I INTRODUCTION
On June 24 1985 the NUS Corporation Field Investigation Team (FIT) was requested to conduct a Preliminary Assessment and Site Inspection of Cheshire Associates Property in Cheshire Connecticut by the Waste Management Division of the Region I United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) under Technical Directive Document (TDD) FI-8506-22 This let ter report fulfills the requirements of the Site Inspection portion of the TDD
This site was identified through a Preliminary Assessment and file search of the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (CT DEP) Hazardous Waste and Water Compliance Division files for another s i te Airpax Corporaton Plant 1
The documents prepared within comply with requirements set forth under EPA Superfund Legislation (CERCLA) However they do not necessarily fulfill the requirements of other EPA regulations such as RCRA The Site Inspection is only intended to provide a preliminary screening of sites and to facil i tate site prioritization by EPA It is a limited effort and is not intended to supplant a more detailed investigation
n SITE DESCRIPTION
The Cheshire Associates Property is a fifteen acre facility located in Cheshire Connecticut The property is in a low-lying wetland area in the Ten Mile River watershed (Figure 1) The property is bordered by West Johnson Avenue to the south a freshwater wetland to the west and private and commercial properties to the north and east The Cheshire Industrial Park which houses seven companies is located 1000 feet south of the site (Appendix E)
The property is comprised of one building a parking lot for employees and two ponds The larger of the two ponds is located west of the building and the small pond is located to the northwest An underground 10000 gallon 4 fuel oil tank is located near the northwest corner of the building An underground drain pipe runs from one of two in-ground concrete pits inside the building to the large pond (Figure 2) The age and precise location of the underground line and pits is unknown It is believed they were utilized for process waste disposal from plastics molding operations until 1980

The property is owned by Cheshire Associates a New York partnership which operates through Summit Reality and Development Corporation in Florida (1) Airpax Corporation Plant 2 a subsidiary of the North American Phillips Corporation currently leases the property (1)
Land use in the area includes farms and woodlands as well as residential and commerical development In the past three decades much of the farmland has been converted to residential and commercial uses (2) The population of the town of Cheshire is 22850
SITE HISTORY
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates that the building on the property was constructed by Cheshire Associates in 1966 and has been leased to a variety of tenants since that t ime Cheshire Associates has never occupied the s i te Upon completion of the building in 1966 it was leased to Valley National Corporation until May 1979 The Valley National Corporation was involved in plastics molding and packaging operations (34 20)
Cheshire Molding Company leased the property after it was vacated by Valley National File information indicates Cheshire Molding Company leased the property shortly after May 1979 until the company declared bankruptcy sometime in 1979 or 1980 The exact dates of occupancy are also unknown Cheshire Molding Company was also reportedly involved in plastic and styrofoam molding operations They are also reported to have sublet a portion of the building to a tool machine company (3) It is believed that the concrete pit and underground drain on the site were utilized for process wastes during the t ime period 1966 through 1980
After the property was vacated by Cheshire Molding Company the General Electric Company (GE) in Plainville Connecticut expressed interest in purchasing the property Surface discoloration of soil at the rear of the building led GE personnel to believe there might be groundwater contamination Based upon this GE commisioned a groundwater study through a consultant Ground Water Associates (GWA) Inc (5) Twenty-one PVC cased overburden wells and five steel cased overburden wells were installed All of the PVC cased wells and three of the steel cased wells yielded water from the overburden aquifer Ten PVC and three steel cased wells were left intact at the completion of the study (Figure 2) Soil samples were also collected by augering during the installation of the PVC wells The surface water in small and large ponds was also sampled

Sample analyses were not conducted at all well locations due to an early termination of the study by GE However analysis for total hydrocarbons was performed for all samples collected Several samples were also analyzed for total volatile organics and one sample was analyzed for full Hazardous Substance List (HSL) compounds and radioactive isotopes Analytical results from the GWA report are presented in Appendix B and Figure 2 Hydrocarbon levels in water ranged from 01 to 30 parts per million (ppm) and from lt10 to 9 ppm in soil Hydrocarbon contaminated soil was detected up to 18 feet below ground surface (Figure 3) Gross alpha and gross beta radiation levels were found in excess of the EPA recommended standards for drinking water in one sample for which this analysis was conducted
The GWA study concluded that groundwater at the site was not potable and that existing or future potable water supplies near the si te were endangered Based upon infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography analysis of the water samples the contamination detected suggested a reasonable spectral identification as No 2 fuel oil The greatest degree of hydrocarbon contamination in soil was detected at the northwest corner of the building near the vicinity of the underground tank The contamination detected did not match fuel oil in the tank at the time of the study however the existing tank had replaced a previously used tank at the s i te The study also noted that the extent of contamination sugggested a more rapid movement than that which could be explained based upon the permeability of soils on si te Other mechanisms of transport may include movement of groundwater along rock fissures GWA also recommended further metals and radioactivity analyses based upon elevated levels of these substances in groundwater Subsequently GE declined to purchase the property GE did not release the report to Cheshire Associates or Airpax Corporation but upon request released the report to the US EPA In January 1982 Airpax Corporation leased the property from Cheshire Associates and is the current lessee of the property
Airpax Corporation utilized the West Johnson Avenue Plant 2 location to relocate primary machining processes and offices from the nearby Airpax Corporation Plant 1 location on Knotter Drive 2000 feet southwest of the si te Prior to utilization of the in-ground concrete collection pits Airpax Corporation closed the drain line connection and resealed the pits All work was conducted under the guidance of the CT DEP The underground fuel storage tank was also inspected by the Connecticut Refining Company The tank was cleaned pressure tested 5 psi tes t ) visually inspected and found to be in sound condition (1) The drain line to the ponds was sealed The concrete pits were pumped out and resealed and are currently used in the waste t rea tment process (18)

Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWO
The property is owned by Cheshire Associates a New York partnership which operates through Summit Reality and Development Corporation in Florida (1) Airpax Corporation Plant 2 a subsidiary of the North American Phillips Corporation currently leases the property (1)
Land use in the area includes farms and woodlands as well as residential and commerical development In the past three decades much of the farmland has been converted to residential and commercial uses (2) The population of the town of Cheshire is 22850
SITE HISTORY
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates that the building on the property was constructed by Cheshire Associates in 1966 and has been leased to a variety of tenants since that t ime Cheshire Associates has never occupied the s i te Upon completion of the building in 1966 it was leased to Valley National Corporation until May 1979 The Valley National Corporation was involved in plastics molding and packaging operations (34 20)
Cheshire Molding Company leased the property after it was vacated by Valley National File information indicates Cheshire Molding Company leased the property shortly after May 1979 until the company declared bankruptcy sometime in 1979 or 1980 The exact dates of occupancy are also unknown Cheshire Molding Company was also reportedly involved in plastic and styrofoam molding operations They are also reported to have sublet a portion of the building to a tool machine company (3) It is believed that the concrete pit and underground drain on the site were utilized for process wastes during the t ime period 1966 through 1980
After the property was vacated by Cheshire Molding Company the General Electric Company (GE) in Plainville Connecticut expressed interest in purchasing the property Surface discoloration of soil at the rear of the building led GE personnel to believe there might be groundwater contamination Based upon this GE commisioned a groundwater study through a consultant Ground Water Associates (GWA) Inc (5) Twenty-one PVC cased overburden wells and five steel cased overburden wells were installed All of the PVC cased wells and three of the steel cased wells yielded water from the overburden aquifer Ten PVC and three steel cased wells were left intact at the completion of the study (Figure 2) Soil samples were also collected by augering during the installation of the PVC wells The surface water in small and large ponds was also sampled

Sample analyses were not conducted at all well locations due to an early termination of the study by GE However analysis for total hydrocarbons was performed for all samples collected Several samples were also analyzed for total volatile organics and one sample was analyzed for full Hazardous Substance List (HSL) compounds and radioactive isotopes Analytical results from the GWA report are presented in Appendix B and Figure 2 Hydrocarbon levels in water ranged from 01 to 30 parts per million (ppm) and from lt10 to 9 ppm in soil Hydrocarbon contaminated soil was detected up to 18 feet below ground surface (Figure 3) Gross alpha and gross beta radiation levels were found in excess of the EPA recommended standards for drinking water in one sample for which this analysis was conducted
The GWA study concluded that groundwater at the site was not potable and that existing or future potable water supplies near the si te were endangered Based upon infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography analysis of the water samples the contamination detected suggested a reasonable spectral identification as No 2 fuel oil The greatest degree of hydrocarbon contamination in soil was detected at the northwest corner of the building near the vicinity of the underground tank The contamination detected did not match fuel oil in the tank at the time of the study however the existing tank had replaced a previously used tank at the s i te The study also noted that the extent of contamination sugggested a more rapid movement than that which could be explained based upon the permeability of soils on si te Other mechanisms of transport may include movement of groundwater along rock fissures GWA also recommended further metals and radioactivity analyses based upon elevated levels of these substances in groundwater Subsequently GE declined to purchase the property GE did not release the report to Cheshire Associates or Airpax Corporation but upon request released the report to the US EPA In January 1982 Airpax Corporation leased the property from Cheshire Associates and is the current lessee of the property
Airpax Corporation utilized the West Johnson Avenue Plant 2 location to relocate primary machining processes and offices from the nearby Airpax Corporation Plant 1 location on Knotter Drive 2000 feet southwest of the si te Prior to utilization of the in-ground concrete collection pits Airpax Corporation closed the drain line connection and resealed the pits All work was conducted under the guidance of the CT DEP The underground fuel storage tank was also inspected by the Connecticut Refining Company The tank was cleaned pressure tested 5 psi tes t ) visually inspected and found to be in sound condition (1) The drain line to the ponds was sealed The concrete pits were pumped out and resealed and are currently used in the waste t rea tment process (18)

Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE THREE
Sample analyses were not conducted at all well locations due to an early termination of the study by GE However analysis for total hydrocarbons was performed for all samples collected Several samples were also analyzed for total volatile organics and one sample was analyzed for full Hazardous Substance List (HSL) compounds and radioactive isotopes Analytical results from the GWA report are presented in Appendix B and Figure 2 Hydrocarbon levels in water ranged from 01 to 30 parts per million (ppm) and from lt10 to 9 ppm in soil Hydrocarbon contaminated soil was detected up to 18 feet below ground surface (Figure 3) Gross alpha and gross beta radiation levels were found in excess of the EPA recommended standards for drinking water in one sample for which this analysis was conducted
The GWA study concluded that groundwater at the site was not potable and that existing or future potable water supplies near the si te were endangered Based upon infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography analysis of the water samples the contamination detected suggested a reasonable spectral identification as No 2 fuel oil The greatest degree of hydrocarbon contamination in soil was detected at the northwest corner of the building near the vicinity of the underground tank The contamination detected did not match fuel oil in the tank at the time of the study however the existing tank had replaced a previously used tank at the s i te The study also noted that the extent of contamination sugggested a more rapid movement than that which could be explained based upon the permeability of soils on si te Other mechanisms of transport may include movement of groundwater along rock fissures GWA also recommended further metals and radioactivity analyses based upon elevated levels of these substances in groundwater Subsequently GE declined to purchase the property GE did not release the report to Cheshire Associates or Airpax Corporation but upon request released the report to the US EPA In January 1982 Airpax Corporation leased the property from Cheshire Associates and is the current lessee of the property
Airpax Corporation utilized the West Johnson Avenue Plant 2 location to relocate primary machining processes and offices from the nearby Airpax Corporation Plant 1 location on Knotter Drive 2000 feet southwest of the si te Prior to utilization of the in-ground concrete collection pits Airpax Corporation closed the drain line connection and resealed the pits All work was conducted under the guidance of the CT DEP The underground fuel storage tank was also inspected by the Connecticut Refining Company The tank was cleaned pressure tested 5 psi tes t ) visually inspected and found to be in sound condition (1) The drain line to the ponds was sealed The concrete pits were pumped out and resealed and are currently used in the waste t rea tment process (18)

Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FOUR
Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIVE
Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIVE
Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIX
A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Airpax Corporation manufactures electro-mechanical and electronic devices primarily timing devices and motors Approximately 120 people are employed at this location Processes include tumbling molding etching welding dipping painting and cleaning of parts Substances used in these processes are acids alkalines organic solvents derusters and oil Brass (copper and tin) aluminum copper steel (iron and lead) and stainless steel (chromium) are also used in various processes (6)
Wastewater from the tumbling processes only is t rea ted on s i te All other process water is disposed of through a licensed t ransporter Onsite t rea tment consists of precipitation of heavy metals in series in the concrete pits Treated wastewater is discharged via the city sewer system and sludge is periodically pumped out of the pits and disposed of via a licensed hauler The process is being conducted under an interim permit with the CT DEP Sampling of wastewater is conducted every 30 days and the results submitted to the CT DEP (18)
In August of 1982 a CT DEP Water Compliance inspector visited Airpax Corporation Plant 2 No problems were noted with plant operations
In February of 1983 Airpax personnel discovered the three steel cased monitoring wells in a heavily vegetated area of the property Samples from each well were collected and analyzed for a limited range of volatile organic compounds Methylene chloride 11-dichloroethane 111-trichIoroethane 1122-tetrachloroethyIene and heptane (C-7) were detected at concentrations ranging from 18 to 119 parts per billion (ppb) Appendix C Following receipt of the results a representative from Airpax Corporation contacted the CT DEP Water Compliance Unit and arranged a meeting in April 4 1983 between the CT DEP Airpax Corporation and a legal counsel for Cheshire Associates the property owners Site history and analytical data acquired by Airpax Corporation were discussed With respect to possible sources of contamination it was noted at the meeting that the CT Department of Transportation (DOT) owns property adjacent to the s i te This point was raised in light of recent newspaper reports regarding the burial of waste at DOT si tes However these allegations with respect to the DOT property near the si te were never substantiated
Following the meeting the CT DEP conducted a site visit and sampling of nearby residential wells as well as a review of the GE report Two areas of visible stained soil were noted during the inspection On April 24 1983 two adjacent residential wells were sampled by the Chesprocott Health Distr ict Trace levels of 111-trichloroethane tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene were detected at the Frano residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue No contamination was detected at the Fusco residence at 657 West Johnson Avenue at this t ime
The residence at 675 West Johnson Avenue is owned by the Farmington Industrial Park (FIP) The owner currently is planning to remove the home rental unit and build a commercial building in its place

Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIVE
Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods

C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIVE
Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIX
A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIVE
Based upon information acquired the CT DEP issued two consent agreements in September 1983 one with the landowner Cheshire Associates and one with the North American Phillips Corporation the parent company of the lessee Airpax Corporation The consent agreement No 3581 with Cheshire Associates was finalized June 7 1984 This agreement required that on or before June 30 1984 contaminated soil along the eastern side of the building be removed and that private wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue be monitored on a semishyannual basis for 111-trichioroethane trichloroethylene tetrachloroethylene benzene toluene and meta ortho- and para-xylene The consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation required testing of the underground storage tank on s i te
Approximately 20 cubic yards of soil contaminated with 22 to 138 ppb of tetrachloroethylene and 0021 to 632 oil were excavated from three locations on the property on October 19 1983 Soil was excavated to depths of 5 to 12 inches The contaminated soil was disposed of through Sealand Environmental Services Inc (1) However the effectiveness of the soil excavation has not been documented
Analyses of groundwater samples from the private residences at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been conducted by Northeast Laboratories for samples collected 62984 and 11885 and 61285 Results for January 1986 were not available from the CT DEP at the t ime of this report A summary of this analytical data along with Chesprocott Health District data is presented in Appendix D Trichloroethylene 111-trichioroethane tetrachloroethylene 1122-tetrachloroethane benzene toluene and xylenes have been detected in ranges from 051 to 69 ppb The January 1985 sampling round detected benzene levels of 12 and 19 ppb above the 1 ppb recommended drinking water standard Resampling by the Chesprocott Health District in June 1985 did not detect the presence of benzene
In response to the consent agreement between the CT DEP and the North American Phillips Corporation Airpax Corporation furnished information on the testing of the underground storage tank by the Connecticut Refining Company in September 1982 As previously noted the visual inspection and pressure t e s t did not detect any deficiencies with the tank The age of the tank is unknown
The Chesprocott Health District conducted a water supply testing program from June 1 1984 through May 31 1985 This study identified four areas with volatile organic compounds in groundwater above recommended guidelines for drinking water within three miles of the site (7) (Figure 4) The Chesprocott study did not discuss possible sources of contamination as this was beyond the scope of the study

A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods

C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIX
A Preliminary Assessment (PA) of Airpax Corporation Plants 1 and 2 was completed on May 8 1984 by the CT DEP The PA was subsequently revised by NUSFIT and a separate PA completed for each Airpax facility to reflect differences in ownership and disposal practices at each facility A Site Inspection (51) of the Cheshire Associates Property was conducted in response to the PA recommendation for further investigative work and to determine contaminant levels of volatile organic inorganic and radioactive substances on site and in offsite residential wells
IV GEOLOGY
A) SURFICIAL GEOLOGY
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Connecticut Valley Lowland section of the New England Province Surficial deposits at the property consist of an irregular mantle of glacial till The till is red clayey to sandy and contains few boulders (7) Well logs for onsite wells have identified overburden materials as red to reddish brown fine sand silt and clay (5) In the vicinity of the onsite ponds west of the building surficial materials are swamp deposits of organic debris mixed with silt and sand (7)
B) BEDROCK GEOLOGY
The Cheshire Associates Property is located 09 miles east of the Mixville Fault Underlying bedrock is composed of the New Haven Arkose of Triassic age which consists of conglomeratic arkose interbedded with siltstone and intruded by West Rock Diabase of late Triassic age Bedrock west of the Mixville Fault is a combination of Prospect Gneiss of Ordovician or Devonian age and Southington Mountain Schist of Cambrian and Ordovician age (8) Weil logs for onsite wells have identified soft red siltstone and shale and hard red sandstone and possibly quartzite at depths of 85 to 25 feet (5) Bedrock is closer to the ground surface on the west side of the s i te where surficial topographic elevations are approximately ten feet below the rest of the site (Figure 1)
C) HYDROGEOLOGY
Stratified drift is a productive source of groundwater in the region capable of yielding 1 to 2000 gallons per minute (gpm) (2) Locally however stratified drift deposits yield only small to moderate quantities of water 1 to 100 gpm (10) Unconsolidated aquifers in stratified drift have a saturated thickness of ten feet or greater (9) Till provides only small quantities of water and is commonly inadequate in dry periods
V
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SEVEN
Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Bedrock aquifers underly the entire region They are capable of yielding 1 to 300 gpm and are considered a reliable source of groundwater (910) Bedrock wells are the most commonly utilized source of groundwater for private residences within 3 miles of the site (91011)
Groundwater in overburden is located within 0 to 7 feet of ground surface at low areas onsite (140 ft MSL) and 5 to 15 feet at high areas onsite (150 ft MSL) Based upon the GWA report it has been determined that groundwater flow in overburden onsite is west towards the large pond (Figure 5) From this point flow in overburden materials most likely follows the directional flow of surface waters in the Ten Mile River Watershed and the Quinnipiac River Basin From the ponds onsite surface water flow is southeasterly in Judd Brook to the Ten Mile River where flow becomes northeasterly Flow returns to a southeasterly direction at the intersection of the Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers (Figure 1) Insufficient data is available to definitively character ize the flow of groundwater in bedrock however these flow patterns may also follow the regional northeasterly to southeasterly gradients
MIGRATION PATHWAYS
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
The migration of contaminants to groundwater could have occurred via percolation of substances from contaminated soils on site into the underlying overburden and bedrock aquifer Permeability of the fine sand silt and clay in overburden is low to moderate However contamination of the bedrock well at the Fusco residence on West Johnson Avenue 200 southwest of the s i te indicates that a hydrologic connection between the overburden and bedrock aquifers exists (11617)
Portions of the towns of Cheshire Southington Wolcott and Waterbury lie within the three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property Water supplies within this area vary There are no municipal water supplies in the town of Wolcott (12) Water supplies are a mixture of municipal and private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Southington (101115) Water in the portion of Waterbury within three miles of Cheshire Associates Property is all derived from municipal supplies (14)
The majority of private wells in the towns of Cheshire and Wolcott are bedrock wells (101113) Private wells in Southington are a mixture of bedrock and overburden wells (15) Approximately 330 people within three miles of the Cheshire Associates Property utilize private wells (This number was derived by indentifying areas of private water supply within three miles of the site on the USGS topographic map counting the number of homes in this area and multiplying by 38 as per the Mitre Corporation Hazard Ranking System model)

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE EIGHT
Supply wells for Southington and Waterbury municipal water systems are located greater than three miles from the site (1415) Five supply wells for the South Central Connecticut Regional Water Authority are located on Blacks Road 21 miles southeast of the Cheshire Assciates Property These wells known as the North Cheshire Wellfield are 80 to 100 feet deep and are screened in stratified drift The population served by these wells is 229000 (11) Trichloroethylene (TCE) contamination in the North Cheshire Wellfield was identified in 1979 (12) The source of contamination has not yet been determined
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
Cheshire Associates Property is located within the Ten Mile River Watershed a subdivision of the larger Quinnipiac River Basin Two ponds are located onsite The small pond is located approximately 130 feet northwest of the building the large pond 225 feet to the west (Figures 2) Both ponds are adjacent to the Judd Brook wetland area which is located 400 feet west of the s i te Judd Brook flows southeasterly to the Ten Mile River The Ten Mile River follows a northeasterly course for two stream miles where it joins the Quinnipiac River The Quinnipiac River flows southeasterly for 25 stream miles and discharges into New Haven Harbor Floods in the Quinnipiac River Basin are most common in spring resulting from rapid snowmelt and rain (2)
There are several surface water migration paths associated with the Cheshire Assocites Property Contaminants are alleged to have entered the large pond by direct discharge from the interior concrete holding pit via a drain pipe to the pond (518) This disposal would have occurred prior to January 1982 during the t ime period the property was leased by the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Migration of contaminants to surface water may also have occurred due to runoff from contamianted soil Contaminated groundwater onsite may also discharge to the adjacent ponds
Surface water is not used for drinking water or irrigation purposes within three stream miles of the site (11) The Ten Mile and Quinnipiac Rivers are used for fishing (19)
C) AIR ROUTE
Information on file with the CT DEP indicates there are no reported air problems associated with this site (3)

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

VI TECHNICAL APPROACH
The site inspection for Cheshire Associates Property was conducted on June 25 and 26 1985 Prior to onsite activity Barbara Fel i t t i NUS Project Manager met with Richard Zipp Director of Environmental Affairs North American Phillips Corporation (parent company of Airpax Corporation) Elmer Madsen Technical Coordinator Airpax Corporation and Gerald Powers Facilities Manager Airpax Corporation Sampling procedures and rationale were discussed as well as the Cheshire Associates Property si te history
On June 25 residential groundwater samples were collected on West Johnson Avenue at 657 the Fusco residence and 675 the Frano residence (sample locations GW-3 and G W 4 respectively) to evaluate contaminant levels at receptor locations The Ostuno home (GW-5) on Peck Lane served as a background location (Note all sample locations are located on Figure 1 and 6) A duplicate sample (GW-3D) was collected from the Fusco home Water was purged for 10 to 15 minutes prior to sampling Samples collected from the Fusco and Frano homes were collected at the kitchen t ap after the areation device had been removed Samples were collected for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis The Fusco well is 96 feet deep and is a bedrock well (1617) The depth of the Frano well is unknown The Ostuno groundwater sample was collected from a tap located by the well head The well is 70 to 80 feet deep and is also a bedrock well (1617)
Onsite field activity was conducted on June 26 1985 A command post was established in the facility parking lot and background readings established with monitoring instruments A site reconnaissance was conducted which included air characterization with a Foxboro Century Systems Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA)-128 and screening with a Victoreen Thyac III for radiation levels No levels above background were detected Only three of the wells installed by GE were located these were steel cased wells noted in the GE report as wells 2 3 and 5 Following reconnaissance NUSFIT proceeded to conduct environmental sampling with monitoring continuing to be conducted at all sample locations A total of eighteen samples were collected for this site inspection including blanks duplicate and residential samples Samples included eight groundwater two surface water two sediment and six soil samples for volatile organic inorganic and radiation analysis (Figure 6) Surface water samples and one soil sample (location SS-3) were not analyzed for radiation levels

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Re bull Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants P0 D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE ELEVEN
A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TEN
Groundwater samples were collected from overburden wells 2 and 3 corresponding to NUS sampling locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively Upon removing the well cap initial readings of 20 parts per million (ppm) and 3 ppm methane equivalent were recorded at locations GW-1 and GW-2 respectively After venting no readings above background levels were detected however a strong kerosene odor was noted at location GW-1 The water level at location GW-1 was 525 feet below ground surface The water level at location GW-2 was at its piezometric level 12 inches above ground surface
Stat ic water level and total well depth were recorded and utilized to calculate one well volume Three well volumes were purged from each well The well at GW-1 was purged by hand bailing with a stainless steel check-valve bailer and the well at GW-2 was purged by hand pumping Water levels were then allowed to stabil ize Samples were collected with a stainless steel check-valve bailer Bailers used for sample collection were decontaminated prior to and after sampling with a water rinse methanol rinse and final water rinse Conductivity and pH measurements were recorded at the time of sample collection These groundwater sample locations were selected to assess levels of contamination onsite Two samples were collected from location GW-1 One sample was filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis (GW-1) and one was not (GW-1 A) This was done to assess the relative contribution of suspended particles to contaminant levels The sample from location GW-2 and the blank sample GW-6 were also filtered prior to preservation for inorganic analysis Samples for volatile organic analysis and all residential groundwater samples were not filtered
Subsurface soil samples were collected from the well locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and its duplicate SSS-2D corresponding to wells 2 and 3 respectively These samples were collected by hand augering to a depth of 18 to 2k inches The intent of augering was to assess subsurface contaminant levels and to sample soil similar to that found around the well screen to determine if soil was contributing to radiation levels previously detected in groundwater A composite sample was collected along the northeastern side of the building (location SS-3) to document the effectiveness of the soil excavation clean up at one of the excavation locations Soil was collected from four locations and mixed in a stainless steel bowl before sampling with the exception of the volatile organic sample This sample was collected directly from one location Augers trowels and bowls were decontaminated between sample locations with the same procedure used for bailers It should be noted tha t two additional areas of soil excavation were not sampled and that sampling at location SS-3 was limited in scope

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE ELEVEN
A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE ELEVEN
A surface water sample (SW-2) and sediment sample (SD-2) were collected from the large pond to evaluate contamination from possible direct discharges of process wastewater
Background soil surface water and sediment samples were collected from an upstream area along Burrett Road (Figure 1) Water and soil field blanks were also kept with field samples to document contamination that may have occurred during sample handling and in the laboratory Duplicate samples were collected for the appropriate sample medium One hundred microliters of mecuric chloride (HgCl ) solution was added to all VOA vials for aqueous samples prior to field work as a preservative to obtain a final concentration of approximately 16 ppm in the sample Aqueous samples for inorganic analysis were preserved with concentrated nitric acid (HNO) to achieve a final pH of less than two Samples which were filtered were preserved after filtering Proper chain of custody was maintained Split samples were collected and relinquished to Gerald Powers of Airpax Corporation at the end of the inspection activi ty
All field equipment was decontaminated prior to and after field activity with a water rinse alconox detergent wash and water rinse All decontamination water and water purged from onsite wells was containerized in a 55 gallon drum The drum was left on site and subsequently removed by a licensed t ransporter
VII RESULTS
Nine samples were collected onsite seven samples collected offsite and two blank samples were collected a total of eighteen samples
Fifteen of the eighteen samples collected were analyzed for Hazardous Substance List (HSL) volatile organic and inorganic substances under the Contract Laboratory Program (CLP) These samples included all onsite and offsite groundwater and sediment samples and all soil samples with the exception of onsite location SS-3 Radiation analysis for Radium 226 Radium 228 total alpha and total beta radiation levels were also conducted for these samples Radiation analysis is not routinely conducted but was utilized for this Site Inspection due to analytical results noted in the Ground Water Associates (GWA) report which identified radiation levels in groundwater above acceptable EPA cri teria (5 Appendix B) Samples were not analyzed for extractable organic substances as these had not been previously detected by GWA
Volatile organic analysis was conducted by Toxicon Laboratories Baton Rouge Louisiana inorganic analysis by Chemtech Consulting Group New York New York and radiation analysis by NUS Corporation Laboratories Pittsburgh Pennsylvania
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE TWELVE
The three remaining samples two surface water and one soil were screened in-house by NUS chemists for volatile organic substances utilizing a Photovac 10A10 gas chromatograph and for inorganic substances utilizing a Kevex 7000 x-ray fluorescence instrument The results garnered from screening techniques are qualitative and indicate the presence of contaminant substances only All screening results are reported in ranges as the results are not to be interpreted as being quanti tat ive
Analytical results from the site inspection are presented in Tables I through VII Previous analytical data is presented in Appendices B through D It should be noted that when undergoing data validation the presence of a substance in the laboratory andor field blank may cause the value of that substance in a field sample to be rejected (noted as R in the tables) When that occurs the presence or absence of that substance in a field sample cannot be determined unless the substance is present at levels substantially above (10X) the contamination found in the blank samples
A) GROUNDWATER ROUTE
Four volatile organic substances were identified in samples collected from the onsite overburden wells (GW-1 and GW-2) 11-dichioroethene 11-dichloroethane 111-trichloroethane and tetrachloroethene (Table 1) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 9003 and 1100J parts per billion (ppb) at location GW-1 and 200J ppb at location GW-2 (Note J indicates that based upon data validation quantitation has been determined to be approximate) Two of the compounds detected 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane had been previously identified in analysis by Newlands Sanitary Laboratory (NSL) commissioned by Airpax Corporation in February 1983 (Appendix C) Methylene chloride heptane and 1122-tetrachloroethene were also detected by NSL A comparison of trends in contaminant levels between NSL and NUSFIT data cannot be made as the correspondence of well locations to sample numbers is not known
Three of the four volatile organic substances detected in onsite groundwater samples were also detected in the downgradient groundwater samples collected from the Fusco and Frano residences on West Johnson Avenue (GW-3D and GW-4 respectively) 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane (Table I) 111-Trichloroethane was detected at the highest concentrations 20(J) and 37(J) ppb at locations GW-3 and GW-4 respectively One additional volatile organic compound was detected in groundwater at the Fusco residence (sample location GW-3) t rans-12shydichloroethene at 2 ppb No volatile organic substances were

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

NT Could not be positively identified as 02 fuel oil by infrared Spectra very similar to 02 fuel oil

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

detected in the background sample collected at the Ostuno residence (location GW-5) Of the compounds identified in the Fusco and Frano residential groundwater samples only 111-trichloroethane has been detected in previous monitoring of these wells (Appendix D) 111-Trichloroethane has consistently been detected in groundwater samples over the monitoring period of April 1983 to June 1985 in both the Frano and the Fusco wells
Inorganic analysis for groundwater samples is presented in Table II Seven inorganic substances were detected in onsite groundwater samples (locations GW-1 GW-1A GW-2) aluminum chromium barium manganese zinc iron and lead With the exception of barium these substances were present at levels above background (location GW-5) Comparison of samples GW-1 (filtered) and GW-1 A (unfiltered) indicates that inorganic levels were reduced due to the removal of suspended particles
Two inorganic substances copper at 57(3) and 37(J) ppb and barium at 57 and 53 ppb were detected in samples from the Fusco residence (GW-3 and GW-3D) and barium was detected at 106 ppb in the sample from the Frano residence (GW-^) Levels of barium at these locations were below the ^77 ppb barium detected at the background location (GW-6) The concentration of copper identified in the sample from the Fusco residence is above background levels but is below the recommended drinking water cri teria of 1 ppm (or 1000 ppb)
Gross alpha radiation levels detected in all groundwater samples were below the 15 picocuries per liter (pCiI) recommended level for drinking water
Also of concern for the groundwater migration pathway is the identification of contaminants in subsurface soils The results of volatile organic analysis for soils is presented in Table III Only one volatile organic substance benzene at 58(J) ppb was detected in soil at sample location SSS-2 near the large pond (Figure 5)
Inorganic analysis for soil samples is presented in Table IV Aluminum barium iron vanadium and arsenic concentrations at locations SSS-1 SSS-2 and SSS-2D were detected above background levels (sample location SS-^) Nickel and manganese were also detected above background levels at location SSS-1 With the exceptions of aluminum and vanadium inorganic substances detected onsite were generally one order of magnitude higher than concentrations in the background sample However the concentrations detected- for aluminum barium iron vanadium and nickel were below regional concentrations for soil (21)

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE FIFTEEN
production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Radiation analysis for all soil samples were within the range of naturally occuring radiation levels
B) SURFACE WATER ROUTE
No volatile organic substances were detected in surface water sediment or surface soil samples (Figure 6 Tables III V) In addition no inorganic substances above background levels were detected in the surface water sample collected from the large pond (SW-2)
Three inorganic substances were detected above sediment background levels in the sediment sample collected from the large pond (SD-2 Figure 6) Aluminum and iron were identified at levels slightly above background 6124 and 8863(J) ppm respectively at location SD-2 compared to 5087 and 8294(J) ppm for aluminum and iron at background location SD-1 Barium not detected at the background location was identified at 86 ppm at sample location SD-2 The detection limit for barium in sediment is 53 ppm The value of 86 ppm detected at location SD-2 is not significantly above the detection limit value
Barium and manganese were detected above background concentrations in the composite soil sample collected from the east side of the building (SS-3) Barium was identified at 70 to 130 ppm compared to 56 ppm at the background location and manganese at 410 to 770 ppm at SS-3 compared to 295(J) at background location SS-4 As previously noted barium concentrations are below regional concentrations for this substance (21) Lead was also detected in the range of 45 to 80 ppm at sample location SS-3 While this is below the value for lead at the background location 159(J) ppm it is above regional concentrations for lead of less than 10 ppm (20) The high concentration of lead in the sample collected at the background location may be due to its location along a road
Radiation levels detected in the sediment sample from the large pond (SD-2) were within the range of those identified in sediment at the background location (Table VII)
Vni CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contamination of soil and groundwater at the Cheshire Associates Property has been documented to have occurred prior to leasing of the property by the current tenant Airpax Corporation Plant 2 In addition Airpax Corporaton is in compliance with CT DEP regulations regarding the t rea tment and disposal of
C-583-7-6-28

production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

production wastewater Therefore contamination associated with this property is believed to be the result of waste disposal practices prior to 1980 Limited information is available regarding hazardous substances utilized and waste disposal practices of the previous lessees the Cheshire Molding Company and Valley National Corporation
Onsite contamination appears to be associated with three areas the discharge pipe from interior holding pits to the large pond contaminated onsite soils and the underground storage tank located northwest of the building The existing underground storage tank has been tested and shown to be in sound condition therefore a previously used tank may have been responsible for soil contamination in this area In addition complete confirmation of the effectiveness of soil excavation at the site has not been made In particular soil may not have been excavated to sufficient depth for complete removal Therefore it is possible that contaminated soils remain onsite as potential source areas
Three volatile organic substances 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane and 111-trichloroethane were detected in both onsite overburden wells and an offsite bedrock well The presence of similar contaminants in the bedrock and overburden aquifers indicates a hydrologic connection exists between these aquifers
Two private residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue have been documented to contain low concentrations of volatile organic substances Contamination at Cheshire Associates Property is believed to be the source of groundwater contamination of these residential wells as no other facilities have been identified north or northwest of the property in the area believed to be upgradient However it was noted at the time of the inspection that there are other manufacturing facilities located south of the property in the Cheshire Industrial Park within 300 feet south of the residences
Monitoring of the residential wells by Cheshire Associates has shown that the proposed maximum contaminant level (MCL) for benzene of 5 ppb and the recommended maximum contaminant level (RMCL) for benzene of 0 ppb were exceeded once during the January 1985 sampling Follow-up sampling by the Chesprocott Health District did not detect benzene Benzene values for samples collected by NUSFIT were rejected due to the presence of benzene in the laboratory and field blanks No other drinking water contaminant levels have been exceeded Since the initiation of monitoring of the residential wells in 1983 volatile organic substances have consistently been detected at both 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue
C-583-7-6-2S
MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

MEMO TO DON SMITH JULY 7 1986-PAGE SIXTEEN
The previous report by GWA of elevated radiation levels in groundwater was not confirmed by sampling conducted by NUSFIT
Based upon these findings NUSFIT offers the following recommendations
bull Monitoring of residential wells at 657 and 675 West Johnson Avenue under the Consent Order between Cheshire Associates and the CT DEP should be ammended to include analysis for 11-dichloroethene 11-dichloroethane t rans- 12-dichloroethene and toluene due to the detection of these substances in residential groundwater samples
m Analysis of residential tap water samples collected January 1986 needs to be acquired and reviewed particularly for benzene concentrations An appropriate response action if necessary can be determined after receipt of this data
bull In light of the continuing levels of volatile organic substances in groundwater it is recommended that an additional study be conducted to gather information on past waste disposal practices at the s i te define the degree and extent of contamination and identify any additional receptors This work should be conducted in conjunction with an investigation of facilities in the Cheshire Industrial Park (Appendix E)
bull Sampling and analysis of soils onsite should be conducted to verify the effectiveness of soil excavation
bull The Chesprocott Health District Water Supply Study April 1985 identified groundwater contamination at four additional areas within three miles of the si te the North Chesire wellfield the Sandbank Road shyIndustrial Avenue area East Johnson Avenue and Highland Avenue between Blacks and Creamery Roads (Figure 5) Contamination at these locations may be unrelated to the groundwater contamination at Cheshire Associates Property however investigation of sources should be conducted The CT DEP has conducted some investigation at these si tes therefore further efforts should be coordinated with the DEP
Although NUSFIT recommend that the above measures be incorporated into any further studies these recommendations are not a commitment by EPA or NUSFIT to conduct any further activities at this si te Fur thermore these recommendations do not advocate which party or parties (EPA NUSFIT State Principal Responsible Party etc) should be responsible for conducting any further activities at the s i te

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

Identity of absorbing compounds not positively confirmed to be 02 fuel oil UV spectra very similar to known sample of 02 fuel oil
NT Could not be positively identified as 02 fuel oil by infrared Spectra very similar to 02 fuel oil

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

Identity of absorbing compounds not positively confirmed to be 02 fuel oil UV spectra very similar to known sample of 02 fuel oil
NT Could not be positively identified as 02 fuel oil by infrared Spectra very similar to 02 fuel oil

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Re bull Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants P0 D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Analysis of Water Samples for Organic Contaminants PO D-75 000-B0632U BC 28527
These samples were analyzed using infrared spectroscopy and chromatography where there was sufficient sample Since we did not know the exact nature of the contaminants two extractions were carried out using pentane and CHC1_ on individual samples This enables us to obtain an empirical solvent seperation and a composite spectrum With the infrared method used and ordinate expansion we are able to obtain spectra for 01 to 02 mg of sample The samples desigshynated as small pond large pond TW3 and TW5 required ordinate expansion and the total extract has to be less than 10 ppm actually closer to 5 ppm (50 ml of water extracted (20x02 = 4 mg1) Sample TW2 did not require ordinate expansion and a spectrum obtained which was characteristic of an oil such as a fuel oil Tjie__gresence of aromatics and a reasonable spectral fit for fuel oil rules out the usual hydrocarbon oils that are used in hvdrauTr fluids Aromatics (bands of 1600 cm and 800-700 cm T~are usually present in Fossil fuels and not in the syntampejtLJJ p^pa^a-H nnlt nv ltpraquofifir appl ina+innB hydraulic fluids etc
The chlorofrjjm extracts indicate the presence of carbonyl and c-o stretches These are related to oxidation of oils There have been a variety of publishycations relating the intensities of these bands to the extent of oxidation
Sample TW-2 had the lowest concentration of oxidation products and the greatshyest concentration of oil The sample small pond had no apprecible levels of hydrocarbons and the chloroform extract__showeda largeconcentration of oxishydation productThe sampTc~Cargc Pond contained both pcntanc_extracts and uhluiOforn extracts wixn slightTly_less oxidation than the small_pond Samples TW-5 and TW-3 are essentially the same with some variation in the degree of oxidation
All of the samples contain the same materials in varying concentration There are two components a hydrocarbon oil and an oxidized portion The oxidized portion might be a used oil I have enclosed some pertinent spectra and a reference concerning the change in oil spills spectra even in a 7 day period

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good
Please review the data and contact me if you wish to discuss the data or wish experimental details

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Although we did not detect some of the low boiling components by gas-chromatography in the TW-2 for an unequivocal identification Depending on the time of standing it is possible these have been lost The spectral fit is too good otherwise The overlay of $pound oil and TW-2 chromatograms reasonably good

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm
Water Soil Test well 01 - 6 dry 40

- Not tested due to high concentrations of clay and silt
Identity of absorbing compounds not positively confirmed to be 02 fuel oil UV spectra very similar to known sample of 02 fuel oil
NT Could not be positively identified as 02 fuel oil by infrared Spectra very similar to 02 fuel oil

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program

Dear Mr Zienkiewicz
We have examined soil and water samples taken at Cheshire Conn during drilling operations on 102880 Water samples were examined by extraction with carbon tetrachloride followed by infrared analysis of the CC1 extracts at specific wave lengths Soil samples were extracted with boiling isooctane followed by UV analysis of the extracts Concentrations were determined by comparison with standard curves established for 02 fuel oils The results are shown below
Sample Description Concentration of Location 02 fuel oil ppm
Water Soil Test well 01 - 6 dry 40

- Not tested due to high concentrations of clay and silt
Identity of absorbing compounds not positively confirmed to be 02 fuel oil UV spectra very similar to known sample of 02 fuel oil
NT Could not be positively identified as 02 fuel oil by infrared Spectra very similar to 02 fuel oil

All values are very low If additional drilling did not reveal higher concentrations it would be difficult to justify initiating a biological clean-up program
