Remedial action plan for gasoline leak near Building 403, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, California

Technical Report · Mon Oct 21 00:00:00 EDT 1985

OSTI ID:6907152

Remedial requirements and alternatives associated with the leakage of gasoline in the vicinity of Building 403 at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) in Livermore, California were evaluated. Subsurface investigations included drilling borings, sampling soils, installing observation wells, sampling ground water from the newly installed and existing wells, chemically analyzing the soil and water samples, performing slug tests, and conducting a surface geophysical and a biodegradation laboratory study. At the same time, LLNL subcontractors conducted geophysical logging of the boreholes. The objectives were to summarize the site conditions, present the logic by which remedial alternatives were evaluated, and present a conceptual plan for remedial action. The conceptual action plan presents three alternative levels of cleanup: a virtually complete removal of contaminants, a intermediate approach intended to remove most of the contaminants, and a no-action/minimal action approach.
