BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City has participated in the PCEITCE contamination cleanup efforts by performing work related to indoor air quality studies and defining the lateral and vertical extent of the plume down -gradient from the source area at the alley south of Pine Street west of Church Street. The Council previously approved down -gradient work involving several sampling locations south to Vine Street. (Task Order #4, $170,000) Unfortunately, this work revealed that the contamination is both deeper and more widespread than anticipated. The Regional Board has requested additional work to define the depth and extent of the plume. More unfortunately, the less-expensive sampling methods used in Task Order #4 will not work for the deeper sampling that is necessary. Our consultants are in the process of preparing a proposal to do this additional investigation, including planning and report preparation. However, the cost will vary considerably ($250,000 to over $600,000) depending on how many wells are needed and the potential use of these wells for on-going monitoring. Staff is working with the consultants on alternatives and will make a presentation at the Council meeting. Staff will also add a contingency amount with an allowance for disposal of drilling waste.
