory Board (CAB) Meeting

Tuesday January 29, 2013

6:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. Arizona Department of Environmental Quality, Room 145

1110 W. Washington, Phoenix

DRAFT MINUTES Ref: RPU #13-274 CAB members present: Peter Zorbas, Pam Perry, Stan Watts, Paul Barquinero, Lynn Morrow, and Jean Schroeder CAB members absent: Frank Mendola ADEQ staff in attendance: Kevin Snyder, Project Manager; Wendy Flood, Community Involvement Coordinator; and Andre Chiaradia Members of the public present: The following matters were discussed, considered, or decided at the meeting: 1. Welcome and Introductions

Mr. Watts welcomed all attendees.

2. Acceptance or Changes to October 18, 2010 meeting minutes Ms. Perry moved to accept the minutes as written. It was seconded by Mr. Zorbas and passed

unanimously by the CAB. 3. Site Activities since October 2010 including Remedial Activities, Permitting, Site Investigation and

Budget - Kevin Snyder, Project Manager Mr. Kevin Snyder went over the current map for the site noting the change in plume size, smaller

southern plume and a separate plume up north. See Presentation Below

Mr. Snyder covered the groundwater and soil vapor extraction systems and updates, well sampling, permits and reports, events since last meeting October 2010, amount of water treated and sampling trends, water flow and maintenance activities for soil and groundwater systems.

Mr. Snyder let the CAB know that the soil vapor system now runs full time and is doing a better job then the pulsing of on and off. There have been more carbon changes out since the system is pulling more contaminates; there was also a new well installed that has helped. Mr.

Snyder further explained that a soil gas survey was done to identify potential source/spill areas. He also showed an example of a passive soil gas sampler. Vapor and soil samples were collected and a nested soil vapor well was installed at the southwest corner of the building which has shown positive results. Mr. Snyder ended his presentation covering future activities.

Ms. Schroder asked about the filling station and Mr. Snyder stated that work was performed by the former station operators regarding the station and clean-up on the corner.

Mr. Watts inquired about the schedule for sampling and drilling. Mr Snyder stated it would be within the next few months, late spring hopefully. Well drilling information will be handed out in the neighborhood.

Mr. Watts also asked for some information to give out at the annual HOA meeting. Ms. Flood stated she would follow up to get him the information. The CAB discussed attendance and the role of the group at HOA and other community events.

4. Discussion Regarding Merging with 7th Ave and Bethany Home CAB – Mr. Watts stated this CAB is in close proximately to the current CAB and many members of the CAB serve on that board as well. Discussion was held among the members if they should merge into one CAB. The CAB agreed that they would be open to merging with the 7th Ave CAB if they want to as well. Ms. Flood will follow up with CAB members on the next steps and where the meetings will be. 5. *Call to the public None 6. Next Meeting Date and Agenda Discussion A meeting will be scheduled once the 7th Ave and Bethany CAB decide they want to merge. Also, if there are milestone site events then a meeting will be tentatively scheduled for June 17, 2013 at 6:00 pm. Agenda topics will included the Windsor HOA meeting, an outreach report from CAB members and a site update from ADEQ. Ms. Perry thanked Mr. Snyder for the quick response to cover the tagging at the compound. 7. Adjournment

Ms. Schroeder moved to adjourn. It was seconded by Mr. Watts.

One East Camelback Extraction Well

WQARF Boundary

Area of PCE Greater Than 5 ug/L

Events Since October 2010 CAB Meeting

• The groundwater remediation and treatment system was started February 2003. To this point the groundwater remediation and treatment system has removed 284.4 lbs of PCE from groundwater

• The soil vapor extraction (SVE) system was started November 2007. To this point the soil vapor extraction (SVE) system has removed 4,460 lbs of PCE from soil

Events Since October 2010 CAB Meeting

• Groundwater samples were collected from monitor wells during the first, second and fourth quarters of 2011 and 2012

• Groundwater samples were collected from the extraction wells and groundwater treatment system quarterly and monthly, respectively. Vapor samples were collected from the SVE system twice monthly or monthly

• SVE system and groundwater treatment system continue to operate and are fully funded

Events Since October 2010 CAB MeetingEvents Since October 2010 CAB Meeting

• Permits were renewed during 2012 to continue operation of the treatment systems. These included:– Poor Quality Groundwater Withdrawal Permit;– Arizona Pollutant Discharge Elimination System

(AZPDES); and– Air Quality Permit with Maricopa County Air Quality

Department (MCAQD).

Events Since October 2010 CAB MeetingEvents Since October 2010 CAB Meeting

• ADEQ prepares operation & maintenance (O&M) reports for the Groundwater Remediation and Treatment System and the Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) System on a quarterly basis

• Hydro Geo Chem, Inc. conducts site activities weekly to keep remediation systems operational

• Hydro Geo Chem, Inc. compiles monitoring reports on a semi annual basis

Groundwater System Update• The pumps in extraction wells EW-1 and EW-2 are

only pumps currently in operation• EW-3 and EW-4 were shutdown because of low PCE

concentrations in 2009• Rehabilitation activities were conducted at well EW-1

to increase well performance including:- replacing the pump- brushing the well- jetting the well- bailing the well, and- pumping the well

Groundwater System Update

• Repairs to the groundwater treatment system have included:

- gauge and valve replacement- leak repairs- meter calibration, and- disconnection from the City of Phoenix (COP)

sewer system

SVE (soil) System Update

• Modifications to inlet piping and cooling system in 2011 created an increase in soil vapor flow

• Granular activated carbon (GAC) change-out was done in March, May, and November 2012

• Conducting quarterly performance tests of system as required by renewed Air Quality Permit

• An additional nested extraction well was connected to the system
