Document Description
Interim Measures Workplan for Soils and Soil Vapor at Plant I of the Northrop East Complex Facility
This project is for the Department of Toxic Substances Control's (DTSC) approval of an Interim Measure (IM) to address soil and groundwater impacted by chlorinated volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at Plant I of the Northrop East Complex Facility (Facility). Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) was selected as a preferred presumptive remediation measure based on evaluation of soil properties and physical characteristics of the chemicals of potential concern at the Facility. The SVE system will decrease the VOC concentration in the vadose zone, and consequently reduce the threat of continuing migration of contamination from the vadose zone into the ground water. SVE has proven to be effective in remediating other areas at the Facility which were given an interim measure completeness determination by DTSC in June 2011. Quarterly and Semi-Annual groundwater monitoring will continue and will allow evaluation of the effects of the on-going cleanup on ground water. Plant I is generally surrounded by asphalt-paved parking area, a concrete-lined Dominguez Channel, railroad tracks, and commercial, industrial, and residential developments.

Sec. 15061(b)(3)
Reasons for Exemption
Note: General Rule Exemption.
DTSC has determined that there is no possibility the proposed project will result in a significant effect to the environment.
No significant effect on public health or the environment because of the relatively small volume, short project duration, and the controlled manner in which contaminted soils will be extracted, loaded onto trucks, and taken off-site for disposal/treatment.
