Subject: September 2013 Monthly Operations and Anaerobic Bioreactor Transition Report
Management of Migration Remedial Action ReSolve, Inc. Superfund Site
Dear Joe:
This letter presents a summary, for the month of September 2013, of the operations, maintenance, and monitoring activities conducted at the ReSolve, Inc. Superfund Site. It includes monthly operational data and information concerning transition activities for the Sustainability Enhancements, consisting of the anaerobic bioreactor (ABR) and solar photovoltaic systems.
I. General Facility Operations
The Management of Migration groundwater extraction system operated throughout September 2013 in Phase 5 of the ABR transition period. All eight extraction wells operated at their target flow rates (2 gallons per minute [gpm] for RW-6; 3 gpm for RW-2; and 5 gpm for RW-1, RW-3, RW-4, RW-5, RW-7, and RW-8), which total 35 gpm. The treatment system processed 1,517,600 gallons of groundwater during September 2013 and was down for 3 hours for maintenance activities. Additional details on the ABR transition program are provided in Section III of this report. Routine and non-routine maintenance activities are described in Sections V and VI of this report, respectively.
The phase separator was monitored weekly for dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL). Some precipitated metals were present in the phase separator, but no DNAPL was observed. The filter press was not operated during September 2013. There was one half-full 1-cubic-yard container of dewatered sludge on-site as of 30 September.
II. Facility Performance Monitoring
The groundwater extraction and treatment system operated in compliance with the Consent Decree during the month of September 2013. Sampling of the treatment facility effluent was conducted on 3 September, in accordance with the requirements of the Field Operations Support Plan (FOSP) and Transition and Monitoring Plan. For the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) analysis, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 105, 680/8270 SIM was used instead of EPA Method 8082, which is typically used to analyze samples from the ReSolve Site for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). This method was used in order to provide a

reporting limit less than 0.004 micrograms per liter (µg/L), the NPDES Equivalency Discharge Limit for total PCBs. The analytical results of the monthly effluent monitoring and the process monitoring of the ABR system are attached in Tables 1 through 4.
Continuous monitoring of the effluent pH indicated no exceedances of the pH discharge criteria (6.5 to 8.3). Figure 1 is a graph of the effluent pH for the month of September 2013.
Effluent toxicity testing was conducted on 16 through 20 September. The laboratory report for the toxicity testing is provided in Attachment I, and the results are summarized below. There were no exceedances of the acute and chronic effluent toxicity criteria for the Site.
Toxicity Test Criterion Result
48-Hour Acute Median lethal concentration (LC50) must be equal to or greater than 100% effluent.
Passed. – The LC50 exceeded 100% effluent for both species (fathead minnow and daphnia).
7-Day Chronic The Chronic No Observed Effect Concentration (C-NOEC) must be equal to or greater than 17% effluent.
Passed. – The C-NOEC was 100% effluent for survival and growth of both species (fathead minnow and daphnia).
III. Anaerobic Bioreactor System Performance and Monitoring
ABR Bed Flow Restriction
Operation of the degassing membrane system, which commenced in August 2013, continued throughout September 2013 in the configuration shown in Figure 2. The membrane continued to provide highly degassed influent to the ABR beds (-44 to -35 mm Hg total dissolved gas [TDG] as shown in Table 4), which resulted in further reductions in the headloss in ABR-1 and a stabilizing of the headloss in ABR-2. The headloss in ABR-2 has been reduced sufficiently to allow ABR-2 to process the full 35-gpm treatment system flow rate.
Figure 3 is a graph of the headloss in the ABR beds, normalized to flow (in feet of headloss per gpm). Figure 3 shows a significant reduction in the headloss in ABR-1 commencing in August 2013 and continuing throughout the month of September 2013. As of 31 September, ABR-1 was processing 12.5 gpm at 3.04 feet of water headloss, a very significant improvement in comparison to conditions (7 gpm at 4.5 feet of water headloss) prior to treatment of the ABR-1 influent by the degassing membrane. Because the degassing membrane has performed reliably and resulted in significant headloss reductions in both ABR beds, a second degassing membrane will be procured and installed during October 2013. The purpose of the second degassing membrane is to provide degassing of the effluent from ABR-1, which is laden with dissolved gas (21 to 43 mm Hg TDG as shown in Table 4) and, thereby, prevent gases dissolved in the effluent from ABR-1 from being transported to, and possibly having a negative impact on, ABR-2. It will also provide desirable redundancy for the dissolved gas removal process.

ABR System Performance Monitoring
Graphs of the four most predominant VOCs in the treatment plant influent (cis-1,2dichloroethene [cDCE], vinyl chloride [VC], 1,1,1-trichloroethane [111TCA], and 1,1-dichloroethane [11DCA]) are provided in Figures 4 through 7, respectively. Figure 8 shows the concentration of ethene, which is a product of the reductive dechlorination of VC, in the effluent from ABR-1 and ABR-2. The VOC data are tabulated in Table 2.
The data continue to show very good breakdown of cDCE, VC, and 111TCA in the ABR beds. In September 2013, the concentrations of those three compounds were all less than the Discharge Limits in the effluent of the ABR beds (upstream of the polishing carbon). For example, on 3 September, the 340 micrograms per liter (µg/L) of cDCE in the ABR influent were reduced to 1.9 µg/L and 15 µg/L in the effluent from ABR-1 and ABR-2, respectively. For VC, the 150 µg/L in the ABR influent on 3 September were reduced to 1.3 µg/L and 21 µg/L in the effluent from ABR-1 and ABR-2, respectively.
The concentration of 11DCA has been higher in the ABR effluent than in the ABR influent because of the very effective dechlorination of 111TCA and the limited dechlorination of 11DCA. Reductive dechlorination of 11DCA typically does not occur until the other chlorinated VOCs present in the ABR influent have been substantially removed. Some reductive dechlorination of 11DCA is occurring in both beds, and the concentration of 11DCA in the effluent from ABR-1 and ABR-2 is generally trending downward. On 3 September, the concentration of 11DCA in the effluent from ABR-1 was 15 µg/L, which is less than the Discharge Limit (22 µg/L) for that compound. The concentration of 11DCA in the effluent from ABR-2 (28 µg/L on 3 September) has also been trending downward but, as of 3 September, was still greater than the Discharge Limit. The polishing carbon provided the treatment necessary to reduce the 11DCA concentration to less than the Discharge Limit. The concentration of 11DCA will be monitored closely, and changeout of the polishing carbon will be conducted if necessary in order to prevent an exceedance of the 22 µg/L Monthly Average Discharge Limit for 11DCA.
IV. Solar Photovoltaic System
The solar photovoltaic (PV) system has operated continuously since starting commercial operation on 21 February 2012, and has generated a maximum of 127 kilowatts AC during midday when the sun is shining. The solar PV system generated 18,103 kilowatt-hours (KWH) of electricity during September 2013. As of 30 September 2013, the solar PV system has generated a total of 337,753 KWH since 21 February 2012, the official start date of the solar system.

V. Scheduled Preventive Maintenance
The submersible well pumps were removed from the extraction wells for cleaning as follows:
RW-3 9 September
RW-7 27 September
After removal from the wells, the pump heads were detached from the motor and replaced with a clean pump head. The dirty pump heads were cleaned and prepared for reuse. The pipelines from RW-3 and RW-7 to the treatment plant were cleaned using jet-rodding procedures on 9 and 27 September, respectively.
The individual extraction well flow rates were calibrated on 25 September. The pipeline from the Influent/Equalization Tank (T-1) to the pretreatment carbon system was cleaned using jet-rodding procedures on 4 September. The effluent pipeline was cleaned using jet rodding procedures on 20 September.
The degassing membrane was cleaned using a muriatic acid solution once weekly during the month of September 2013. The cleaning process removes iron fouling from the membrane, thereby maximizing the degassing performance of the membrane. Scheduled maintenance activities conducted during September 2013 that did not result in facility downtime were conducted in accordance with the Operations and Maintenance Manual. Documentation of all maintenance activities is maintained on-site.
VI. Unscheduled Maintenance/Issue Resolution
There were no unscheduled maintenance activities during the month of September 2013.
VII. Materials Usage and Spare Parts Inventory
Chemical consumption for the month of September 2013 was as follows:
Sodium Hydroxide (25%) 57 gallons
Table 5 is a comparison of monthly chemical use at the Site for September 2013 and the previous 24-month period. Documentation of chemical use since startup of the groundwater treatment system in 1998 is maintained on-site. There were no changes to the spare parts inventory during September 2013. A copy of the spare parts inventory is maintained on-site.
VIII. Environmental Performance Monitoring
Wetlands soil moisture monitoring
The annual Cornell Pond fishing derby and biannual fish tissue sampling event.

Mr. Joe Charbonnier AECOM -5- 18 December 2013
IX. Projected Activities for October 2013
Continued performance monitoring and optimization of the membrane degassing system. As the headloss decreases in ABR-1, the flow rate of process water through that bed will be increased.
Procurement and installation of a second degassing membrane to provide treatment of the ABR-1 effluent before it is processed through ABR-2. Installation of the second membrane will allow the system to be configured in partial series operation, with less than the full 35-gpm flow rate being processed through ABR-1 and the full 35-gpm flow rate being processed through ABR-2.

TOXICOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF A TREATED GROUNDWATER
September 2013
ReSolve Superfund Site Treatment Facility North Dartmouth, Massachusetts
1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report presents the results of toxicity tests completed on a series of treated groundwater
samples collected from the ReSolve Superfund Site Treatment Facility, North Dartmouth, Massachusetts.
Samples were provided by W eston Solutions, Inc., Concord, New Hampshire. Testing was based on programs
and protocols developed by the US EPA (2002) with exceptions as noted by US EPA Region I (US EPA
Region 1, 2007) and involved conducting modified acute and chronic toxicity tests with the freshwater species,
Ceriodaphnia dubia and Pimephales promelas. Testing was performed at EnviroSystems, Incorporated (ESI),
Hampton, New Hampshire in accordance with the provisions of TNI Standards (2009).
Acute toxicity tests involve preparing a series of test concentrations by diluting test samples with
control water. Groups of test organisms are exposed to each test concentration and a control for a specified
period. The mortality data for each concentration can be used to calculate (by regression) the median lethal
concentration or LC-50, defined as the concentration of effluent which kills half of the test organisms. Samples
with a high LC-50 value are less likely to cause significant environmental impacts. The data can also be
analyzed to determine the no effect level. This Acute No Observed Effect Concentration (A-NOEC) is defined
as the highest tested effluent concentration which causes no significant mortality. Chronic toxicity tests
measure sublethal effects, exposing test organisms to samples during a sensitive period in the life cycle.
Minnow chronic tests measure survival and growth (weight) during the first seven days post hatch; daphnid
chronic tests measure survival and juvenile production. Using Analysis of Variance techniques to evaluate the
data, it is possible to determine the lowest tested concentration that had an effect (C-LOEC) and the highest
tested concentration where no effect (C-NOEC) was observed.
2.0 MATERIALS AND METHODS
2.1 General Methods
Toxicological and analytical protocols used in this program follow procedures primarily designed by the EPA to provide standard approaches for the evaluation of chronic toxicological effects of discharges on aquatic organisms, and for the analysis of water samples. See Section 4.0 for a list of references.
2.2 Test Species
C. dubia were maintained in laboratory water at 25±1°C with a photoperiod of 16:8 hours light:dark. Cultures are fed daily with a yeast/trout chow/Cerophyll or alfalfa leaves (YTC) mixture supplemented with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (algae) (EPA 2002). Adults on a brood board were isolated 24 hours prior to test start and allowed to reproduce for 8 hours.
W hen necessary, P. promelas were acclimated to approximate test conditions prior to use in the assay. Organisms were transferred to test chambers using a large bore glass tube, minimizing the amount of water added to the test solution.
2.3 Groundwater, Receiving W ater and Laboratory W ater
Groundwater and receiving water sample collection information is provided in Table 1. Samples were stored at 4°C and warmed to 25±1°C prior to preparing test solutions. Laboratory water was synthetic reconstituted water prepared at ESI according to protocol (EPA 2002). This water has been used to successfully culture freshwater organisms since 1992.
Total residual chlorine (TRC) was measured by amperometric titration (MDL 0.02 mg/L) in the groundwater and diluent samples prior to use in the assays. Samples with �0.02 mg/L TRC were dechlorinated using sodium thiosulfate (EPA 2002). If chlorine was present in the sample, a control assay

using laboratory water treated with an equal amount of sodium thiosulfate was run concurrently with the assay, and data can be found in Appendix A. If sample pH measured
