RE: 24 - 25 February 1993 Site Visit Report TDD #01-9302-03, PCS #4175, DC #M0175

DATE: 5 March 1993

Weather i . On 24 February 1993, the high temperature was 35°F and the low temperature was 18°F. The barometric pressure was 29.94 inches. The wind was blowing from the west at 15 knots. On site there was approximately two inches of snow cover and the wind was blowing moderately from the west.

On 25 February 1993, the high temperature was 26°F and the low temperature was 7°F, The barometric pressure was 30.36 inches. The wind was blowing from the northwest at 15 knots. On site there was approximately two inches of snow cover and the wind was blowing moderately from the west.

The purpose of the site visit was to perform week 2 of indoor air sample collection. Air samples were collected in the residential basements over a 24-hour period. On Wednesday, 24 February 1993, Technical Assistance Team (TAT) members Timothy Johnson and Paul Killian and EPA personnel Peter Kahn, Air Section, distributed sample collection devices (Summa Canisters) in the following residential basements and ambient air stations located near the Rose Hill Regional Landfill site, South Kingstown, Rhode Island:

220 Rose Hill Road Sample # SA6902 278 Rose Hill Road Sample # SA6903 278 Rose Hill Road Duplicate Sample # SA6904 278 Rose Hill Road (outside) Sample # SA6905 294 Rose Hill Road Sample # SA6901 339B Rose Hill Road Sample # SA6899 339B Rose Hill Road (outside) Sample # SA6900 349 Rose Hill Road Sample # SA6906

The high and low temperatures and precipitation amounts were obtained from the URI Weather Station, Greene Herb Gardner, Jr., Research Farm, Plains Road, Kingston, RI (approximately 5 miles northwest of the site). The barometric pressure and wind speed and direction were obtained from the National Weather Bureau, Warwick, RI (approximately 20 miles north of the site) for data collected at 1200 hours on the days specified. The on-site weather data was determined by TAT field observations.

On Thursday, 25 February 1993, TAT members Johnson and Killian collected the eight Summa canisters, approximately 24 hours after the canisters were set up. The sample locations are depicted in Figure 1, included in Attachment I. On Thursday, 25 February 1993, the samples were sent, via Federal Express, to Air Toxics Ltd., Ranch Cordova, California for the analysis of vinyl chloride and methane. Included in Attachment II is a copy of the chain-of-custody record. Included in Attachment III are copies of the Indoor Air Sampling Worksheet for each sample collected. The laboratory results will be tabulated in a future report which will summarize the indoor air monitoring survey.

On both Wednesday and Thursday, TAT members monitored the residential basements with the MSA Combustible Gas Indicator/Oxygen Meter (CGI) Model 260, and the Century Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA). The OVA was equipped with a charcoal filter, thereby eliminating all organic compounds except for methane. The results are included on the Air Sampling Worksheets, included in Attachment III.
