BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City of Lodi is responsible for the cleanup and monitoring of volatile organic carbon compounds (primarily PCE/TCE) in the four areas referred to as the Central, Southern, Western and Northern plumes. For several years, the City has been monitoring 50 wells, as specified in the Groundwater Monitoring and Reporting Program Number R5-2008-0813 (MRP) and presenting quarterly reports to the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB). These monitoring wells are mostly concentrated in the Central Plume area, but others are scattered across the area bounded by Lockeford Street, Stockton Street, Kettleman Lane, and Hutchins Street. These wells are constructed to various depths. Recently, the City Council approved solicitation of bids to construct eight additional monitoring wells that will be generally deeper than existing wells and will be located to monitor the Southern and Western plumes. These wells will ultimately be included in the MRP later this calendar year. For two years, the City has been operating soil vapor extraction wells and a groundwater extraction well in the block bounded by Pine Street, Church Street, Oak Street, and Pleasant Avenue. This soil vapor extraction system replaced the pilot facility that operated for several years prior at Guild Cleaners. Total PCE removed by these facilities exceeds 8,500 pounds. Recently, Treadwell & Rollo performed an update to the Lodi Groundwater Model by adding new data for the Central plume and historic and new data for the Southern, Western and Northern plumes. The model is now being used to simulate the migration of the plumes under various City groundwater well field pumping scenarios. In addition, the model is being used to optimize locations for proposed monitoring wells in the Southern, Western and Northern plume areas. Task Order No. 25 will draw upon the expertise and experience of Treadwell & Rollo to develop the ongoing work program and future costs for the City to complete the remediation and monitoring of the groundwater contamination associated with the Central, Southern, Western, and Northern plumes. Task Order No. 25 is provided in Attachment A. Staff Ncommends approval and the appropriation of $28,000.

Our proposal is based on the following assumptions and deliverables for the: • The Northern, Western, and Southern Plumes will not require active remediation, and will be monitored using current and new groundwater monitoring wells designed and installed specifically for long-term monitoring of plume migration. • The Central Plume Source Area soil vapor and groundwater remediation system performance will be assessed and a reasonable time frame for continued operation will be determined. The cost to decommission and remove the system and subgrade utilities (including soil vapor and groundwater extraction wells and monitoring wells) associated with the system will be estimated. An estimated cost to remediate downgradient groundwater contamination that has moved beyond the Central Plume Source Area remediation system capture zone will be developed, based on the assumption that the Regional Water Quality Control Board (Water Board) will mandate remediation in this area. Remedial alternatives will be estimated, including retrofitting the Central Plume Source Area treatment system to accept water from extraction wells: The term of the monitoring period for each plume will be estimated using the City-wide groundwater flow model, assessment of the results and trends of the current groundwater monitoring program, and discussions with the Water Board. We will include a monitoring optimization analysis that statistically analyzes groundwater monitoring trends and describes acceptable changes in long-term monitoring. (Note — we will also assume that all groundwater monitoring data is available in an electronic format suitable for this analysis). • An estimated cost to abandon all groundwater monitoring wells will be prepared. • Annual future reporting costs for the City-wide groundwater monitoring program will be estimated using current monitoring costs, anticipated changes in monitoring frequency, and a reasonable annual increase based on local financial projections. • We will include a task to meet with the Water Board to discuss the goals and initial objectives of this work and solicit their advice on data requirements and cleanup goals, and a second meeting to present the long-term plan that will come from this work. 555 MONTGOMERY STREET, SUITE 1300 SAN FRANCISCO CALIFORNIA 94111 T 415 955 9040 F 415 955 9041 www.treadwellrollo.com T readwell&Rolb A LANsAN COMPANY Proposal to Prepare City -Wide Remediation and Monitoring Costs 7 February 2013 Task Order 25 Page 2 of City of Lodi, Califomia Pr01eCt PrWoaak 730392301 • Two meetings with the City will be included, one of which is assumed to include a presentation to the City Council.
