1. Executive Summary

1.1 BACKGROUND

Minerex Environmental Limited (MEL) was contracted by Nypro Limited to carry out, in compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) request as expressed in communication (P0567-02)si11ma dated 14/08/13, a repeat site investigation and risk assessment at their EPA licenced facility in Bray, Co. Wicklow. Nypro have presently initiated the process of relinquishing the licence with the EPA and the work presented here is carried out as part of this process.

Subsequently, MEL was commissioned by Nypro Ireland Ltd in 2016 to carry out further intrusive site investigations (drilling MW6) requested by the EPA, and to include both the results of further investigations and the latest groundwater monitoring results (September 2016) and conclusions in this Quantitative Risk Assessment to give a full and up to date overview of the state of the site with respect to migration and MNA of the contaminants of the site.

The requirement stems from a historical spill of waste oil from a tank located below the main yard of the facility which is deemed to have occurred in or prior to 2002. In 2007/2008 the site investigation and risk assessment showed that the soils surrounding the tank were contaminated with hydrocarbons which led to the implementation, in consultation with the EPA, of a Monitored Natural Attenuation management strategy.

1.2 SCOPE

The scope of the work was to repeat intrusive site investigation and risk assessment carried out by MEL in 2008 and again in 2014, and present the findings in the context of the ongoing MNA management regime. This report also includes results of drilling MW6 to the north of the source area (MW3R) and the latest groundwater sampling results to give a full and up to date overview of the site with respect to risk.

1.3 SITE DESCRIPTION and CONCEPTUAL SITE MODEL

The site is located in a mixed land use area on the northern outskirts of Bray, County Wicklow. The facility sits on the top of a slope approximately 500m inland from the Irish Sea coast and is surrounded by a mix of residential and commercial developments. The site is bound to the north by a public green area where the Westbrook Stream flows towards the Irish Sea.

The surface of the facility is characterised by extensive impermeable cover (buildings, concrete and tarmacadam) whereas the ground below the facility is characterised by a heterogeneous made ground, shallow natural riverine sediments and a gravel aquifer. A summary of the water bearing horizons below the site is provided in the table below and graphically represented at the end of this summary.

(Regional) Irish Sea. Connection with the Irish Sea is confirmed by observed tidal level variations. Likely confined along the path to the Irish Sea.

Water flow regime #3 Groundwater (Local) Shallow clay/sand horizon (probably perched), the general groundwater flow is towards the north and the Westbrook stream. The relationship with the stream is thought to vary seasonally based on MW2, MW1, MW5 & MW6 groundwater level data. Tidal variations were not observed in these wells suggesting poor connectivity with the Irish Sea.

The volume of soil impacted by the spill is located below the main yard in the center of the facility and is overlain by concrete and tarmacadam. Contaminants have been observed historically in the gravel aquifer (Regime #2) and in the shallow clay/sand aquifer (Regime #3) indicating the presence of a pathway for contaminants to impact the groundwater quality and potentially the surface water quality of the Westbrook Stream and Irish Sea (potential receptors of Regime #3 and Regime #2 respectively).

While still elevated, the level of contamination in the soil has substantially decreased since 2008. It is estimated that approximately 75% of the contaminant mass in the soil has been lost as a result of natural attenuation processes (2014). Consequently, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons and Mineral Oil determinants have returned to background concentrations in Regime #2 and Regime #3, since 2012 and 2013 respectively, indicating that at present impacts could be considered negligible. It is noted however that the volume of soil impacted by the contamination has increase probably as the result of contaminant migration through preferential pathways in the unsaturated ground.

It is considered that at present the presence of impermeable surfaces above the contaminated soil mass are acting as a mitigation factor. However, a potential concern remains in the scenario, albeit unlikely, in which the cover provided by the hard standing surfaces is removed in the future.

1.4 ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY AND RESULT

1.4.1 Generic Quantitative Risk Assessment

A generic quantitative risk assessment was conducted by comparing the most recent soil and groundwater chemistry result with generally accepted reference limits. The assessment confirmed that while the concentration of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons and Mineral Oil are elevated above the screening level, the concentration of groundwater determinants is below the selected screening level when groundwater immediately below the soil mass is considered. It is also noted that natural sources of hydrocarbons (such as peat layers) in the catchment are present and are likely to have impacted the groundwater quality of Regime #2. The assessment was however progressed to a Detailed

Quantitative Risk Assessment in order to establish the risk posed by the contaminated soil mass in

the scenario where the impermeable cover is removed.

1.4.2 Detailed Quantitative Risk Assessment

A detailed quantitative risk assessment was carried out to evaluate potential impacts in a hypothetical future scenario where the impermeable cover provided by the concrete and tarmacadam surfaces is removed. The assessment was carried out in accordance with the Environmental Agency Remedial Targets Methodology using the modelling tools provided with the methodology. The model parameters where selected in order to represent the conditions that are expected to be encountered at the site should the cover be removed.

The modelling exercise has shown that negligible impacts would be observed in the groundwater of Regime #2. However, a minor concern remains when considering groundwater Regime #3 where potential impacts on the groundwater quality immediately below the site and the Westbrook Stream are shown to be possible. It is noted that, in the interest of a conservative approach, mitigation factors

such as increased organic content of the soil towards the stream, biological degradation along the pathway and the seasonal variation in flows between the groundwater and the stream, were disregarded in the model.

1.5 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Overall the risk at the site is considered to be very low. In particular, the present capping of the soil mass is deemed to have a sufficient mitigating effect to result in the environment being generally protected.

1.5.1 Bi-annual water monitoring should cease

It is recommended that groundwater monitoring should cease. By way of background to this it was recommended as a precaution in the 2014 Risk Assessment report (Ref.: 2003-797) that biannual water sampling and laboratory analysis continues until there are 4 consecutive monitoring events (2 years) showing that groundwater quality has returned to acceptable concentrations. That is, 90% of values for TPH and MO are below the Dutch Target Value (DTV) of 0.05mg/l in locations MW3R (location of source) and MW2 (directly/immediately downgradient of source). MW1 is excluded from such criteria due to the uncertainty related to the results obtained at that location, as discussed in Section 5.2 of this report.

The latest groundwater monitoring report (MEL report 2003-818) states that this criteria has been met. In fact, since November 2013 (7 consecutive monitoring events which is more than 3 years), 100% concentrations of TPH and MO at MW2 and MW3R have been below the referenced limits (DTV 0.05mg/l).

With reference to this report and to the conclusions made in the latest groundwater monitoring report (2003-818) it is clear that the residual contamination on site is at very low levels through natural attenuation and continues to reduce if not undetectable already (below limit of detection) in most instances. The risk of the site developing a reversal of the downward trend in concentration is considered low. Similarly, the risk to receptors is considered low.

1.5.2 No financial provision needs to be provided

It is recommended that no financial provision needs to be in place because the results of this risk assessment indicate that capping of the contaminated soil mass, currently in place by default (tarmacadam and concrete), would be an effective and more sustainable option overall.

1.5.3 Licence surrender to commence now

The Company should now complete the EPA’s licence surrender application form because the activity for which the licence was acquired ceased years ago, and the Irish Sea and the Westbrook Stream are unlikely to be impacted by residual hydrocarbon contaminants from the site. It is understood that the EPA has in the past permitted the surrender of a licence with residual contamination on site. It is noted that the site is zoned Commercial and Industrial not Domestic.

2. Introduction

2.1 PROJECT CONTRACTUAL BASIS & PARTIES INVOLVED

Minerex Environmental Limited (MEL) was commissioned by Nypro Ireland Limited in 2014 to repeat the site investigation (dated April 2008, Minerex Ref 2003-115) to delineate current residual soil hydrocarbon contamination and subsequently update the 2008 Quantitative Risk Assessment (MEL Ref 2003-177). The activities were requested to be conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in communication (P0567-02)si11ma dated 14/08/13 as part of the Licence Surrender process initiated by Nypro for licence P0567-02 (2014: MEL Report 2003-797).

Subsequently, MEL was commissioned by Nypro Ireland Ltd. in 2016 to carry out further intrusive site investigations requested by the EPA (MW6), and to include both the results of further investigations and the latest groundwater monitoring results (September 2016) and conclusions in this Quantitative Risk Assessment to give a full and up to date overview of the state of the site with respect to migration and MNA of the contaminants of the site.

2.2 PROJECT OBJECTIVES

This document addresses the following:

1. Points b and c below included in communication (P0567-02)si11ma dated 14/08/13 from the EPA:

a) 2007 to date data review and trend analysis.

b) Qualitative Risk Assessment (water, soil and receptors).

c) Complete modelling of risk.

d) Labelling of Monitoring Locations. With the exception of MW5, all other monitoring locations had no labels on them during the site inspection.

The plan to repeat the site investigation was proposed by MEL, and subsequently approved by the EPA, in the document “Proposal to address elements 2 and 3 of the EPA site inspection report dated 4/9/13” (MEL Ref. 2003-788). It should be noted that items a and b have been completed and reported in MEL Report 2003-790 (Bi-annual Groundwater Monitoring Report April 2014). Extracts of these reports are presented here to provide context to the assessment

2. Tasks listed the during a meeting between the EPA, Nypro Ireland Ltd, and MEL on the 26th

September 2016:

a) The EPA referenced the recommendations of the 2014 Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA) which recommended carrying out further intrusive investigations. The EPA recommended that the 2014 QRA be updated to include soil sampling results from intrusive investigation and the Round 2 2016 groundwater results. Mr. Shine made the EPA aware of his intention to carryout this work.

A graphical representation of the Conceptual Site Model is provided in Appendix B. This is discussed here below.

2.4.1 Site location and operations history

Nypro Ireland Limited is a Medical Device Healthcare Manufacturer. The site occupied by Nypro is located on the northern outskirts of Bray, Co. Wicklow (Appendices A and B). The site is bound by a residential area to the south and west and a public park area, Westbrook Glen, to the north and east. The Westbrook Stream runs through the park and is bound by slopes on either side. The site slopes downhill to a fenced grassed area immediately adjacent to the park. At the bottom of the slope to the east a flat area is being used as a car park for the facility which is now covered with tarmacadam. With the exception of few grassed areas along the roads and slopes the facility surfaces are mostly covered with impermeable materials such as tarmacadam and concrete. A site location map including the location of historical boreholes and active monitoring points on the site can be found in Appendix A.

The Nypro facility has been in operation since 1980. A painting facility was introduced in 2000 but operations ceased at the end of 2005/2006 due to economic reasons. The company is now mainly focused on the healthcare design manufacture and automation assembly of medical devices while retaining some of its more long term packaging customers. There are approximately 330 employees with production operating on a four shift 24 hours day for approximately 360 days per year. In 2004 Nypro was granted an IPPC Licence (P0567-02) for this facility. Nypro is licenced on the following activity:

- The use of coating materials in processes with capacity to use at least 10 tonnes per year of organic solvents, not included in paragraph 12.2.1

The licenced activities have since ceased and Nypro has initiated a Licence Surrender process for the site.

2.4.2 Geological setting

The site contains an industrial facility, which is constructed on ground that has been ‘cut and filled’ with cutting to the east and filling to the west beside the stream. Previous site investigations showed that the site is built on CLAY-rich made ground to a depth of approximately 2m, which is underlain by natural CLAY subsoil, followed by poorly sorted GRAVEL, returning to CLAY and GRAVEL. SAND was noted in MW2 and MW6 to the northeast of the site[1] (Appendices A and B). According to the published subsoil geology mapping, the surrounding area is underlain by made ground or fluvioglacial SANDS and GRAVELS[2]. As shown in the conceptual site model (Appendix B) the structure of the made ground and shallow natural CLAY ground is characterised by a certain level of heterogeneity where the presence of sand and gravel lenses is also noted.

2.4.3 Hydrogeological setting

The data suggest that there are at least three groundwater transmitting horizons on the site. Table 2.3 below summarises the salient characteristics of these groundwater bodies.

Deep (lower) gravel horizon in connection with MW3R, MW101 and MW103. The general groundwater flow is towards the east and the Irish Sea. Connection with the Irish Sea is confirmed by observed tidal level variations. Likely confined along the path to the Irish Sea.

Water flow regime #3 Groundwater (Local)

Shallow clay/sand horizon (probably perched), the general groundwater flow is towards the north and the Westbrook stream. The relationship with the stream is thought to vary seasonally based on MW2, MW1, MW5 & MW6 groundwater level data. Tidal variations were not observed in these wells suggesting poor connectivity with the Irish Sea.

A localised groundwater body, Regime #1, is located west (general upgradient) of the site. Regime #1 shows groundwater levels between 7.0 and 8.0 maOD at the site (monitoring well MW4). Based on the understanding of the geological setting it is likely that Regime #1 is in fact perched.

Monitoring wells MW3R, MW101 and MW103b are installed at depth (>9.0 mbGL) in SAND and GRAVELS. This groundwater body, Regime #2, is thought to be underlying the whole site. The groundwater level of Regime #2 is generally in the order of 1.5-2.0 maOD at the site (Appendix C) (c. 0.8 maOD in September 2016, however exceptionally low groundwater levels were observed across the site during this monitoring event, likely due to dryer than average (30 year mean) months preceding the monitoring event. MEL Report Ref. 2003-818). Information obtained from continuous automatic water level monitoring devices which were placed (09/05/14 to the 15/05/14) in Regime 2 (MW3R, BH101 and BH103B) showed a minor tidal influence of in the order of 100 mm between tide in and tide out times. This granular groundwater transmitting horizon is probably the most important pathway as it is directly below the historic oil spill, which is directly connected to the nearest water body (the Irish Sea approximately 500 m to the east). While MW3R and MW103b are thought to be representative of a phreatic surface, groundwater level information from MW101 drill logs[12], together with the presence of a perched regime (Regime #3 discussed below) east of MW3R and MW103b, would indicate that Regime #2 becomes a confined aquifer east and south of the area under investigation (Appendix B).

Monitoring wells MW1, MW2, MW5 and MW6 are installed in SANDS and CLAYS in the eastern portion of the site. The monitoring wells indicate the presence of a perched groundwater system (Regime #3) which is in connection with the Westbrook Stream a short distance north of the site (between 50m and 20m). The groundwater levels measured in MW1 and MW2 (closest to the stream) generally vary between 2.0 and 4.0 maOD indicating that the relationship with the stream, where the water level is in the order of 3.2 maOD, varies seasonally (Appendix C). Information obtained from continuous automatic water level monitoring devices in MW1 and MW5 showed no evidence of tidal influences on the groundwater levels of Regime #3 indicating poor connectivity, if any, with the underlying Regime #2. It is noted that the perched water of Regime #3 is thought to be limited to the eastern side of the site and has not been observed in boreholes located in the area directly below the spill (MW3R, MW102 and MW103B).

2.4.4 Hydrological setting

The closest surface water is the Westbrook Stream located approximately 50m from the area under investigation. As indicated in MEL Report 2003-790, this is thought to be in connection with groundwater Regime #3 were the relationship alternates seasonally (gaining/loosing stream). This was inferred from the groundwater level recorded in MW1 and MW2 which seasonally fluctuates

across the general level of the stream (measured approximately 20m away from MW1). As for Regime #3 the stream is thought to be perched above the main SAND and GRAVEL groundwater body (Regime #2). A graphical representation of the groundwater level monitoring data (2009-2014) at the site is provided in Appendix C.

The Irish Sea coast line is approximately 500m to the east of the site. Groundwater regime #2 has shown to be influenced by tidal variations (Appendix C). Hydraulic continuity is therefore assumed to exist between the gravel aquifer immediately below the site and the Irish Sea.

2.4.5 Contamination history (Source)

A historic release of hydrocarbons is known to have occurred in or preceding 2002. The release occurred from the top of an underground oil interceptor tank located in the yard between the two site buildings. Since the release occurred the tank has been decommissioned and in-filled with concrete. Between 2007 and the time of writing, regular groundwater monitoring (biannually) and a number of site investigation activities have been conducted as part of the proposed Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) management strategy. The following summarises the findings of previous site investigations:

1. The upgradient natural subsoil samples contain low concentrations of total petroleum hydrocarbons (BH6). Therefore the made ground used historically to construct the site is interpreted as having residual/background hydrocarbon contamination. As reported in MEL report 2003-115, the background diesel range organics (DRO) is taken as 134mg/kg (2008 data).

2. The range of DRO observed in 2007 in BH3, BH4 and BH5 (adjacent to the spill area) ranged from 978mg/kg to 1682mg/kg. At the same time the range of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) was from 1,145mg/kg to 32,790mg/kg whereas mineral oil (MO) was ranging from 782mg/kg to 1,346mg/kg. The highest values were all recorded in BH3 within the top 3.0m of ground. The site investigation exercise was reported in MEL report 2003-052 where MNA was proposed as a possible management strategy.

3. In 2008 (MEL report 2003-115) indicated that soil contamination was not present in BH7 and BH8 where DRO and MO were below the detection limit of 1mg/kg at both locations.

4. In 2010 (MEL report 2003-253) it was posited that natural attenuation could lead to a return to background hydrocarbon concentrations in the soil within five (5) years from the spill. Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) was expected to progress at least until 2012.

5. In February 2011 subsoil sampling was carried during the replacement of MW3 with MW3R, the highest concentrations of EPH / DRO reached 5610mg/kg and MO 3,060mg/kg at a depth of 2.5m to 3.0m. TPH were 5,480mg/kg at the same depth (MEL report 2003-518).

6. In February 2012 a site investigation was conducted in the Westbrook Glen Park along the northern boundary (MEL report 2003-748). Soil samples from two trenches excavated beyond the site fence and directly north of the spill area were collected from the slope and flood plain (Appendix A). The report concluded that with the exception of naturally occurring hydrocarbons, found in peat horizons, no contamination was present at the locations investigated.

7. In November 2012 a Phase 2 site investigation was conducted by Environmental Resources Management (ERM). Spot soil samples were collected from three (3) boreholes at the site. MW101, located away from the spill area, show TPH concentrations of up to 131mg/kg (consistent with background DRO values in BH6). The highest concentration of TPH (12,594mg/kg) was observed in MW102, drilled in close proximity to the identified spill, at a depth of 0.8 mbGL. Up to 7,153mg/kg TPH were observed in MW103B at a depth of 3.0mbGL.

8. In May 2014 subsoil sampling was carried out with the aim of repeating and extending the site investigation carried out in 2007 (see above). Recorded soil concentrations of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) were between 2,530mg/kg and 6.25mg/kg whereas mineral oil (MO) soil concentrations where noted to be between 2,620mg/kg and 10.2mg/kg (Appendix A and E).

9. In January 2016 a new monitoring location (MW6) was drilled to the north/north-north-east of the source zone (MW3R)(Appendix X) with the aim of ascertaining if the plume of contaminants had migrated in that direction (i.e. a more direct route toward the Westbrook Stream). Recorded soil concentrations of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) were between 292 mg/kg and 2.69 mg/kg whereas mineral oil (MO) soil concentrations were between 227 mg/kg and 8 mg/kg. It was concluded that; “there is no evidence from the soil and groundwater in MW6 reported here that the migration extends to MW6 in the direction of the site perimeter embankment and the stream in the valley adjacent to the site” (MEL report 2003-810).

10. In September 2016 the 2nd Biannual (2016) monitoring event was carried out (most recent monitoring event). It was concluded that; “contaminants previously detected in MW2 have been below detection limit since September 2014. Similarly, hydrocarbons and PAHs at MW1 could be related to runoff from the new car park that is in close proximity to this location. Regardless of the source of contaminants in MW1, contaminants in MW1 have been reducting in concentration over the last 6 years, albeit variable downward trends in some instances. The source and main area of concern in the past (MW3/3R) shows evidence that the contamination is no longer present in the deep (lower) gravel groundwater transmitting zone which is directly connected to the Irish Sea verified using continuous water level monitoring devices in 2013. In addition, recent repeat subsoil sampling (Ref.6), risk assessment (Ref.7), and drilling of MW6 (Ref 8) shows that the risk of impact on receptors is low” (MEL report 2003-818).

The contaminated soil around the spill area is considered to be the main source of contamination at the site. Table 2.4 shows a mass balance carried out for TPH to estimate the contaminant mass reduction occurred between 2007 and 2014. The mass balance indicates that the contaminant mass reduction is estimated in the order of 75% over the period considered. However, the latest site investigations (November 2012 and May 2014) are showing that the area impacted has expanded horizontally and extends towards MW2 and MW103 probably as a result of preferential migration through discreet permeable layers (sand lenses) and fissures present in the soil body. As shown in Figure 2.1, the concentration of contaminants in close proximity to the spill area is reducing overtime, albeit not at the rate anticipated during the 2010 MNA study. If the top 3m of soil in this area immediately surrounding the origin of the spill are considered it is possible to estimate the half-life of the contaminant, albeit with some approximation (assuming a single first order model), for the period 2007-2011 and for the period 2011-2014 using:

C/C0 = e-λt

Where C is the concentration of TPH at the time t, C0 is the concentration of TPH at the start of the period considered and λ is the single order rate constant. The half-life so calculated would be 406 days and 920 days for the period 2007-2011 and 2011-2014 respectively. While the longer half-life estimated for the period 2011-2014 could be, to some extent, resulting from changes in the TPH fractions composition (higher C compounds are less amenable to degradation processes and volatilisation for example) the variation is significant enough to suggest that dilution in the soil due to the expansion of the contaminated soil volume has significantly reduced (where available, compositional data for the various TPH fractions is provided in Appendix E). This, together with: (1) the fact that the remaining TPH fractions (EC>21) are characterised by low mobility and (2) the

absence of visually observed free product in the samples collected in 2014, would indicate that the potential for further migration is limited and therefore that a significant increase of the contaminated soil volume is deemed unlikely in the future.

The residual hydrocarbon contamination in the soil adjacent to the underground tanks is considered to have historically leached vertically through unsaturated made ground and natural subsoil to the water table. Figure 2.2 below shows the results of the ongoing bi-annual groundwater quality monitoring (MEL report 2003-818). The following summarises the findings of the groundwater monitoring:

1. Water flow regime #1: MW4 is considered to represent the baseline groundwater chemistry of the site. No hydrocarbon contamination has been observed to date.

2. Water flow regime #2: MW3R (previously MW3), deemed to be representative of the groundwater quality in the locally important GRAVEL aquifer, has shown decreasing concentrations of EPH, TPH and PAH and consistently shows values below the detection limit since March 2012. MO has been below detection limit for the same period except for one minor spike in October 2015, however the concentration detected is very low (0.047mg/l) and is not

considered significant). MW3R is located directly beneath the contaminated area which would suggest that the contaminants are no longer reaching the water table.

3. Water flow regime #3: As shown in Figure 2.2, sporadic, low concentration hydrocarbons are noted in the groundwater boreholes downgradient of the contaminated area (MW1 and MW2). MEL report 2003-790 suggests that some of the contamination may have reached the shallow water table in several monitoring wells via migration along lateral and vertical pathways in the subsoils and not via groundwater flow alone. However, contaminants have not been detected (have been below detection limit) in MW2 since April 2014, and prior to this concentration trends were downward, albeit variable in some instances. Similarly, hydrocarbons and PAHs at MW1 could be related to runoff from the new car park that is in close proximity to this location. Regardless of the source of contaminants in MW1, contaminants in MW1 have been dropping in concentration over the last 6 years, albeit variable downward trends in some instances. (MEL report 2003-818)

Water quality monitoring of the Westbrook Stream has been carried out by MEL in conjunction with groundwater monitoring events. The results indicate that no impacts from the site were observed on the stream with regards to TPH, EPH, Mineral Oil, PAH or BTEX since 2011 when monitoring of the stream began (MEL report 2003-818).

MEL report 2003-790 (Bi-annual Groundwater Monitoring - April 2014) suggests, in the interest of caution, that the observed exceedances in MW1 could be linked to the contaminants release by the combined effect of contaminant migration in the unsaturated soil, migration into groundwater in proximity of MW2 and groundwater flow transport towards MW1. However, it has also been hypothesised in previous groundwater monitoring reports (MEL reports 2003-784, 2003-787, 2003-818) that the source of hydrocarbons at this location might be originating from the car park located beside MW1 where contaminants might be entering the groundwater regime through infiltration of rainwater. PAHs were detected in low concentrations in MW3R, MW2, MW1 and MW4 (Upgradient/Baseline) in 2010, however since 2010 PAHs have only ever been detected in MW1. Furthermore, most of the PAH compounds that have been detected in MW1 have never been detected in MW3R or MW2, including; Acenaphthene, Anthracene, Benzo(a)anthracene, Benzo(a)pyrene, etc. In addition, the PAH concentration trend detected in MW1 has been variable, spiking in 2013 and 2015 to concentrations greater (up to 2 orders of magnitude) than that observed in MW3R or MW2 (Ref 2003-814 – 2015 AER)

2.4.6 Potential pollutant linkages: Human Health

The following potential receptors of soil and groundwater impact at the Site were considered:

- employees of the facility;

- below-ground workers;

- residents of nearby residential areas;

There is a potential risk of exposure to on-site and off-site receptors, however this is considered to be low given the extensive presence of hard-standing and grassed areas across the site, which would limit the impacts of soil dust and contaminant vapours. Off-site migration of vapours in the groundwater is also considered to be unlikely to impact off-site receptors due to the general depth of the water table (approximately 8mbGL) (Appendix B) and the general flow direction of groundwater which is to the east. (Appendix A)

Based on the information reviewed there are no abstraction wells intended for human consumption in the area downgradient of the site. Therefore ingestion of contaminated water is also considered unlikely. This qualitative assessment was also confirmed in the ERM generic quantitative assessment[12] where it was concluded that no significant risk to human health would be present.

A minor concern remains for below-ground works where operators might be exposed to contaminants either by dermal contact or inhalation. However there is no long term exposure expected in this scenario and mitigation should be managed under the health and safety provisions of the job.

2.4.7 Potential pollutant linkages: Controlled Waters

The potential pollutant linkages are considered on the basis of the current understanding of environmental conditions encountered at the site and the contamination history of the site. The pathway for groundwater contamination is considered to be leaching of residual hydrocarbon contamination in the soil adjacent to the underground tanks downwards vertically through unsaturated made ground and natural subsoil to the water table (Appendix B). Possible impacts on groundwater and surface water within Regime #2 and Regime #3 are considered and will be discussed further in this report.

3. Generic Quantitative Risk Assessment (GQRA)

3.1 POTENTIAL POLLUTANT LINKAGES

3.1.1 Source of contamination and Contaminants of Potential Concern (COPC)

The source of contaminants is considered to be the residual contamination in the soil around the tank where the spill occurred. The possibility of a groundwater plume generated from the spill is also considered. Due to the nature of the spill, Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (EPH), Mineral Oil (MO) and Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) will be considered as the Contaminants of Potential Concern (COPC) in the assessment.

3.1.2 Potential pollutant linkages

The potential pollutant linkages considered in the assessment are summarised in Table 3.1 below.

3.3 SOURCE ZONE DATA MANAGEMENT

The soil chemistry results obtained during the April 2014 site investigation (MEL Report 2003-798), drilling of MW6 (MEL Report 2003-810) and latest groundwater monitoring event of September 2016 (MEL report 2003-818) were directly compared with the relevant GAC. These are reported in Appendix D and Appendix E.

3.4 RESULTS OF THE GENERIC QUANTITATIVE RISK ASSESSMENT

3.4.1 Soil and subsoil

Results from the 2014 soil investigation indicate five (5) samples showed concentrations of TPH and MO to be elevated above the relevant Inert limit, with BH14-SS2, BH15-SS1 and BH15-SS2 being below the Inert limit (Appendix E). The highest concentrations were recorded in BH12-SS2 (2,620mg/kg) for MO and in BH13-SS5 (2,530mg/kg) for TPH which are both below the Dutch Intervention Value.

Results for soil samples obtained from the drilling of MW6 (January 2016, MEL Report 2003-810) indicate that concentrations for all parameters analysed (TPH, PAH, BTEX, MO, GRO) are below GAC (Generic Assesment Criteria) reference limits, where available.

3.4.2 Controlled waters

With the exception of MW1, all of the groundwater samples (September 16) showed concentrations of EPH and PAH below the more restrictive IGV limit (Appendix D). The EPH concentration in MW1 was 0.047mg/L which is elevated above IGV limit (0.01mg/L). However it should be noted that the limit of detection for EPH is <0.046mg/L. The laboratory detection limit of <0.046mg/l is above the guideline value of 0.01mg/l; however MEL believes that this discrepancy is not of significance at these locations as the TPH is below the guideline value of <0.01mg/l for TPH which includes EPH. The Total PAH concentration in MW1 was 0.345ug/L, which is elevated above IGV limit (0.10ug/L). However it should be noted that the limit of detection for Total PAH prior to the September 2016 monitoring event was <0.344ug/L. The laboratory detection limit of <0.344ug/l is above the guideline values of 0.075ug/l (Groundwater Regulations) & 0.01ug/l (IGV); however all speciated PAHs are below the individual guidance, therefore this discrepancy is not considered significant. All groundwater samples showed concentrations of MO and TPH below detection limits, and IGV reference limits (Limit of detection for MO and TPH does not exceed the IGV reference limits). (MEL Report 2003-818).

3.4.3 Conclusions

While soil concentrations of TPH and MO are noted to be above the selected Inert limit in the 2014 soil investigation (MEL Report 2003-797), it would appear that impacts on the gravel aquifer beneath the contamination area are no longer present (MW3R, Regime #2) as a result of natural attenuation of contaminants in the soil. Historical data (Appendix E) shows that up to 32,790mg/kg, TPH, and 3,060mg/kg, MO, have been observed in 2007 in close proximity to the origin of the spill (BH3). It is noted that, while the concentration of the contaminants is significantly reducing, the volume of soil impacted by contaminants has increased overtime most likely as a result of preferential migration paths for the contaminant in the unsaturated ground.

The impact of soil contamination on the groundwater quality would presently be mitigated by the extensive cover of tarmacadam and concrete present at the site which is effectively capping the contaminated area and significantly reducing the leaching of contaminants. It is noted that, historical data shows that EPH, TPH and MO concentrations in MW3R, located immediately below the spill area, have been constantly reducing since these peaked in June 2010 when 7.93mg/L, 7.46mg/L and 6.56mg/L were recorded for EPH, TPH and MO respectively. TPH, EPH and PAH have been observed to be below the detection limit in MW3R since March 2012 indicating that impacts on regime #2 are no longer present. MO has been below detection limit for the same period except for one minor spike in October 2015, however the concentration detected is very low (0.047mg/l) and is not considered significant.

In the local shallow aquifer (Regime #3), MW2 at present shows values below the relevant reference limits for TPH, EPH, PAH and MO, in fact all were below the detection limit, indicating that at the time of sampling (September 2016) impacts from the contaminated soil were most likely negligible.

With reference to the historical data, it would appear that migration of contaminants from the soil in to groundwater of Regime #3 has occurred sporadically and impacts appear to be reducing overtime as inferred from sporadic detections in MW2 of TPH and MO (04/06/10 and 26/03/13). Elevated EPH are noted more regularly in MW2. However, while a general correlation between EPH and TPH (or even MO) can be observed historically for groundwater samples in MW3R this cannot be said for MW2 (Figure 3.1).

Figure 3.1 Correlation between EPH and TPH in groundwater from MW3R (Regime #3) and MW2 (Regime #2).

Since sporadic detections of EPH, apparently unrelated to TPH (or even MO), are historically observed in MW1, MW2 and MW5, the source of EPH is thought to be associated with the general soil chemistry and organic nature of the shallow ground in the flood plain of the Westbrook Stream (peat horizons were noted immediately north of MW2 during the site investigation carried out in Westbrook Glen Park, MEL report 2003-748). In fact, it is noted that EPH are observed in MW2 only when the local groundwater flow is directed south, from the Westbrook Stream towards the site (Table 3.3 below). This would be supported by the fact that one of only 2 times EPH was recorded, albeit in very low concentrations, in MW5 (18/10/12) the ground water level in MW1 was significantly higher than both MW2 and MW5 (anecdotal information would indicated that the Westbrook Stream was flooding or close to flooding the plain at the time). However, the pattern appears to be less clear when considering EPH in MW1. Occasionally elevated PAH(16) in MW1 would suggests that this might be due to sporadic impacts from the nearby, formerly gravel covered, car park. It is noted that, historically, low levels of PAH(16) and EPH were detected, upgradient of the site, in the Westbrook Stream (18/10/2012 and 29/09/2016) but not downgradient, near MW1.

Recommendations with regards to the results of the generic risk assessment will be presented in Chapter 4 in the context of the present and possible future conditions encountered at the site.

4. Detailed quantitative risk assessment (DQRA)

Changes to the site layout, and in particular to the impermeable surfaces overlaying the soil mass impacted by contaminants, are deemed unlikely in the short term. However, in the interest of caution the risk assessment is here extended to assess the risk posed to potential environmental receptors should these surfaces be removed.

4.1 POTENTIAL POLLUTANT LINKAGES

4.1.1 Potential pollutant linkages

The potential pollutant linkages considered in the assessment are summarised in Table 3.1 below. These are consistent with those assessed in the GQRA but, since groundwater regimes #2 and #3 are included in the assessment as pathways to the potential surface water receptors. The source of contaminants is considered to be the residual contamination in the soil around the tank where the spill occurred. In consideration of the age and nature of the spill Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) are considered as the Contaminants of Potential Concern (CoPC) in the assessment.

Table 4.1 Potential pollutant linkages to controlled waters.

Source Pathway Receptor Comment

Residual soil contamination (hydrocarbon)

Migration through soil and groundwater (regime #2)

Residual soil contamination (hydrocarbon)

Migration through soil and groundwater (regime #3)

Westbrook Stream (seasonally)

The scenario assessed assumes that hard stand surfaces are removed from above the soil mass impacted by hydrocarbons.

4.2 RISK ESTIMATION MODEL/TOOL DEVELOPMENT FOR DQRA

The quantitative risk assessment was carried out in accordance with Environment Agency guidance document ‘Remedial Targets Methodology – Hydrogeological Risk Assessment for Land Contamination’[4]. Soil Target Concentrations were derived, for the relevant levels of assessment, using the EA’s Remedial Target Concentrations Worksheet (ver. 3.2). The worksheets for each level of the assessment are presented in Appendix F. It is noted that, since the scenario under investigation is speculative, the model is employed to calculate acceptable soil concentrations, or Target Soil Concentrations (TSCs), rather than to simulate an identified groundwater plume.

4.2.1 Source of contamination and Contaminants of Potential Concern (CoPC)

The general dimensions of the area where residual contamination is assumed to be present are summarised in Table 4.2 (Appendix A). The source of contaminants has been described in detail in the previous sections of this report.

Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) was selected as reference parameter for the assessment (CoPC). Since the most abundant TPH component observed in the samples tested during the 2014 site investigation (Figure 4.1) was the EC>16-35 aliphatic component and the EC>21-35 component, the properties of these components of TPH were employed in the model[9]. This is deemed to be a conservative approach in that while higher EC molecules (EC>35) are also present, albeit in lower concentrations, these are generally less mobile within the respective aromatic and aliphatic components.

Figure 4.1 Composition of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons found in the soil in samples taken in 2014 (MEL report

2003-798).

4.2.2 Migration pathways and potential receptors

Contamination is deemed to be leachate driven by meteoric infiltration water from the source area into the groundwater. Further migration is considered to be occurring in the aqueous phase along the groundwater flow direction, reaching the identified receptors. Each groundwater regime will be independently assessed. The distance to the receptor (Irish Sea) in groundwater Regime #2 (regional gravel aquifer) is assumed to be approximately 500m whereas the distance to the Westbrook Stream through the shallow clay/sand aquifer (Regime #3) is estimated to be approximately 50m. Further details regarding the quantitative representation of the pathway characteristics are provided in paragraphs 3.2.4.1 to 3.2.4.3 below.

4.2.3 Definition of target concentrations (controlled waters)

The main groundwater quality criteria selected for the assessment was the Irish Interim Guideline Values (IGV) limit for TPH of 0.01mg/L[5]. The Dutch Groundwater Target Value (0.05mg/L)[6] and Intervention Value (0.6mg/L) for Mineral Oil (MO) are also included in the assessment and computed Target Soil Concentrations (TSCs) compared with TPH concentrations in the soil. An exceedance of the TSCs is considered to be within one of the following categories in Table 4.3 below. This categorisation is proposed by MEL in the absence of any known formal published categorisation.

Table 4.3 Definition of exceedances.

Classification Comment

Minor exceedance A value which exceeds the reference standard by <1.5 times.

Moderate exceedance A value which exceeds the reference standard by 1.5 to 3 times.

Significant exceedance A value which exceeds the reference standard by >3 times.

4.2.4 Quantitative model development, sensitivity analysis & calibration

Where available, site specific data was employed in the model. Where site specific data was not available, the input parameters for the model were selected conservatively (protective of the environment) from literature values, where a range of parameters was available a sensitivity analysis exercise was carried out prior to selecting a value for the model.

4.2.4.1 Level 1 Assessment

This level of assessment is the most conservative and considers whether the concentrations in the pore water in a contaminated soil are elevated enough to impact on the receptor. In practice this can be achieved by comparing one of the following to a relevant assessment criterion:

i) Measured pore water concentrations

ii) Soil leaching test

iii) Theoretical calculations based on soil/water partitioning equations

The assessment at Level 1 was carried out on the basis of theoretical calculations (iii). The input parameters employed in the calculations are summarised in Table 4.4 (Regime #2 and Regime #3). Details of the source of the parameter value employed are also listed.

4.2.4.2 Level 2 Assessment

At Level 2 measured or modelled groundwater quality from immediately below the source zone are compared directly with the relevant assessment criteria. Since the scenario being considered is hypothetical (removal of impermeable cover) the values assessed have been modelled in accordance with the Remedial Targets Methodology.

As indicated in Paragraph 3.3, compliance with the computed target concentration is achieved at Level 1 for the aliphatic EC>16-35 component. However, the assessment was progressed to Level 2 for the aromatic EC>21-35 component. The input parameters employed in the calculations are summarised in Table 4.5 (Regime #2) and Table 4.6 (Regime #3). Details of the source of the parameter value employed are also listed.

However, a more conservative 0.0037 values is used to represent the average gradient between MW103B and the Irish Sea (as measured on the 25/04/2014).

Saturated aquifer thickness

4.0E+00 m According to the borehole logs of MW2 at least 4.0 m of saturated aquifer is encountered (MEL Report 2003-115). Therefore 4.0 m was used in the interest of a conservative approach.

Hydraulic Conductivity of aquifer in which dilution occurs

1.0E+00 m/d From literature values for fine SAND[13] the hydraulic conductivity was estimated based on a sensitivity analysis for values between 10 m/d and 0.1 m/d.

Hydraulic gradient of water table

5.0E-03 fraction Measured between MW5 and MW1[3] (25/04/2014 groundwater level data over a distance of ca. 67 m). While the gradient has shown to be seasonally variable, on the date considered the groundwater flow was directed towards the Westbrook Stream (the intended receptor) and therefore the values was used in the model. MW5 and MW1 are generally located side gradient of MW2. However, the value is deemed to acceptably represent the conditions encountered between MW2 and the Westbrook.

At Level 3 (attenuation in the aquifer), the observed groundwater contamination below the site is compared directly with the target concentration multiplied by an attenuation factor (AF), which is calculated on the basis of the hydrogeological conditions considered.

As indicated in Paragraph 3.3, compliance with the computed target concentration is achieved in Regime #2 and Regime #3 at Level 1 for the aliphatic EC>21-35 component. The assessment was progressed to Level 3 for the aromatic EC>21-35 component. The input parameters employed in the calculations are summarised in Table 4.7 (Regime #2) and Table 4.8 (Regime #3). Details of the source of the parameter value employed are also listed.

4.3 DETAILED RISK EVALUATION

4.3.1 Source zone data management and model results

Table 4.9 summarises the computed Target Soil Concentrations (TSCs) for the TPH components considered. The values are developed to represent the potential impacts resulting from the hypothetical removal of impermeable cover layers (such as concrete and tarmacadam) present at the site. Here the TSCs are conservatively compared to the concentration of relevant TPH components recorded at the Site during the April 2014 site investigation. Mean values and maximum values are presented for evaluation.

4.3.2 Results of detailed quantitative risk assessment

Overall, the model indicates that compliance with the IGV limit for groundwater quality would be expected in the regional groundwater aquifer (Regime #2) even if the impermeable surfaces of the site were removed.

While groundwater in the gravel aquifer would likely be impacted (Level 2) compliance with the IGV limit would be achieved only a short distance downgradient of the spill area (Figure 4.2). In consideration of:

1. Removal of the cover is an unlikely event in the near future (confirmed by Cecil Black, Nypro Management to EPA several times and is due to the fact that the Bray site has very limited physical expansion opportunities);

2. Compliance with the TSC for Dutch Target Value would be achieved at Level 2 (immediately below the source area) for the highest concentration recorded in soil samples taken in 2014 (aromatic EC>21-35);

3. Size and nature of the receptor (the Irish Sea);

the risk posed by the residual soil contamination to the environment of Regime #2 is deemed to be negligible.

Figure 4.2 Modelled concentration of TPH in groundwater vs distance along the main flow path in Regime #2 (Graph

was obtained for a starting soil concentration of Aromatic EC>21-35 of 490 mg/kg) – Remedial Target Worksheet.

Conversely, in Regime #3, the model indicates that compliance with the IGV limit would not be achieved if the impermeable cover above the contaminated area was to be removed. It is, however, noted that a significant number of conservative assumptions have been included in to the model. Therefore, in consideration of the following:

1. Removal of the cover is an unlikely event in the near future (confirmed by Cecil Black, Nypro Management to EPA several times and is due to the fact that the Bray site has very limited physical expansion opportunities);

2. Organic nature of the aquifer between the source and the receptor (the Westbrook Stream);

3. Variable relationship with the receptor;

4. Compliance with the TSC for Dutch Intervention Value would be achieved at Level 1 (in the pore water) for the highest concentration recorded in soil samples taken 2014 (aromatic EC>21-35);

5. Assuming a half-life of 920 days, the average concentration of aromatic TPH (EC>21-35) in the soil (April 2014 data) would reduce to below the TSC calculated for the Dutch Target Value at Level 3 in less than 2 years;

The risk posed by the residual soil contamination to the environment of Regime #3 is deemed to be low.

5. SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

5.1.1 Soil contamination

A review of the data has shown that the concentration in the soil of contaminants associated with the historical spill on site has reduced overtime. This confirms that natural attenuation has occurred and is occurring, albeit at a slower rate than predicted by the Monitored Natural Attenuation (MNA) model developed for the site in 2010.

5.1.2 Generic Quantitative Risk Assessment: Present Scenario

The quantitative risk assessment conducted for impacts on controlled waters shows that, at present, the risk posed by the residual contamination to the locally important GRAVEL aquifer (groundwater regime #2) and the Westbrook Stream (groundwater regime #3) is very low. The remedial targets (MNA remediation approach) are therefore deemed to be generally met. A minor concern exists for regime #3 due to the presence of Extractable Petroleum Hydrocarbons (EPH), Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) and Mineral Oil (MO) concentrations above the IGV value of 0.01mg/L in the groundwater at MW2 (closest monitoring point to the contaminated area). However, parameters listed above have been below detection limit 2014, and a review of the historical data would indicate that a natural load of hydrocarbons is present in the catchment in the form of organic layers (containing peat) within the flood plain of the Westbrook stream. Additionally, it is at present unclear if the elevated EPH, TPH and MO in MW1 are related to the hydrocarbon spill (vicinity of MW3R) or are associated with run-off from the car park area at the far eastern side of the site. However, the data suggests that the contamination that is being observed in MW1 is different to that observed upgradient, as mentioned in section 2.4 of this document. However, if indeed associated with the spill, it is expected that the groundwater quality at MW1 would return to background values (<0.01 mg/L) within a two (2) years period as observed for MW3R.

5.1.3 Detailed Quantitative Risk Assessment: Cover Removal Scenario

At present the impact of contaminants in the soil is mitigated by the presence of an extensive covering of the site with impermeable materials (such as buildings, concrete and tarmacadam) which practically eliminate the infiltration of rainwater. The detailed risk assessment shows that, should the covering surfaces be removed, the impact of residual contamination could result in an exceedance of the IGV limit of 0.01mg/L in Regime #2 at Level 2 of the assessment. However, Regime #2 showed to be protected at Level 3 within approximately 25m for groundwater flowing towards the Irish Sea indicating that a negligible risk is posed by the residual contamination to this regime. Conversely, the results indicate that groundwater within Regime #3 is at risk of not being compliant with the IGV and Dutch Target Value limit at Level 3 indicating the possibility of impacts on the Westbrook Stream. However, it is noteworthy that a variable relationship exists with the stream (influent/affluent) and that natural source of hydrocarbons would be present within the catchment. Also the organic nature of the soils between the site and the stream would be seen as mitigating circumstance in that organic material sorbs / bind hydrocarbons.

5.1.4 Remedial options

Monitored Natural Attenuation was selected as the remedial option for the site. While the contaminant mass reduction has been observed to be less than anticipated at the start of the contamination management process (achievement of remedial targets was expected to occur in 2012), the risk posed

to the environment has significantly reduced to a point that it can be considered low. It is noted, that the implementation of alternative remedial options is significantly limited by the nature of the operations being conducted in the yard where contaminated soils are observed. The site is operating on a 24/7 regime and the yard acts as the main loading bay for the products being shipped resulting in almost constant trafficking of the yard. Therefore any excavation or remedial infrastructure installation operations would have potentially serious indirect financial implication for the operation. However, the groundwater quality monitoring results indicate that the residual contamination has a generally negligible impact on the groundwater immediately below the spill area. Additionally, the migration of contaminants in the unsaturated ground would appear to have greatly reduced indicating that further expansion of the impacted soil mass would be unlikely or limited. This suggests that the present capping of the yard with impermeable surfaces, such as tarmacadam and concrete, would, in fact, represent a sufficient mitigation measure: highlighting capping of the contaminated area as a viable remedial strategy. Therefore, no further remedial action is recommended at present especially since there is low (non-negligible) risk should the impermeable covers be removed as part of a redevelopment of the site.

5.1.5 Summary

Expressed simply, the risk assessment work suggests that, the Irish Sea and the Westbrook Stream are unlikely to be impacted by residual hydrocarbon contaminants from the site. However, with the impermeable surface (concrete and tarmacadam) removed the modelling exercise shows that there is a minor risk to the Westbrook Stream. It should be noted that, given the nature of the site operations, the business commitment to the site as expressed each meeting with the EPA in Wexford, and its current layout, the removal of impermeable surfaces is deemed a highly unlikely occurrence in the foreseeable future. Additionally, Nypro has made a committed move away from hydraulic machinery employed at the site and is presently in the process of implementing this strategy. This will further reduce the risks associated with the site by reducing the future risk of spills which could worsen the present conditions.

5.2 RECOMMENDED WAY FORWARD

5.2.1 Bi-annual water monitoring should cease

It is recommended that groundwater monitoring should cease. By way of background to this it was recommended as a precaution in the 2014 Risk Assessment report (Ref.: 2003-797) that biannual water sampling and laboratory analysis continues until there are 4 consecutive monitoring events (2 years) showing that groundwater quality has returned to acceptable concentrations. That is, 90% of values for TPH and MO are below the Dutch Target Value (DTV) of 0.05mg/l in locations MW3R (location of source) and MW2 (directly/immediately downgradient of source). MW1 is excluded from such criteria due to the uncertainty related to the results obtained at that location, as discussed in Section 5.2 of this report.

The latest groundwater monitoring report (MEL report 2003-818) states that this criteria has been met. In fact, since November 2013 (7 consecutive monitoring events which is more than 3 years), 100% concentrations of TPH and MO at MW2 and MW3R have been below the referenced limits (DTV 0.05mg/l).

With reference to this report and to the conclusions made in the latest groundwater monitoring report (2003-818) it is clear that the residual contamination on site is at very low levels through natural attenuation and continues to reduce if not undetectable already (below limit of detection) in most instances. The risk of the site developing a reversal of the downward trend in concentration is considered low. Similarly, the risk to receptors is considered low.

5.2.2 No financial provision needs to be provided

It is recommended that no financial provision needs to be in place because the results of this risk assessment indicate that capping of the contaminated soil mass, currently in place by default (tarmacadam and concrete), would be an effective and more sustainable option overall.

5.2.3 Licence surrender to commence now

The Company should now complete the EPA’s licence surrender application form because the activity for which the licence was acquired ceased years ago, and the Irish Sea and the Westbrook Stream are unlikely to be impacted by residual hydrocarbon contaminants from the site. It is understood that the EPA has in the past permitted the surrender of a licence with residual contamination on site. It is noted that the site is zoned Commercial and Industrial not Domestic.

sample results and

associated reference limits. Public Parks (POSpark)A public park is an area of open

space provided for recreational use

and usually owned and maintained

by the Local Authority. It is

anticipated that POSpark could be

used for a wide range of activities,

including the following: Family visits

and picnics; Children’s play area;

Sporting activities such as football

on an informal basis (although this

POS is not considered as a

dedicated sports pitch); and Dog

walking.

CommercialThis generic

scenario assumes a typical commercial or

light industrial roperty consisting of a

three-storey building at which employees

spend most time indoors and are involved

in office-based or relatively light physical

work.

sample results and

associated reference limits. Public Parks (POSpark)A public park is an area of open

space provided for recreational use

and usually owned and maintained

by the Local Authority. It is

anticipated that POSpark could be

used for a wide range of activities,

including the following: Family visits

and picnics; Children’s play area;

Sporting activities such as football

on an informal basis (although this

POS is not considered as a

dedicated sports pitch); and Dog

walking.

CommercialThis generic

scenario assumes a typical commercial or

light industrial roperty consisting of a

three-storey building at which employees

spend most time indoors and are involved

in office-based or relatively light physical

work.

Care should be used when calculating remedial targets using the time variant options as this may result in an overestimate of the remedial target.

The recommended value for time when calculating the remedial target is 9.9E+99

The measured soil concentration as mg/kg or pore water concentration should be compared

with the Level 3 remedial target to determine the need for further action.

Note: 'Relative concentration' is the ratio of calculated concentation at a given

position compared to the source concentration. The calculations assume

plume disperses from the top of the aquifer. An alternative solution assuming

the centre of the plume is located at the mid-depth of the aquifer is presented

in the calculation sheets.

This sheet calculates the Level 3 remedial target for soils(mg/kg) or for pore water (mg/l),

based on the distance to the receptor or compliance located down hydraulic gradient of the

source Three solution methods are included, the preferred option is Ogata Banks.By setting a

long travel time (e.g. 9E99) it will give the steady state solution, which should always be used

when calculating remedial targets.

This worksheet should be used if pollutant transport and

degradation is best described by a first order reaction. If

degradation is best desribed by an electron limited

degradation such as oxidation by O2, NO3, SO4 etc than an

alternative solution should be used

The measured soil concentration as mg/kg or pore water concentration should be compared

with the Level 3 remedial target to determine the need for further action.

Note: 'Relative concentration' is the ratio of calculated concentation at a given

position compared to the source concentration. The calculations assume

plume disperses from the top of the aquifer. An alternative solution assuming

the centre of the plume is located at the mid-depth of the aquifer is presented

in the calculation sheets.

This sheet calculates the Level 3 remedial target for soils(mg/kg) or for pore water (mg/l),

based on the distance to the receptor or compliance located down hydraulic gradient of the

source Three solution methods are included, the preferred option is Ogata Banks.By setting a

long travel time (e.g. 9E99) it will give the steady state solution, which should always be used

when calculating remedial targets.

Remedial Targets Worksheet , Release 3.2

TPH (Aromatic EC>16-35)

This worksheet should be used if pollutant transport and

degradation is best described by a first order reaction. If

degradation is best desribed by an electron limited

degradation such as oxidation by O2, NO3, SO4 etc than an

alternative solution should be used

The measured soil concentration as mg/kg or pore water concentration should be compared

with the Level 3 remedial target to determine the need for further action.

Note: 'Relative concentration' is the ratio of calculated concentation at a given

position compared to the source concentration. The calculations assume

plume disperses from the top of the aquifer. An alternative solution assuming

the centre of the plume is located at the mid-depth of the aquifer is presented

in the calculation sheets.

This sheet calculates the Level 3 remedial target for soils(mg/kg) or for pore water (mg/l),

based on the distance to the receptor or compliance located down hydraulic gradient of the

source Three solution methods are included, the preferred option is Ogata Banks.By setting a

long travel time (e.g. 9E99) it will give the steady state solution, which should always be used

when calculating remedial targets.
