Groundwater protection : Tier 1 compliance point
Point ofcompliance=Point of exposure
(on site)
compliance point (receptor) are located closed to the source
3
Tier 1 On - Site Off - SiteLand Use: residential NA
Gw Use: residential NA
4Note. All on site exposure pathways have been selected with residential land use. This scenario provides risk based cleanup standards, which are protective for unrestricted, land use.
1. GwExposure
Select Residential receptor and Affected groundwater andAffected soils as source media
2. Surface SoilExposure
Select Residential receptor and select constructon Workerexposure
3. Air Exposure Select Residential receptor and Affected Soils, Groundwater, andSurface Soils as source media for outdoor Air and Indoor Air.Also select Construction Worker exposure for Outdoor Air.

Constituent of Concern
Select COCs: Select Add/Insert. Highlight Xylene (mixed Isomers) from the list of chemicals and choose Select. Also select Toluene ecc.
Rapresentative COC concentration: input directly the COC concentration data for GW and Soil or Click Claculate to enter Site Data.
9
Costituent of Concern: Enter Site Data, if there are different measure point. In this case RBCA can evaluate the mean, the maximum, or the UCL value, depending on wich is the best approximation.

• Which pathways controls the overall benzene RBSL for soil ?
Cleanup Standards. RBSL Soil
• What is the pathway specific RBSL for benzene for the Soil to indoor air Pathway? 0.015 mg/l
Soil leaching to gw

Main Screen 1. Which type of RBCA Analysis: select Tier 2. This allow calculation of SSTLbased on off-site receptors
2. RBCA Evaluation Process: Select Exposure Pathways.
ExposurePathways
1. Groundwater Exposure: set on-site receptor to None. Set off-site 1 to MCL.Set off-site 2 to S.W. (for Surface water discharge). Select swiming and fishconsumption for GW Discharge Water Exposure.
2. Gw Exposure: Under Distance to Gw receptor, enter 100 m for off-site 1 and200 m for off-site 2 for both affected groundwater and affected soils
3. Command and Options: Select Main Screen
Note: Transport models and Gw Parameters now require additional input. SlectTransport Models
Note: Select Set Units to change unit
