Dear Sirs:

The following narrative outlines the events leading to and involving the remediation of the JP-4 spill at Holloman Air Force Base per the Emergency Penni t dated July 15, 199-L ....-:--------

Immediately after the spill was detected, a berm was placed to contain the spill in a strip approximately 20' x 320' (see attachment "A"). On July 10, 1992, David Fitzpatrick of IHP Industrial, Inc., took soil samples per directions from Sargents, Haskins & Beckwith to them for TCLP testing (attachment "B").

Lee Nelson (HPCC) and· Max Johnson (COE) coordinated with HRHB personnel to approve Hensel Phelps Safety Engineer, David Thiel, to oversee the remediation. David Thiel's qualificiations are that he has attended an OSHA, 40 hour, Hazardous Nate rials Training Course (see attachment "C") . The state also agreed that Hensel Phelp's H.N.U. Photoionization Detector with a 10.2 eV probe was satisfactory. Once these agreements were made, a meeting was scheduled with Hensel Phelp's/David Thiel, Corps of Engineer's/Max Johnson, and Base Environmental' s/Roger Wilkson, at the spill site to formulate a plan for the soil gas study and the limits for soil removal. Attached are the notes of that meeting held on July 21, 1992 and subsequent notes of the testing that was done (see attachment "D") .

Due to the low ppm levels detected at the spill site and the storage site, another meeting was scheduled at the site with David Thiel, Max Johnson, and Roger Wilkson for August 3, 1992. At that meeting we ,walked the site and discussed the soil test levels. Ne agreed that the remediation was satisfactory pending state approval.

Danley Construction Company will restore the site once \-le receive HRMB approval.

Sincerely,

f£/A!~ David K. Thiel Safety Engineer Hensel Phelps Construction

Re: Results of TCLP Analyses of Soil Material JP-4 Fuel Spill Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico

Gentlemen:

SHB Job No. E92-4068

On July 10, 1992, Sergent, Hauskins and Beckwith Geotechnical Engineers, Inc. (SHB) received from IHP Industrial, Inc., 4 soil samples of material removed from the JP-4 jet fuel spill area at Holloman Air Force Base. The samples were submitted to Westech Laboratories, Inc. in El Paso, Texas for analysis of TCLP organic volatiles and TCLP lead. The four samples were composited before being analyzed at the laboratory.

The analytical results are tabulated below:
