EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction s
A Remedial Investigation (Rl) was performed at the Drake Chemical Site tocharacterize the types and extent of contamination. This report presents thefindings of the Remedial Investigation (Phase I) pertaining to the leachate streamwhich flows through Castanea Township Park, the park itself, and the southernportion of the site where the leachate lagoon and canal lagoon are located.Another report will follow which will present the findings of all tasks performedduring the Remedial Investigation.
The Site
The Drake Chemical Site is located in Lock Haven, Clinton County, Pennsylvania.The eight-acre site, now inactive, contains six major buildings including formeroffices, production facilities, and a wastewater treatment building. Also locatedon site, are two lined wastewater treatment lagoons, an unlined lagoon (leachatelagoon) from which a leachate stream originates, a second small unlined lagoon(canal lagoon), and an unlined sludge lagoon. Chemical sludge covers much of theopen area on site and was detected at depths as deep as 20 feet below the groundsurface. Drums and bulk waste may also be buried at the site. Construction debrisis strewn about the site.
Adjacent to the site is the American Color and Chemical Company. A largeapartment complex, a large shopping center, and Castanea Township Park arelocated within 1/4 mile of the site. Bald Eagle Creek is located less than 1/2 milesouth of the site, and the West Branch of the Susquehanna River is locatedapproximately 3/4 mile north of the site. The leachate stream originates at theleachate lagoon and flows through Castanea Township Park to Bald Eagle Creek.

The Drake Chemical Company was involved for many years in the manufacture ofsmall batches of specialty intermediate chemicals for producers of dyes,pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, herbicides, and pesticides. The organic compound2,3,6-trichlorophenylacetic acid (Fenac), used as a herbicide, was manufactured atthe plant and is a major site contaminant.
Objectives and Approach
The objectives of the Phase I Remedial Investigation Report are to define thegeologic and hydrogeologic Conditions at and in the vicinity of the ieachate stream,characterize soil and groundwater contamination in the vicinity of the leachatestream, characterize contamination of surface waters, sediments, and aquatic lifein the leachate stream and off site surface water bodies, and present the results ofa terrestrial ecology survey.
To meet these objectives, a subsurface investigation, including exploratory boringsand monitoring well installation, was conducted. Environmental sampling of soils,surface water, sediment, and groundwater was peformed. An aquatic survey andterrestrial ecology survey were also performed.
Results of Investigation
Chemical contamination was found in various media in the vicinity of the leachatestream, including groundwater, soils, surface water and sediment. A wide range oforganic and inorganic chemicals were detected in both onsite and off sitemonitoring wells. Data indicate that contamination is highest near the site and atshallow depths. Groundwater may discharge into the stream during periods of highgroundwater levels when the surface of the water table intersects the leachatestream bed. Otherwise, the groundwater flows toward the east to northeast
In soil and sediment samples, Fenac was found to be a good indicator ofcontamination. Where Fenac concentrations were elevated, other chemicalconcentrations were elevated. The opposite also appears to be true. The sampling

of soil and sediment in and around the leachate stream was meant only to confirmand supplement results from an extensive sampling program conducted by EPA in1982. The highest concentrations of soil and sediment contamination were found inthe leachate lagoon and the leachate system channel. Some Fenac contaminationwas detected in the sediment in Bald Eagle Creek downstream from the leachatestream. The leachate lagoon on site contained both organic and inorganiccontamination.
Results of fish tissue analyses and off site surface water analyses indicate thatthere is presently little impact of leachate contamination on aquatic life and waterquality in Bald Eagle Creek. The greatest risk of exposure, although relatively low,is posed by direct contact with compounds in the leachate stream area.

1.1 Site History and Description ,
The Drake Chemical Site is located in Lock Haven, Clinton County, Pennsylvaniaas shown on Figure 1-1. The eight-acre site, now inactive, contains six majorbuildings including former offices, production facilities, and a wastewatertreatment building. Also located on site, are two lined wastewater treatmentlagoons, an unlined lagoon (leachate lagoon) from which a leachate streamoriginates, a second small unlined lagoon (canal lagoon), and an unlined sludgelagoon. Chemical sludge covers much of the open area on site and was detected atdepths as deep as 20 feet below the ground surface. Drums and bulk waste mayalso be buried at the site. Construction debris is strewn about the site.
Adjacent to the site is the American Color and Chemical Company. A largeapartment complex, a large shopping center, and Castanea Township Park arelocated within 1/4 mile of the site. Bald Eagle Creek is located less than 1/2 milesouth of the site, and the West Branch of the Susquehanna River is locatedapproximately 3/4 mile north of the site. The leachate stream originates at theleachate lagoon and flows through Castanea Township Park to Bald Eagle Creek.
Drake Chemical, Inc., purchased the site in 1962. Site use before 1962 is notcompletely known. Tanks, buildings, and a lagoon were located on the site between1951 and 1959. By 1963, there was further development of the site as a lagoonarea. Nearly the entire site appeared as standing water on aerial photographstaken in 1963. Also, a new building was present along with some scattered debris.
The early production history at Drake Chemical, Inc. is unclear, but the site hadbeen involved for many years in the manufacture of small batches of specialtyintermediate chemicals for producers of dyes, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics,herbicides, and pesticides. The organic compound 2,3,6-trichlorophenylacetic acid

(Fenac*), used as a herbicide, was manufactured at the plant and is a major sitecontaminant.
Drake Chemical, Inc. was cited several times between 1973 and 1982 for violationsof environmental and health and safety regulations. CA
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), began emergencyclean-up activities at the site on February 28, 1982, after Drake Chemical, Inc.,failed to respond to a request for voluntary cleanup. During the emergency clean-up, drums, sludges, and liquids from process and storage tanks were removed fromthe site. The clean-up was completed on April 21, 1982. The EnvironmentalResponse Team (ERT) of EPA performed an Extent of Contamination Study inMarch, 1982 which focused on the area around the leachate stream.
In August 1982, the EPA requested a remedial action study of the Drake ChemicalSite. Activities included preparation of a Remedial Action Master Plan (RAMP) byRoy F. Weston (1/83), a Work Plan for a Remedial Investigation and FeasibilityStudy by the Remedial Planning Office of NUS Corporation (5/83), and aToxicological Impact Assessment by the Region III Field Investigation Team (FIT)of NUS Corporation (9/83).
1.2 Scope and Purpose
This report (Phase I) presents the findings of the Remedial Investigation performedby NUS in areas near the leachate stream. These areas include the leachatestream which flows through Castanea Township Park, the park itself, the southernportion of the site where the leachate lagoon and canal lagoon are located, and thearea of the site which is north of the leachate lagoon and south of the unlinedsludge lagoon. Another report (Phase II) will follow which will present the findingsof all tasks performed during the Remedial Investigation.

The objectives of this Phase I Remedial Investigation Report are as follows:
• Define geologic conditions, including soil type and depth
• Define the geologic framework of the portions of the site covered by thisreport
'CRi• Define the hydrogeologic conditions at and in the vicinity of the leachate x(
stream
• Characterize soil contamination in the vicinity of the leachate stream
• Characterize the contamination of groundwater in the vicinity of theleachate stream
• Characterize the contamination of surface waters, sediments, and aquaticlife in the vicinity of the leachate stream
• Present the results of a terrestrial ecology survey performed in thevicinity of the leachate stream.
Site remedial investigation activities were scheduled to allow the feasibility studyfor the leachate stream to commence before the feasibility study for the rest ofthe site, hence the need for this Phase I Remedial Investigation Report. This "fast-track" approach will allow remedial actions relating to the leachate stream toproceed as quickly as possible.

2.0 DESCRIPTION OF INVESTIGATION
2.1 Subsurface Investigation'fcfciO
2,1.1 Introduction C"
2.1.1.1 Objectives
The subsurface investigation verified and expanded the existing limited geologic,hydrogeologic, and soil data base in the vicinity of the Drake Chemical Site. Theprimary objectives of the investigation were to define the geologic framework,hydrogeologic regime, groundwater and soil quality, and the sources, extent andrate of migration of contamination in the vicinity of the site.
2.1.1.2 Scope of Report
The information contained in this section focuses upon the leachate lagoon areaand leachate stream. However, hydrogeologic information is provided for theentire site study area to present a complete data base. A detailed report on themain site is contained under a separate cover.
2.1.1.3 Scope of Investigation
The objectives of the investigation were achieved through the implementation of asoil boring and groundwater monitoring program. The content of the program isgenerally summarized below:
• 26 shallow hand augered borings were done to define the volume, extentand characteristics of onsite waste. The borings also characterized onsite and offsite soils, shallow geology, and shallow hydrogeology.

• 14 monitoring wells constructed of 2 inch PVC pipe were installed alongthe leachate stream, onsite in the old canal bed, and on American Colorand Chemical property. r _^
.(r -*• 9 offsite monitoring wells constructed of 4 inch PVC pipe were installed.
• 3 deep exploratory boreholes were installed to define local geology andidentify deep groundwater quality. Two of the borings penetrated bedrockand were converted into open borehole monitoring wells. The other boringwas converted to a screened PVC monitoring well.
• 6 multi-level gas driven sampler systems were installed around theperimeter of the site to obtain vertical head and contaminant distributioninformation.
• 9 shallow observation driven well points, constructed of 2 inch stainlesssteel pipe, were installed into the leachate stream bed, on the perimeterof the pond at the southern end of the site, and offsite.
The locations of the monitoring wells and borings are shown in Figures 3-1.Monitoring well information is contained in Table 3-1. Observation well pointinformation is contained in Table 3-2.
2.1.2 Drilling Program
2.1.2.1 Equipment
The drilling program was conducted from August 28 to September 30, 1983. Thedrilling subcontractor was Empire Soils Investigations, Inc. based in Orchard Park,New York. Empire mobilized two drilling rigs, CME 75 and Acker ADII, toimplement the program. The drilling rig used at each borehole is identified on theindividual boring logs attached in Appendix A. All drilling activities wereconducted under the direct supervision of a NUS geologist. The use of grease or

DRAFT
oil on the drill rods or augers was minimized and all quality control measures wereimplemented during drilling to avoid any cross contamination of formationsencountered. r
0?Shallow soil samples were obtained by NUS personnel with a 3-1/4" O.D. handxbucket auger in soils. A General Model 440 power auger was used to advance theboring in areas of high resistance.
2 A 22 Decontamination
A decontamination area was designated on the site. A high-pressure sprayer wasused for all decontamination activities. The drilling rigs were completely washedand rinsed prior to the beginning of the drilling program. After completion of eachboring the equipment used was decontaminated with detergent and rinse waterusing the high pressure sprayer. All decontamination water was collected andstored on site in labeled drums.
At each drilling site, a decontamination area was set up for personnel and lightequipment decontamination. All decontamination water, protective clothing, andsolids were drummed at each hole, labeled, and moved on site.
The split spoon sampler was decontaminated as described in Section 2.3.3, whichdescribes sampling methodology.
2.1.3 Monitoring Well Installation
2.1.3.1 PVC Monitoring Wells
PVC monitoring wells were installed using 6-1/4 inch ID hollow stem augers in mostcases. In the installation of three of the 2 inch PVC wells, 3-3/4 inch ID hollowstem augers were used. A center plug was used inside the bottom of the auger toprevent formation materials from entering the auger. The procedure to advancethe boring consisted of first advancing the auger to the sample depth. The center

DRAFT
plug was then removed from inside the augers. A split barrel sampler and samplerod string were inserted inside the auger. The sample was then taken via aStandard Penetration Test (using a 140 Ib. weight dropped a distance of 30 inches)and blow counts recorded. The sample rods were then removed. The sample washandled as described in Section 2.3.3. The center plug was reinserted afterobtaining water level information, then the augers were advanced to the nextsampling point or target depth and the process repeated. .\''
Once at the target depth, the center plug was removed and the borehole wassounded to determine the depth of the boring and if sand was running into theaugers under hydrostatic pressure. The PVC monitoring well was then assembled inthe borehole using flush-jointed PVC casing. PVC machine slotted pipe with 10 slotsize openings (.01 inch) was used as the monitoring well screen. A bottom plug wassecured to the bottom of the screen. All PVC materials were decontaminated andhandled with clean gloves. Clean tarps were used around the drilling area and onthe truck to eliminate contact of the PVC with contaminated materials. The topof the PVC casing was covered to prevent entry of foreign materials into the well.Clean, washed, medium-to-coarse-grained, well-sorted, quartz sand was poured inthe annulus between the PVC pipe and auger. The annulus was continuouslysounded to determine the depth of the sand. The augers were slowly pulled up asthe sand was placed in the annulus. Once the artificial sand pack reached the topof the selected monitoring interval, there was approximately a 10 minute wait forthe sand to settle. Additional sand was added to bring the sand level back up to theselected depth.
Bentonite pellets were slowly poured down the annulus between the casing and theborehole wall above the artificial sand pack. The augers were slowly removed asthe bentonite pellets were introduced. The hole was continuously sounded todetermine the depth and thickness of the bentonite seal. The thickness of thebentonite seal ranged from 2 to 5 feet in the boreholes, depending on whatthickness was necessary to adequately seal off the formation to be monitored fromoverlying formations. After the bentonite seal had set, a cement bentonite groutwas pumped into the hole using a tremie pipe until undiluted grout flowed at the

surface. The remaining augers were then removed. A protective steel casing withlocking cap was placed around each well to prevent damage to the well. A cementcollar was placed around the protective casing to prevent surface water infiltrationalong the annulus. Complete construction details of all monitoring wells rare---documented in Appendix A. r
All PVC wells were developed using an air compressor to airlift the groundwaterout of the well until the discharge water was silt free. All development water wascollected and properly disposed of.
2.1.3.2 Exploratory Borings
Exploratory borings MW-E1 and MW-E2 were advanced in unconsolidated materialusing hollow stem auger with split-barrel sampling. The augers were advanced atleast 5 feet in shale, until refusal. A four inch PVC pipe was set into the boringand the annulus between the pipe and borehole was pressure grouted to preventcross contamination and/or fluid migration into the shale from the upperformations. The grout was allowed to set for about 72 hours. The bedrock wasthen cored using a conventional corebarrel and NX size drill bit. Percent recoveryand Rock Quality Designation (RQD) are recorded on the boring logs in Appendix A.The boring was developed using an air compressor to airlift the water. Pneumaticpacker pressure tests were performed on both boreholes. Exploratory boring MW-E3 was completed the same as the PVC monitoring wells.
2.1.3.3 Gas Driven Multi-Level Samplers
The gas-driven multi-level samplers were installed using an Acker ADII drilling rig.Temporary 4 inch steel casing was driven at 5 foot intervals and cuttings washedout by a 3-5/8 inch tri-cone roller bit. Recirculation water was collected andchanged every 5 feet to prevent the spread of contamination. Split barrel sampleswere obtained at selected intervals where lithologic samples were not availablefrom adjacent exploratory borings.

DRAFT
The temporary casing was advanced to refusal and backfilled with cleanmedium-to-coarse, well sorted, quartz sand to the desired sample point. ABARCAD gas driven sampler was then placed into the boring and the sand filterwas extended to the top of the designed communication interval. The sand wasallowed to settle and a bentonite pellet seal was placed above the sand, to the next r _„_.„OK'.(•>'desired communication interval. The sequence was repeated for the upper twoBARCAD gas-driven samplers. A shallow 1 inch PVC well was placed above theBARCAD's to indicate perched water during periods of heavy precipitation and inspring. Construction details of each multi-level sampler system is presented inAppendix A.
The multi-level gas driven sampler system allows the approximation of verticalhead distributions and is capable of obtaining discrete vertical groundwater qualityinformation. Nitrogen gas is introduced from a tank into the outer one-half or oneinch tubing through the use of a sampling head. This gas pressure closes the checkvalve in the sampler unit and forces water in the BARCAD up to the surfacethrough a 3/16 inch nylon inner tubing. Gas pressure is relieved and the BARCADis allowed to recharge, then the sampling process is repeated until a sufficientamount of water has been collected for the analyses required.
Vertical head distribution information was obtained in the multi-level samplers byinserting a capillary tube between the 3/16 inch inner and one-half inch or one inchouter tubing. First, a loop was made at the surface end of the capillary tube and asmall amount of water was introduced into the loop. The other end of the capillarytubing was inserted between the inner and outer sampler tubes. When groundwaterwas encountered, the small amount of water within the loop at the surface endmoved. Comparisons between water levels obtained from the multi-level samplersand cluster wells are accurate within a foot.
2.1.3.4 Observation Well Points
A series of eight driven well points were installed within the bed of the leachatestream and on the perimeter of the pond on the south end of the site. Borings were

initiated with pick and shovel followed by the use of a post hole digger and handauger. Two inch diameter well points with 1.5 foot long stainless steel JohnsonRedhead, .01 inch slot size screens, were set into the hand auger boring and driveninto the ground with a sledge hammer. Cement was placed around the standpipe toprevent infiltration of surface water into the borehole. The well points weredeveloped by the use of a surge block. The leachate stream was dry during theinstallation of the well points. Depths of the well points and groundwaterinformation are listed in Table 3-2.
2.1.4 Waste Collection and Handling
All drilling cuttings, drilling return fluid, and development water was collected,drummed, and transported on site for storage. All drums were labeled as to theircontents and origin. A total of 64 drums were stored onsite by the main plantoffice.
2.1.5 Onsite Buried Pipeline Locations
Buried pipelines in the vicinity of the site were located before drilling operationsbegan. Pipelines were located and staked by utility or municipal officials. Buriedplant pipe lines were identified from plant plan maps obtained from the LockHaven city engineer. Figure 2-1 identifies lines in the vicinity of the site.
Buried lines in gravel beds may act as a conduit for groundwater flow or as apossible source of contamination. Pipeline locations are a useful reference forfuture site remedial activity.
23. Monitoring Well Sampling
Groundwater samples were collected to determine the character and extent ofgroundwater contamination beneath the site and in the vicinity of the site. Thisreport is concerned with groundwater quality in the vicinity of the leachatestream.
2-7
RR3Q0358
DRAFT
BARCAD samplers were installed in selected monitoring wells to provide apermanent sampling system at several fixed levels in the borehole. This set ofsamples was used to establish and monitor vertical water quality parameterdistributions. Qf
Before any monitoring well was sampled, a photoionization detector (PID) was usedfor measuring air quality in and around the well to determine if respiratoryprotection was required. The well water level was then determined and a minimumof 5 well casing volumes were purged from the well to assure a representativegroundwater sample. All wells were allowed to recharge to the initial water levelbefore a sample was collected. If any well did not recharge within 24 hours, it wasnoted in the field logs, and a sample was collected if there was a sufficient volumeof water to collect a representative sample.
Monitoring wells not equipped with BARCAD samplers were sampled by using asuction pump or PVC bailer. Sampling equipment was thoroughly cleaned after useto eliminate cross-contamination of the samples.
Monitoring wells equipped with BARCAD samplers were sampled by connecting thesampler to a tank of compressed nitrogen. The gas pressure forced water from theappropriate level so that a sample could be collected.
After groundwater samples were collected, they were shipped to a laboratory foranalysis. All chain-of-custody; sample handling, packaging, preservation, andshipping; recordkeeping; and documentation requirements were performed inaccordance with the Quality Assurance Plan and the Sampling Plan.
A total of 14 groundwater samples, including a duplicate, were collected in thevicinity of the leachate stream. Monitoring well locations are shown on Figure 3-1.Onsite monitoring wells included M1, MS, M6, and M7. Offsite monitoring wellsincluded M10, Mil A, M11B, M12A, M13, and M14. All monitoring wells, exceptthose equipped with BARCAD samplers, were sampled on October 15, 1983.

Monitoring wells equipped with BARCAD samplers were sampled on October 28,1983.
The results of monitoring well sampling are presented in Section 3.2 of this report.
Soil Sampling
Subsurface and surface soil samples were collected during drilling operations andby taking auger samples at various locations.
2.3.1 Shallow Auger Borings
The shallow soil borings were advanced with the use of a hand bucket auger or two-man power auger. The power auger was used to advance boreholes that proved tobe impenetrable with the bucket auger and to quicken the pace of drilling. Thepower auger was used on 14 of the 26 borings. When the sampling interval wasreached, the power auger was withdrawn from the boring and the bucket auger wasused to obtain the sample.
A few of the deeper power auger borings onsite extended below the water table,which was commonly found 12 to 15 feet below ground surface. A bentonite sealwas placed in these borings at appropriate depths to prevent downwardcontaminant migration through the borings into the underlying saturatedformations penetrated. However, it was observed during drilling of these holesthat the water and soil encountered in the aquifer was commonly discolored,odorous, and often times measurable with an HNU at significant to high levels.Analytical data of samples taken from these depths also have shown this zone to becontaminated.
The area of the site south of the lined lagoons is composed of mixed fill containingbricks, construction material, wooden boards, and other miscellaneous debris. Forthe most part, the soils were found to be impenetrable with either the bucket orthe power auger. Soil and analytical samples for this area were obtained during the

DRAFT
groundwater monitoring program using a drill rig. Also, the area adjacent to thebuildings on site was covered with a thick layer of asphalt which was impenetrablewith the power auger. Sample borings in these areas were located as close aspossible to the buildings where asphalt was not present.
Decontamination v -
Two bucket augers were utilized during the program so that one could bedecontaminated while the other was in use. The bucket auger used to take theanalytical sample was decontaminated prior to each sampling. Power auger andbucket auger extensions were decontaminated after each hole and at the end ofeach day.
Decontamination consisted of a high pressure spray of soapy water and a rinsespray of water. The source of the water was a city fire hydrant located justoutside the fence line of the Drake Chemical Site. Brushes were used to scrub allsampling residue off the augers and extensions.
23.2 Off Site Surface Soils
In addition to the borings, surface soil samples were obtained from offsite locationsin the Castanea Township Park and the Hammermill Ballfield areas to determinethe presence of offsite contamination. These samplers were taken with a cleansmall shovel or trowel.
Decontamination
The trowel and small shovel used to collect the samples were rinsed clean withwater between each sample. Any soil adhering to these tools was scrubbed off withB brush. The source of the water was the fire hydrant adjacent to the DrakeChemical Site.

2.3.3 Split Barrel Samples
Split barrel samples were obtained at each drilling location. The 18 inch samplerwas advanced via the Standard Penetration Test through the hollow stem auger ortemporary driven casing to obtain a sample. Blow counts were recorded fqr eachsample.
The split barrel sampler was opened on a clean tarp for visual examination of thesample. The sample was lithologically logged and a representative sampleretained. Soil samples for chemical analysis were obtained by shaving the samplewith a clean knife and using only the center of the sample for the sample. Shavingthe samples was done to remove the part of the sample that was in contact withthe split barrel sampler, to avoid picking up any residual contamination from thesampler that may have been left by previous soil samples. Similar samples foranalyses were obtained for analysis by splitting a sample vertically. Thisminimized the variation in sample results caused by the change of concentrationwith depth as each sample was thus representative of the entire sampling interval.The lithologic descriptions of the samples are presented on the boring logs .inAppendix A.
The split-barrel sampler, knife, and other tools in contact with the sample weredecontaminated using a two-stage wash with soap and water and clean rinse water.The re-assembled split-spoon sampler was placed on a clean tarp and handled in amanner that minimized contamination.

2.4 Surface Water and Sediment Sampling
( S u r f a c e water and sediment samples were collected to determine the character andextent of contamination in onsite and offsite areas. This report is concerned withsamples collected in the vicinity of the leachate stream, namely the leachate andcanal lagoons, the leachate stream itself, Bald Eagle Creek, and the West Branchof the Susquehanna River. Bald Eagle Creek and the West Branch of theSusquehanna River were sampled during the Aquatic Survey which is discussed laterin this report.
All samples were collected by using a pond (or dip) sampler or a bucket. Onsitesamples were composite samples, while the offsite samples were grab samples.Composite samples were formed by taking equal amounts of sample from threeseparate locations and combining them. Sampling equipment was thoroughlycleaned after each use to eliminate cross-contamination of the samples.
After surface water and sediment samples were collected, they were shipped to alaboratory for chemical analysis. All chain-of-custody; sample handling,packaging, preservation, and shipping; recordkeeping; and documentationrequirements were performed in accordance with the Quality Assurance Plan andthe Sampling Plan.

2.5 Aquatic Survey
Few ecological or populational studies of Bald Eagle Creek have been performed,with the exception of benthic macroinvertebrate studies conducted for theHammermill Paper Company and a project completed by Lock Haven State Collegepersonnel. All fish collections made during the latter study were upstream of LockHaven. A list of species is presented in Appendix C for comparison purposes withcurrent collections.
The present study included fish collections for flesh residue analysis, benthicmacroinvertebrate and diatom diversity comparisons, analysis for physical waterparameters for water and surface water and sediment sampling.

The objectives of the aquatic survey were as follows:
• Summarize available literature pertaining to the aquatic biologicalcommunity in the vicinity of the Drake Chemical Site.
• To characterize basic physical chemical parameters present in the studyarea during the survey period October 11-13, 1983. *-• •"' f\t >7^
wC'iecy• To collect multi-species fish samples for subsequent analysis of residue
levels in tissue.
• To evaluate effects of discharges or leachates from the defunct DrakeChemical Company on the benthic diatom and macroinvertebratecommunity structure.
The use of biological organisms to evaluate water quality of aquatic ecosystems isan established technique. While physical chemical surveys reveal water conditionsat the time of sample collection, biological communities are a reflection of thepresent and past stream conditions (Wilhelm, 1967). Benthic macroinvertebrates
' are excellent organisms for evaluating water quality because of their relatively lowmotility long life cycles (generally 3 months - 1 year), representation of diversetrophic levels, and ease of collection.
i Traditionally two techniques, indicator organisms or diversity, have been used to' assess the effect of outside influences on biological communities. The theory,
«central in part to both of these approaches, is that community composition (speciesoccurrence) is the result of an interaction of biotic and abiotic components presentin the environment. Different categories of benthic organisms, even within thesame family or even genus, are generally physiologically unique and will responddifferently to changes in water quality, resulting in characteristic communitystructures (Resh and Unzicker, 1975 and Milbrink, 1973).
2-18
RR300369
DRAFT
The indicator organism approach attempts to categorize groups of organismsaccording the their ability to withstand changes in water quality. The futility ofapplying pollution tolerance classification on entire groups of organisms at thegenus level (or higher taxonomic levels) is well documented in the scientificliterature (Resh and Unzicker, 1975). Unfortunately, taxonomy of benthicmacroinvertebrates occurring in North America is not developed sufficiently toidentify specimens to the species level. In addition, water quality requirementsand tolerances for various classes of pollutants are not available for most speciesof aquatic invertebrates. As a result, the use of indicator organisms to assesswater quality in short-term or cursory surveys, where invertebrate groups are 'identified to a genus or higher classification level, is tenuous.
Evaluation of water quality using diversity, number of species, and individuals hasbecome an important tool to the aquatic biologist. The use of diversity is based onthe concept that under similar water quality conditions the same number ofspecies, not necessarily the same species, will occur at any two sites (Patrick,1949; Wilhm, 1967). Unstressed biotic communities typically are characterized bythe presence of a few species with many individuals and many species with a fewindividuals. Degradation of water quality produces limiting factors that causedetectable changes in community structure. A number of mathematical formulashave been developed to summarize and express diversity (Perkins, 1983). Diversityvalues calculated using diversity indices are dependent in part on the taxonomiclevel of benthic organisms that are assigned by the investigator. Therefore,caution should be exercised when evaluating calculated diversities so that the samelevel of taxonomy is used for the values being compared.

2.5.3.1 Fish Collection
Fish collections, for subsequent flesh tissue analyses, were initiated onOctober 10, 1983. Because the effectiveness of fishing gear varies with the habitatsampled and the fish species present, a variety of fishing gear was used to ensurethat several fish species and adequate tissue samples were obtained. Fishingmethods included gill nets, hoop nets, electroflshing, and forage fish traps.
At each fish station, one 6 panel, experimental gill net with mesh sizes of 0.5, 1.0,2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 square inches, was set diagonally to the shore with the smallestmesh inshore. The net extended to approximately mid-channel at the Bald EagleCreek stations. One 4-foot baited hoop net with 0.25 in. mesh and a 50-foot lead
' was set for each station. These nets were positioned with the opening facingdownstream. Forage fish traps (0.25 in. mesh) were also baited and placed at eachstation. All nets and traps were set on October 10, 1983. Those at Stations 1001,
: 1003, 1004, and 1007 were pulled immediately after electroflshing on October 11,. 1983, for a soak time of approximately 24 hours. Those at Station 1008 were
retrieved on October 12, 1983.
Electrofishing gear consisted of. a backpack shocker mounted in an 8-foot pram.Two personnel manned the shocking probes (220 AC voltage with 1 to 2 amps was
! used). Sampling proceeded upstream for a period of 10 minutes. In addition,
2-21
DRAFT
qualitative samples of benthic fish species were collected from riffle habitats usinga 0.25 inch mesh kick sieve.
After being collected, all fish to be used for flesh analyses were immediatelycounted and placed on ice in containers labeled for each station. All remainingspecimens (forage fish) were preserved with 10 percent formalin and stored forsubsequent identification and processing.

Fish collected for flesh analyses were assigned station and log numbers and wereprocessed in the following manner. Specimens were identified, measured for totallength (mm), and individually weighed to the nearest gram using a calibratedChattilon autopsy balance. A sample of fish scales from each specimen wasremoved from the left side immediately below the anterior half of the dorsal fin.Scale samples were placed in labeled envelopes for subsequent laboratory analysisof age and growth.
Each specimen was then filleted and skinned, taking care to retain only edibleflesh, free of internal organs, bone, and skin. Prior to their use and between eachspecimen, filleting utensils were washed in hot, detergent water and rinsed withdistilled water. Surfaces in contact with the fish or flesh sample were coveredwith a clean sheet of aluminum foil which was replaced between specimens.
Flesh samples were placed in two, individually tied, labeled plastic bags and againplaced on ice. Upon completion of filleting all specimens, flesh samples wereimmediately packaged, deep frozen, and transferred to the custody of thecontracting agent.
2.5.3.3 Age Determination

2.5.4 Benthic Macroinvertebratef^2.5.4.1 Benthic Macroinvertebrate Collection .'• .————————————————————— ^-'--
Macroinvertebrates were collected with a D-frame net (30 cm wide x 25 cm high)using equal time and effort at each site (Frost, et. al., 1971, Benfield et. al., 1974).The technique involved placing the net against the stream bottom and thoroughlydisturbing the substrate directly upstream by kicking. Macroinvertebratesdislodged from the substrate are carried into the net by water current. A singlesample was constituted by pooling two subsamples collected over a period of 1minute each from the same area.
Kicknet sampling of macroinvertebrates has been a useful and effective method infield monitoring since 1958. The use of kicknets as employed in this project issupported by scientific literature and is accepted for use by regulatory agencies.According to Frost, et. al. (1971), kicknet samples from similar habitats provideconsistent information, and samples collected by different people showed littlevariation when habitats were similar. Frost, et. al. (1971) noted that 87 percent ofall benthic taxa were collected with two kicknet samples. The capture rate did notreach 100 percent until 10 samples had been collected.
The high efficiency of capture with kicknet samples found by Frost, et. al. (1971)was supported by the work of Crossman and Cairns (1974). They compared bottomand surface artificial substrate samplers with bottom (kick) net and Surbersampling results. When compared to the artificial substrate sampler, kicknetsampling resulted in the lowest variability of diversity indices. Pollard and Kinney(1979), in an U.S. EPA document, also compared the kicknet technique to othersampling methods. They found that the kicknet method collected more taxa and

individuals per sample with equivalent or lower variability than the Surber samplerand the Portable Invertebrate Box Sampler. In addition the Fisheries Section,.Game and Fish Division, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, is usingkicknet sampling in its evaluation of important river systems within the WaltonDistrict of the East Central Region. The technique is being used to maximizegeneration of macroinvertebrate baseline data in a short period of time (Hess,1979).
Samples were fixed with 10 percent formalin and returned to the laboratory wherethe macroinvertebrates were separated from the substrate, sorted, identified, andcounted.
Samples were analyzed individually for number of taxa and number of individualsper taxon. Community analyses on either individual or pooled samples includedcommunity diversity (Shannon-Weiner) index, percent composition by taxa, andpercent similarity index.
2.5.4.2 Benthic Invertebrate Sample Stations
Five sampling areas on Bald Eagle Creek and three sites in the Susquehanna Riverwere selected for study. Descriptions and locations of all sampling stations arepresented in Table 2-1 and Figure 2-4. Stations 1002 and 1001, upstream of DrakeChemical outfall, function as reference stations. Stations 1003 through 1007,downstream of the Drake outfall, have the potential of being affected by anydischarge from the site. Three sampling stations in the Susquehanna River weresampled to evaluate the influences that Bald Eagle Creek and/or the leachatestream may have on the rivers' benthic community. Station 1008, located in theWest Branch of the Susquehanna River upstream of its confluence with Bald EagleCreek, serves as a reference station for the West Branch of the Susquehanna River.
At each sampling station macroinvertebrates were collected in transect 1/4 and3/4 of the distance across the stream or river, near the north (N) and south (S)

bank, respectively. Sample stations were selected as much as possible to be similarin terms of substrate characteristics, depth, width, and current speed.
2.5.4.3 Benthic Invertebrate Laboratory Analysis O
Preserved samples were stained with rose bengal to aid in the detection ofmacroinvertebrates from substrate and debris. Benthic samples were placed in aNo. 60 U. S. Standard Sieve (250u) and rinsed with tap water to removepreservative and stain. Following this rinse, macroinvertebrates were sorted fromthe sample into major taxonomic groups with the aid of a stereomicroscope. Aftersorting, 70 percent ethanol was used for the preservation of all organisms.
Annelids and chironomidae taken in collections required examination with acompound microscope for identification. These organisms were mounted on glassmicroscope slides with CMC mounting media and dried in an incubator at 40-50°Cfor a minimum of 48 hours. Completed slides were stored for identification.
The majority of the macroinvertebrates collected were identified to at least thegeneric level. Major taxonomic references used for the identification ofinvertebrates are presented in Table 2-2.

Estimates of redundancy were computed as follows:
m Dmax - DDmax - D min
whereDmax « (1/N)[log2N! - Slog2(N/S)!]
Dmin - (1/N)tlog2N! - Iog2 (N-(S-I))!]
The redundancy value is an expression of the dominance of one or more species andis inversely proportional to the number of species (Cairns and Dickson 1971).
These diversity indexes (D and r) respond to changes in community structure. Forexample, when large numbers of individuals and small numbers of taxa are found,as in effected areas of streams receiving organic wastes, a large probability existsthat an individual species observed in a sample belongs to a taxa previouslycollected. Therefore, a considerable repetition of information exists andredundancy (r) is high, whereas information per individual species (D) is low. Cleanwater areas contain smaller numbers of individuals per taxon and large variety oftaxa. Because less repetition of information per individual exists, information perindividual (D) is greater and redundancy (r) lower (Cairns and Dickson 1971).
Information per individual (D) values less than 1 are reported for aquaticcommunities subjected to areas of heavy organic pollution, from 1 to 3 .formoderate pollution, and values greater than 3 in clean water areas. (Wilhm andDorris, 1968).
A community comparison index, percent similarity, was computed to evaluate thesimilarity in species composition between sampling stations. This index isexpressed as:
PSC « 1 00-0.52"] a-b | - Smin (a,b)

where PSC is the percent similarity and a and b are the percentages of a species insamples A and B. This indice qualitatively measures the relative similarity ofspecies composition in two samples. The PSC is only an empirical measure and isnot an estimate of a statistical parameter of the population from which thesamples are drawn. PSC values can range from 0 to 100. A value of 0 indicatesthat the species composition in the two samples is entirely different and a value of100 indicates complete similarity.

2.5.5 Diatom Survey
Samples for qualitative analysis of diatoms were collected from rocks removedfrom each station sampled for macroinvertebrates. Samples from transect stations1001, 1002, 1003 were composited whereas those for transects 1004 through 1008were separated by north and south near shore areas of the stream. One or tworocks from each area were brushed and the resultant suspension was diluted withdistilled water. Burn mounts were prepared by drying an aliquot from each sampleon No. 1, 18 mm2 coverslips which were heated for 3 hours on a hot plate (320°C)and mounted on glass slides with Hyrax. A random point was chosen at the edge ofeach coverslip and a vertical transect was scanned at 1000 X until at least 100diatoms were identified. Counts were converted to percent composition for therelative abundance of each diatom species. Shannon-Weiner and percent similarityindices were calculated using the formulae described for benthicmacroinvertebrates.
2,6 Terrestrial Survey
On October 5 and 6, 1983, a reconnaissance of the Drake Chemical Site and thesurrounding areas was performed. The purpose of the investigation was tocharacterize terrestrial vegetation in the site vicinity.
Manufacturing operations at the site included the production of the herbicideFenac. Fenac is a solid under environmental conditions and exhibits limitedsolubility in water (203 mg/l at 22 °C). In its commonly available form as Fenatrol,
2-28
RR300379
DRAFT
a-17.3 percent aqueous solution of the sodium salt, it is primarily used to provide' control of annual and.perennial broadleaves and grasses in non-crop areas such as
utility rights-of-way. The only crop species which has clearance for use withFenatrol is sugarcane, where it is used to provide pre-emergence, season-longcontrol of weeds such a Johnson grass (Sorghum nalepense). Fenac is also effectiveagainst submerged aquatic weeds when applied prior to flooding. *;
Crop damage thresholds range from 100 to 10,000 micrograms per Kilogram(Ug/Kg). At customary application rates, these concentrations are rare. Fenac ispersistent. At standard agricultural application rates of 4 to 20 Ibs. per acre,herbicide residue would be anticipated for 1-2 years. These application rates areroughly equivalent to soil concentrations of 2,000 to 10,000 (ug/Kg).
Because of Fenac's persistence and the fact that in the past studies, it mirrored thedistribution of other compounds found in the leachate channel sediments, it wasselected as an indication of the extent of contamination within the leachatechannel. Lateral dispersion of the compound away from the leachate channelshould be evidenced by vegetative stress in response to its herbicidal properties. Inaddition, surface erosion from the site may carry Fenac residue onto adjacentareas, again evidenced by vegetative stress. Finally, groundwater seeps, if any,from the site may be identified by vegetative stress induced by Fenac.
The terrestrial vegetation survey is therefore intended to serve as an indicator ofextent of contamination. The presence of stressed vegetation is not a problem in
! and of itself; rather it indicates potential contamination by Fenac and/or othertoxic substances which may have migrated from the site. For the purpose of thesurvey, it was assumed that anomalies in vegetative cover in the vicinity of thesite and leachate channel may be related to the presence of Fenac and/or other
; toxic compounds unless the anomalies could be attributed to physical factors (e.g.,season, soil conditions, competition with other species, etc.).

3.0 RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION
3.1 Site Geology ,fc'
3.1.1 Physiographic Setting v
The Drake Chemical Site is located in the transition zone between the AlleghenyPlateau Province and the Appalachian Mountain section of the Valley and RidgePhysiographic Province. It is situated in an alluvial valley formed by Bald EagleCreek and the Susquehanna River. Regional topography is rugged, with elevationsranging from 530' msl to 2,017' msl. South of the site Bald Eagle Mountain risessteeply from Bald Eagle Creek, while north of the site the land rises moregradually to the steep hills of the Allegheny Plateau.
3.1.2 Stratigraphy
The regional stratigraphic sequence in the area consists of Devonian age shales andlimestones which are underlain by Silurian and Ordivician limestones. Thissequence is cut by stream valleys.
Many shallow holes have been drilled in the area and in the surrounding region.Regional shallow borings were drilled by the Baltimore District U. S. Army Corpsof Engineers, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, LockHaven State College and the Clinton County Housing Authority. These borings aredocumented in the Lock Haven, PA Phase I General Design MemorandumAppendices (Corps of Engineers, 1980). Drilling logs of borings installed by theAmerican Color and Chemical Company are attached in Appendix B.
The lithology of the Drake Site consists of a clayey to sandy silt which increases ingrain size downward to a sand and gravel, then into sandstone fragments. Thesandstone fragments are underlain by a fractured shale. The shale is partiallyreplaced by alluvial materials near Bald Eagle Creek as reflected in the three deepexploratoryborings drilled by NUS, MW-E1 to MW-E3. Boring locations are

presented in Figure 3-1. Lithology in the vicinity of the site is illustrated by crosssections in Figures 3-2 to 3-4. ' _
r
Exploratory boring MW-E1 encountered shale at a depth of 40 feet and wasadvanced 40 feet into the shale. Fractures were predominately low to moderateangle between 40 to 66 feet deep and nearly vertical from 66 to 80 feet deep.Calcite veins were common within the fractures. A detailed description ispresented in the boring log in Appendix A. The fractured shale may be underlain bya fractured limestone (Map, Corps of Engineers, 1980). However, the depth ofcontact is not known. The-fracturing of the bedrock is primarily stress relief fromthe river valley. As the boreholes' drilled were not very deep, the actual totaldepth of fracturing in the river valley was-not determined.
Boring logs and well point information in the vicinity of the leachate lagoonindicate a higher silt content of the subsurface materials near the lagoon than isfound elsewhere in the area. This gives the low hydraulic conductivity results andis also shown by the mounded groundwater table. Along the leachate stream, thebed is composed of a silty clay. The clay content varies along the stream bed.Higher clay contents and low hydraulic conductivities were observed near therailroad tracks in the upper end of the stream and in Castanea Township Park.

The site is located approximately 5 miles southeast of the Snow Shoe Syncline(Taylor, 1977). The regional structure of the southeast limb of the syncline has anaverage strike of N60°E and a dip of 20° to 50°NW. The actual strike and dip of theshale at the site could not be determined.
Several regional joint systems are reported to be prominent. One of the mostpronounced is a NW-SE trending set oriented approximately perpendicular to theregional structural trend (Corps of Engineers, 1980). No major faults are known toexist in the immediate area of Lock Haven.

3.1.4 Subsurface Soils
Onsite soils consist primarily of clayey silt. Construction debris and waste sludgeoverlays the clayey silt on parts of the site.
Offsite natural soils are primarily of Ashton Huntington Association. The soil isusually well drained with moderate permeability and high moisture holdingcapacity. The soils generally tend to coarsen downward into sand at 5 to 15 feet indepth.
3.2 Hvdrogeoloqy
3.2.1 Regional Hydrogeoiogy
The Lock Haven area is in the Susquehanna River Basin. The regional groundwaterflow of the Lock Haven area is controlled primarily by the West Branch of theSusquehanna River and Bald Eagle Creek. The unconfined (water table) shallowaquifer has a direct hydrologic connection with the river system. It is evident fromthe groundwater flow data obtained from Hammermill Paper Company that locallyalong the stream banks the shallow groundwater flow direction is toward thestreams. Thus, Bald Eagle Creek and the West Branch of the Susquehanna River
; are the discharge points for the shallow groundwater. Regionally the groundwaterflow through Lock Haven is east to northeast toward the confluence of Bald EagleCreek and the West Branch of the Susquehanna River.
! Groundwater normally discharges into the nearby streams except during periods of1 high flow and flooding in which case the steams would recharge the aquifer nearI their banks.
The shallow unconfined aquifer in the Lock Haven area consists of alluvial depositsI and the underlying fractured shale bedrock. The fractured bedrock is hydraulically
connected to the overlying sandstone fragments or adjacent alluvial deposits. Thelower limit of the unconfined aquifer is not known. However, a fractured

limestone may exist under the shale which may be hydrologically connected to theshale. The greatest depth of fracturing would occur in the river valley and wouldsubstantially decrease toward the mountains which border the river valley.
'••'•3.2.2 Site Hydrogeology \
The hydrogeology of the site is very complex. Basically, the groundwater regimeat the site consists of saturated alluvial deposits overlying fractured shale bedrock.The bedrock and overlying deposits are hydraulically connected, forming theunconfined aquifer in the area. Monitoring well locations are presented inFigure 3-1. Monitoring well and observation well point information is presented inTables 3-1 and 3-2, respectively.
The unconsolidated alluvial deposits consist of sandy to clayey silt deposits at thesurface grading downward into coarse grained sand and gravel and sandstonefragment deposits with increasing depth. Hydraulic conductivities within theunconsolidated deposits range from 1.4 x 10~5 cm/sec, found in a silty sandencountered at a depth of approximately 15 feet (Monitoring Well M-6), to 8.4 x10 ~3 cm/sec, found in a sand and gravel formation encountered at a depth of 31feet (Monitoring Well M-3). As shown by comparing the screened intervals ofmonitoring wells, given in Table 3-1, with the hydraulic conductivities and screenedformations of the wells, given in Table 3-3, there is a considerable variation inhydraulic conductivities, both vertically and horizontally, within the unconsolidateddeposits. These variations are caused by both formation changes and bygradational changes in the relative percentages of silts, sands, and clays withineach lithologic unit. These horizontal and vertical variations in lithology andhydraulic conductivity make the aquifer a heterogeneous aquifer.
In the southern part of the site, a mounded water table was found, extending acrossthe American Color and Chemical property along a swale which runs perpendicularto the leachate lagoon. This condition is caused by a greater depth of silt in thisarea than is commonly found across the site. This silt has a low horizontal andvertical hydraulic conductivity.

The shale bedrock underlying the unconsolidated deposits beneath the site ishydraulically connected to the overlying sediments as shown by the similarity ofthe water levels measured in the monitoring wells installed into bedrock with waterlevels of monitoring wells installed in the unconsolidated deposits. The hydraulicconductivity of the shale is dependent on and controlled by the degree and depth offracturing, and the orientation of the fractures. Hydraulic conductivities in thebedrock were calculated to be 8.5 x 10~4 cm/sec and 7.0 x 10~4 cm/sec in wells EHand E-2, respectively. ''
vCGroundwater flow direction regionally and across the northern part of theAmerican Color and Chemical Property and the Drake Site is east to northeast,eventually discharging into Bald Eagle Creek or the West Branch of theSusquehanna River. Flow direction in the mounded area varies as shown in theequi-potential map (Figure 3-1). Flow direction in the vicinity of the leachatestream is described in detail later in this section. Although local flow directionswithin the bedrock are controlled by fracture orientation, the overall flowdirection probably parallels the flow direction in the overlying sediments, as theyare hydraulically connected. Water level elevations are presented for theconventional and multi-level samplers in Tables 3-4 and 3-5, respectively. Waterlevels at the American Color and Chemical property are presented in Table 3-6.
Highway 220 and the Jay Street by-pass cut through the study area. The highwaysystem is 30 to 40 feet above the site at certain locations. This acts as anhydraulic barrier during spring and extended periods of precipitation. The highwaymounds water and may seasonally prevent or retard contaminant migration fromthe Drake Site. This is supported by the observed seeps on the west side of thehighway and the groundwater quality observed in MW-M16, 17, and 20 across thehighway from the site. This could be substantiated by addition borings along thehighway. The amount of time during the year which this would act as a barrier isimportant in determining the extent of potential contaminant migration past thehighway.

The old Pennsylvania Canal runs north to south along the American Color andChemical and Drake Site boundary. The canal was reported to be filled in withdebris during operation of Drake. Water supply and sanitary sewer lines surroundedby clay run within the old bed. Interviews with residents and city officials indicatethat the canal was less than 20 feet in depth and was not lined. Monitoring wellsMW-M1 and MW-M8 are located in the old canal and water levels support that thecanal area is hydrologically connected to the unconsolidated aquifer. Sludge wasencountered in both borings as shown on the boring logs in Appendix A. Thehydraulic conductivities of the materials in the canal are generally slightly lowerthan the area surrounding the canal, as shown by comparisons of the estimates ofhydraulic conductivities given in Table 3-3.
Buried pipelines are discussed in Section 2.1.5 and located on Figure 2-1. Pipelinesburied in a gravel bed may act as a conduit for groundwater flow or as a source ofcontamination if leaks develop.
Existing Wells
A water supply inventory was conducted and found no water wells in operation inthe vicinity of Drake. Two abandoned bedrock wells are present on the AmericanColor and Chemical property. One well location, near building 74, had a turbinepump in place while the other had the pump dismantled. The 12-inch diameter wellwith the dismantled pump, in building 36, had a depth of 138 feet. The water levelin the well was observed in May 1983 to be approximately 14.2 feet below surface.The well was reported to have been idle for approximately 20 years. An abandonedcity well, 85 feet deep, is located near an old city garage near East Clinton Street.American Color and Chemical Company has 21 monitoring wells, ranging in depthfrom 12 to 40 feet, located as shown in Figure 3-1.

Hydraulic conductivity testing was conducted on all monitoring wells using a bailtest for wells in unconsolidated material or pneumatic packer pressure tests forbedrock wells. Hydraulic conductivities are summarized in Table 3-3.
Hydraulic gradients and average groundwater velocities were calculated fordifferent areas of the site. A hydraulic gradient of 0.004 in the unconsolidatedmaterials was determined for the northern portion of the site.Downgradient of the site in the vicinity of Highway 220, the gradient is reduced toapproximately 0.002. This is generally comparable to the regional gradient of0.0035. An average regional linear flow velocity range 4 to 16 feet per year wascalculated for the unconsolidated material and 3.5 to 20 ft/yr for the consolidatedmaterial. The influence of the elevated highway may act as a recharge barrier andreduce groundwater flow velocity near the highway. The average flow velocity ofthe perched groundwater would be substantially lower than the average flowvelocity of the rest of the site.
Leachate Stream Hvdrogeology
Physical Characteristics
The leachate stream is approximately 1,620 feet long. It physically extends fromthe base of the railroad track bed near the leachate lagoon at Drake Chemical toBald Eagle Creek. A cross section along the stream is presented in Figure 3-4.This figure shows the soils present and groundwater levels in relation to the streambed.
Stream Hydrology
The leachate stream is an intermittent stream that flows south into Bald EagleCreek from the southern edge of the site. The main source of the leachate streamis base flow derived from groundwater discharge. The main groundwater discharge

area is located west of Highway 220, approximately halfway between Pine Streetand the railroad tracks.
The stream bed west of Highway 220 varies in width from 10 to 25 feet and isdevoid of vegetation. The primary sources of the stream during dry periods are (A)small seeps of less than 1 gpm at the base of the railroad tracks originating fromthe mound around the leachate lagoon, (B) surface runoff from wet areas west ofthe Hammermill ball field, (C) groundwater discharge along the stream, and (D)Highway 220 seeps and storm runoff. East of Highway 220 the stream bed narrowsdown to 2 feet in width at the base and is vegetated. Surface runoff and seepsfrom the east side of Highway 220 drain into the stream east of the highway.
Throughout the period of study, groundwater elevations, stream flow, leachatelagoon surface water elevation, and seeps were observed and generally comparedwith general precipitation. During most of the period of study the leachate streamwas dry. No flow was observed between August 1983 and January 1984. Most flowoccurs during the spring time when groundwater elevation and base flow are thehighest. However, no quantitative stream flow information is available.
During February 1984, Bald Eagle Creek rose to 22.5 feet above normal levels,approximately 1.5 feet above flood stage. Observations made during the floodindicated that the leachate stream flooded. Two main seeps were observedoriginating from the railroad embankment, as shown in Figure 3-5.
Groundwater discharge into the stream bed would be proportional to groundwaterelevations. The elevated Highway 220 may act as a hydraulic barrier togroundwater flow from the Drake Site. This may cause an increase in groundwaterlevels west of the highway and increase groundwater discharge into the streamfrom the area between Drake and Highway 220 and from the area south of thestream from Hammermill property.
The hydraulic conductivity of the stream bed is low enough (approximately 10~5 -10~6 cm/sec) to cause local shallow confining conditions near the railroad tracks.

This is indicated by water levels in WP 5 and 6 being above the stream bed. In thearea between Drake Chemical and Pine Street the hydraulic conductivity of thebed is slightly higher (approximately 10~5 cm/sec). In this area, the stream bedintersects the groundwater table and base flow occurs. East of the highway theclay bed is thicker and has a lower permeability (approximately 10~6 cm/sec). Nowater was encountered during installation of the well point in the stream bed inCastanea Township Park. ^"iG
Stream flow which primarily originates east of Highway 220 would flow through aculvert under the highway and into Castanea Township Park. The stream wouldhave limited infiltration into the groundwater in this stretch during normal flowconditions due to the low hydraulic conductivity of the base of the stream bed.However, the amount of stream flow infiltrating into the ground would increasewith higher flow as the water level would rise to contact higher hydraulicconductivity materials higher up on the stream bank. The stream, as well asgroundwater in the township park discharges into Bald Eagle Creek.
3.2*3 Chemical Analysis
All groundwater samples were analyzed for priority pollutants, Fenac, TOH, TOC,sulfate, chloride, pH, conductivity, and ammonia. Analytical results are presentedin Tables 3-7, 3-8, and 3-9.
Fenac was detected in the onsite wells at concentrations ranging from 2,300 to57,000 micrograms per liter (ug/l)- Fenac concentration in the offsite monitoringwells ranged from not detectable to 389 yg/l.
The following inorganics were found in the onsite and offsite groundwater, with theexceptions that cyanide was not detected in offsite wells and selenium was notdetected in onsite wells:

3.2.4 Chemical Transport
Monitoring wells MW-14 and MW-B6 show the highest levels of contamination alongthe leachate stream. Analyses from MW-B6 indicate that contamination is highestin the shallow sample and quality improves with depth. This groundwater,especially near B6, may discharge into the stream during periods of highgroundwater levels when the surface of the water table intersects the stream bed.Otherwise, the groundwater would flow toward the east to northeast.
MW-M13, located south of the leachate stream has generally background qualitygroundwater with the exception of arsenic. The arsenic may be derived frominfiltration from the stream or from another offsite source.
At the lower end of the leachate stream monitoring wells M11 A and B and M12Aindicate water quality slightly poorer than background. Arsenic is at slightlyhigher concentrations than in MW-13 in the deeper monitoring wells.
3.2.5 Environmental and Health and Safety Concerns
Tables 3-10 and 3-11 compare the onsite and offsite inorganic concentrations,respectively, with drinking water standards and EPA water quality criteria forhuman health and aquatic life. The values given are for comparison only.Groundwater is not used as a source of drinking water in the vicinity of the site. Itis not known if groundwater ultimately flows to a body of surface water.
Table 3-12 compares the onsite and offsite concentration ranges with water qualitycriteria for human health and aquatic life. As stated previously, the values are forcomparison purposes only.

Lab blanks contained detectable concentrations of methylene chloride, acetone,and heptachlor. The pesticides analysis was validated as "unacceptable" accordingto quality assurance protocol and was hot repeated as it is meaningless.
It appears that Fenac can be used as an indication of subsurface soil contamination.Where Fenac concentrations are elevated, other chemical concentrations areelevated. The opposite also seems to be true, that is, low concentrations of Fenacare accompanied by low concentrations of other chemicals.

3.3.2 Chemical Transport
Chemicals present in subsurface soils could migrate to the groundwater. This couldhappen by infiltration of precipitation through the soil surface dissolving chemicalsor causing them to be transported by other means. Groundwater could also contactcontaminants causing them to migrate off site.
33.3 Environmental and Health and Safety Concerns
Table 3-16 compares the concentration ranges of metals detected in subsurface soilin the vicinity of the leachate stream with typical concentrations found in theenvironment or in the earth's crust. Values given are averages or concentrationranges.
There are no EPA standards for soil contamination from organic chemicals.Generally, organic compounds are not typically found in soil. Their presencesuggest that industrial and potentially hazardous wastes may have been disposed ofor spilled on the ground over a period of time, possibly to the depths encountered.Another possibility is chemical transport from the ground surface through thesubsurface via surface water infiltration and subsequent transport.

It appears that Fenac can be used as an indication of surface soil contamination.Where Fenac concentrations are elevated, other chemical concentrations are alsoelevated. The opposite also appears to be true.
3.4.2 Chemical Transport
Chemicals present In surface soils could possibly migrate to offsite surface soil,groundwater, and/or surface water. Chemicals could migrate off site to soil orsurface water through erosion and transport by surface water runoff or by theflooding of Bald Eagle Creek.

3.5.1.1 Chemical Analysis
Onsite samples were analyzed for priority pollutants, trichlorophenylacetic acid(Fenac), total organic halogens (TOH), total organic carbon (TOC), sulfate,chloride, pH, and conductivity. Five offsite samples were analyzed for prioritypollutants, Fenac, total dichlorobenzenes, and TOH. The remaining 6 offsitesamples were analyzed for the indicator parameters Fenac, TOH, anddichlorobenzenes. The analytical results of surface water samples are presented inTables 3-20, 3-21, and 3-22.
Fenac was detected in the leachate lagoon and in the canal lagoon atconcentrations ranging from 124 to 855 micrograms per liter (ug/l). Fenac was notdetected in Bald Eagle Creek upstream of the site or at the confluence betweenBald Eagle Creek and the leachate stream. Fenac concentrations in Bald EagleCreek downstream of the site ranged from 0.5 to Q.7
One of three Susquehanna River samples which was taken downstream of itsconfluence with Bald Eagle Creek, contained Fenac at a concentration of 0.9 U9/I-

3.5.1.2 Chemical Transport
Chemicals present in the surface water could migrate off site to soil, surfacewater and groundwater. Migration to offsite soil and surface water could occur ifthe onsite lagoons overflowed or discharged to the leachate stream. Flooding ofBald Eagle Creek could also cause contaminants to migrate. Chemicals couldmigrate downward to groundwater since the leachate lagoon is unlined.

3.5.2.1 Chemical Analysis
Onsite samples were analyzed for priority pollutants and Fenac. Five offsitesamples were analyzed for priority pollutants, Fenac, total dichlorobenzenes, andTOH. The six remaining offsite sediment samples were analyzed for the indicatorparameters Fenac, dichlorobenzene, and TOH. Analytical results appear inTables 3-25, 3-26, and 3-27. As expected, the sediment samples contained morecompounds and higher concentrations than the corresponding surface watersamples.

It appears that Fenac can be used to identify contamination in sediment samples.Where Fenac concentration were elevated, other chemical concentrations wereelevated. The opposite also appears to be true.
An ERT investigation was conducted in 1982 in conjunction with preparation of anExtent of Contamination (EOC) report. The EOC report focused on the leachatelagoon and leachate stream and the degree to which contaminants may havemigrated from the site via the leachate stream. Soils were sampled along sixtransects, perpendicular to the leachate stream, from its source to Bald EagleCreek. Surface water and sediment were sampled at 13 stations within theleachate channel as well as Bald Eagle Creek. All ERT samples were analyzed forFenac. The sediment samples were analyzed for the acid/base/neutral extractablepriority pollutants.
The ERT results indicated that predominant components of the leachate lagoonsediments were Fenac (400-2,830 ug/kg), dichlorobenzene (all isomers 290-1,840ug/kg), nitrobenzene (2,100 ug/kg), phenol (5,100 ug/kg), nitrotoluene (1,100Ug/kg), and dichlorophenol (1,200 ug/kg). The composition of sediment samplestaken over the course of the leachate channel was similar to that of the leachatelagoon. Fenac and dichlorobenzene were considered to typify contaminantdistribution within the leachate channel.
3-65
DRAFT
Fenac was found to be confined almost exclusively to the leachate channel, whilethe distribution of dichlorobenzene more closely reflected the pattern of sedimentdeposition within the channel and adjacent areas.
3.5.2.2 Chemical Transport
Chemicals present in onsite sediments and the leachate stream channel couldmigrate with sediment transport via surface water with subsequent downstreamdeposition. Flooding of the site and adjacent areas could also cause sedimentcontaminants to migrate offsite. Distribution in accord with sedimentation mightbe anticipated as the compounds detected tend to absorb to clays and silts. Duringthe ERT investigation, Fenac exhibited higher concentrations in backwater areaswithin the channel, supporting the conclusion.
3.5.2.3 Environmental and Health and Safety Concerns
Table 3-28 compares onsite and offsite concentration ranges of metals with valuestypically found in soils or in the earth's crust. Values given are averages or ranges.
There are no typical concentrations for organic compounds in sediment.
3.6 Aquatic Survey
3.6.1 Introduction
Bald Eagle Creek originates in a swamp, upstream from Hannah, Centre County,Pennsylvania and flows northeast 73 kilometers (46 miles), through Bald EagleValley to its confluence with the West Branch of the Susquehanna River near LockHaven, Pennsylvania. Agriculture and woodlands dominate land in the Bald Eagledrainage basin. The underlying geology of the drainage basin is complex and highlyvariable due to the geological folds of the Appalachian ridge and valley province.Sandstones, shales, and some limestone of the Upper and Middle Devonian periods

result in soft, moderately fertile water which becomes increasingly fertiledownstream (Pennsylvania Fish Commission, unpublished data 1983).
Numerous tributaries enter Bald Eagle Creek along its nearly linear course, thelargest being Beech Creek from the north and Spring and Fishing Creeks from thesouth. Approximately 30 miles downstream from its origin, Bald Eagte Creek isimpounded forming Blanchard Reservoir. Water quality standards of theCommonwealth of Pennsylvania classify Bald Eagle Creek into three water usecategories. From its origin to Laurel Run the creek is designated as a cold waterfishery, and is thereby protected for the maintenance and/or propagation of fishand associated flora and fauna indigenous to a cold water habitat (PADER, 1979).From Laurel Run to Nittany Creek, which enters the Blanchard Reservoir, stockedtrout are maintained from February 15 to July 31, and the creek is to bemaintained as such. The remaining stretch of Bald Eagle Creek, from NittanyCreek to the mouth, including the areas sampled for the present study, isdesignated as protected for warm water fish and additional flora and faunaindigenous to a warm water habitat (PADER, 1979).
Previous water quality monitoring and aquatic surveys of the Bald Eagle Creekwatershed have been conducted by private and governmental agencies. A summaryof this information is presented to provide baseline data, help characterize theenvironmental status of the Creek, and to identify historic sources of chemicalcontamination and/or habitat degradation.
The Bureau of Water Quality Management (BWQM) of the Pennsylvania Departmentof Environmental Resources (PADER) has performed a number of statewide surveyswhich have included samplings within the Bald Eagle Creek watershed. Thedrainage is included in Region 6 of the Comprehensive Water Quality ManagementProgram (COWAMP), an area including fourteen (14) counties in centralPennsylvania. The region contains numerous rivers and streams, totallingapproximately 3,403 stream miles. Water quality within the region is generallygood by Pennsylvania Water Quality Standards, with about 84 percent of the streammiles meeting these standards (PADER, 1982). The remaining stream miles exhibit

chronic or intermittent water quality problems, primarily from acid mine drainagefrom abandoned mines but also from agricultural runoff and domestic sewage.
A summary of water quality sampling results for Bald Eagle Creek and two (2) ofits tributaries (Spring Creek and Fishing Creek) is presented in Table 3-29. Theupper reaches of Bald Eagle Creek appear to have maintained good water qualitywith the exception of some organic enrichment due to agricultural and sewagedischarges (PADER, 1974). However, downstream conditions deteriorate due to theinput of industrial as well as domestic waste. Styrene and oil spills occurred inFishing Creek in 1979 and 1980 respectively (PADER, 1982). In 1980, Spring Creekwas discovered to contain the chemicals Kepone and Mirex due to leaching fromwaste areas. These chemicals were found to occur in fish flesh samples inconcentrations high enough to cause the banning of fishing (W. Parsons, BWQM,Personal communication). Corrective action has been initiated, however, leachingof these chemicals into Spring Creek continues. Although no longer constituting amajor impact, a discharge from the Hammermill Paper Company until 1978 causeddramatic reductions in the water quality of the lower Bald Eagle Creek, dueprimarily to organic enrichment and high biological oxygen demand (BOD) (Instituteof Paper Chemistry, 1979).
In 1976, flesh tissue from fish collected approximately 1.5 miles upstream from themouth of Bald Eagle Creek was sampled for PCBs and eleven (11) heavy metals.The results are also presented in Table 3-29. PCBs were found in a sample of sixpredator fish at a concentration of 0.08 ug/kg wet weight, which is far below theFDA "action level" of 5 ug/kg. In a sample of five bottom feeders, no detectablelevels were found (Breznia, 1977). These flesh tissue samples contained nine of theeleven metals at low concentrations. Levels were below the established tolerancelimits for edible fish flesh set by the U.S. FDA and/or Canadian Food and DrugDirectorate (Brezina and Arnold, 1977).

3.6.2 Physical Water Parameters ;
Temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and conductivity measurements for each of thenine stations are presented in Table 3-30. Temperatures ranged from 14.0°C(Station 1008) to 17.6°C (Stations 1001 and 1003), expected values for shallowstreams during this season. Dissolved oxygen was high at all stations ranging from7.8 mg/l to 12.8 mg/l based upon the solubility of oxygen at th'e recordedtemperatures. The percent saturation ranged from 82 percent to 90 percent forthe Bald Eagle Creek stations. Stations 1008 and 1009 on the Susquehanna Riverexhibited supersaturation levels of oxygen of 101 percent and 128 percent,respectively. High oxygen values would be expected in cool water of shallowstreams with numerous riffles to provide aeration. Also, as oxygen measurementswere taken during daylight hours, photosynthetic oxygen contributed to thesevalues. The pH of Bald Eagle Creek was consistently that of a weak base withvalues of 7.8 to 8.0. However, at station 1008 of the Susquehanna River, pH was3.8. This highly acidic water was most likely due to acid mine drainage whicheffects much of the Susquehanna River in this region. The effects of this acidicwater on the aquatic life were very noticable with normal stream flora and faunareduced in abundance and supplanted with acidiophilic forms. At the confluence ofBald Eagle Creek and the Susquehanna River the mixing of these basic and acidicwaters produced a distinctly visible reaction which produced floccuiant material atthe interface zone. Complete mixing was not achieved for several stream milesand at the downstream Susquehanna River station (1009) which was located nearthe shoreline continguous with Bald Eagle Creek. The pH was reduced only slightlyto a neutral (7.0) state.
Conductivity values were within the range expected for Bald Eagle Creek and thelower Susquehanna River station (340 to 420 mhos/cm). However, reflecting theacidic state of the upper Susquehanna River station, conductivity increased to 580Umhos/cm. With the exception of Station 1008 on the Susquehanna River, allmeasured physical parameters were within expected ranges and indicate favorableconditions for stream flora and fauna.

3.6.3.1 Fish Collection •"-
A total of 16 species of fish representing 7 families was collected or observed atthe Bald Eagle Creek and Susquehanna River stations (Table 3-31). The speciescomposition indicates a warm water fishery which is consistent with thePennsylvania stream classification for the lower reaches of these streams (PADER,1979). Sunfish (bass, crappie, rock bass, bluegill) were the most abundant predatoryfish, foraging on a base of minnows, darters, and benthic macroinvertebrates.Bottom feeders included carp, white suckers, and catfish. Although not collected,one brown trout was observed in the vicinity of Station 1003.
Table 3-32 presents the results of fish collections at each station and the totalweight and length range for each species. Stations 1002 and 1006 werequalitatively sampled by kick seine only. With the exception of Station 1008,where acidic waters occurred and both diversity and abundance were reduced, fishcollections were comparable between stations. Generally, the species presentindicate moderate to good water quality; however, due to the fish's mobility andability to rapidly recolonize areas, the present fish community may not berepresentative of past stream conditions.
3.6.3.2 Tissue Analysis
Thirty-six (36) fish specimens were examined for chemical residue (Table 3-33).These fish included both predatory fish and bottom feeders ranging in age from 2 to5 years! Tissue samples were analyzed for the herbicide Fenac. Ten milliliterextracts of the tissue were prepared and analyzed. The detection limit for thisanalysis was 12 ug/kg. No detectable levels of Fenac were detected in any fishflesh sample.

the percent each taxa represents the total number of invertebrates). A total of18,806 individuals representing 77 taxa distributed among the following groupswere collected: Diptera (27), Trichoptera (11), Coleoptera (6), Megaloptera (2),Hemiptera (1), Odonata (2), Ephemeroptera (12), Crustacea (1), Mollusca (2),Oligochaeta (9), Polychaeta (1), Turbellaria (1), Nematoda (1). Themacroinvertebrate taxa and distributions collected during this survey were similarto those reported in studies completed by the Institute of Paper Chemistry (IPC) in1974 and 1978.
Percent similarity analysis (PSc) indicate that samples taken in Bald Eagle Creekexcept for Station 1003 have a moderate to high degree of similarity (PSc rangingfrom 62.4 between Stations 1006N and 1002N to 91.65 between Stations 1004N and1001N (Table 3-36). Taxa present at Station 1003 are similar to those observed atother stations in Bald Eagle Creek, however, differences exist in their relativeabundance (Table 3-37). This results in less similarity between Station 1003 andother stations sampled. Stations 1002, 1001, 1004, and 1006 are dominated by theTrichopteran Cheumatophysche. Cheumatophysche generally account for morethan 50 percent of the total number of organisms collected at these stations. Thedominance of Cheumatopsyche is reflected in the relatively high redundancy values(r>0.50) calculated for these stations (Table 3-38). Many species of the genus,Cheumatopsvche, are known to be tolerant of organic enrichment.
It is well established that the distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates is, in part,dependent on abiotic factors. Physical characteristics at Station 1003 differ fromthose encountered at other Bald Eagle Creek sample stations. Water is deeper,currents slower, and the substrate softer and more varied at this station resultingin a somewhat different aquatic habitat. Station 1003 does not support as dense apopulation of Cheumatopsvche as other stations. Cheumatopsyche, whilenumerically important at this station, is codominant with the Gastropod Ferrissiarivularis and the Ephemeropteran Caenis on the north side of Station 1003. Caenisand the Naidid Nais are the codominant taxa at this station on the south side of thecreek.

Diversity values (D) in the study area range from 1.48 to 3.92 (Stations 1004N and1003N, respectively, Table 3-38). Although D values tend to be lower on thenorthern side of Bald Eagle Creek no distinct differences were attributed to theDrake Chemical Site. At the time of this study no point source discharge from thesite to Bald Eagle Creek were observed. The stream that carries discharges toBald Eagle Creek from the site was dry.
In general, sampling stations in the Susquehanna River are characterized as havingsparse populations with few taxa. There is little similarity existing among theSusquehanna River stations and with those in Bald Eagle Creek. The onlySusquehanna River station that is similar to the Bald Eagle Creek sampling stationsin terms of taxa occurrence is Station 1007 south side. This station, althoughlocated in the Susquehanna River, is strongly influenced by water flow from BaldEagle Creek. Macroinvertebrate distributions at Station 1007S are probably due tocolonization of macroinvertebrates drifting from epicenters in Bald Eagle Creek.A moderate degree of similarity is seen between Station 1007S and Stations 1002,1001, 1004, and 1006 (range of PSc 51.8 to 76.7).
3.6.5 Diatom Survey
A total of 53 species of diatoms were observed in samples from the eight transectstations (Table 3-39). The diatom assemblages indicated that three types of waterquality were present for the eight transects. Areas of stations that wereinfluenced only by water from Bald Eagle Creek (Stations 1001 through 1006) haddominant species such as Achnanthes minutissima. Amphora perpusilla, andRhoicosphenia curvata that are indicative of highly oxygenated, neutral to slightlyalkaline water (Lowe, 1974). The station on the Susquehanna River upstrem of BaldEagle Creek (Station 1008) had dominant diatoms such as Eunotia exigua andNavicula bergeri that are indicative of acidic waters. At Station 1007, wherewaters were mixed from Bald Eagle Creek and Susquehanna River, Achnanthesminutissima was the only dominant diatom (78 to 82 percent). Cyclotellameneghiniana (1.0 to 2.7 percent) and Anomoeoneis vitrea (6.2 percent) were

common and present only at Station 1007. These diatoms reflect a slightly acidicto neutral pH and oxygenated waters in the mixing zone of Station 1007.
A community comparison index or similarity index which provides a percentagesimilarity of species common to two communities was used to compare the northand south areas of each station transect. Similarity indices (Table 3-39) were high(0.83 to 0.99) for transects 1004, 1006, 1007 and 1008 which indicates that diatompopulations of each respective north and south area were only slightly different (1to 7 percent). The similarity index for diatoms at station 1006 was very low (0.02)which reflected the large difference (99.98 percent) of water quality between thenorth and south shore zones. The northern zone of station 1006 received water "?/V\primarily from the Susquehanna River which contained acidic mine drainage '" ' ^whereas the southern shore zone received water from Bald Eagle Creek.
Shannon-Weiner diversity indices for the diatom assemblages were highest (2.33 to4.06) at sampling points that received water from Bald Eagle Creek and lowest(1.11 to 1.56) at stations influenced by the Susquehanna River (Table 3-39).
Evenness expresses the distribution of individuals among the species present wherea maximum value of 1.0 represents all species of the sample have an equal numberof individuals. Evenness indices reflected the same trend as Shannon indices;highest values (0.55 to 0.81) for Bald Eagle Creek and lowest values (0.35 to 0.43)for the stations influenced by the Susquehanna River.
In summary, diatom species composition and diversity indices indicated that duringthe short term prior to sampling. Bald Eagle Creek had an absence of gross organicpollution, was neutral to slightly alkaline, and had well oxygenated waters. Diatompopulations at stations on the Susquehanna River were typical of streams affectedby acidic mine drainage. No differences of diatom populations among the stationscould be attributed to the Drake Chemical Site.

3.7 Terrestrial Survey
The primary route of concern for offsite migration is via a leachate channel, whichmay emanate from the unlined leachate lagoon. The leachate is conducted via acorrugated metal pipe (CMP) through a railroad grade adjacent to the leachatelagoon and emerges at the head of a swale. From this point the leachate channelmeanders across the flood plain for approximately 1,620 feet to its confluence withBald Eagle Creek. The channel ranges from 20 to 50 feet in width within theswale, which continues for approximately 550 feet downstream of the culvert. Atthis point, the flow is conveyed under South Pine Street and the channel assumes asteeper gradient and more compact cross section. This general configuration1persists for the remainder of the channel reach to Bald Eagle Creek.
The swale area lies adjacent to a ballfield on the Hammermill Paper Companyproperty. In addition, the leachate channel traverses Castanea Township Parkafter passing under Route 220. The leachate channel itself has been surrounded bya snow fence and signed to discourage contact by the general public. In addition,the Castanea Township Park has been closed indefinitely until the extent of dangerfrom the leachate stream has been fully characterized.
To facilitate presentation of the results of this survey, the site and vicinity havebeen divided into seven subareas as noted below.

species within each life form and provides a convenient means of noting the variousspecies found during the survey.
)General descriptions of each of the subareas in the vicinity of the leachate stream,follow. Emphasis has been placed upon any notation of vegetative stress during thesite reconnaissance. As this phase of the report deals only with the leachatestream area, descriptions are given only for subareas 1,5,6, and 7.
3.7.1 Area No. 1 Drake Chemical Site
The Drake Chemical Site occupies an area of approximately eight areas all ofwhich are enclosed by a security fence. The site is essentially devoid ofvegetation. Where chemical spills may have been a contributing factor, the lack ofvegetation can be adequately explained by the normal conduct of operations duringactive manufacturing. The latter would have involved site grading, includinggrading of demolition material, and equipment movement across the site. It mayalso have included intentional use of herbicides to suppress vegetative growtharound the manufacturing buildings, or the use of the site for the disposal ofchemical sludge.
The embankments of the lagoons were found to be sparsely colonized by pioneerspecies of grasses and small black locust and wild black cherries.
The only trees noted above 15 feet in height were black locust in a lowlying areaimmediately northwest of the manufacturing buildings. Older black locust in thisarea had died; however, younger black locust on elevated areas in the vicinity werefound to be living.
Vegetation from seed sources surrounding the site would have difficulty becomingestablished due to the hardened surface soil, or lack of soil in the areas covered bydemolition waste.

Inspection of the leachate lagoon evidenced no aquatic plant life. However, waterstriders (Gerris sp.) and Dytiscid water beetles were noted. The latter appeared tobe present in large numbers in the shallower portions of the lagoon.
Rabbits (Svlvilagus floridanus) have been noted frequenting the site by NUS fieldpersonnel and killdeer (Charadrius vociferous) were noted during the sitereconnaissance. There are also reports of waterfowl having been sighted onimpoundments at AC&C immediately to the west of the Drake Site.
3.7.2 Area No. 5 Hammermill Ballfield
This tract lies to the southwest of the Drake Site and the leachate stream andencompasses approximately nine acres, most of which is maintained as openland,either as the ballfield or mowed field between the ballfield and Route 220. Whilethe ballfield is primarily vegetated by fescues, the open field supports native weedspecies such as asters, goldenrod, and foxtails in addition to fescues. A large openarea lies to the southwest of the ballfield. This area is apparently being utilized byHammermill for disposal of a flyash byproduct. During wet periods, leachate froma portion of the flyash residue apparently flows along the right field line of theballfield, ponding slightly near the dugout area and then moving to the northeasttoward the leachate swale. Vegetative stress as a result of this discharge isapparent over the course of the drainage, dissipating as the flow turns toward theleachate swale.
3.7.3 Area No. 6: Leachate Swale and Leachate Channel
Upon exiting from a pipe culvert under the railroad grade, leachate flows through aswale to a second culvert under South Pine Street. The leachate channel is clearlydefined within the swale as a barren zone approximately 25 to 40 feet in width.Vegetation was either present or absent, with no intergrade between vegetated andbarren areas. Little, if any, vegetative stress was noted along the periphery of thebarren area. A willow and small black locust within 10 feet of the barren area atthe head of the swale showed no evidence of vegetative stress. Although the

reconnaissance was not exhaustive, no isolated zones of impact appear to existaway from the main channel. Lowlying portions of the swale were heavilyvegetated with sedges and clump grasses adapted to the moist conditions. Higherground was found heavily colonized by goidenrod, asters, and other typical uplandherbaceous vegetation and small trees.
The character of the leachate channel changes downstream of the culvert underSouth Pine Street. The gradient becomes steeper with a corresponding compressionof the channel cross section.
Riparian cover between South Pine Street and Route 220 includes more woodyspecies such as sapling silver maples and black locust. The clear demarcationbetween affected and unaffected vegetation remains however, with the barrenzone reduced to four to six feet in width.
The leachate is then conveyed under Route 220, and ultimately traverses theCastanea Township Park for a distance of approximately 550 feet before joiningBald Eagle Creek. The final reach of the leachate stream through the Park areaappears to exhibit a moderate gradient which increases with proximity to BaldEagle Creek. This is evident from limited meandering and delta formation at thehead of this reach, and sharper channel definition as the leachate proceedsdownstream. The effect on riparian vegetation again appears to follow the patternof sediment deposition, with no observable vegetative stress beyond the perimeterof the barren channel.
The banks of this reach of the leachate channel support more mature woodyvegetation than is the case further upstream. Box elder, trembling, and quakingaspen, wild black cherry, black locust, willow, elm, ash, and hickory were amongthe tree species noted.
Herbaceous cover and understory consist primarily of foxtails, American vetch, andgoidenrod near Route 220, with goidenrod, shrubby dogwood, small saplings, and afew brambles further downstream.

At one point a trembling aspen immediately adjacent to the leachate channel wasfound to be defoliated, while others further from the channel exhibited good growthcharacteristics. While this may have resulted from proximity to the leachate, itssignificance is questionable.
3.7.4 Area No. 7: Castanea Township Park
This tract lies between Route 220 and Bald Eagle Creek, consisting ofapproximately 12 acres to the east of the leachate channel and four acres to thewest of the channel. An access road is located along Bald Eagle Creek along thesourthern periphery of the park. Peripheral areas are treed, but the park itself hasbeen cleared for ballfields, a picnic pavillion, swings, and an exercise course.Approximately one acre of the park has been planted with field corn. This area islocated near the Park entrance to the southwest. Small ornamental plantings ofblack birch, blue spruce, European larch, tulip, poplar and apples were noted duringthe site reconnaissance. In addition, a few large box elders, silver maples, andNorway spruce were apparently left in place during landscaping of the park.
Without periodic mowing, the herbaceous cover in the park has reverted to amixture of fescue, orchardgrass, and weed species typical of the early stages ofopen field succession. The latter include foxtails, goidenrod, asters, and a numberof mature forbs.
Approximately one acre of wooded land, about half of which is lowland, is withinthe northeastern section of the park. In addition to cattails and sedges, thelowland portion supports sparse tree cover, including willow, box elder, andhawthorns. Elms, ash, silver maples, and a few birch were found on the uplandportion of this tract.
In addition to the leachate channel, described in the preceding section, scrublandbordering the park to the north and wooded riparian land along Bald Eagle Creekrepresent the only other woodland in the park vicinity. The scrubland was found tosupport a mixture of sumac, black locust, wild black cherry, and brambles. While
3-114
DRAFT
most of this cover was low, a few of the black locust may have reached 40 feet inheight. The banks of Bald Eagle Creek support large box elders, black locust, and afew willows.
Because of the location of the park within the flood plain of Bald Eagle Creek andthe apparent positive correlation between Fenac concentrations and patterns ofsediment distribution, isolated impact zones might have been anticipated atvarying distances from the leachate channel. However, no evidence of stressedvegetation was found during the site reconnaissance which would indicatedistribution of Fenac away from the leachate channel. This is consistent withsampling results summarized in the EOC re part.
Observation of the present poor condition of the cornfield within the park has ledto speculation that Fenac present in the soil might be a contributing factor. Theplants themselves are stunted, reaching a maximum height of about four feet, oronly about half that which might be expected. When formed, the ears are poorlydeveloped.
Fenac is not approved for use with corn, and would probably exert an effect uponthe germanating seeds if it was present in the soil, killing the plants in that stage.In addition, observation of the cornfield during the site reconnaissance showed avigorous growth of foxtails, which would not be expected if herbicidalconcentrations of Fenac were present in the soil. No zones of vegetative stresswere detected between the leachate channel and the cornfield. In all probability,the substandard growth of the corn is due to poor management practices, i.e., soilimprovement, weed control, cultivation, etc. or to use of inferior seed.
The park is essentially an open field community, and should support a variety ofrodent species. During the site reconnaissance, a rabbit was flushed from cover inthe lowland area to the northeast, and a white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus)was sighted within the leachate channel enclosure.

DRAFT
3.7.5 Summary
The site itself is essentially without vegetation. The effects from leachatecontaining Fenac, among other contaminants, were noted within the leachatechannel. The leachate channel itself is devoid of vegetation over its entire1,620 foot length. Field observations noted no significant affects upon terrestrialvegetation beyond the established channel as a result of the leachate stream.
Drainage from a flyash-like residue was found to have adversely affected someherbaceous vegetation along the right field line of the Hammermill ballfield. Thishas been noted only for the scale of completeness. At this time there is no reasonto suspect any connection with site activities or with the leachate.
A cornfield on the Castanea Township Park property exhibits poor growth form andproductivity as a result of poor management or inferior seed selection. Noevidence exists to suggest that the leachate is in any way responsible for poorgrowth of the corn.
As noted previously, anomalies in vegetation which could be adequately explainedwith reference to physical factors were not considered "vegetational stress" for thepurposes of this survey. This survey was undertaken at a time when many of thedeciduous trees were beginning to lose their leaves. This was especially true in thecase of box elder. Similarly, many of the warm season grasses and otherherbaceous vegetation had flowered and were beginning to die back.

4.0 HEALTH RISK ASSESSMENT
4.1 Introduction
The purpose of a risk assessment is to evaluate the risks posed by hazardous wastesite conditions to the general public and to remedial action personnel. Typically,this process involves identification of the hazardous compounds of greatest, concern,definition of significant contaminant migration routes and exposure pathways,prediction of the compounds' environmental fate and likely concentration at pointsof exposure, and an assessment of possible health effects in light of probableexposure scenarios.
In performing a risk assessment, several factors must be considered. Theseinclude:
• Present site conditions, as defined by the remedial investigations;
• Relevance of current and historical analytical data;
• Physical, chemical, and biological variables affecting the environmentalfate and mobility of compounds;
• Potential human receptors and their likelihood of exposure andsusceptibility to those compounds; and
• Health effects associated with exposure to those compounds, and anyascertainable synergistic, additive, or inhibitory effects.
The extent to which each of the above factors is to be evaluated depends upon thescope and objectives of a given risk assessment. Conversely, any limitations to theextent to which these factors can be evaluated will limit the scope of riskassessment that can be performed and the conclusions which can be inferred. Suchlimitations may include the validity and applicability of laboratory data, relevance
4-1
ftR3QQi*97
DRAFT
of toxiological data to site-specific exposure scenarios, and the degree ofpredictability of such variables as probabilities of exposure or environmentalconcentration at a particular point or time.
The objective of this risk assessment is to evaluate the chemical hazards andhealth risks associated with the leachate stream extending southward from theDrake Chemical Site to Bald Eagle Creek. This report will describe the variousexposure pathways, identify critical chemical contaminants, and assess potentialhealth effects of exposures. Because the risk assessment is focused only on theleachate stream, this evaluation may not be applicable to all site conditions andimpacts as a whole. Additionally, as with any risk assessment procedure, technicaland procedural, limitations may preclude assignment of risk in absolute terms incertain situations. Where relevant, significant limitations will be discussed in theappropriate sections to follow.
4.2 Exposure Pathway Analysis
Simply stated, an exposure pathway is the environmental route by which acontaminant may reach a susceptible receptor. In order for a pathway to becomplete, three factors must be present: a source of contamination, a route ofcontaminant transport, and human receptors within, or at the end of, that route.
4.2.1 Source of Contamination
Although it is presumed that the contaminants in the leachate stream originatedfrom a source or sources on the Drake Chemical Site, it is beyond the scope of thisfocused risk assessment to identify and evaluate those potential sources.Therefore, for the purpose of evaluating the health risks posed within the leachatearea, the leachate stream, itself, will be regarded as the contaminant source.
4-2
&R3Q6U98
DRAFT
4.2.2 Routes of Transport
The primary modes of environmental contaminant transport from the leachatestream are via surface and groundwater movement of suspended or dissolvedcontaminants. Although airborne migration of vapors and contaminated paniculatematter also may be considered, data indicate the highest contaminantconcentrations are adsorbed on sediment. This, and the propensity of the area forflooding suggest that the airborne route is of little significance in comparison.
4.2.3 Receptors
The nearest business and residential populations to the leachate area areapproximately 1/4 to 1/2 mile to the north and northwest of the leachate area.The leachate area, extends south and east from the Drake Chemical Site, awayfrom those populations. However, the stream extends across or is adjacent topublic use areas, including the Hammermill Paper Company baseball field and theCastanea Township Park. There is no reported groundwater use in the area.Therefore, those persons subject to the greatest risk from the leachate stream arethe transient populations who may come into direct contact with the leachatewhile using the recreational areas. Also potentially at risk are those persons usingBald Eagle Creek for fishing or other recreational purposes, downstream from theconfluence of the leachate stream and the creek.
43 Analytical Data Base
One of the most critical factors in risk assessment is the type of analytical dataavailable as input. An ideal data base will include samples of all media associatedwith of exposure pathways from the source, analysis for all critcial compounds andindicators and valid analytical data of verifiable quality. The types of analyticaldata available for the various media in the leachate stream area are described inthe following sections.
4-3
RR308U99
DRAFT
4.3.1 Air Sampling
Data characterizing vapor or paniculate contaminants in air in the leachate areaare not available. Site conditions, however, suggest that the air exposure pathwayis of relatively low significance.
4.3.2 Groundwater Sampling
Seven groundwater samples were collected from monitoring wells (B6, M14, M13,M11A, M11B, M12A, and M12B) near the leachate stream, four onsite monitoringwells nearest the leachate stream (Ml, M5, M6 and M7), and one well (M10) on theAmerican Color and Chemical property above the leachate area. All groundwatersample analysis included Fenac, TOH, TOC and organic and inorganic prioritypollutants.
4.3.3 Subsurface Soils
Subsurface soil samples were collected during the drilling of four monitoring wellsin the leachate area (Mil, M12, M13, M14). These were analyzed for Fenac, TOH,TOC, and organic priority pollutants. Subsurface samples collected from fiveonsite wells above the leachate area (M1, M5, M6, M7, and M10), one sample fromCastanea Township Park, and one onsite soil boring (TB-1), were analyzed forFenac, TOH, TOC, and both organic and inorganic priority pollutants. A soil boring(Boring 14) between the canal and leachate lagoons on site was analyzed only forFenac, TOH, and TOC. Results of pesticide analyses of these samples weredetermined "unacceptable" by the data validation process, and are not included inthis risk assessment.
4.3.4 Surface Soils
Surface soil samples were collected from several locations both on the DrakeChemical Site and in and near the leachate stream area. Of those surface soilsamples collected in the leachate area, only the one from the Castanea Township
4-4
DRAFT
Park cornfield was analyzed for organic and inorganic priority pollutants, as well asfor Fenac and TOC. Surface soil samples from four leachate area monitoring welllocations (M11, M12, M13, M14) were analyzed for Fenac and organic prioritypollutants. The remaining seven leachate stream and adjacent area soil samplesand one from onsite soil boring 14, were analyzed only for Fenac, TOH, and TOC.A surface soil sample from onsite well Ml was analyzed for Fenac and prioritypollutants only.
4.3.5 Surface Water and Sediment
Three onsite leachate lagoon samples were analyzed for Fenac, TOH,dichlorobenzenes, and organic and inorganic priority pollutants. A total of threesample locations in Bald Eagle Creek (one upstream, one at the leachate streamconfluence, and one downstream of the leachate stream), and one location in theleachate stream, were sampled and analyzed for organic and inorganic prioritypollutants, TOH, dichlorobenzenes, and Fenac. Two additional downstream BaldEagle Creek samples were collected and analyzed for TOH, dichlorobenzenes, andFenac only.
Sediment samples were collected from the same locations and analyzed for thesame parameters, with the exception that TOH was not analyzed in the threeonsite lagoon sediment samples.
43.6 Rsh Tissue
Thirty-six fish specimens were collected from sampling stations in Bald EagleCreek and the Susquehanna River for Fenac analysis. Fenac was not detected inthe fish tissues.
43.7 Historical Data
In March 1982, the USEPA ERT conducted an Extent of Contamination (EOC) studyof aqueous and sediment samples along the length of the leachate stream, as well
4-5
'
&R3G05QI
DRAFT
as soil samples from several transects extending laterally from the leachatestream. The EOC study focused on thirteen compounds of interest. Apparentlyexcluded from the study were inorganics, volatile organics, and pesticides. On thebasis of that study, the ERT concluded that the contaminants generally attenuatedalong the length of the leachate stream due to soil and sediment adsorption, andthat Fenac and dichlorobenzenes are the best indicators of the extent ofcontamination in the leachate area.
4.4 Critical Contaminants Detected
The results of sampling analysis from the remedial investigation are discussedthroughout Section 3.0 of this report, and are summarized in Tables 3-7 through3-28. On the basis of the inherent toxicities of the compounds detected, theirrelative concentrations, and the most probable exposure pathways, severalcompounds were selected as representing the greatest potential risks. Thesecritical compounds, the sampling media in which detected, and their range ofconcentrations are presented in Table 4-1.
Although a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds were detected amongthe many samples analyzed, selection of the most critical compounds wassomewhat limited by variations in the parameters analyzed for among the differentsamples. As pointed out in Section 4.3, the analytical data base varied among thedifferent sample types both within and among Ihe various sampling media. Forexample, potentially significant compounds such as benzene, chloroform,methylene, chloride, and 1,2-dichloroethane were detected in groundwater samplesfrom offsite monitoring wells in the leachate stream area. However, there are nocorresponding volatile organic analyses available for related subsurface and surfacesoil samples. On the basis of the site-specific condition that local groundwaterdoes not pose a significant exposure pathway and human health risk, thesecompounds were not included in the critical compound list. Had they beenanalyzed for and detected in soil samples, they may have been included in that list,possibly modifying the assessed risk of the leachate area.

While such limitations preclude accurate quantification of health risks, they dopermit an appraisal of site conditions and the possible risks involved. Sufficientindicator data are available to perform a reasonable, qualitative assessment.
4.5 Assessment of Critical Contaminants
Because of the aforementioned variations in the analytical data base, ameaningfully, quantitative comparison of each relevant sampling location cannotbe made. Therefore, this section will discuss in more qualitative terms the healthrisks associated with the compounds selected as most indicative of the hazardsposed by the leachate stream.
4.5.1 Fenac
Fenac, or 2,3,6-trichlorophenylacetic acid, is a persistent herbicide which wasmanufactured at the Drake Chemical Site. Its presence on the site has beendescribed as "ubiquitous", and as an indicator of other onsite contaminants. Anoral dosage of Fenac of 1,780 mg/kg body weight has been shown to be lethal to 50percent of the experimental rats so exposed, and a dermal dosage of 3,160 mg/kghas proven fatal to 50 percent of exposed laboratory rabbits. It is considered to beonly moderately acutely toxic to humans, with a probable lethal oral doseestimated to be between 0.5 and 5 grams/kg (between one ounce and one pint for a150 pound person).
Although there are no estimates of long term exposure effects to humans, atwo-year feeding trial in which rats were fed a diet containing 2,000 mg/kg bodyweight Fenac showed no ill effects. In comparison, the highest concentration foundin the leachate stream was a sediment containing 13 mg/kg of soil. At this level ofFenac, a 70 kg person would have to consume in excess of 10,000 kg of sediment toingest 2,000 mg/kg of Fenac. Although this suggests that health risks of acuteexposures are low, Fenac is a persistent compound and any delayed effects of longterm exposure have not yet been identified. The compound is soluble in water (200mg/liter) and can be expected to migrate through the leachate area via
4-8
RR3QQ50U
DRAFT
groundwater discharge or via rainfall or flooding. Persons with chronic skindiseases or sensitivity to chemicals are generally advised to avoid use or contactwith pure Fenac. However, the risks associated with acute exposure to the levelsof Fenac detected in the leachate area appear to be low.
4.5.2 Arsenic»
Arsenic is a highly toxic compound from which both acute and chronic toxicity canbe expected, and it is a recognized carcinogen. Epidemiologic studies havesuggested that arsenic in drinking water may be related to increased incidence ofskin cancer, and industrial and agricultural exposures have been implicated incancer of the skin and respiratory tract (Hammond). Although is described asinsoluble in water, it was detected in groundwater samples. The finding of arsenicin the leachate area samples is worthy of note in that the highest concentrationwas found in the well nearest Bald Eagle Creek, and the lowest at the upper end ofthe leachate stream, near the Drake leachate lagoon. In general, arsenic levels ingroundwater were higher in the leachate area than on site. The increased levels ofarsenic in the groundwater near the creek suggests possible contamination of thecreek, with consequent bioaccumulation and potential risk for persons making useof Bald Eagle Creek. Sediment samples from the creek contained as high as14 mg/kg arsenic downstream from the leachate stream confluence. Bycomparison, EPA Water Quality Criteria recommend 2.2 ng/l as the level of arsenicin water which may result in an incremental increase of cancer risk of one in onemillion over a lifetime.
4.5.3 Dichlorobenzene
Dichlorobenzenes are described along with Fenac as one of the best indicators ofcontamination at the Drake Chemical Site. Total dichlorobenzene concentrationsup to 18,100 ug/kg were detected in sediment samples from the leachate stream.
The 1,2- and 1,4- isomers of dichlorobenzene were found most commonly. Theseare moderately toxic compounds, via inhalation exposures, but the 1,4-isomer is
4-9
DRAFT
considered to be more toxic orally than the 1,2-isomer. Both pure compounds mayproduce a painful irritating effect to the skin and mucous membranes, but are notwell absorbed through the skin. However, it is not highly likely that casual contactwith dichlorobenzene-contaminated soils would cause significant adverse effects.It is useful, however, as a measure of general site contamination.
4.5.4 Pentachlorophenol
Pentachlorophenol is a very toxic compound which may be absorbed through the rf**fskin and gastrointestinal tract. The lethal oral dose for 50 percent of anV
experimental rat population was found to be 50 mg/kg; for hamsters, 168 mg/kg.The minimum acute lethal dose for sheep and calves was shown to be 120 and 140mg/kg, respectively.
Dermal penetration is the most dangerous exposure pathway. Acute skin exposuremay result in a contact dermatitis. Extended periods of exposure toPentachlorophenol have resulted in a persistent chloracne.
Pentachlorophenol was found in only one leachate stream sediment sample at211 ug/kg, and in only one subsurface soil sample (MW 14) at 4400 yg/kg. Becausesurface soil analyses did not include Pentachlorophenol, it is not possible todetermine the significance of health risk, if any, due to pentachlorophenolthroughout the leachate stream area. Because of pentachlorophenol's presence inthe two samples near the stream, and because of its capability for dermalabsorption, there is a potential risk posed to persons using the recreational areasnear the stream. Risks posed by casual, intermittent contact with contaminatedsoils would be low. Extended periods of contact may result in increased risk ofdermal exposure, especially among sensitive individuals.
4.5.5 Other Compounds
Three organic compounds detected in groundwater samples were omitted from theCritical Compound list (Table 4-1) because groundwater useage is not a significant
4-10
DRAFT
human exposure pathway at the Drake Chemical Site. These compounds, benzene,chloroform, and 1,2-dichloroethane, are of indirect significance in that all threeare carcinogens, and all three are present at levels exceeding acceptable dailyintake levels (assuming groundwater used as drinking water at an average usagerate of 2 liters per day). The presence of these compounds in the groundwatersuggest their possible presence in other media. Further evaluation of remedialalternatives should address the presence, extent, and source of these volatileorganic compounds in the leachate stream area.
4.6 Summary
This risk assessment was an evaluation of potential health risks presently posed bythe leachate stream area of the Drake Chemical Site. The risk assessment wasperformed qualitatively on the basis of selected compounds indicative of thepotential risks posed by the variety of compounds detected in the samples. Thefindings of the risk assessment indicate that the greatest risk of exposure, althoughrelatively low, is posed by direct contact with dermally active or absorbentcompounds present in the leachate area. Of secondary importance were risks posedby compounds which may be discharged into Bald Eagle Creek and accumulated byaquatic life. To date, no significant impact has been found on aquatic life in BaldEagle Creek due to the Drake Site. Although of less importance from thestandpoint of exposure pathway significance, groundwater was found contaminatedwith highly toxic, carcinogenic compounds which may be significant to further
ievaluation of mitigative measures in the leachate stream area.
