February 2, 2016 Mr. Richard Olm, PE Waste Programs Division Arizona Department of Environmental Quality Phoenix, Arizona 85007 Re: Proposed Changes to the Operation and Maintenance Plan, Revision 7 Roosevelt Irrigation District Wellhead Treatment Systems Dear Mr. Olm, Synergy Environmental, LLC (Synergy) has prepared proposed revisions to update the ADEQ- certified Roosevelt Irrigation District (RID) Wellhead Treatment Systems Operation and Maintenance Plan (O&M Plan). The proposed revisions, as provided in Attachment 1 to this document, are shown in redline/strikeout to the current O&M Plan (Revision 6) that was submitted to Arizona Department of Environmental Quality (ADEQ) late last summer and approved by ADEQ via your email, dated September 9, 2015. For your records, we have also prepared a “clean” version of the updated O&M Plan (Revision 7) as Attachment 2 to this letter. As you are aware, RID is required to review the Wellhead Treatment Systems O&M Plan at least annually for completeness and update the O&M Plan as appropriate. In preparation for RID’s upcoming operating year, we have reviewed the current O&M Plan and have proposed revisions to provide updated information and further context to the RID remedial actions that are governed by the O&M Plan. Such updates include the remedial actions pursuant to RID’s Feasibility Study Report, approved by ADEQ on April 13, 2015, which reduces the number of wells that will need treatment to only six wells from the eight wells required in the ADEQ- approved RID Modified Early Response Action, while still achieving all the Water Quality Assurance Revolving Fund (WQARF) remediation criteria and all remedial objectives established by ADEQ for the West Van Buren Area WQARF Site. Your prompt approval of the updated O&M Plan is appreciated. Once approved, Synergy will submit a complete, stamped copy of the Revision 7 Wellhead Treatment Systems O&M Plan.

EnvironmentalQuality(ADEQ)acknowledgedthattheRIDwellsthatextractanddischargeVOC-

surfacewatercontaminantmigrationwithinanddownstreamoftheWVBASite.

RID relies on the wells within the WVBA Site to meet critical water supply needs and,

consequently,submittedaWorkPlanforconductinganEarlyResponseAction(ERA)torestore

a portion of these impacted wells for current and reasonably foreseeable beneficial uses,

includingfutureuseasadrinkingwatersource(Montgomery&Associates,2010),asprovided

WESTVANBURENAREAWQARFSITE

Consistent with the Task 4-Engineering Design Study required by the ADEQ in the ERA

conditional approval letter of June 24, 2010 (ADEQ, 2010), RID submitted a proposal to

construct and operate a pilotwellhead treatment system at RID-95 and additional wellhead

treatmentatselectsites(SynergyEnvironmental,2011c).InaletterdatedSeptember2,2011,

ADEQauthorizedimplementationofRID’sproposedPilotSysteminitiative(ADEQ,2011).

Beforeinitiatingtreatmentattheadditionalwellsites(i.e.,RID-89,RID-92andRID-114)under

RID’s proposed Pilot System initiative, RID agreed to prepare and submit a near-term

assessment, following one month of system operation, to consider the technology, system

designand site-specificengineeringandoperationcontrols todetermine theeffectivenessof

liquid-phase granular activated carbon (LGAC) and the reliability of the system as

designed/operated to provide safeguards to protect public health in the event of system

failures (in accordance with A.A.C. R18-16-411). The 1-Month Technology/DesignDemonstration Report: RID-95 Pilot System (Synergy, 2012a), describes the successfulcompletion of the assessment period, which demonstrated the reliable operation of the

treatment system without identification of any design or operational issue that could

reasonablyendangerpublichealth.

On July 17, 2012, aModified ERA Proposal (Synergy, 2012b) was submitted to ADEQ as an

addendumtotheoriginalERAWorkPlan,datedFebruary3,2010andconditionallyapproved

byADEQonJune24,2010(ADEQ,2010). Theaddendumwasproposedinordertoprovidea

morecosteffectiveapproachtoaccomplishthegoalsoftheERAremedialaction.TheModified

ERAProposalprovidedanoptimizeddesignapproachtoaddressthehighestcontaminatedRID

wells located in the WVBA Site and incorporated information and insights gained from the

investigationsprescribedbyADEQintheoriginalERAWorkPlanletter(Tasks1through4)and

fromthePilotSysteminitiative. Basedonthedetailedconsiderationandanalysisofthisnew

information, RID proposed substantive modifications to the original ERA Work Plan, which

included utilizing a combination of treatment and blending to effectively reduce the

concentration of VOCs from several additional, lower concentration wells resulting in lower

volumeofwaterbeingdirectly treatedwhileprovidingahigher totalvolumeofgroundwater

thatisremediatedtomeetapplicablefederalmaximumcontaminantlevels(MCLs).OnOctober

19, 2012, Synergy submitted the Modified ERA Work Plan to ADEQ, which incorporated

ConsistentwiththeADEQletterdatedSeptember2,2011,thatagreedwithimplementationof

the Pilot System initiative, the Long-Term Operational Assessment Report, RID-95 WellheadPilot Treatment Systems documented the long-term performance of thewellhead treatment

systems inorder “…todeterminewhetherwellhead treatment canbeaneffective treatmenttechnology…(that results in)…reducing the cost of the final remedy…and/or mitigatingcontaminantexposure”(Synergy,2012d). TheAssessmentReport indicatedthattheRIDPilot

4.5 INSTRUMENTATIONANDCONTROLS

The wellhead treatment systems are equipped with instrumentation and controls (I&C),

designed and integrated by Vertech, that provide real-time monitoring of key performance

parameters of system operation. The I&C also enables remote operation andmonitoring of

system operations and provides alarm notification for key process and control parameters.

Control System record drawings for the currentwellhead treatment systems are included in

AppendixA(RID-89),AppendixB(RID-92),AppendixC(RID-95),andAppendixD(RID-114).

Instrumentationisincludedtomonitor:

• Wellpumprunstatus;

• Welldischargeandbypassflowrates(instantaneousandtotalized);

separate sample number and identification will be assigned to the duplicate, and it will be

submitted blind to the laboratory. Identity of the duplicate samplewill be recorded on the

WeeklyOperationandMaintenanceInspectionForm(AppendixJ).

Trip blank samples are used to determine if VOC water samples have been contaminated

duringtransport fromthe field to the lab. Thetripblanksarepreparedbythe laboratoryby

R18-16-411). The 1-Month Technology/DesignDemonstration Report: RID-95 Pilot System (Synergy, 2012a), describes the successfulcompletion of the assessment period, which demonstrated the reliable operation of thetreatment system without identification of any design or operational issue that couldreasonablyendangerpublichealth.On July 17, 2012, aModified ERA Proposal (Synergy, 2012b) was submitted to ADEQ as anaddendumtotheoriginalERAWorkPlan,datedFebruary3,2010andconditionallyapprovedbyADEQonJune24,2010(ADEQ,2010).

The I&C also enables remote operation andmonitoring ofsystem operations and provides alarm notification for key process and control parameters.Control System record drawings for the currentwellhead treatment systems are included inAppendixA(RID-89),AppendixB(RID-92),AppendixC(RID-95),andAppendixD(RID-114).Instrumentationisincludedtomonitor:

• Wellpumprunstatus;• Welldischargeandbypassflowrates(instantaneousandtotalized);• Flowtoeachtreatmentskid(instantaneousandtotalized);• Wellheadpressure;and,• Differentialpressureacrosseachtreatmentskid.

Controls/alarmsareincludedfor:

• Pumpstart/stop;3 These systems currently only operate 7-8 months per year based on RID’s historical operations.
