INTRODUCTION

Background

Contaminated water wells in and near the Verona well field were discovered bythe Michigan Department of Public Health in September 1981. Subsequentinvestigations by the State of Michigan and USEPA (U.S. Environmental Protec-tion Agency) showed that numerous organic compounds, principally volatilehalogenated organic compounds, had impacted groundwater in both the glacialdrift and bedrock aquifers. The highest concentrations were found in an areanorth of Emmett Street and west of the Grand Trunk Western Railroad (GTW).

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Michigan Department ofNatural Resources suggested that three local firms might be potential sourcesof the lost chemicals. The MDNR, and later the USEPA, under the authority o*the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and LiabilityAct of 1980, requested these firms to voluntarily initiate investigations todetermine whether or not they were a source of contamination and if remedialmeasures were necessary. In cooperation with those requests, the GTWconducted a study in July 1982 to evaluate a localized groundwater contamina-tion incident near their heavy repair shop where a solvent leak had beendiscovered and subsequently repaired. The investigation summarized in thisreport expands upon the July, 1982 study and also examines soil quality on GTWproperty closer to the Verona well field.

Studies conducted by other agencies are proceeding more or less concurrentlywith the GTW investigation. These include studies by the U.S. GeologicalSurvey for the City of Battle Creek and a study by CH0M H i l l for the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency.

Scope of this Study

Field work for this study phase was conducted during July, August andSeptember of 1983 and was limited to property owned by the Grand Trunk WesternRailroad. The objectives of the study were to:

-1- 0000744

hi

1. Refine knowledge of the vertical and horizontal extent of groundwatercontamination in the glacial drift aquifer near the Heavy Repair Shop.

2. Verify the direction of groundwater flow in both the glacial drift andbedrock aquifers near the repair shop.

3. Evaluate the hydraulic connection between the drift and bedrock aquifersat the shop.

4. Expand upon knowledge of groundwater quality near the old round house.

5. Evaluate the quality of soils near the old roundhouse and the marshallingyard.

Location

The area included in this study is in the eastern portion of the Battle Creekmetropolitan area and occupies portions of Section 5, Emmett Township (T2S,R7W) and Section 32 and 33, Pennfield Township (T1S, R7W). Emphasis wasplaced on the narrow zone along the railroad tracks extending from the heavyrepair shop northward through the marshalling yard. Figure 1 shows thelocations of important features in this area.

The study area is a flat terrace which separates rolling nil Is to the eastfrom the Battle Creek River and its floodplain to the west. Surface drainageon the terrace has been highly modified by storm sewers and artificialditches.

Methods

The principal data col lection activities during this study phase and theearlier phase involved construction of exploration borings and observationwells, collection of soil and water samples for chemical analysis, measurementof water levels and determination of in situ permeability. Each of thesetasks was supervised by, or conducted by. Environmental Data Inc. (EDI) staff.

Two drilling methods were used for exploration borings and well construction.The shallow glacial drift holes were constructed using a hoi low stem augermachine. Deep bedrock holes were constructed using hydraulic rotary methodsto bedrock and air rotary methods through the bedrock. Considerable care wasexercised to prevent contamination of the aquifer by dirty equipment or fromchemicals in soils or groundwater above the aquifer. Appendix A describes themethods used in more detail. Figure 2 shows the locations of the we! Isconstructed for this study and other wells of interest.

Observation wells constructed for this study have been numbered sequentiany(e.g. 1 through 9). Wells with a number and no letter suffix are theshallowest wells in a well cluster. The wells are referred to °Uher by theterminology used by the U.S. Geological Survey (i.e. G-l for Grand TrunkWestern welIs) or without the letter prefix. The prefix "GT" is used todesignate production wells owned by Grand Trunk Western. The numbering ofwells constructed by others conforms to the system used by the U.S. GeologicalSurvey (e.g. T-13 is the J3th wel 1 constructed by the U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency "TAT" investigation contractor).

Almost all of the water samples collected during this phase were obtained witha Kemmerer type sampling device after five casing volumes of water had beenpurged with a centrifugal pump. The sampling device was cleaned prior tosampling each well. Each sample was placed on ice immediately after collec-tion and the samples were delivered to EDI laboratories the same day.Appendix A contains a more complete description of the techniques used.

Soil samples were collected with a standard metal agricultural soil sampler.The sampler was washed with soapy water and rinsed with clean water betweeneach sampling. Two samples were collected at each site. One samole wasstored in a wide mouth glass bottle for laboratory evaluation with an organicvapor analyzer. The second sample was analyzed with gas chromatograph mas?spectrometer.

0000747

All volatile organic compounds were analyzed by the purge and trap gaschromatographic/mass spectrometer (GC/MS) method as described in the USEPApublication "Methods for Organic Chemical Analysis of Municipal and IndustrialWastewater" (method No. 624). At the beginning of each day that analyses areperformed, the GC/MS system is checked to ensure that acceptable performancecriteria are achieved for bromofluorobenzene. Five mill 1 liter sample aliquotswere purged for 22 minutes followed by 6 minutes of desorption onto a 1*SP-1000, 80/60 Carbopack B chromatographlc column. The CC was proqramnied from60 to 215°C at a rate of 12°C/min to achieve effective separation of volatilecompounds. Solid sediment samples were analyzed as above, except the purgingchamber was immersed in a water bath held at 703C to aid in transferringpurgeable organics onto the trap. The Internal standard method of analysiswas employed for both solid and liquid samples.

All base-neutral compounds were detected and analyzed by the aas chromato-graphic/mass spectrometer EPA method #625, taken frnm the same U5EPA pub-lication cited in the volatile procedure above. Mass spectrometer performancewas assured on each day of analysis by meeting the performance criteriarequired for decafluorotriphenyl phosphine. One liter volunes of sample wereadjusted to a pH of 11 or greater, followed by three serial extractions in aseparatory funnel with 100 ml. aliquots of methylene chloride. The extractswere combined and dried by pouring them through a column containing about 10cm. of anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was then concentrated to a finalvolume of 2 mis. in a water bath adjusted to 60 to 65rC. Immediately beforeinjection, deuterated anthracene was added to each sample as., an internalstandard. The samples were then injected onto a DB-5 fused silica capillarycolumn (30 m. x 0.25 mm) with the GC temperature programmed from 50 to 280°Cat a rate of 12° C/min. Base-neutral priority pollutant compounds weredetected and quantified from the data collected by the mass spectrometer.

The elevation of each observation well was determined using a self-levelinglevel. U.S. Geological Survey well number E-28 was used for a referencedatum. Survey circuit closure was within ;0.02 feet.

000074G-4-

Water level measuresents were made using the chalked-steel tdpe n<?thod. Thesemeasurements were mede on the same day as U.S. Geologic*! Survey measurementsin other observation wells.

In situ permeabi 1 ity measurements were made wi th a specially constructedinstrument consisting of a float operated rheostat, vacuum or pressure pump,and a portable computer. This device al lowed the measurement of water levelchanges of *0.01 foot at 0.2 second intervals. Interpretation of test resultsrelied upon the method described by Schnrid (1967).

RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION

Geology

Two types of geologic formations underlie the study area. The oldest forma-tion of interest is the Marshall Sandstone, which forms th*? bedrock. Overly-ing this sandstone bsdrock are glacial deposits consisting cf unconsolidatedsand, gravel and cl«y. A l l u v i a l material is likely present in the BattleCreek river floodplain located west of the study area, but the nature of thesedeposits has not bee« examined.

The Marshall Formation near the heavy repair shop is a fine to very finegrained, siIty to cUyey sandstone. Interbedded with the sandstone is darkgrey and black shal*. North of the repair shop (e.g. near the old roundhouse) the sandstone fs somewhat coarser gained. The sandstone strata of theMarshall Formation are an important aquifer in this area. The shale layersmay divide the sandstone formation into several distinct aquifers, but mostbedrock wells are ope* to more than one sandstone laypr.

The sandstone and shale strata are inclined toward the north. The rate of dipis approximately 16 feet per mile (.003 feet per foot). This inclination ofthe bedrock formation means that an individual stratum would be about 24 feetdeeper at the Verona uell field than it would be at the heavy repair shop.

000074,')-5-

Bedrock fractures are an important feature since water wellb which intersectfractures are known to produce more water than welli that do not intersectfractures. Well 8A was the only well constructed for this study that, pene-trated an obvious fracture. The location or orientation of individualfractures cannot be predicted with the available information.

The bedrock surface is quite irregular and several buried bedrocV valleys havebeen mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey. One of these valleys exists underthe Heavy Repair Shop. Material penetrated during the construction of recentwells suggests that this particular bedrock valley has been partly filled-inwith clay or clayey material. Figure 3 depicts the location of this valley.

Overlying the bedrock throughout the study area are glacial deposits. Tnesedeposits range from well sorted material (e.g., clay, sand, gravel) t? verypoorly sorted material (e.g., sandy, silty clay). In general, the rr*teriallying directly on the bedrock near the heavy repair shoo is clay or clayeymaterial, but near the old round house, bedrock is overlain by sand or sandand gravel. The sand or sand and gravel formations are high yielding aquiferswhere saturated.

The general relationship between glacial deposits and bedrock formations isshown in Figure 4.

The original land surface has been regraded throughout the study area. Fillmaterial was encountered during the construction of several observation wellsto depths of about 15 feet.

Groundwater Flow Conditions

Local aquifers are recharged by precipitation which infiltrates the landsurface. Some of the water found in aquifers below GTW property may haveresulted from recharge taking place in the uplands more than one mile east.The U.S. Geological Survey estimates that the average annual precipitationhere is 33 inches and that 8 to 12 Inches of this total infiltrates andrecharges local aquifers.

Water level measurements made during this study and studies by the USGS showthat groundwater moves toward the Battle Creek River except for an area

surrounding the Verona well field. Pumpage from the well field has created acone of depression which appears to divert the flow of groundwater as much as0.5 to 1 mile away from the well field. The regional flow pattern as itexisted in August 1982 1s shown in Figure 5 which is reproduced from a USG5report (U5GS 1982, Fig. 3). Of special interest is the groundwater dividewhich extends approximately parallel to and just south of Emmett Street.Groundwater south of the divide flows westerly toward the river, but north ofthe divide the flow is toward the Verona well field. The position of thisdivide will change in response to changes in groundwater pumpage and precipi-tation.

Groundwater elevation measurements (see Table 1) made on September 2, 1983,confirm that groundwater flow 1n the glacial drift aquifer is westerly at the

v_ieavy repair shop and moves directly toward the Battle Creek River. Thegradient at this location is about 10 feet per mile (.002 feet per foot).Figure 6 illustrates the Inferred flow direction 1n the glacial drift aquifer.The flow in the sandstone bedrock aquifer is westerly to southwesterly at therepair shop with a gradient of 21 feet per mile (.004 feet per foot),

~ The water level measurements show that the water level elevation is differentin the bedrock aquifer compared to the glacial drift aquifer. A water leveldifference between two aquifers shows that there is a potential forgroundwater to flow from the aquifer having the higher water level to the

^ aquifer having the lower water level. The bedrock aquifer water level isve the glacial drift aquifer water level at some locations and below at

others.

"-'From past measurements near the repair shop, it is anticipated that thevertical water level gradient and gradient direction may change with time, andany change will be due to variations 1n local precipitation and punpage. The

-7-0000753

vertical gradient near the Verona well field is typically downward in responseto pumping from the Verona well field. This fact, coupled with the absence ofclayey material between the shallow glacial drift aquifer and the sandstonebedrock aquifer, means that groundwater can readily move downward into thebedrock aquifer. While movement between the two aquifers is possible at theVerona well field, this type of movement is greatly inhibited near th* heavyrepair shop because of the clay which separates the two aquifers.

During the September 1983 water level measurement, the water level of the oilskimming pond was higher than adjacent groundwater by 1.28 feet. The waterlevel of the Battle Creek River oxbow west of the repair shop was 0.17 feetbelow the water level in Well No. 5.

One of the important aquifer characteristics which influences the rate atwhich water can move through an aquifer is permeability. Permeability (orhydraulic conductivity) is a measure of the ability of water to pass throughthe aquifer. Twelve in-situ permeability tests were performed during thisstudy to provide an estimate of the permeability of both the bedrock andglacial drift aquifers. The results of these tests, as summarized in Table 2,show that the glacial drift aquifer at the repair shop is considerably morepermeable than the underlying bedrock aquifer. However, the bedrock at well9-A is very permeable.

The average velocity of groundwater in the glacial drift aquifer at the repairshop can be estimated by the following relationship:

Where:v * average velocity

K « permeability (average 60.1 ft/day)

^ h « hydraulic gradient (0.002)£ « porosity (0.2)

With this relationship, the calculated average velocity is .6 feet per day.At this rate, a molecule of water would require over 360 days to migrate fromthe repair shop to the west side of the railroad tracks.

Groundwater Quality

A considerable number of water samples have been analyzed by government andprivate laboratories since the contamination problem was first discovered.These analyses have refined the understanding of the area impacted bycontamination and the types of contaminants. The principal contaminants

found are in a class described as volatile chlorinated organic compounds.These compounds are primari1y used as solvents for fats, waxes, oils andgreases.

Early information on the area near the heavy repair shop suggested thatcontamination was principally restricted to the shallow glacial drift aquiferbecause of the clay material which separates the shallow sand and gravelaquifer from the sandstone bedrock aquifer. This hypothesis has been con-firmed by recently collected geologic and water quality information. Table 3contains the results of recent chemical analyses for volatile organic com-pounds. These analyses show that the glacial drift aquifer has been impactedby spills or leaks, but the sandstone bedrock aquifer is virtually unimpacted.

Samples from each of the 22 on-site wells listed in Table 3 were also analyzedfor 47 base-neutral fraction priority pollutants. These compounds were notdetected (at a detection limit of 0.01 milligrams per liter) in most of thesamples except as shown in Table 4. Except for naphthalene, the other com-pounds found are classified as "plasticizers" which are not used in the repairshop. The presence of phthalate in the bedrock aquifer, but minimal distri-bution in the glacial drift aquifer, suggests that this material did notoriginate on GTW property.

The available chemical analyses from all groundwater samples collected in theVerona well field and surrounding area were examined to determine if plumepatterns might provide a clue to the source of chemicals. A separate map wasprepared showing the distribution of wells impacted by each chemical found todate. It is not currently possible to subdivide the analyses to show theextent of chemical plumes in different aquifers or at one point in time. Theresults of this effort are summarized in Figures 7 through 12. These figuresare interpreted to show the following:

1. The plume of chemicals impacting the Verona well field is separate anddistinct from the plume found at the heavy repair shop. Therefore, theheavy repair shop contaminants are not contributing to the problem at theVerona well field.

2. The groundwater divide which roughly parallels Emmett Street has beenlocated south of the Thomas Solvent Annex site most of the time but thelocation has shifted at times to allow southwestward migration of somechemicals.

Soil Quality

Soil samples were collected and analyzed by MDNR from GTW property prior tothis study phase. The first samples were collected adjacent to the heavyrepair shop from well number 1 which is located near a leak from a solventstorage tank. The soils to a depth of 16 feet were found to be contaminatedby solvents, principally 1,1,1-Trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA), as shown in Table5.

In addition, surface soil samples were collected along 6 railroad switchesnorth of Emmett Street by DNR. These locations are shown in Figure 2.Analysis of these samples did not detect the presence of any volatile organiccompounds.

An expanded soi 1 sampling program was implemented by GTW because of thepossibility that materials carried by the railroad may have been lost in theMarshal ling Yard.

Soil sample sites were selected where large spills or leaks would likelyaccumulate. The samples were collected in open ditches near the discharge endof pipes which drain adjacent areas both on and off Grand Trunk Westernproperty. Soils directly below the railroad tracks were not sampled becauseof the thick ballast. The sites are described in Table 6 and general loca-tions are shown in Figure 2.

Eleven of the twelve soil samples collected during this study phase containedlow levels of volatile organic compounds. Trichloroethylene was the compoundfound most often as shown in Table 7. These results suggest that volatileorganic compounds may have been lost in the area of the old roundhouse andmarshalling yard, but the observed concentrations are so low that they may bebackground levels. These low levels of chemicals may also come from propertyadjacent to the railroad property as samples 9, 10 and 12 were collected atlocations which receive off-site runoff.

CO (1) A second "freon" compound, I,lt2-trich1oro-l,2v2-trifluoroethane, at 0.31 mg/kg was found in this sample.This compound is not an ERA priority pollutant.

The above results are in miUigrams per kilogram or parts per million.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

No evidence was found during this investigation that chemicals found ingroundwater at the heavy repair shop have contributed to the contaminant plumeimpacting the Verona well field. The plume at the heavy repair shop ismigrating toward the Battle Creek River, and is restricted to the generalvicinity of the shop. In addition, the chemicals are almost exclusivelylimited to the glacial drift aquifer because of the clay zone which separatesthe glacial drift aquifer from the sandstone bedrock aquifer.

Soil samples collected during this study contain low levels of volatileorganic compounds but these levels may be only background levels. Some ofthese compounds have migrated to GTW property from off-site sources.

METHODS FOR OBSERVATION HELL CONSTRUCTION AND SAMPLE COLLECTION

0000775

BEDROCK WELLS

All bedrock wells were constructed using^standard hydraulic rotary techniquesto produce an open hole for the four-inch casing and air rotary techniques toproduce an open hole in the bedrock formation after casing had been installed.Procedures that were followed for each of the wells except 1-c were asfollows:

1. The drilling rig and all materials were washed thoroughly and rinsed withclean water prior to entering the job site. The casing was capped withaluminum foil after being washed and was stored on the water truck untilplaced in the hole.

2. All drilling water was obtained from an uncontaminated off-site source(the driller's water well).

3. No thread compound was used on casing threads or drill rod joints.

4. The open hole was terminated when solid sandstone was encountered.Casing was installed at this point ana grouted in-place. Groutingconsisted of the following steps:

a. The casing was solidly seated on the bottom of the open hole and themud inside the casing flushed using air and clean water.

b. Forty gallons (30 gal 1n Well 9-A) of neat cement grout was mixedand poured into the casing. The mixture consisted of one 94 poundbag of Portland Type IA cement to 10 gallons of water.

c. A wiper plug was positioned above the grout and forced to the baseof the casing with water pressure and/or the drill rods.

d. The casing was forced into the bedrock several inches with a rigoperated hammer to assure a seal.

e. The casing was filled with clear water, capped and allowed to restfor approximately 24 hours.

A-l 000077G

5. All equipment, including drill rods and mud pit, were flushed with cleanwater.

6. After the cement had cured, the water was flushed from the casing and anopen hole constructed below the casing.

7. Each well was developed by pumping with air until relatively particle-free water was produced.

8. A locked, vented cap was installed on each well.

Well 1-C was constructed in a similar manner except the casing was not groutedin place. The casing In this well was driven several feet into the bedrock.The casing was not cleaned prior to installation.

GLACIAL DRIFT WELLS

The glacial drift wells were constructed using hollow-stem auger techniques.The procedures used for wells 5, 7, 8 and 9 were as follows:

1. The drilling machine and augers were cleaned with soapy water and thor-oughly rinsed prior to entering the study area. The augers were scrubbedwith soapy water and rinsed with clean water between each hole. Thecasing was also cleaned and rinsed prior to being brought to the drillsite. The casing was stored on a trailer until placed in the hole.

2. Drilling water was obtained from an uncontaminated source (Grand TrunkWestern water supply).

3. No thread compound was used on the casing threads. No pipe was cut orthreaded on-site.

4. An exploration hole to obtain split spoon cores was constructed prior toinstallation of the well. This exploration hole was plugged withcuttings and bentonite.

A-2 0000777

5. The well was installed using the following techniques:

a. The augers were advanced to one foot above the desired top of thescreen and sediment in the augers flushed with clean water.

b. Casing and screen were lowered to the bottom of the hole and driveninto undisturbed sediments until the top of the screen was one footbelow the augered hole.

c. The augers were pulled back approximately one foot and bentonitepellets (Volclay) dropped into the annular space as the augers werebeing removed. Approximately three to five feet of annular spacewas filled with the bentonite pellets.

d. The augers were removed from the hole and the annular space abovethe bentonite was backfilled with native soils and bentonite.

6. Each well was developed by pumping it with a rig operated rod pump untilrelatively particle free water was produced.

7. A vented cap with a padlock was installed on each well.

Glacial drift wells 1 through 4A were installed using the same basic tech-niques except:

1. Bentonite seals using bentonite pellets were not installed in the annularspace.

2. The casing and screen were not driven below the augered hole.

3. The augers and casing were not cleaned prior to construction of eachwell.

4. Thread compound may have been used on casing joints. Some threads mayhave been cut on-site using thread cutting lubricant.

A-30000778

WELL SAMPLING PROCEDURE

Water samples for laboratory analysis were collected with care to assure thesample was representative of the formation tapped by the well. With theexception of Well 8, which was a low producer, the sample was collected aftera minimum of five casing volumes of water had been removed from the well. Thesample collection procedure consisted of the following steps:

1. The quantity of stagnant water in the well was determined.

2. A centrifugal pump was used to remove at least five times the quantity ofstagnant water in the casing (see the form following this section).

3. A brass Kemmerer type sampler was used to collect the water sample.Teflon tape was used to cover the rubber stoppers. Each sample wascollected in the open hole section of the well or directly above thescreen.

4. Samples for volatile organic analysis were place in standard 40 ml vials.Care was taken to assure that the bottle did not have an air bubble.Duplicate samples were collected from each well.

5. A one-gallon sample was collected for analysis of base neutral compounds.

6. Samples were stored on Ice Immediately after collection and delivered tothe EDI laboratory the same day collected.

Three wells could not be sampled as described above because of low yield or anobstructed casing which prevented use of the Kemmerer sampler. For wells 4and T-13, a small diameter copper bailer with an open top and bottom checkvalve was used to collect the sample. Well #8 was both purged and sampledwith the copper bailer.
