Rhode Island Department o f Environmental Management Project Operations Plan Remedial Action - Rose Hill Landfill

Revision: 0 Date: September 2006

INTRODUCTION

The Project Operations Plan (POP) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Attachment A of the Statement of Work (SOW) in the Cooperative Agreement (CA). These plans are required for all remediation work under Comprehensive Environmental Response Liability Act (CERCLA) and their contents are standardized, although they require careful adjustments for site-specific conditions. It is necessary to prepare these plans in accordance with guidance documents published by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).

A POP consists of four separate documents: Site Management Plan (SMP), Sampling Analysis Plan (SAP), Community Relations Support Plan (CRSP), and Health and Safety Plan (HASP). The SAP is divided into two distinct elements: Field Sampling Plan (FSP) and Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP). A brief description of each portion of the POP is as follows:

SAP - FSP. The FSP identifies the Data Quality Objectives (DQOs, also referred to as Project Quality Objectives (PQOs)); the types of investigations to be performed (including methods, equipment, and locations); the types, locations and numbers of environmental samples to be collected; chemical analyses to be performed; data deliverables to be provided; and the overall project schedule.

The PQOs for the RA Phase 11 Construction program will be developed by EPA and RIDEM through a detailed review of available project information including the former Site activities and previous investigations that have been completed at the Site. The chemical data obtained during the RA Phase I Construction and period between the two phases will be used to further develop the nature and distribution of Site-related contaminants established during the previous investigations at the Site and to determine if construction activities performed during the RA have impacted environmental media. Sufficient quality control has been included to satisfactorily verify the accuracy of the sample analysis results reported by the laboratory and to ensure the legal defensibility of the data, and to provide a limited assessment of laboratory performance. The PQOs include an evaluation of the following:

Effectiveness of the source control remedy, Need for taking any further response actions under a second remedial phase, Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) predictions for Site-related contaminant concentrations affecting local water bodies; and Landfill gas generation.

The FSP includes all elements specified for quarterly monitoring of groundwater, surface water, sediment, leachate and air. As outlined below, the FSP has been incorporated in the QAPP.

SAP - OAPP. The QAPP identifies the processes and personnel associated with ensuring collection of data of known and useable quality that will correlate directly with the elements of the FSP. The primary activities to be addressed in the QAPP include collection of groundwater, surface water, sediment, and landfill gas samples as well as the chemical analyses to be performed. Information was also included for leachate and soil in the event that RIDEM requests collection of samples of these media. The QAPP specifies analytical methods to be used, sample containers, sample volumes, field preservation requirements, holding time requirements, packaging and shipping of samples, chain-of-custody, laboratory reporting requirements, and data review procedures. The QAPP also identifies the personnel responsibilities for data quality and the

Revision: 0 Date: September 2006

processes for implementing corrective action, if required. The QAPP specifies analytical methodologies that fulfill data requirements of the ROD and the RFP.

SMP. The SMP describes how the project will be managed to safely complete the required work at the Site. It addresses issues such as Site security, establishment of field facilities, traffic and passersby controls, contingency and notification plans, key personnel and their responsibilities, and management of investigation-derived waste.

CRSP. The existing CRSP has been modified to incorporate activities associated with the RA Phase II construction activities. An Administrative Record for the Site already exists, and community relations activities have been conducted for the Site, including public meetings associated with selection of Alternative 4B. Modification of the CRSP was implemented to meet the needs of the RA Phase 11 construction activities. At the completion of the RA Phase 11 construction activities, additional updates will be included to provide deliverables as part of the Administrative Record and provide information to promote public understanding of the RA as needed.

HASP. The HASP addresses the health and safety aspects of activities Berger will perform at the site during RA Phase I1 construction and following the completion of the landfill closure. The HASP covers chemical exposures as well as hazard control measures associated with the RA Phase 11construction activities. The HASP was developed for field activities which conform to the applicable Occupation Safety and Health Administration and RlDEM requirements including, but not limited to, Title 29 CFR Part 1910.120. The HASP was reviewed and approved by a Certified Industrial Hygienist to meet the specific hazards and requirements of the project.

For the purposes of this project, all elements of the SAP are contained in the QAPP. The information contained within the QAPP includes all specified requirements of the FSP. The following is a list of the requirements stated in the CA for the FSP and referenced sections in the QAPP where the requirements are met:

o Site Background (Section 5.0 Problem Definition/Background), o Sampling Objectives (Section 7.0 Project Quality Objectives and Measurement Performance

Criteria), o Sampling Location and Frequency (Section 8.0 Sampling Process Design), o Sample Designation (Section 10.0 Sample Handling, Tracking and Custody Requirement), o Sampling Equipment and Procedures (Section 9.0 Sampling Procedures and Requirements),

and o Sample Handling and Analysis (Section 10.0 Sample Handling, Tracking and Custody

Requirement).

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The purpose of the project is to implement Phase I1 (Landfill Cap Construction) of the Remedial Action (RA) for the Site, Operable Unit 1 (OU1) Source Control Plan and following completion of landfill capping, implement the Long Term Environmental Monitoring Plan. The elements of the tasks to be performed are consistent with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Record of Decision (ROD) for the Site signed by the Director of the Office of Site Remediation and Restoration, Region 1, New England on December 12, 1999 and the Site Cooperative Agreement (CA) Statement of Work (SOW) dated May 28,2004.

Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM), Office of Waste Management is responsible for administering the State's Comprehensive Environmental Response Liability and Compensation Act (CERCLA, as amended by SARA) funded cooperative agreements and state superfund contracts. RIDEM is serving as the Lead Agency in order to implement the work. There are two Contractors working directly for RIDEM to implement Phase I1 of the RA: RA Contractor and Supervising Contractor. The E.T.& L. Corporation (E.T.& L.) is under contract with RIDEM to serve as the RA Contractor. The Louis Berger Group, Inc. (Berger) is under contract with RIDEM to serve as the Supervising Contractor responsible for oversight and Independent Quality Assurance Team (IQAT) services. Berger is also serving as the Engineer during Phase I1 RA construction.

The Site Management Plan (SMP) was prepared as a component of the Remedial Action Project Operations Plan (RA POP) in accordance with the RA SOW in the May 28, 2004 Cooperative Agreement (CA).

1.1 SITEBACKGROUNDAND PURPOSE

The Site is located within the town of South Kingstown, Rhode Island in the village of Peace Dale within Washington County. It lies approximately five miles inland from Narragansett Bay and two miles north of Wakefield, Rhode Island. The Site is bordered by Rose Hill Road to the west, the Saugatucket River to the east and residential private property to the north and south. Figure 1 illustrates the Site location with reference to the Town of South Kingstown and the abutting Towns. The Site began operation in 1967 and was operated by the Town of South Kingstown under the state permit from RIDEM. For approximately 16 years, the Site received domestic and industrial wastes from residents and industries in the Towns of South Kingstown and Narragansett. In October 1983, the Site reached its state permitted maximum capacity and active landfilling operations ceased.

The Site is located in an abandoned sand and gravel quarry and encompasses approximately 70 acres. As shown in Figure 2, the Site consists of three separate and inactive disposal areas or landfills, referred to herein as the Solid Waste Area (SWA), the Bulky Waste Area (BWA) and the Sewage Sludge Area (SSA).

Two primary surface water bodies, the Saugatucket fiver and Mitchell Brook, flow through the Site. An unnamed brook, west of the Site, flows into the Saugatucket River and an unnamed tributary, in the northern portion of the Site, flows into Mitchell Brook. The Saugatucket River is classified by the State of Rhode Island as a Class B water body that is suitable for fishing and swimming. Wetland and flood plain habitats are also found adjacent to the disposal areas and are subject to runoff and

contamination fiom the disposal areas. An open excavated area approximately 400 feet north of the disposal areas is currently used for target and skeet shooting. A former sand and gravel bank exists approximately 200 feet west of the disposal areas.

In 1983, a transfer station was constructed on the Site and is located approximately 1,155 feet east of Rose Hill Road. The transfer station is currently active and refuse is unloaded fiom collection trucks and is transferred to vehicles that ultimately transport it off-site to the Johnston Landfill.

Groundwater is used within a 3-mile radius of the Site for the following purposes:

Private residential supplies (no alternate supply available) Municipal public water supply

Residents of South Kingstown obtain water fiom both public and private wells. Private wells within a 3-mile radius of the Site consists of overburden or bedrock wells. Generally, residences along Rose Hill Road west and south of the Site use municipal water. Three supply wells for the University of Rhode Island are located approximately 2.7 miles northwest of the Site. Two municipal supply wells for the Kingstown District are located approximately 3-miles northwest of the Site. The University and the District use each other's systems as water supply back-up.

1.2 OBJECTIVE PLANOF THE SITE MANAGEMENT

The overall objective of the SMP is to provide RJDEM and USEPA with a written understanding and commitment of how various project aspects such as access, security, contingency procedures, management responsibilities, waste disposal, work progress review, and data handling are being managed by the RA Contractor and how oversight and IQAT services are being managed by Berger. The SMP is a component of the Project Operations Plan (POP) being prepared for Phase 11-Landfill Closure and the Long Term Environmental Monitoring Plan.

2.0 SCOPE OF WORK - REMEDIAL ACTION--PHASE 11: LANDFILL CLOSURE

Field activities performed by the RA Contractor personnel during the implementation of the Phase 11 RA consist of the major elements:

1. Excavation of approximately 42,800 yd3 of earth and sewage sludge £rom Sewage Sludge Area (SSA) and blending of approximately 30,000 yd3 of sewage sludge at a 1 :1 ratio, to be used as plantable soil;

2. Construction of a 21 acre multi-layer RCRA C landfill cap that meets the performance standards contained in the Contract Documents;

3. Construction of a landfill gas collection and venting system; 4. Construction of Stormwater Management Controls, including drainage swales,

downchutes, and constructed wetlands; 5. Surface restoration as indicated in grading plans specified in the Contract Drawings; 6. Fences, security, health and safety, erosion control, odor abatement,; and 7. Other miscellaneous tasks contained in the Contract Documents.

Rose Hill LancIfill Final Report

Date: November 2006

A complete description of the RA Contractor's scope of work, including specifications, is presented in the Project Manual for Construction of Rose Hill Landfill Superfund Phase 11- LandJill Closure, dated May 30,2006.

Berger's field activities will be limited to construction oversight of the RA Contractor's work, environmental monitoring, review of RA Contractor's QC testing, completion of IQAT testing and installation of groundwater and landfill gas monitoring wells. These activities will be performed in accordance with established policies and procedures as defined or referenced in the Health and Safety Plan (HASP), the Sampling and Analysis Plan (SAP), and the Construction Quality Assurance Plan (CQAP). The exclusion zone, contamination reduction zone, and clean area will be indicated in the RA Contractor's HASP for any on-site activities involving the potential exposure to hazardous substances.

Typical field activities during the Phase 11RA performed by Berger would be:

General construction oversight, including review of RA Contractor's project submittals and conducting weekly project meetings Visual observations of work being performed Conformance testing (IQAT) as outlined in the CQAP Quarterly monitoring, following completion of Phase 11construction

Long Term Monitoring Plan The Long Term Monitoring Plan (LTM Work Plan) is, in part, a continuance and out-growth of the Sampling Plan that was developed as part of the RD. The components and decisions points approved throughout the RD with respect to Site conditions and modifications to the Final Design sampling and monitoring will be incorporated into the developing the scope of the LTM Work Plan. The LTM Work Plan will involve monitoring to demonstrate conformance and compliance with the goals of the ROD for the source control remedy. At a minimum, the plan will detail how the State will demonstrate that the Performance Standards as listed in the May 2004 SOW have been or will be attained at the Site. It will also be designed to gather data on groundwater and surface water contamination in accordance with the ROD, including periodic tasks to inspect and assure that the Institutional Controls placed on the Site and off the Site are being adhered to. The plan will be developed to indicate specific sampling locations at the site and sampling frequency, which is anticipated to be four quarterly sampling rounds over a one year period.

A summary report of the sampling will be required after the laboratory results are validated. During sampling activities the following field parameters will be required: Groundwater (Ph, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Turbidity, Temperature, and Oxidation-Reduction Potential with a YSI Model 6920 Multi meter); Surface Water (Ph, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Turbidity, and Temperature with a Model 6820 Multi meter); and landfill gas (Hydrogen Sulfide, Flow Rate, Carbon Dioxide, and Lower Explosive Limit).

Specifically, sampling activities will include:

Task coordination (including equipment and materials procurement, resource scheduling, laboratory coordination, and sample management); Measure and record groundwater elevations at 18 site monitoring wells;

Date: November 2006

Conduct low flow monitoring of indicator parameters at 18 site monitoring wells (including Ph, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Turbidity, Temperature, and Oxidation-Reduction Potential with a YSI Model 6920 Multi meter); Conduct low flow sampling for volatile organic compounds (VOCs), semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), and total metals Collect parameters at 8 surface water locations (including Ph, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Turbidity, and Temperature with a Model 6820 Multi meter); Collect 8 surface water samples to be analyzed for total metals Collect 4 Sediment Samples for SVOCs and total metals analyses Collect field parameters (Hydrogen Sulfide, Flow Rate, Carbon Dioxide, and Lower Explosive Limit using a portable air pump such a Mini Ram and a Gem 2000, Gastech 201, or equivalent) from 5 landfill gas monitoring points Collect 5 landfill gas samples to be analyzed for VOCs using summa canisters, and Enter monitoring data (field measurements) into data tables.

PROPERTYACCESS

Throughout the course of the RA construction, the site will be accessed at the construction entrance at the northwest comer of the site at the location of the northernmost proposed 24-foot swing gate location on Rose Hill Road (see Figure 3). Additional temporary access roads will be constructed within the SWA and BWA to provide access to the entire site. Access to the site via the private road (Pearl's Way) to the north of the site will not be allowed.

The transfer station access road currently servicing the existing transfer station will be kept accessible to the public during construction. The contractor will not be allowed to access the Site through the transfer station access road.

SITE ACCESS CONTROLAND SECURITY

Currently, the South Kingstown transfer station is opened for business from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday. The transfer station access road has an existing gate that is locked at the end of each business day. The area adjacent to the BWA is used as a target shooting range. As discussed in Section 3.2, notification forms through RIDEM will be used to notify the owner of the range that personnel will be on-site.

Security measures will include existing and new fencing, gates, and signage, as well as communication with local police. Presently, the Town of South Kingstown has security responsibilities as the property owner and transfer station operator. However, the RA Contractor will be responsible for site security and will implement entire site access control and security for the duration of the RA construction. Both the RA Contractor and the Engineer will have full-time field office trailers located on-site during the construction work.

Access control and security will be provided at the site for general citizen security and for the security of federal, state, and private property on the site. Security measures are necessary for the following reasons:

Prevent the exposure of unauthorized, unprotected people to site hazards;

Date: November 2006

Avoid additional contamination from vandals disturbing investigation-derived waste or from persons seeking to abandon other wastes on the site; Prevent theft; and Avoid interference with safe working procedures.

When not in use, equipment and supplies associated with the environmental monitoring activities conducted by Berger personnel during construction will be stored in the Berger site trailer. The long term monitoring will be implemented after construction is complete. At that point, the field offices will have been removed and all equipment and supplies will be brought directly to the site each day. Site access for monitoring will be via the transfer station access road.

3.1.1 Fencing and Gates

E.T.& L. will utilize the existing fence at the site as long as possible to provide the barrier to limit access to the site. The proposed 6-foot high chain link fence will be installed as shown on the contract drawings upon completion of capping and final grading of the SWA. Currently, a temporary gate is in place at the site's construction entrance which is locked each night.

For the SWA, a 6-ft high chain link fence is proposed along the perimeter of the SWA with a lockable gate at each access point. In addition, a 6-ft high chain link fence is also proposed along the southern limits of the BWA adjacent to the transfer station. These security fences will prevent unauthorized access to the SWA and will prevent vehicular access to the BWA. The BWA and SSA would still remain accessible to pedestrians; however, these locations are remote and difficult to access due to vegetation and topography.

3.1.2 Signage

Signs required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) such as confined space, danger, caution, etc., for hazards present during the construction and implementation of the RA, as well as other project signs as required by Specification 01500, will be described in the Contractor's Work Plan and erected and maintained by the RA contractor.

3.1.3 Local Police Department

The South KingstowdWakefield Police Departments will be asked to have its normal town patrol conduct nightly drive-by inspections of the site along Rose Hill Road. The RA Contractor's Site Health and Safety Plan includes provisions for communications with the police departments to ensure they are informed of site activities.

3.2 PROCEDURES TO ABUTTINGFOR ACCESS PROPERTIES

Berger and the RA Contractor may require access to private properties to conduct site activities during the implementation of the Phase I1 RA. In situations where private property will be accessed, the land owner shall be notified at a minimum of one week prior to accessing the property. All correspondence shall be coordinated through RIDEM's project manager. Figure 4 is the Town of South Kingstown's Tax Assessor's map illustrating the abutting properties to the Site. Table 1 summarizes the abutting owners with all addresses being current as of September 1,2006.

Berger Project Team

As the Supervising Contractor, Berger will serve as the State's liaison with the RA Contractor and shall be the technical overseer, reporting to RIDEM (who will then inform USEPA, and the Towns), on the day to day construction operations and progress at the Site.

The following is a summary of the Berger scope of work:

Prepare a revised Project Operations Plan (POP) to address the construction, monitoring, sampling, and other field activities to be undertaken as part of the Remedial Action. The revised POP will establish procedures to be followed by the Supervising Contractor and IQAT, in performing field, laboratory, and analysis work, and community and agency liaison activities. Prepare a Construction Quality Assurance Plan (CQAP) for Phase I1 Construction. Provide on-site oversight of Phase I1construction activities to be performed during the RA. Berger's resident inspector (RI) will lead the weekly meetings and provide a written record of each meeting, which will be provided to all interested parties on a weekly basis with a description of the items discussed, and the resolution of each by email. Provide IQAT services to monitor the RA Contractor's quality control programs in implementing the CQAP. The IQAT will perform monitoring, inspections, and testing of the construction work to evaluate and report conformance with the construction plans and specifications and verify that the CQAP is implemented. Specifically, the IQAT will:

o witness and review all RA Contractor field QC testing, o coordinate and complete independent QAIQC tests (e.g.: peel tests, compaction tests,

soil structure and moisture tests, etc.); instrument calibration checks; and periodic split sampling,

o review all RA Contractor QC submittals., and o report the results of the review of the RA Contractor's QC programs, independent

IQAT testing, and corrective measures. Conduct sampling and field screening of environmental media (surface water, sediments, leachate, dust, and air) for laboratory and field analysis to determine if construction activities performed during the RA have impacted surface water, sediment, or air. Provide construction administration services (review requests for payment, change orders, schedules, shop drawings, and completion documents; issue field orders). Prepare project documentation (Pre-Final Inspection Report, Remedial Action Report). Provide contractor and material procurement support for installation of groundwater and landfill gas monitoring wells. Provide four rounds of environmental sampling following completion of Phase I1 construction.

communicate directly with one another (e.g., E.T.& L.'s QC Manager and Berger7s QA Manager, E.T.& L.'s SHSO and Berger7s Health and Safety Officer).

Mr. Feeney will keep Mr. Jablonslu informed of the following:

schedules of field activities, project deliverables, meetings, and key milestones; significant issues that may arise from activities in the field or within the community; changes that should or need to be made to the remedial action, and reasons for the changes; and developments that will cause changes in schedules.

The primary communication channel to USEPA and the Towns will be through RIDEM. Mr. Jablonski will communicate directly with USEPA7s Remedial PM, David Newton, Town of South Kingstown's Jon Schock, and Town of Narragansett's Jeff Ceasrine. Mr. Jablonski can instruct Berger to send information to, or communicate directly with, the EPA or the Towns on certain matters.

Flow of Data and Information. As stated above, data and information will be provided to the RIDEM PM, who will in turn convey information to USEPA, Towns, and Berger. At the specific request of RIDEM, Berger will forward documents and information directly to all parties involved. Data will be provided in a timely manner after collection. At no time will Berger provide data or information to the public or any other parties or organizations without consent from RIDEM.

RA Contractors. E.T.& L. will be responsible for coordination with its subcontractors. Berger will serve as the primary communication with the RA Contractor.

Laboratory Involvement. The laboratory subcontractor is a vital part of the overall success of the project. For this reason, several forms of communication are needed to ensure data objectives are met. Berger's primary contact with the laboratory will be the Project Manager, Chris Feeney or his designee. Mr. Feeney will communicate frequently with the laboratory specialists to provide technical guidance and assess data as they become available. The laboratory subcontractor will inform the Berger QNQC Officer in a timely manner of significant issues that develop with the laboratory data or its QNQC requirements. If significant issues with laboratory data or analyses arise that will affect data quality objectives, schedules, or overall project objectives, the RIDEM PM will be immediately notified. Significant changes to the QAPP will be documented on Field Change Forms and sent to all documented holders of the QAPP. The QAPP will be prepared at a later date following completion of the Long Term Monitoring Plan.

7.0 EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION PLAN

This section briefly summarizes the emergency response and notification procedures for the Rose Hill Landfill Remedial Action. E.T.& L. is responsible for implementing the site emergency procedures.

A Site Specific HASP has been prepared for Berger employees as a separate component of the comprehensive RA POP. The HASP provides the basis for safety and health criteria and procedures that will be used during the field activities associated with Phase I1 of the RA. Contingency and notification plans for any potentially dangerous activities associated with the proposed monitoring and oversight components of the Phase I1 RA are included in Berger's HASP.

Pre-emergency planning, with representatives fiom RIDEM, USEPA, South Kingstown, Narragansett, and RA Contractor, will be conducted to discuss specific elements of the site emergency response plan and notification requirements for emergency personnel. The RA Contractor Project Manager, Site Superintendent, and SHSO at a minimum will be required to conduct the pre- emergency planning. The Towns of South Kingstown and Narragansett may as they see fit directly involve the local fire and police departments at the planning stage.

During the Site-Specific Orientation and at the daily Safety Briefings ("Tailgate Safety Meetings7'), the RA Contractor will infondtrain and remind all Site personnel of the provisions of the emergency response plan, the communication systems, and evacuation routes described in the RA Contractor's HASP. The RA Contractor's HASP must be reviewed and revised, if necessary, on a regular basis to ensure that the plan is adequate and consistent with prevailing site conditions.

7.1.1 Emergency Response

The RA Contractor will direct all emergency response activities and is responsible for field implementation and enforcement of health and safety policies and procedures. When an emergency arises, the RA Contractor is responsible for implementing the emergency response plan described in the RA Contractor's HASP. The Berger Resident Engineer has the responsibility to ensure that all Berger personnel have been notified and are following the Site emergency response plan contained in the RA Contractor's HASP.

The general procedures for responding to emergencies at the Rose Hill Landfill Superfund Site will include notifying the appropriate local and state emergency response authorities in accordance with the emergency response plan described in the RA Contractor's HASP.

7.1.2 Notification Procedures

RIDEM, USEPA, South Kingstown, and Narragansett will be notified immediately in the event of an emergency. The SHSO andlor Site Superintendent will immediately evaluate the incident and, if necessary, notify the Fire Department emergency support services. If not previously notified, the RA Contractor PM, Berger PM, and RIDEM project manager will be advised of the situation.




Date: November 2006

Telephone numbers for emergency contact personnel are listed on the Site and Emergency Contacts List in the RA Contractor's HASP and will be posted at the field office phones as well as various locations throughout the Site.

The RA Contractor will complete an incident report and provide it to the RIDEM project manager, once the urgency of the emergency incident has been resolved.

7.1.3 Chemical ReleaseISpills

Emergency procedures for chemical release (such as rupture of a buried d m or excavation of highly contaminated waste) are presented in E.T.& L.'s HASP. Emergency procedures for emergency spill response are presented in E.T.& L.'s HASP.

Section 11.7.5 of Berger's HASP also includes a discussion of spills and leaks.

7.1.4 Airborne ContaminantsIOdor Monitoring

Air Monitoring by RA Contractor Procedures for air monitoring are presented in E.T.& L.'s HASP. Air monitoring will be performed using a photoionization detector (PID) to detect volatile organic compounds during excavation operations. Also, readings will be taken of LEL, methane, carbon dioxide and oxygen. Colorimetric tubes will be used to determine the presence of specific compounds if action levels are reached.

Odor Control Abatement Measures by RA Contractor The RA Contractor is responsible for the implementation of engineered controls to minimize andlor eliminate objectionable odors generated during the excavation and consolidation of waste/soils in accordance with the approved Odor Abatement Plan. Berger on-site personnel will be responsible for ensuring the Odor Abatement Plan is adhered to.

A complete weather station monitoring precipitation, wind speed, wind direction, temperature and barometric pressure will be in operation at all times.

8.0 WASTE MATERIALS MANAGEMENT

The RA SOW requires that the SMP provide for the proper disposal of materials used and wastes generated during the RA (e.g., drill cuttings, extracted ground water, protective clothing, disposable equipment) consistent with the off-site disposal aspects of SARA, RCRA, and applicable state laws.

8.1 WASTES GENERATED DURING THE REMEDIAL ACTION

The storage, labeling, handling, and disposal, of all wastes generated by the RA Constructor during the construction of the RA is the RA Contractor's responsibility. The following wastes are anticipated to be generated:

Trash and construction garbage - this waste will be collected and disposed on a daily basis at the Town of South Kingstown transfer station. E.T.& L. will obtain a "tag" from the Town.


Rhode Island De~artment o f Environmental Manaaement Site Manapement Plan Phase II-Landfill Closure


Date: November 2006

8.2 INVESTIGATION WASTE AND DISPOSAL DERIVED (IDW) GENERATION

Berger's on-site oversight/IQAT personnel will conduct sampling and field screening of environmental media (surface water, sediments, leachate, dust, and air) for laboratory and field analysis to determine if construction activities performed during the RA have impacted surface water, sediment, or air. Berger will provide contractor and material procurement support to initiate installation of three overburden groundwater monitoring wells, three bedrock groundwater monitoring wells, and six landfill gas monitoring wells. Berger will also complete four quarterly rounds of environmental sampling following the completion of the Phase I1 construction contract.

It is anticipated that these activities will produce several types of waste materials requiring management: well-purge water, decontamination rinsate, used personnel protective equipment, and expendable sampling supplies. At this time, it is not anticipated that these activities will produce hazardous investigation derived wastes (IDW). Excess groundwater encountered during well purging operations will be put back into the associated monitoring well.

9.0 WORK PROGRESS REVIEW

In accordance with Article 35 of Section 00800 of the specification, E.T.& L. shall submit to Berger on an approved form, daily activity reports for the duration of the Project. The reports shall indicate: all personnel currently employed on the Work, including each trade and every Subcontractor; all equipment and whether such equipment was idle for the particular Day; a general description of all work accomplished; any field testing andlor inspections; and any authorized extra work (time and materials reports shall be submitted on separate forms).

In accordance with Section V.E. of the RA SOW and Section 01040 of the Project Manual, weekly field meetings will be held at the site. The progress of the Work will also be reviewed at the weekly meetings. These meetings will be specific in nature, dealing directly with on-going construction activities. Any problems encountered in the Work will be discussed at this meeting by all parties involved, and resolved before the Work is continued. In addition, the status of all active work will be reported and reviewed in accordance with proposed construction schedules. Berger's Resident Inspector will document the weekly field meetings.

In accordance with Article 14 of Section 00700 and Section 01 152 of the Project Manual, E.T.& L. will submit applications for progress payments payment to Berger for review. Berger will submit invoices and a budget status summary spreadsheet to RIDEM on a monthly basis.

10.0 DATA MANAGEMENT

This section of the SMP provides the procedures to be followed for organizing, manipulating, and presenting the field and laboratory data generated during the Long Term Monitoring program following Phase I1 RA activities, and verifying its' quality for the RA work.

The purpose of the data management system (DMS) is to organize, store, present, and facilitate analyzing and verifying data obtained during the Long Term Monitoring program following Phase I1 RA activities. The DMS encompasses the overall management of field and laboratory data from the time it is first generated, through entry into, and use within a computer database system, and presentation as tables, charts, graphs, maps and cross-sections.

Site-specific field and laboratory procedures to be used at the Rose Hill Landfill site are incorporated into the DMS by reference to the specifications outlined in Section 15 of Berger's Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP).

The DMS will manage the following types of data:

Data compiled for the Rose Hill Landfill site during the RA, including chemical testing results for soil, groundwater, sediment and surface water; Data compiled during the RA, including materials testing performed by IQAT personnel; and Data compiled during the four rounds of environmental sampling following the completion of the Phase 11 construction contract.

The DMS will be expanded to include additional types of data based on project needs.

10.2 DATA ORGANIZATION, AND QA/QC PROCEDURESREDUCTION,

Raw data, including the field and laboratory reports prepared while performing the RA, will be compiled in working files. For data obtained during the RA, the QNQC procedure will include a review of all data points in field and laboratory reports for completeness, indications of aberrations, adherence to and interference with specified procedures, and reasonability. Edits will be made, where needed, to transform the worlung files into record files which are considered complete and correct. Examples of such edits are correcting a mis-typed well identification number on a laboratory report, or "flagging" a data point because of an aberration (e.g., intended detection limit not achieved due to high matrix interference). Electronic backup files will be periodically made of the database. Throughout the RA, backup files will be made when the database system record files are added to or otherwise modified.

A computerized database management system designed to manage and organize a large amount of sampling and analytical data will be used. The system operates in a user-ready format using


Rhode Island Deuartment ofEnvironmental Manaement Site Manawment Plan Phase II-Landfill Closure


Date: November 2006

commercially available software (Environmental Quality Information System ("EQuISTM") computer database) currently used by RIDEM.

This data management system is intended to serve as the database for data generated in past and ongoing phases of the project. The data management system is designed to provide the technical project staff with a vehicle to sort, arrange, and thereby analyze data with speed and efficiency, while allowing user-specified reporting capabilities. Output from the program may be generated for direct printing and plotting, or in file form (ASCII or Excel spreadsheet formats) for use by others. The ASCII file output can be used directly by other software (e.g., Surfer) to produce contour maps and graphs, or to serve as input for analytical/numerical models.

By allowing the user to select criteria for construction of each table, the data management system facilitates generation of unique data tables from which to analyze various problems and scenarios. Data may be sorted by sample ID, analyte or groups of analytes, dates, or any other identifier that might be added to the data field. Positive hit tables can be generated which greatly simplify presentation and review of large data sets.

Final reports may include graphic representation of physical and chemical data using a combination of contouring, graphing, and drafting software (e.g., Surfer@, Tecplot@, and AutoCAD).
