GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: The US Army Corps of Engineers, Seattle District is seeking contractors that can perform subsurface explorations using rotosonic drilling technology to be performed at a Superfund Site in Stockton, California. The work will consist of drilling, sampling, and well installation services with the goal of installation of two 8-inch deep groundwater monitoring wells. Services include subsurface drilling using a rotosonic drilling rig to approximately 265 feet depth, groundwater grab sampling through temporary drill casing, well installation, well development, and optional boring decommissioning pending groundwater grab sampling results. The contractor shall provide documentation supporting well installation work including but not limited to State of California well installation permits and well completion reports.

SITE DESCRIPTION: The project site is on a 29-acre site in Stockton, California. For a number of years, a company operated at the site chemically treating wood products in pressure cylinders with various preservation solutions containing creosote, pentachlorophenol (PCP), arsenic, copper, chromium, and zinc. Solvents or carriers for these preservatives reportedly included petroleum based fuels such as fuel oil kerosene and diesel, butane and ether. The chemicals of concern (COC) identified for the site are PCP, carcinogenic polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (cPAH), arsenic, dioxins/furans and naphthalene. Dioxins/furans are believed to have originated as manufacturing impurities contained in the PCP solution.
