.3. DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONS

Contaminated soils stockpiled at Eielson AFB will be treated by landfarming and otherbioremnediation technologies to remove petroleum hydrocarbons. The sources of thesestockpiled sails include the Alpha-Delta fuel distribution underground piping system, Tank300 bulk JP4 fuel storage, UST removals, and soil excavated from a heating oil tank removalat the wastewater treatment facility. Sources of contaminated soils, previouscharacterization, and planned site activities are fully described in EA's work plan for theproject, entitled "Work Plan for Bioremnediation of Contaminated Soils at Eielson Air Force

Base, Alaska" (May 1992).

The primary bioremnediation activities conducted under this project will be performed in thecontaminated soil storage area (CSSA) adjacent to the Asbestos Landfill (Figures 1 and 2in Appendix 4). The treatment areas will be located on land that was previously used as apart of the main base landfill (1103) and is currently the subject of RI/FS investigations.

The landfill is presently covered with a layer of fly ash. Construction of the land treatmentfacilities will include placement of a 8 inch - 10 inch layer of clean "buffer" soils betweenthe 1103 surface and the soils to be treated. No RCRA contamination has been found inI.the ash.

The surface topography in the vicinity of the project area is relatively flat. A gravel road* provides access to the area. Presently, there are stockpiled soils on both the north and

south sides of the gravel road. LF03 is located on the south side of the road (Figure 2 inAppendix 4).

Land treatment is a bioremediation process in which contaminated soils are excavated andspread in a relatively thin layer to enhance aeration, volatilization, biodegradation, andphotolysis. Petroleum-contaminated soils can typically be remediated within three monthsto two years by using land treatment technologies.

For this bioremediation project, three types of land treatment will be evaluated:I~1 landspreading, two variations of landfarming, and cell bioremediation for a total of four

treatment methods. The basic principles and objectives of each treatment method aresimilar. The methods differ in how initial contaminant concentrations and applied soilamendments are initially set and maintained for the duration of the treatment, and how thetreatment facilities are constructed. Three treatment facilities will be constructed. Thethree types of treatment facilities are described below.

3EA Engineering Science, and Technology Eielson AFB11206 11\~ 1230 bioremnees&h Site Safety and Health Plan

3.1 Landspreadlng

Landspreading involves spreading of contaminated soils in a thin (8 inch) uniform layer onan unlined soil surface. Once the soil is spread, contaminknts undergo natural degradationwithout any enhancement. It is strictly a passive treatment system. Construction of thefacility will be limited to initial grading to remove surface debris, construction of a soilcontainment berm, and laying down a layer of clean soil on top of the natural soil to act asa buffer layer between contaminated soils and the existing soil surface.

tandspreading is well suited for large volumes of low to moderately-contaminated soil,particularly in situations where volatilization is the primary mechanism for contaminantremoval and large areas of land are available. However, higher initial contaminantconcentrations may extend the required time to achieve target cleanup levels by anunacceptable amount, and the cantaminated soils may be deficient in nutrients to promotea sufficient rate of biological activity.

3.2 Landfarming

aLandfarming is similar to landspreading except that the applied soil layer is managed toSenhance optimum microorganisms growth conditions. This results in an increased rate of

contaminant degradation and shorter time to achieve target cleanup levels. Managementincludes application of commercial fertilizer (i.e., nitrogen and phosphorus) as needed toprovide nutrients for microbial growth, irrigation to maintain optimum soil moisture contentand tilling to aerate the soil and mix tle contaminants with the native microorganisms.These microbial growth enhancements allow for increased depth of soil in the landfarmingunit (e.g., up to 12 inches). Fertilizer application rates are dependent on initial soil nutrientlevels, and watering rates are a function of natural precipitation and evaporation.

3.3 Cell Bioremediation

Cell bioremediation is similar to landfarmaing in terms of microorganisms and operationalparameters, but the facility design includes an impermeable liner system to prevent leachatemigration. This type of land treatment is designed to accommodate higher concentration

wastes and situations where contamination of underlying soil by leachate is a concern. Allother operational parameters, including soil amending, watering, and tilling, are identicalto landfarniing.

4E4 Engineering Science, and Technolo& Eielson AFE11206 1) 1230 bioremed~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

Cell bioremediation provides a nearly totally effective safeguard against migration of*contaminants to underlying soil and groundwater. Therefore, this land treatment method

is appropriate for soils containing highly mobile contaminants in high concentrations.

4. HAZARD EVALUATION

* 4.1 Chemical Hazards

Based on previous soil sampling JP4 jet fuel is believed to be the most likely contaminant* in the stockpiled soils at Eielson AFB. Other potential contaminants include gasoline,

diesel, and used motor oils. Although variable in composition, these petroleum products canbe characterized in a general manner. Jet fuels (Jet A, Jet B, and JP4) are composed ofparaffins (alkanes) in the Cs to C20 range, less than 25 percent aromatics, and very lowlevels of olefins (alkenes). Gasoline is approximately 80 percent paraffins in the Cs to C14

* range, 6 percent olefins, and 14 percent aromatics; additives (e.g., ethylene dichloride,ethylene dibromide, tetraethyl lead, and tetramethyl lead) are sometimes present in smallamounts. Diesel contains paraffins and cycloparaffins in the C11 to C24 range and very lowlevels of aromatic hydrocarbons. Motor oils are composed of long-chained hydrocarbons.Used oil is difficult to characterize because used oil tanks may receive more than just usedmotor oils; compounds which are routinely associated with used oils include chlorinatedhydrocarbons, lead, cadmium, chromium, and zinc.

Although the composition of gasoline varies, the acute health effects of exposure arereported to be similar for all blends. Exposure to gasoline can occur by inhalation anddermal contact. Inhaled gasoline generally acts as an anesthetic and mucous membraneirritant. Intoxication, headaches, blurred vision, dizziness, and nausea are the mostcommonly observed symptoms of overexposure to gasoline. Diesel fuel is not sufficiently-volatile to constitute an acute inhalatiom hazard in unconfined spaces.•It is not readilyabsorbed through intact skin, but it can penetrate abraded skin. Jet fuels have volatilitycharacteristics between gasoline and diesel, but generally do not constitute an acuteinhalation hazard. The effects of acute overexposure to jet fuels are dizziness, headache,nausea, palpitation, and pressure in the chest. Dermal contact with gasoline, diesel, or jetfuel can dry the skin, which can lead to skin irritation, infection, and dermatitis.

o The risks and hazards associated with the major classes of petroleum hydrocarbons presentin jet fuels, gasoline and diesel are described below:

* PARAFFINS (alkanes) include n-butane, n-hexane, isobutane, isopentane andcyclopentane. There is no evidence that these compounds are mutagenic (i.e.,chemicals which cause changes of the genetic material in reproductive cells,

6EA Engineering& Science, and Technology Eielson AFE11206 11\~ 1230 biorerned~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

resulting in deformed offspring), teratogenic (substances which causedeformities in unborn offspring that have already been conceived), orcarcinogenic (substances which cause cancer). Exposures to hexane can causeperipheral nerve damage. In general, these compounds have low humantoxicity and the potential toxicity tends to decrease with increasing carbonchain length. Cycloparaffins are less toxic than their equivalent straight-chainparaffins.

S OLEFINS (alkenes) include trans-2-pentene and 2-methyl-2-butene. Thesecompounds have little inherent human toxicity, although adverse health effectscan result from exposure to high levels of some olefins.

* AROMATICS of greatest concern are benzene, toluene, xylenes, and

ethylbenzene. Benzene is a human carcinogen, but the others have not beenidentified as carcinogens. Adverse effects of the aromatics include renalfailure, liver damage, central nervous system damage, and respiratory tract

damage. Benzene and other aromatics can be absorbed through therespiratory tract and the skin, so both inhalation and dermal contact arepotential routes of exposure.

Of the chemicals potentially found in used oil. tetrachloroethene (perchloroethene. PCELtrichloroethene (trichloroethvlene. TCE). cadmium. chromium. and lead are probably theones most likely to be encountered that have significant health effects. Except for lead, allthese compounds are known or suspected-human carcinogens. The degradation of TCE andPCE in the environment may create vinyl chloride, a potent human carcinogen. Symptomsof acute overexposure to PCE, TCE and vinyl chloride include jaundice, headache, irritationof the eyes, nose and throat, nausea, flushing of the face and neck, visual distortion,vomiting, cardiac arrhythmia, weakness, abdominal pain, and dizziness. Both inhalationand dermal contact are potential exposure routes for these compounds.

Overexposure to lead can result in central nervous system damage. kidney and blooddamnage. and other effects. The symptoms of overexposure to inorganic lead are lassitude,insomnia, abdominal pain, and constipation. Inhalation is the major route of exposure.

7EA Engineering. Science, and Technology EBelson AFE112061111230 biorenzed~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

.The symptoms of overexposure toscadmium are chest pain and tightness, headache, muscleaches, nausea, diarrhea, coughing, chills, and difficulty In breathing. Inhlatio~n is themajor route of exposure.

The symptoms of overexposure to chromium are respira tory irritation and skin irritation.* Both dermal contact and inhalation are potential routes of exposure.

* 4.2 Flammability and Explosion Hazards

* Flammability is a primary hazard associated with petroleum hydrocarbons. The lowerexplosive limits of jet fuel, gasoline, and diesel are 0.6 - 1.3 percent (6,000 - 13,000 ppm),

{. 1.4 percent (14,000 ppm), and 0.9 percent (9,000 ppm), respectively.

423 Underground Obstacles

Underground obstacles do not appear to be a concern due to the nature of thebioremediation operations. Surface scraping, berming, and removing dirt will constitute the

*majority of the earth moving activities.

4.4 Heavy Equipment Hazards

Heavy construction equipment such as bulldozers and front loaders will be used during thestockpiling operations. Accidents with 'this equipment can cause serious injury. STOP,LOOK, and LISTEN before moving about active construction equipment. Make sureoperators know your location at all times.

4.5 Noise and Dust Hazards

Traffic, heavy equipment, and machinery operating in the vicinity can create high levels ofnoise and airborne dust. Exposure to high noise levels can cause health effects ranging fromdiscomfort (short exposure times) to a permanent ringing in the ears and hearing loss (long,continued exposure).

Inhalation of dust can result in increased exposure to soil-bound chemicals and.pneumoconiosis. Overexposure may occur when the dust becomes visible in normal light.

8EA Engineering, Science, and Technology Eielson AFE11206.111 1230 bioremned~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

. Symptoms of potential overexposure to dust are congestion or the nasal passages andirritation of the eyes and respiratory system.

First Aid - If severe exposure to noise or dust occurs,remove person from noise/dust' area. GETMEDICAL A¶ITENTJON. If noise exposure ismild, hearing protection should be worn toprevent severe damage. GET MEDICALAITENTION IF OVEREXPOSURE TO DUSTOR NOISE IS SEVERE.

4.6 Weather and Temperature Hazards

Soil sampling will be conducted outdoors in various weather conditions during the springand summer months. The field team may work in warm or possibly hot temperatures, whichcan result in heat stress. Work may also occur during rain or unseasonably coldtemperatures, which can contribute to hypothermia and discomfort.

,*The symptoms of beat stress and heat exhaustion are pale, clammy skin, profuseperspiration, extreme tiredness or weakness, cramps of the limbs and/or abdominalmuscles, and irritability.

First Aid - If a worker shows signs of heat exhaustion, theyshould rest in a cool'(but not cold) location, withfeet elevated. If the person is conscious, give 1/2glass of water every 15 minutes, as tolerated.

If heat stress is ignored it can progress to heat stroke, a life threatening condition. Heatstroke is characterized by red or flushed skin, hot skin, dry skin, lack of perspiration,dizziness, headache, nausea, rapid pulse and unconsciousness.

First Aid - VWhen heat stroke is suspected, the patient'stemperature should be cooled as quickly aspossible by wetting down clothes or coveringthem with moist sheets or towels. TREAT FOR

9EA Engineeding Scien ce, and Technology Eielson AFB112061111230 bioremed~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

SHOCK AND GET HELP. Do not give anything

by mouth.

Hypothermia can occur when the air temperature is low',-when there's a potential for windchill, and during wet weather. Hypothermia is a life-threatening condition. The symptomsof hypothermia are sleepiness, numbness, failing eyesight, lack of coordinated movement,staggering and unconsciousness.

First Aid - Exposure to cold temperatures should be immediately terminated forany worker when severe shivering becomes evident. When entering a

* ~~~~~~heated shelter, the outer layer of clothing shall be removed and the* ~~~~remainder of the clothing loosened to permit sweat evaporation, or

have a change of dry work clothing provided. Warm the body slowly.If the person is fully conscious, give them warm non-alcoholic drinks.

S. EXPOSURE LIMITS AND WARNINGS

Detectable amounts of benzene and some other chemicals known to cause cancer, birthdefects, or other reproductive harm may be found in and around the facilities where soilsampling is to be conducted. Adherence to the safety and health procedures and standardsafety practices addressed here will minimize the potential for exposure to these chemicals.

* The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) established arecommended Threshold Limit Value (TLV) for gasoline of 300 ppm (a TLV is a time-weighted average concentration for a normal 8-hour workday and a 40-hour workweek, to

* which nearly all workers may be exposed day after day without adverse effects). Further,ACGIH recommends that an airborne concentration of 500 ppm gasoline not be exceededfor even short periods of time (i.e., 15 minutes). EA Engineering, Science, and Technologyrecommends a TIN of 10 ppm for both gasoline and diesel. The U.S. Occupational Safetyand Health Agency (OSHA) has established an 8-hour Time Weighted Average ExposureLimit (TWA) of 300 ppm for gasoline.

* OSHA's PEL standard for benzene is 1 ppmn, however gasoline stations have been exempted*from this requirement. Other applicable PELs are: 200 ppm toluene, 100 ppmn xylenes, 100

ppm ethylbenzene, and 500 ppm hexane. The PEL for nuisance dust is 10 mg/rn. SeeAppendix 2 for additional chemical contaminants of potential concern.

6. ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD MONITORING

6.1 Organic Vapor Monitoring

At the beginning of the day and approximately every -30 minutes during the day, the site- health and safety supervisor will measure the total organic vapor (TOV) concentration in

the breathing zone (the breathing zone is approximately 1 foot above and 1 foot below the* level of the nose). An Organic Vapor Analyzer (OVA) utilizing a flame ionization detector

(FIT)) will be used and the monitoring results will be recorded in the field notes. If theTOV level increases above the background level, and levels approach the TLV or PEL for

I- any of the suspected contaminants, the Site Safety and Health Supervisor must determinewhether the level of personal protective equipment and/or frequency of monitoring shouldbe increased, and must notify site personnel immediately.

PERSONAL PROTECT-IVE EQUIPMENT (i.e., RESPIRATORS) MUST BE WORN IFBREATHING ZONE CONCENTRATIONS OF CHEMICALS EXCEED THETHRESHOLD LIMIT VALUES OR PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS.

i.The calibration of the OVA will be checked at the beginning of each day of use. Ifappropriate, the power source of the instrument (e.g., rechargeable batteries) will bechecked the day before use.

* 6.2 Flammability and Explosion Hazards

The TOV concentration must be measu'red in the vicinity of the contaminated soils atground level with the OVA at regular intervals. Results will be recorded in the field notes.

I If the TOV level is below 10 percent of the lower explosive limit (LEL) for suspectedcontaminants, sampling operations may continue.

If the TOV concentration is between 10 percent and 25 percent of the LEL (approximately700 to 1750 ppm for jet fuel). sampling may continue with caution and with increasedmonitoring.

*IF THE CONCENTRATION OF TOTAL ORGANIC VAPORS EXCEEDS 25 PERCENTOF THE LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT (approximately 1750 ppm for jet fuel), SAMPLING 4ACTIVITES MUST CEASE AND ALL PERSONNEL MUST WITHIDRAW FROM THEAREA.

13E4 Engineeding Science, and Technology Eielson AFB11206.11\ 1230 bioremed~s&Jh Site Safety and Health Plan

7. SAFETY MEASURES AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

7.1 Traffic Hazards

Traffic hazards are generally expected to be minimal during the bioremediation phase ofthe EAFB project. However, when potential traffic hazards exist, bafflers must be used todemarcate the work zone. Standard traffic cones are generally not adequate due to theirlow vertical profile; the taller, 28-inch high cones should be used. Optionally, warning flagsand barricade tape can be used with the cones, If pits or holes are left open during non-working hours, they must be adequately decked or barricaded.

7.2 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Initially, Level D protective equipment and clothing should be used:

MANDATORY

* Nitrile or solvex gloves when handling soil.

0 Steel-toed shoes

* Hard hat

* Safety glasses or face shield

OPTIONA

* Cotton/polyester coveralls or tyvek suit

0 Hearing protection (ear plugs or ear muffs)

E4 Engineefing Science, and Technology 14Lielton AFE1120611 \1230 bioremed~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

If the TOV concentration increases in the breathing zone to greater than 10 ppm, or above* a chemical-specific TLV, the PPE should escalate to Level C. The additional equipment

needed for Level C protection includes:

*Air-purifying respirator with combination organic vapor filter and high-efficiency particle filter (HEPA) (FIELD PERSONNEL MUST BEPROPERLY FIT-TESTED FOR RESPIRATORS PRIOR TO BEGINNINGFIELD WORK)

* Saran-coated tyvek coveralls

* Boot covers

7.3 Other Safety Equipment

The following safety equipment must be present on the site at all times:

6 ABC-type Fire Extinguisher.

* Eye Wash Kit.

* First Aid Kit.

* Drinking Water.

Personnel must be trained in the proper use of all safety equipment.

7.4 Decontamination

Contaminated PPE will be placed in appropriate containers for disposal. NondisposablePPE will be washed with Trisodium Phosphate detergent, or similar solution, and rinsed withwater. All monitoring equipment will be cleaned according to instrument instructions.

15EA Engineeuin& Science, and Technology Eielson AFB11206. 11\~ 1230 bioremned~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

j7.5 Work Zones

Optimally, the exclusion zone should encompass at least the area within 100 feet of activeremediation. This area may have to be changed based on site conditions, but always willbe made as large as possible. The exclusion zone shodild be clearly demarcated by yellowwarning tape, barriers and/or cones.

7.6 Training

Site personnel should have successfully completed a 40-hour Hazardous Waste OperationsTraining Course, including CPR and first aid. Training for respirator use and maintenancemust be completed prior to field work. All EA personnel working at the EAFB stockpilesoil site will have completed the appropriate training; training certificates are contained inAppendix 3. The Site Safety and Health Supervisor has completed the 8-hour supervisortraining course.

7.7 Safe Work Practices

i* ~Smoking, eating, drinking, and chewing either tobacco or gum is prohibited in the exclusionzone.

Prior to initiating work at the site, the site health and safety supervisor must identify thenearest sanitation facility.

Potential ignition sources must be minimized. EA and subcontractor vehicles must not beparked in locations which block fire hydrants, access to emergency equipment, or exits frombuildings.

Site personnel must wash hands and face prior to leaving the site. If drinking water is notavailable at the site, potable water must be provided.

Prescription drugs must not be taken unless specifically approved by a physician whounderstands the nature of the work exposure.

* First aid treatment will be administered only by trained personnel.

16E4 Engineering Science, and Technotov' Eielson AFE11206.11 1230 bioremed~s&h Site Safety and Health Plan

When respirators are required, facial hair that interferes with the face-to-facepiece seal mustbe trimmed or removed.

Contact lenses are not permitted.

Loose clothing, including dangling hoods, belts, and cords will not be worn within theexclusion zone,

During hot or cold weather, regular rest breaks should be taken to avoid temperature-related stress. Non-alcoholic beverages should be consumed regularly to avoid dehydration.
