BACKGROUND AIR MONITORING FOR DRAKE CHEMICAL SUfrERFUND SFTE
DRAKE CHEMICAL SUPERFUND SITEBACKGROUND AIR QUALITY REPORT
1,0 INTRODUCTION
RUST International Inc. (RUST), working for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers(USAGE) on behalf of U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), is performing theremedial action clean-up of the Drake site located in Lock Haven, Pennsylvania. Inaccordance with USAGE Specification 13600,'Perimeter Air Monitoring, RUST shall submita report that describes in detail the air quality in the vicinity of the Drake site. In order togenerate the data necessary to write this Background Air Quality Report, RUST is requiredto monitor the concentration of contamination in the air at the Drake site by sampling that airfor 24 hours once every week~oruring a period of 2 months prior to onsite construction.RUST is also required to obtain and report this information in accordance with the approvedContractor Perimeter Air Sampling Plan (PASP) which explains in detail sampling andanalytical techniques, quality assurance/quality control,,sampling frequency, laboratoryselection, and sampling equipment including both time-integrated and real-time samplingequipment.
2.0 DRAKE CHEMICAL SUPERFUND SITE TARGET COMPOUND LIST (TCL)
" As identified in the PASP, specific target compounds are to be monitored. The targetcompounds fall within three basic classes: volatile organic compounds, semi-volatile organiccompounds, and paniculate matter/metals. Table 2-1 lists the volatile organic compounds,Table 2-2 lists the semi-volatile compounds and Table 2-3 lists the metals which are specifiedto be monitored.
3.0 MONITORING SITE LOCATION AND ACTIVITIES
Over the 8 week period from October 10, 1994 to December 5, 1994, air monitoringwas performed for volatile organics, semi-volatile organics, metals and particulate matter atthe Site. Sampling location is indicated in Figure 3-L One 24-hour time-integrated samplewas taken per week for volatile organics, semi-volatile organics and particulate/metals and asrequired for quality assurance purposes, a second set of samples were taken every otherweek, beginning with the first sampling event and sent to the USAGE designated QAlaboratory for analysis. Sampling dates, sample identification numbers, and laboratorynumbers are summarized in Table 3-1.
During each sampling event, notes were kept in log books for each sampling unit andfor the sampling event as a whole. Notes were kept of sampling operation and calibration,atmospheric conditions, any observed excursions of occurrences which might have had an
• effect on data. The notes from these log books are summarized in Table 3-2

4.0 ANALYTICAL RESULTS FOR BACKGROUND AIR MONITORING
As documented in the PASP, eight 24-hour sampling events were performed at theDrake site as required in Section 13600 Perimeter Air Monitoring, Section 4.2-BackgroundAir Quality. The monitoring involved, sampling and analysis of the site vicinity air forvolatile organics utilizing Compendium Method TO-14, semi-volatile organics utilizingCompendium Method TO-13, and the total suspended paniculate (TSP) matter/metals usingthe Federal Reference Method. Table 4-1 .outlines the analytical results for volatile organics,Table 4-2 for semi-volatile organics, and Table 4-3 for TSP matter and metals.
In general, the following observations can be made with regard to each pollutantcategory sampled during the background air monitoring. ;
Volatile Qrganics .
• Dichloromethane exceed the ATG value during the November 14, 1994 samplingevent;
• Toluene, benzene, xylenes, and di/tri-chlorobenzenes were detected at measurablelevels typical of urban area concentrations.

Semi-Volatile Qrganics
* FENAC was detected in seven of the eight sampling events;• Nitrobenzene was detected .in seven of the eight sampling events;• Benzo(a)pyrene was detected during two sampling events at or greater than ATG
value; and• AH othe semi-volatile organics on the TCL were detected at measurable levels
typical of urban area concentrations.
TSP/Metals
• TSP values observed were below EPA's National Ambient Air,Quality Standard(NAAQS) of 150 /*g/scm _ . _ . . . . . _ _ _ .
» AH metals were detected at measurable levels, but, none at or above thecorresponding ATG values.
5.0 QUALITY ASSURANCE (QA)/QUALITY CONTROL (QC)
5.1 Introduction
Data validation was performed on all data packages by the quality assurance officerand field personnel. Data validation involved a systematic review of the measurement datafor outliers and error detection and was performed at Levels 1, 2, and 3 as required in thePASP.
The laboratory and field records for each of the sampling events were audited todetermine compliance with established and documented standard operating procedures (SOPs)and requirements. For each submittal by sampling and analytical type, at least one sample'srecords were reconstructed to detect any systematic calculation problems; no mathematicalproblems were detected for any type of sampling or analysis. Following is a brief discussionof the Level 1 and 2 review.
5,2 Held Sampling
AH flows were determined to be within EPA guidelines associated with volatile,semi-volatile and total suspended paniculate (TSP) matter/metals. As identified in theCompendium and Federal Reference Methods, the following flow rates were maintained foreach of the 24-hour time integrated sample:
* Volatiles: 3-10 cc/min;» Semi-volatiies: 0.2-0.3 scm/min;• TSP/metals; 1.02-1.25 scm/min.
Single and multi-point flow checks were performed before and after each sampling event anddocumented on the Field Test Data Sheets,

5.3 Laboratory Analysis
5.3.1 VolatUes__ _
5.3.1.1 Volatile Organic Surrogate Compound Recovery. EPA Compendium MethodTO-14 does not require the use of surrogate compounds as part of the SUMMA® canister.sampling and analysis methodology. The method does .require, however, the certification ofcleanliness of each SUMMA® canister used in the monitoring program.
5,3:1,2 Canister Certification. All canisters and samplers were certified clean toEPA Compendium Method TO-14, containing <0,2 ppb of target volatile analytes prior tofield deployment.
5,3.1.3 -Trip Blank. Two trip blanks were performed during the backgroundsampling program. Trip blanks are canisters that are certified clean and are targeted as fieldsamples except that air is not sampled in the canister.
As illustrated in Table 5-1, laboratory analysis indicates that the average of the tripblanks contained volatile organics at or below the method detection limits for the DrakevolatileTCL. . . ... _..,..__! ,... ,..,_.,.'..:_._:__,_ ;:........
5.3.2 Semi-Volatiles
5.3.2.1-Pield Surrogate Recoveries for PAHs, Twp.field.surrogates at the 5 y.g levelwere spiked onto all adsorbent cartridge (PUF/XAD-2) prior to field deployment. They wereDlO-fluoranthene and D12-_benzp(a)pyrene. As identified in Table 5-2, all field surrogatesfell within EPA guidelines. The field surrogates assist in the determination of breakthrough,artifact formation and collection efficiency, of the sampling system.
The recoveries for the method blanks are similar. The trip blanks (method blanks)show consistent recoveries around 70 percent for DlO-fluoranthene but steadily decreasingrecoveries from around 100 percent to 50 percent for D12~benzo[a]pyrene. Because nosignificant difference in recoveries is detected between the trend of the two field surrogates,no degradation of surrogates in the field is suspected.
5.3.2.2 Laboratory Surrogate Recoveries for PAH. Twqjaboratory surrogates werespiked at the 5 /tg level .into both the. trip blanks and field samples before sample preparationand analysis. The laboratory surrogates were DIO-fluorene and DIO-pyrene. The laboratory
, surrogates provide information associated with extraction and analytical efficiency. Asidentified in Table 5-3, all laboratory surrogates fell within EPA guidelines. o
5.3.2.3 JField Surrogate Recovery for 4-ArninobiphenyI and 3.4-Dichlorophenylacetic• Acid. As identified in the PASP, 4-aminobiphenyl was selected as the best availablesurrogate for /3-naphthylamine. The 4-aminobiphenyl was selected because it contained anamino group attached to an aromatic ring system just like thej3-naphthylamine and is an EPAMethod 8270 target analyte. 2,4-dichlorophenylacetic acid (DCAA) was selected for the
