EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Upon review of groundwater analytical results as shown in Table total of three
monitoring well locations revealed VOC concentrations above detection limits for certain
chlorinated hydrocarbons
Groundwater sample MW-2 showed 37 ppb Trans-l2-Dichloroethene DCE 10 ppb
Tetrachioroethene PCE and detected Trichloroethene TCE below the quantitation limit
of ppb The groundwater sample from MW-3 revealed 111-Trichloroethane TCA at 10
ppb and detected Trans-12-Dichloroethene below the quantitation limit of ppb
Groundwater sample MW-4 showed only that Tetrachioroethene was detected below
quantitation limits of ppb
In downgradient groundwater sample MW-2 PCE and vinyl chloride were detected abov
the action levels The action levels are based on the Maximum Contaminant Level MCL
for drinking water sources Analytical results from both rounds of groundwater samples
collected show similar results regarding the presence of low concentrations of volatile
constituents In each case monitoring well location MW-2 revealed concentrations of
volatile compounds above the MCLs for drinking water for certain contaminants
Verification of groundwater flow direction indicate this well is at downgradient location
with respect to Lot One
ATEC recommends that this information be provided to Indiana Department of
Environmental Management IDEM due to the Avanti site being listed as CERCUS site
by the IDEM and the confirmed presence of low concentrations of contamination in the
groundwater ATECs recommendation to the IDEM is to perform an initial risk assessment
to determine possible impact of groundwater users in the area The groundwater sources
used as drinking water supplies may or may not be hydrogeologically interconnected with
the aquifer sampled through these monitoring wells Demonstration of low possible impact
of downgradient receptors and further verification of possible off-site sources may act to
decrease concerns that this site could be adversely affecting drinking water supplies It
should be noted that TCA and PCE were detected in groundwater samples collected at
location on Lot One through study conducted by EIS Environmental Engineers Inc of
South Bend Indiana The client provided ATEC data concerning this matter
With regard to test results collected from soil borings B-I through B-5 no concentrations
of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons TPH were detected These boriligs were located near
two USTs at the west side of the Avanti building Based on the lack of TPH detected
in these borings gross contamination was not discovered as result of these USTs It should
be noted that one UST is also located at the southeast corner of the Avanti building
The exact location of this UST could not be confirmed Also electrical overhead lines cross
this immediate area ATEC was unable to place any drill borings near this UST
All three USTs have been out of service for more than 12 months and have not been
closed per industry standards based on information obtained to date therefore exceed
temporary closure requirements As result of this and based on the Code of Federal
Regulation CFR Part 280 for Underground Storage Tanks the owner and operators of this
property are required to permanently close each UST system per the regulatory standards
ATEC recommends that closure be performed to include complete removal of these USTs
from the subsurface Upon request ATEC can provide you with full description of closure
activities and associated costs
In general debris scrap material machinery and equipment do not present substantial
environmental concerns requiring special action It is recommended that these items be
removed from the facility to prevent any contamination For example equipment and
machinery should be removed in manner to prevent leakage of hydraulic fluids or oils and
gasoline
Concerning liquid materials identified in drums or smaller containers ATEC recommends
that proper care be taken in choosing remedial procedures Liquid chemicals should be
removed and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable regulations Upon request
ATEC can provide you with full description of removal transportation and disposal
procedures and associated costs

information the study site was developed into wagon manufacturing plant by two
Studebaker brothers from vacant land in the late 1800s During the early 1900s
the facility was converted to automotive manufacturing as part of the Studebaker
complex located in South Bend Indiana
The facility continued to function as an automotive manufacturing facility through
the mid 1900s with the addition of Room 108 shown in Figure added in 1942 The
Avanti automobile manufacturing initiated operations in the 1960s and continued
until 1988 Operations of the Avanti manufacturing were sporadic between 1986 and
1988 No manufacturing operations were on-going at the time of this investigation
however Room 108 was used for storage of some automobiles and parts
2.2 Physical Characteristics
The Site has level topography with an elevation of approximately 725 ft above mean
sea level MSL based on information provided by the South Bend West Indiana
7.5 Minute Quadrangle published by the U.S Geological Survey in 1969 Photo
Revised in 1986 Regional topography slopes gently to the northeast toward the St
Joseph River
Jefferson Avenue at the St Joseph River has an elevation of 701 ft MSL The river
flows from southeast to southwest and is located approximately 3/4 mile northeast
of the project site Drainage at the site is controlled by infiltration in open and
grassed areas and by gutters and curbing
Construction grading and filling have altered the original surface soil characteristics
at most of the study site The U.S Department of Agriculture Soil Survey for St
Joseph County Indiana classifies the soil as Urban-land-fox complex The boring logs
compiled by the ATEC field geologists during the on-site drilling activities indicate
the subsoil at the site is predominantly silty with fine to coarse sand throughout
copy of each boring log is provided in Appendix
Groundwater depth in the monitoring wells ranged from 24.61 ft to 23.21 ft below
ground surface The boring logs in Appendix provide the water level in each well
After completion of the monitoring well installation and sampling the top of the
casing from each monitoring well was surveyed to determine the direction of
groundwater flow Table provides data on groundwater elevation for each well
using an arbitrary benchmark of 100 ft MSL located at the site Figure illustrates
monitoring well locations and the potentiometric surface of the groundwater based
on data shown in Table As shown the groundwater elevation decreases across the
site from southwest to northeast This indicates that groundwater flow direction is
generally to the northeast toward the St Joseph River

site The high ranking sites are subject to inclusion on the NPL The low ranked sites
or those deemed no immediate concern remain on the CERCLIS List
ATEC has reviewed records located at the Indiana Department of Environmental
Management IDEM in the Office of Solid and Hazardous Waste Management
OSHWM concerning the regulatory status of the Avanti facility The Avanti site is
listed as CERCLIS site based on an IDEM report dated March 1990 At that time
an EPA identification number was not assigned to this facility
Also based on report from the IDEM Commissioners Office dated December 10
1990 the IDEM has re-evaluated many CERCLIS sites through the state of which
the Avanti site was included The IDEM generated score of 27.6 based on the new
CERCLIS site scoring methods and procedures copy of this procedure and
listing of the CERCLIS sites scored is found in Appendix
3.0 GROUNDWATER MONITORING PROGRAM
3.1 Work Performed
On November 26 and 28 1990 ATEC personnel from the Indianapolis Drilling and
Consulting Divisions performed subsurface investigation consisting of the
installation of four monitoring wells The purpose of the investigation was to
collect samples to determine if previous activities at the site adversely impacted the
quality of soil or groundwater Photographic documentation of drilling activities can
be found in Appendix
ATEC advanced all borings using truck-mounted rotary drill rig equipped with 3-
3/8 in diameter hollow stem augers Soil samples were collected at 2.5 ft intervals
using decontaminated carbon steel split-spoon sampler to the base of the wells
Each split-spoon sample was physically inspected by the field geologist for signs of
contamination such as staining or hydrocarbon odors The samples were also field
screened for Total Flame-ionizable Vapors TFVs with Porta FID II The Porta
FID detects TFVs emitted from the soil in parts per million ppm The operating
procedures regarding the Porta FID are provided in Appendix All pertinent
information collected by the geologist for each boring including soil classification
physical observations and TFV readings were recorded on the ATEC boring logs in
Appendix
One soil sample exhibiting the highest potential for contamination based on
visual observations and field screening was collected from each monitoring well for
Volatile Organic Compounds VOCs and total heavy metals analysis ATEC
considered MW-4 an upgradient well and therefore the soil from this boring was
assumed to be representative of background conditions All four soil samples
were collected preserved and transported to ATECs laboratory in Indianapolis
Indiana for analysis following all chain-of-custody procedures
During the drilling of each boring water was noted on the drilling rods at depth
between 22.5 ft and 25.0 ft Each boring was advanced to 7.0 ft below groundwater
for well installation ATECs standard well construction consists of 7.0 ft length of
in diameter PVC slot screen extending below the groundwater surface and 3.0 ft
of screen above to allow for seasonal fluctuations in the water table The boring
annulus was filled by naturally occurring sand and by adding silica sand where
needed bentonite seal was placed above the sand pack to prevent vertical
migration of surface water into the well The remaining annular space was grouted
and the wells completed and secured with either flush-mounted manhole cover or
protective cover stick-up The wells were developed by over pumping to cleanse the
well screen of fine-grained material and ensure good hydraulic conductivity with the
surrounding aquifer Complete well construction details are provided in Appendix
On November 30 1990 groundwater samples were collected from the four
monitoring wells Before obtaining the samples each well was purged of minimum
of three well volumes to ensure representative groundwater sample Teflon
bailer with polypropylene rope was utilized for purging and the collection of the
samples Between monitoring well samples the bailer was decontaminated with an
on-site tap water and Premier detergent wash tap water rinse followed by triple
distilled water rinse The groundwater samples collected were analyzed for VOCs and
total heavy metal All four groundwater samples were collected preserved and
transported to the ATEC laboratory following appropriate chain-of-custody
procedures
On November 29 1990 the four monitoring wells were surveyed The top of the
casing of each well was surveyed into an arbitrary benchmark with an assigned
elevation of 100.0 ft The groundwater elevations collected on November 30 1990
using Solinist water level indicator were used in conjunction with the survey data
to determine water table elevations groundwater table map including flow
direction is shown in Figure as discussed in Section 2.2 of this report
3.2 Analytical Results
total of four soil and four groundwater samples were collected from the
Avanti site and submitted to the ATEC laboratory for analysis Each soil and
groundwater sample submitted to the laboratory was tested for Total Heavy Metals
THMs and Volatile Organic Compounds VOCs THM analysis includes testing
for total arsenic barium cadmium lead mercury selenium and silver Analysis for
VOCs includes testing for total of thirty-five 35 various organic compounds
including certain petroleum constituents and several chlorinated hydrocarbons
Complete documentation of laboratory analytical reports is provided in Appendix
Soil metals were analyzed on Perkin-Elmer 5100 Atomic Absorption
Spectrophotometer according to the 7000 Series of the methods outlined in SW 846
and Thermo Jarrell Ash ICAP-61 according to SW 846 Method 6010 Groundwater
metals were analyzed on Perkin-Elmer 5100 Atomic AbsorptiorSpectrophotometer
and Thermo Jarrell Ash ICAP-61 according to EPA-600/4-79-020 Method 200
The soil volatile samples were analyzed on Finnigan 1020 OWA GC/MS/DS
System complete with Superincos Software via SW 846 Method 8240 for Purgeable
Organic Compounds The groundwater volatile samples were analyzed on Finnigan
Incos 50 GC/MS/DS System complete with Superincos Software via U.S EPA
Method 624 for Purgeable Organic Compounds Prior to soil or groundwater analysis
the system was tuned against Bromofluorobenzene and calibrated with the
appropriate standard
3.2.1 Soil Analysis
Total heavy metals analysis of soils samples revealed three metals barium
chromiufn and lead detected at concentrations above quantithtion limits The
quantitation limit is the minimum concentration in which the laboratory instrument
can assign value for each individual test performed As shown below Table
summarizes test results of soil samples collected from monitoring well MW
locations and the depth from which each soil sample was collected

Volatile Organic Compounds VOC5 analysis of soils detected VOC constituents at
sample locations MW-2 and MW-4 summary of these test results is provided in
Table
The client should note that methylene chloride is reported as being detected in many
samples Methylene chloride as well as acetone and toluene are used as laboratory
extraction solvents for various organic analyses Although the extraction and
preparation processes are all performed by trained personnel in separate rooms
under vented fumehood some vapors escape and are released into the laboratory
10
atmosphere The release of these vapors into the laboratory atmosphere is basically
random process dependent upon daily usage and the care and diligence of
laboratory personnel involved in handling the solvents Once these compounds are
released into the atmosphere they can contaminate any sample once it is removed
from the sample container and exposed to the atmosphere Given the extreme
sensitivit of the analytical instrumentation these compounds are often detected in
low levels in environmental samples The U.S EPA1 recognizes concentrations of
these contaminants up to five times the quantitation limit as laboratory artifacts
The quantitation limit for methylene chloride in these sample tests is ppm
Therefore ATEC believes these concentrations are result of laboratory artifacts
and not due to on-site activities All VOCs detected in soils are shown in Table
with the exception of methylene chloride

3.3.1 Soil
Total heavy metals occur naturally in soils and geologic formations Acceptable
background concentrations of total metals in soils are provided by the U.S
Geological Survey USGS The source used by ATEC for this project is the USGS
professional paper 1270 by Shacklette and Boerngen Acceptable concentrations are
determined by using statistical methods on data from multiple sampling points The
acceptable background concentrations for various metals are calculated and provided
in the USGS paper The actual background concentrations are then calculated by
adding the mean of the sample concentration to three times the standard
deviation of the sample concentrations The calculated sample values and acceptable

sample The MCL for barium is 5.0 mg/L
4.0 SOILS SAMPLING AND TESTING
Soil borings were advanced at five locations near two underground storage
tanks USTs as illustrated in Figure The presence of these USTs was based on
visual indications such as fill ports and vent pipe however the exact location of these
USTs is unknown The borings were placed as close to these USTs as possible to
determine if gross contamination may have resulted from past use of these USTs

4.1 Work Pºformed
On November 29 1990 ATEC personnel from the Environmental and Drilling
Divisions arrived on-site to perform subsurface investigation around the USTs on
site The objective of the investigation was to determine if soil contamination was
present as result of former USTs located on the site Photographic documentation
of these drilling activities can be found in Appendix
ATEC utilized truck-mounted rotary drill rig equipped with 3-3/8 in I.D hollow
stem augers Three borings designated B-I through B-3 were advanced to
depth of 15.0 ft and two borings designated B-4 and B-5 were advanced to
depth of 25.0 ft Soil samples from borings B-I through B-3 were collected at 2.5 ft
intervals using carbon steel split-spoon sampler Soil samples from borings B-4 and
B-5 were collected at 5.0 ft intervals to depth of 18.5 ft and at 2.5 ft intervals to
groundwater The boring locations are shown in Figure
During drilling operations decontamination procedures were performed on the split-
spoon samplers and the auger head drill bit Between each sample collection and
each boring the split-spoon and auger head respectively were decontaminated using
tap water and concentrated detergent All visible soils adhering to the equipment
were removed and tap water and final distilled water rinse was performed
The soil from each split-spoon sampler was visually inspected by an ATEC geologist
for indications of contamination i.e staining and odor The lithology of the soil in
each boring was classified by the field geologist utilizing the Unified Soil
Classification System USCS The samples from each interval were monitored for
fotal Flame-ionizable Vapors TFV5 utilizing Porta-FID and readings were
recorded in parts per million ppm description of the Porta-FID and the
procedures used in this investigation are provided in Appendix All information
concerning the borings was recorded on an ATEC boring log Complete boring logs
are provided in Appendix
15
The soil sample exhibiting the highest TFV reading or most potential for
contamination was placed into sample jar for laboratory analysis All appropriate
chain-of-custody procedures were followed in the transportation of the samples to
ATECs laboratory in Indianapolis Indiana
4.2 Aiialyticl Results
total of five soil samples identified B-i through B-5 were collected from the
Avanti site for analysis Each of the five soil samples were tested for Total
Petroleum Hydrocarbons TPH based on the suspected contents and use of the
USTs containing or having contained petroleum products Complete documentation
of laboratory analysis is provided in Appendix
Total hydrocarbons analyses were performed on Perkin-Elmer 727B Infrared
Spectrophotometer according to EPA-600/4.79-020 Method 418.1
Soil samples from locations B-i B-2 and B-3 were collected at depth ranging from
13.5 to 15.0 ft Sandy soils were encountered during drilling which indicates increased
vertical movement of contaminants is possible Based on this soil samples from
locations B-4 and B-5 were collected at depth ranging from 21.0 to 22.5 ft
Concerning analytical laboratory results obtained from each soil boring sample
submitted for TPH no sample revealed concentrations above the quantitation limit
of i.0 ppm Based on this information it is not believed that gross contamination has
resulted from the past use of these USTs
5.0 INTERIOR VISUAL INSPECTION
On November 27 1990 visual inspection and walk-through was conducted by Matt
Stokes Project Environmental Scientist and Chuck Cashman ATEC Environmental
Geologist This inspection included an examination of the interior structure at the
Avanti location
16
The site consists of former automobile manufacturing facility with one structure
on approximately acres The structure consists of 4-story brick building with
concrete floors on the main level and hardwood floors on each upper level The
structure was divided into four rooms on the main level and three rooms each
on the upper levels Room 108 at the east end of the structure was added on after
original onstruction and only occupies the main level
Generally all rooms have been cleared of machinery equipment and debris
sometime prior to this inspection with some exceptions Lighting was very poor due
to lack of interior lights and inclement weather The majority of the visual inspection
was made using hand-held flashlights and lighting from windows Also during this
interior inspection heavy rains were on-going and due to apparent roof damage or
deterioration severe leaking was occurring through all three upper levels to the
main level Wet floors and standing water were prevalent throughout the structure
It should be noted that an asbestos sampling and testing program was performed and
will be submitted to you by ATECs Industrial Hygiene Division under separate
cover
5.1 Main Level
5.1.1 Room 108
This room is located at the east end of the structure and is currently used for storage
of some automobiles and parts The southeast portion of this room consisted of the
office/showroom area No visual signs of environmental concerns were noted in this
area
The north portion of this room was apparently used for automotive repair and
painting Three below grade sumps were discovered in this area One small
sump was 6.0 ft long by 6.0 ft wide with approximately 3.0 ft of waste oil at the base
of the sump The two large sumps were 12.0 ft long by 12.0 ft wide with
approximately 1.0 ft of an oil/water mixture Photographic documentation of this
area can be found in Appendix
17
paint booth located immediately west of these large sumps had an associated sump
or basin which was covered with wood and filled with plastic sheeting and some
liquid At this time the contents and depth of this sump could not be determined
The size of this sump was approximately 6.0 ft by 4.0 ft long Photographic
documentation of these sumps is provided in Appendix
The west portion of this room consisted of drive-through car wash booth
Immediately south of this several automobiles were being stored In general some
debris and large sign was noted in this same area Minor staining of floors was
noted due to normal automotive leakage
5.1.2 Room 33
Based on visual inspection only debris such as scrap wood and boxes were remaining
in this room on the main level It should be noted that capped metal riser
approximately in in diameter is located along the north wall near the center of this
room The function of this riser is unknown based on visual inspection
5.1.3 Room 34

6.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
6.1 Groundwater Monitoring Program
Upon review of groundwater analytical results collected in November 1990 as shown
in Table total of three monitoring well locations revealed VOC
concentrations above detection limits for certain chlorinated hydrocarbons The
second round of analysis also showed low concentrations of volatiles in fourth well
at this site
Groundwater sample MW-2 showed 37 ppb Trans-12-Dichloroethene DCE 10 ppb
Tetrachioroethene PCE and detected Trichloroethene TCE below the
quantitation limit of ppb The groundwater sample from MW-3 revealed 111-
Trichloroethane TCA at 10 ppb and detected Trans-12-Dichloroethene below the
quantitation limit of ppb Groundwater sample MW-4 showed only that
Tetrachloroethene was detected below quantitation limits of ppb
The second round of testing showed MW-2 with 18 ppb DCE ppb PCE and 33
ppb vinyl chloride The groundwater sample from MW-3 showed similar
concentrations in each sampling event for DCE and TCA with the detection of 11-
Dichloroethane at less than the quantitation limit MW-4 revealed the same results
in both sampling events The second round of sampling and testing however
revealed ppb DCE in the sample from MW-i
The chlorinated hydrocarbons detected in these samples are not naturally occurring
in the environment and are generally present due to manufacturing or other man
made operations Many organic solvents are used in automotive and various
machining industries as degreasers paint solvents and cleaners The compounds
TCA TCE mid PCE are very common solvents used in heavy industry for degreasing
and various cleaning operations The DCE is chemical degradation product of TCE
and generally is found when concentrations of TCE are present PCE has many uses
in industry one of which includes dry cleaning operations
Downgradient monitoring well location MW-2 shows concentrations of these solvents
at low levels however the PCE and vinyl chloride is above the action levels of ppb
21
and ppb respectively Sample location MW-3 revealed that TCA was present with
this the only sample showing any concentration of this compound The concentration
of TCA is below the action level
Based on the proximity of monitoring well MW-4 and the groundwater flow direction
to the northeast this location is considered upgradient and contamination from this
well migit be considered from an off-site source The detection of PCE at this
location may indicate that concentrations in wells further downgradient are also due
to off-site sources
In order to make preliminary assessment of groundwater conditions and based on
economic reasons the scope of this study was recommended The groundwater
monitoring study conducted during this investigation must be considered an initial
assessment of groundwater conditions at this site Analytical results from both rounds
of groundwater samples collected show similar results regarding the presence of low
concentrations of volatile constituents In each case monitoring well location MW-2
revealed concentrations of volatile compounds above the MCLs for drinking water
for certain contaminants Verification of groundwater flow direction indicate this well
is at downgradient location with respect to Lot One
ATEC recommends that this information be provided to Indiana Department of
Environmental Management IDEM due to the Avanti site being listed as
CERCLIS site by the IDEM and the confirmed presence of low concentrations of
contamination in the groundwater ATECs recommendation to the IDEM is to
perform an initial risk assessment to determine possible impact of groundwater users
in the area The groundwater sources used as drinking water supplies may or may not
be hydrogeologically interconnected with the aquifer sanijled through these
monitoring wells Demonstration of low possible impact of downgradient receptors
and further verification of possible off-site sources may act to decrease concerns that
this site could be adversely affecting drinking water supplies It should be noted that
TCA and PCE were detected in groundwater samples collected at location on Lot
One through study conducted by ELS Environmental Engineers Inc of South Bend
Indiana The client provided ATEC data concerning this matter
22
6.2 Soil Sampling and Testing
With regard to test results collected from soil borings B-i through B-5 no
concentrations of Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons TPH were detected These
borings were located near two USTs at the west side of the Avanti building
Based on the lack of TPH detected in these borings gross contamination was not
discovered as result of these USTs It should be noted that one UST is also
located at the southeast corner of the Avanti building The exact location of this UST
could not be confirmed Also electrical overhead lines cross this immediate area
ATEC was unable to place any drill borings near this UST
All three USTs have been out of service for more than 12 months and have not
been closed per industry standards based on information obtained to date therefore
exceed temporary closure requirements As result of this and based on the Code
of Federal Regulation CFR Part 280 for Underground Storage Tanks the owner
and operators of this property are required to permanently close each UST system
per the regulatory standards ATEC recommends that closure be performed to
include complete removal of these USTs from the subsurface Upon request ATEC
can provide you with full description of closure activities and associated costs
6.3 Interior Visual Inspection
In general debris scrap material machinery and equipment do not present
substantial environmental concerns requiring special action It is recommended that
these items be removed from the facility to prevent any contamination For example
equipment and machinery should be removed in manner to prevent leakage of
hydraulic fluids or oils and gasoline
Concerning liquid materials identified in drums or smaller containers ATEC
recommends that proper care be taken in choosing remedial procedures Liquid
chemicals should be removed and disposed of off-site in accordance with applicable
regulations Upon request ATEC can provide you with full description of removal
transportation and disposal procedures and associated costs
23
Concerning oily liquids identified in three sumps located in Room 108 ATEC
recommends that complete chemical characterization of the samples be made to
determine appropriate off-site disposal procedures
Efforts concerning removal transportation and off-site disposal of containers of
liquids and oily liquids is recommended to be coordinated through ATEC ATEC will
utilize reputable waste disposal contractor to analyze and determine proper off-site
disposal methods Complete documentation of all activities would be provided Upon
request ATEC can provide you with complete description of activities required for
off-site disposal and associated costs

Subject Scoring of hazardous substances response sites utilizing
the Indiana Scoring Model ISM
Authority Title 329 IAC 723 sets forth guidelines for publishing
sites that have been scored utilizing the ISM
File Repository The public may inquire at the Department of Environmental
Managnent 105 South Meridian Street Indianapolis
Indiana 46201 Roan 901 to review and/or obtain spacific
information regarding particular sites scoring padcage
For further details contact the Office of Environmental
Response Site Investigation Section also located at the
aforementioned address
Introduction The Indiana Scoring Model ISM is method of
prioritizing for state response actions those hazardous
substances response sites which are not on the National
Priorities List NPL The ISM serves as the Commissioners
management tool to address those sites which pose the most
significant threat to human health and the environment in
addition to assuring the departments resources are
allocated accordingly
Hazardous substances response sites that are evaluated
utilizing the ISM are assigned numerical score Site
scoring will be dynanic process and scores may be subject
to change based on significant changes in site
circumstances receipt of additional Site information or
other relevant factors
The ISM combines three scores assigned to hazardous
substance response site as follows
5M reflects the potential for harm to humans or the
environment from the migration of hazardous
substance away from the facility by routes involving
groundwater surface water or air It is composite
of separate scores for eamb of th three routes
5FE reflects the potential for harm from substances
that can explode or cause fires
reflects the potential for harm from direct
contact with hazardous substances at the facility
i.e no migration need be involved
The score for each hazard mode migration fire arid
explosion and direct contact or route is obtained by
considering set of factors that characterize the
potential of the facility to cause larm Each factor
is assigned numerical value on scale of zero
to three five or eight according to
prescribed guidelines This value is then multiplied
by ighting factor yielding the factor score The
factor scores are then combined and scores within
factor category are imiltiplied together to develop
score for groundwater surface water air fire and
explosion and direct contact
In computing an individual migration route score the
product of its factor category scores is divided by
the maximum possible score and the resulting ratio is
multiplied by one hundred 100 The last step puts
all SFE or mode scores on scale of zero
to ten 10
SM is composite of the scores for the three
possible migration routes
IT7 Sgw2 S2 Sa2
Where groundwater route score
surface water route score
Sa air route score
The effect of this means of combining the route scores
is to emphasize the primary highest scoring route in
aggregating route scores while giving sane additional
consideration to the secondary or tertiary routes if
they score high The factor 1/1.73 is used simply for
the purpose of reducing SM scores to one hundred
100 point scale
The ISM does not guantify the probability of harm from
facility or the magnitude of the harm that could
result although the factors have been selected in
order to approximate both those elements of risk It
is procedure for ranking facilities in terms of the
potential threat they pose by describing

SCREENING EQUIPMENT
H-Nu
ATEC used portable instrument called an H-Nu to measure TPVs emitted from the soil
samples The H-Nu is equipped with small pump which continuously draws air samples
into an ionization chamber which is flooded with ultra-violet light Ionization of the vapors
within this chamber results in the generation of an electric current which relates to the
concentration of vapors below this energy Most of the light permanent gases such as those
in ambient air have ionization potentials at 12 eV or more while many organic chemicals
benzene xylene toluene etc have ionization potentials below 10.5 eV
For the purposes of this investigation the H-Nu was used as screening tool for the
presence of photo-ionizable contaminants Following extrusion the sample was placed in
plastic sample bag and the pump inlet for the H-Nu was placed in the bag for
measurement The highest value recorded during this procedure was recorded on the boring
logs For screening purposes ATEC relies on the calibration performed on the instrument
at the factory The factory calibrates the instrument to 100 ppm benzene therefore values
reported on the boring logs represent ppm as benzene In screening applications the actual
numerical values recorded are of secondary importance especially since there are no
established United States Environmental Protection Agency U.S EPA and the Indiana
Department of Environmental Management IDEM standards for TPVs The relative
magnitude of the values between sampling sites is considered to be of primary importance
in screening for the presence of contaminated samples In general background levels of
TPVs at an undeveloped site would be 25 ppm or less while background values at an
industrial site or in this case gasoline station would be 50 to 100 ppm
VAPOR SCREENING EQUIPMENT
The Porta-FID utilizes the principle of hydrogen flame ionization for detection and
measurement of total flame-ionizable vapors TFVs The instrument measures organic
vapor concentration by producing response to an unknown sample which can be related
to gas of knqwn composition to which the instrument has previously been calibrated
During normal survey mode operation continuous sample is drawn into the probe and
transmitted to the detector chamber by an internal pumping system
The sample stream is metered and passed through particle filters before reaching the
detector chamber Inside the detector chamber the sample is exposed to hydrogen flame
which ionizes the organic vapors When most organic vapors burn they leave positively
charged carbon-containing ions An electric field drives the ions to collecting electrode
As the positive ions are collected current corresponding to the collection rate is
generated This current is measured with linear electrometer preamplifier which has an
output signal proportional to the ionization current signal conditioning amplifier is used
to amplify the signal from the preamp and to condition it for subsequent meter or external
recorder display The display is an integral part of the Probe/Readout Assembly and has
2700 scale deflection
In general the hydrogen flame ionization detector is more sensitive for hydrocarbons than
any other class of organic compounds The response of the Porta-FID varies from
compound to compound but gives repeatable results with all types of hydrocarbons i.e
saturated hydrocarbons alkanes unsaturated hydrocarbons alkenes and alkynes and
aromatic hydrocarbons

ATEC REPORT NUMBER 21-17060

Mr K.C Pocius

South Bend IN 46601
Re Groundwater Monitoring Program
Lot One
Studebaker Corridor
Former Avanti Plant Site
South Bend Indiana
ATEC Project Number 21-17060
Dear Mr Pocius
ATEC Environmental Consultants ATEC has performed second round of sampling and testing
groundwater from four monitoring wells located at the above-referenced facility This work was
recommended based on findings made during the initial Phase II environmental Site assessment of this
property Upon approval from the client to continue this project ATEC proceeded
On February 21 1991 ATEC persoimel collected groundwater samples from four monitoring wells
at this site Before obtaining the samples each well was purged of minimum of three well volumes
to ensure representative groundwater sample Teflon bailer with polypropylene rope was utilized for
purging and the collection of the samples Between monitoring well samples the bailer was
decontaminated with an on-site tap water and Premier detergent wash tap water rinse followed by
triple distilled water rin.se The groundwater samples collected were analized for VOCs All four
groundwater samples were collected preserved and transported to the ATEC laboratory following
appropriate chain-of-custody procedures
On November 29 1990 the four monitoring wells were surveyed The top of the casing of each well
was surveyed into an arbitrary benchmark with an assigned elevation of 100.0 ft Groundwater elevations
were also collected on February 21 1991 using Solinist water level indicator were used in conjunction
with the survey data to verify water table elevations
Groundwater depth in the monitoring wells ranged from 24.19 ft to 22.75 ft below ground surface Based
on calculations of gr9undwater elevations using these recent groundwater depths groundwater flow
direction to the northeast is confirmed by this data
Findings
The second round of groundwater analyses are shown in Table along with the first round of analyses

All reaultn reported in parts per billion ppb
This is nqaisalent to micrograms per liter mg/L in waler
Based on the groundwater test results from the second round of sampling downgradient well
MW-2 remains the only well tested which showed concentrations of Volatile Compounds
above the maximUm levels established by the EPA for Contaminant Levels MCLs for
drinking water The groundwater sample collected from MW-2 shows Tetrachloroethene
PCE at the MCL for this compound and vinyl chloride above the MCL Vinyl chloride was
not shown in the first round of testing at this welt location Volatile constituents were also
detected in downgradient locations MW-i and MW-3 however concentrations are below
MCLS for drinking water
Also test results from the second round of sampling confirm the presence of PCE in
upgradient well MW-4
Conclusions
Analytical results from both rounds of groundwater samples collected show similar results
regarding the presence of low concentrations of volatile constituents In each case
monitoring well location MW-2 revealed concentrations of volatile compounds above the
MCLs for drinking water for certain contaminants Verification of groundwater flow
direction indicate this well is at downgradient location with respect to Lot One
ATEC recommends that this information be provided to Indiana Department of
Environmental Management IDEM due to the Avanti site being listed as CERCUS site
by the IDEM and the confirmed presence of low concentrations of contamination in the
groundwater ATECs recommendation to the IDEM is to perform an initial risk assessment
to determine possible impact of groundwater users in the area The groundwater sources
used as drinking water supplies may or may not be hydrogeologically interconnected with
the aquifer sampled through these monitoring wells Demonstration of low possible impact
of downgradient receptors and further verification of possible off-site sources may act to
decrease concerns that this site could be adversely affecting drinking water supplies

Dear Mr Stokes
Enclosed are the results of the Organic Analyses for the four water
samples which were submitted to the ATEC Environmental/Analytical
Testing Division on February 22 1991 on behalf of the City of South
Bend The volatile samples were analyzed on Finnigan 1020 OWA
GC/MS/DS system complete with Superincos Software via U.S EPA
Method 624 for Purgeable Organic Compounds Prior to analysis the
system was tuned against Bromofluorobenzene and calibrated with the
appropriate standard
