The State of Florida, as represented by the Ficrida Department of Environmental Recpulation (FDER),. has been the support agency diiring the Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study process for the Reeves Southeastern aite. In accordance with 40 CFR ."jOQ '"-30, FDER, 'd . th'- support agency, has provided input during thiii- process. B - L: onn comments received fr :'. '')ER, it is expected thet cor.j:ar-.-iice will be iorthcoming; howciver, a formal letter of concurrence has not yet been received.

ASSESSMENT OF TKE SITE

Actual or threatened releases of hazardous substances from the site, if not addressed by implementing the response action selected in this ROD, may present an imminent and substantial endangerment to public health, welfare, or the environment.

DESCRIPTION OF THE REMEDY

This operable unit is the - J-rst of two operable units planned for the site. The first operable unit for this site will involve the remediation of the soils/sediment on the site. This action will address the principal threat by solidifying/stabilizing the contaminated soils/sediment.

The major components of the selected remedy include:

o Excavation cf approximately 6,000 cubic yards of contaminated soils/sediment

o Ex-situ solidification/stabilization of contaminated soils/sediment

o Onsite disposal of solidified/stabilized material above the water table and capping.

The area south of the Reeves site is generally u.idi^vcloped, but does encompass about 4 00 acres owned by Hillsborouqh County t Y - : " contains a wastev/ater treatment plant, a solid waste resource r.': ...' tacility and an area des;'mated as the potential location c . . .-.' jail,. Th';rri is no realu^ .itial development in the immadiat'': vicinity tl'o nearest being .25 miles east of the SEW facility. According to the Official 2oning Atlas for Hillsborough County (1985), the Reeves, Peak Oil and Bay Drums properties are all currently zoned for light manufacturing. Ali o t this .information would indicate that it is unlikely that the future use of the property wDuid include residential development.

The largest building, on the SSG f&cility is whsre commercial steei products are pra-trea,tad a.nd galvanized. There is aiso a small office build.ing and maintenar::s shed, A 300 gallon tank situated in a small rectangular ~.-.ea in the northwest corner of the maintenance shed wa.g used in the 1960s as a wastewater catch basin during electroplating. Two inactive liquid v;aste percolation/evaporation ponds are located in the north-central part of the property area. A waste-water pretreatment facility and a double-lined storage basin for settled solids are located on the northeast portion of the SEG.

The largest building on the SEW facility is where steel wire is drawn, weaved into chain link fence, pre-treated and galvanized. The smaller building on the facility is an office building. There are three former percolation/evaporation ponds: one on the

Discharge into these ponds ceased in 1980 when £Sff began using its v,w.3tewater pretreatment program. Discharge from this facility a.lso goes into the locel POTW. . .

Xh^ U-.S., 'SPA t'onductiHC'. e Tt.ii; .'.nvestig.'stion in i99i that .' . indicated elevated itistal levels in surface vjatsr and groundwater at the SEG facility. Subsequently, the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation (FDER^ conducted a survey of the types and magnitude of chemical contamination at SEG; this survey resulted in the 1982 placement of SEG on EPA's National Priorities List (NPL). Reeves contracted in 1985 with CH2MHill for a terrain conductivity survcy utilizing electromagnetic induction technology to be performed at both SEW and SEG. The results in.dicated a possible groundwater contamination problem in the surficial aquifer underneath both facilities.

In 1988, the Reeves Southeastern Corporation and a group of potentially responsible partie.-i (PRPs) for the adjacent Peak Oil site signed individual Administrative Orders of Consent (AOCs) to

The general topography is flat. The land use in the area is either industrial or undeveloped, with the nearest single family residential area being 0.25 miles east of the SEW facility. Topographically, surface elevations on the SEG facility range from 36 feet above mean sea level (MSL) at the southern boundary to 2 6 feet above MSL on the northern boundary. The southern portion of the SEW facility slopes gradually toward the south and southwest tcward small wetland areas. The area around the two facilities is relatively flat.

o Organic contaminants are present in soils and sediments on the western edge of SEW only. Review of the combined Reeves Phase 1 and 2 sediment and soils data for SEW, Phase 1 and 2 data from the Peak Oil Site Source Characterization RI, available deeds, boundary survey information and available aerial photographs and the absence of significant petrochemicail usage in the SEW operation process indicates that the oily material on the western edge of SEW is probably associated with past operations at the adjacent Peak Oil site.

o Remediation of sediments and soils for organic constituents along the western edge of SEW will be addressed in the Peak Oil Site Source Characterization Feasibility Study (Peak FS). The Peak Gil PRFs have acknowledged the need to include these materials in the Peak FS.

No PCBs are p.tG.3ent.in the; surticial aquifer groundw.iter samples. Eight of the 23 detected inorganic species are coni.iion constituents normally found in soil and present in most groundwater samples. .Most VOCs were detected in areas close to thc Bay Dr-oms and Peak Oii Sites (which is con.si! .tent with the site source findings). Eight inorganic c.-jnt:::ituents in the surficial aquifer are found tn amounts exceeding federal m-<;:'mun! contaminant levels (KCLs) or Florida MCLs.

Sixteen SVOCs were also detected at relatively low concentrations in Well F-2 and Well F-3.

OCPs and PCBs were not found in the Upper Floridan Aquifer wells, except a low level of aldrin [0.000061 parts per million (ppm)]

A baseline risk-assessment represents an evaluation of the "No Act.ion" alternative, in that it identifies the risk present if no remediai action is taken. The assessraent considers environmental media and exposure pathways that could result in unacceptable levels of exposure no-w or in the foreseeable future. Data collected and analyzed during the RI provided the basis for the risk evaluation. The risk astassment process can be divided into four components: contaminant identification; exposure assessment; toxicity assessment; and risk characterization.

The Reeves source controi RI/FS has focused on :;-':ll . • ' • •'' "• " contamination on the Reeve.^ S'.G and SEW facilities. Both of these facilities contain currently operating plants. According to the Future cf Hillsborough Brandon Planning .\rea Land Use Plan •iap, the site falls within the Urban Level 2 {U1.-2) Land Use Plan Category. This land use category dei-^icnates those areas located within the 1-75 Corridor and determined to be best su.Lted for urban use, with development occurring with the provision and timing of transportation and public facility devolopment.

The assumption made in the risk assessment is that onsite chemicals in soil di.' perse into the air at this site. AJ.1 of the chemicals of potential concern are of low volatility and bind to soils weakly.

:.': . •,urj:;arY, the current use scenarios were based on limited <-.cc:„o3 to the site due to various security measures. The future use scenario were bo. d on the assumptions that: (1) the site was develop -:: for reside,'; " uae (no sediment numbers •/£-"'•; generated because sedim.ents v.fo-alJ ..'^ removed for .residential ueveicpment) ; and (2) because access is unrestricted, trespasser frequency is greater than in the current use scenario.

6.1.4 Toxicitv Assessm.ent Information

Slope £ac-:;crs (SFs)'hova .been developed by EPA's Carcinogenic Assessraent Group for estimating excess lifetime cancer ris.ks associated with exposure to the potentially carcinogenic contaminant(^G) of concern. SFs, which are expressed in units of (mg/kg-day)"^, are multiplied by the estiraated intake of a potential carcinogen/ in ing/kg-day^ to provide an upper-bound estimate of the excess .1 iietime cancer risk associated with exposure at that intake level. The term "upper bound" reflects the conservative estimate of the risks calculated from the SF. Use of this approach makes underestimation of the actual cancer risk highly unlikely. Slope factors are derived frora the results of hiiman epidemiological studies or chronic animal bioassays to which animal-to-human extrapolation and uncertainty factors have been applied (e.g., to account for the use of animal data to predict effects on humans).

Reference doses (RfDs) have been developed by EPA for indicating

Arsenic, cadm.ium, chromiuim ("VI), nickel, PCBs, and PAHs -were each evaluated for their carcinogenic potential using U.S. EPA sloipe factors. Cadmium, chromiiun (VI) and nickel are viewed as carcinogenic from the inhalation route of exposure only. Arsenic, PCBs and PAHs are assumed to be carcinogenic from all ccu'tes-' b.j e ipos- re.,

6.1.5 Risk Characterization Information

For carcinogens, risks are estimated as the incremental probability of an individual developing cancer over a life-tirae as a result of exposure to the carcinogen. Excess life-ti_rae cancer risk is calculated frora the following equation:

The potential for noncarcinogenic effects is evaluated by coraparing an exposure level over a specified time period (e.g., life-tim.e) with a reference doae derived for a similar e.xposure period. The ratio of exposure to toxicity is called a hazard quotient (HQ), By adding the HQs for all contaminant(s) of c:*..' cvT:n that affects the same target organ (e.g., liver) within a ,f,;.,-i£-i<t; or across ail Kodia to which a given population may re3SO'i^?fcly '::e exposed, ths Hazard Index (HI) can be .generated.

The HQ is calculated ^ " •••v.-s:

Non-cancer HQ = CDI/RfD

CDI = Chronic Daily Intake

RfD = reference doss,'? ajid " • • . ' • ' • • '

CDI and RfD are e:epreoBcd in t/te masne unit's and reprwserit the same exposure period (i.e., chronic, subclixonic, or short-term).

The .level of confidence tnat one has in the information produced by the risk characterization process is dependent on the validity of the information used in previous stages of the risk assessment. Although uncertainties are inherent in all four stages of a risk assessment, the most significant uncertainty in this assessraent is probably associated with the toxicity assessraent for carcinogenic PAHs and arsenic and the evaluation of the dermal absorption exposure route.

Risk based remediation goals v;ere determined for several exposure scenarios. Due to the expected continued industrial operations at the SEG and SEW facilities, risk based action levels based on a cancer risk of < 1x10"* were considered appropriate. None of those levels were exceeded in the soils, sediments or surface water. Although the average site concentration of chromium did

ARARs fall into three categories: contaminant-specific; location-specific; and action-specific. Some rules do not specifically apply to a remedial action; however, because of their subject matter, they may provide some guidance in implementing a chosen RA. These rules are called to-be-considereds (TBCs). Potential ARARs and TBCs can be found in Table Four.

The conteuninated material at the site was evaluated in regard to the applicability of the RCRA Land Disposal Requireraents (LDRs) and it was determined that the RCRA LDRs were not an ARAR. The

In selecting its pr .-fGrr-- .-! tleinur. alternat-ve. £.'.•.-. .;.:•.•. ... ,-criteria to evaiuate each of the detiiilao alternatives developed in the FS. Those nine criteria are developed in more detail in the figure cn the next page. The comparison of the four alternatives using those criteria can be found in the remainder of Section 3 of this .HOD.

'' - ," health and the environment than either 3A or'3b'because the " contaminants are removed from the environment. However, the i,T5-.iobilization of contaminants offered in 3A and 3D provides ,--c..'.5uate protection, Tho protection offered by 3A is slightly bfecLor than 3D beca-aae vrater contact with the stabilized waste is m.inimi?:ed in 3A. Z i n c B the No Action Alternative does not elimir..-:3, reduce c '-•'•'-ol any of the expo8u.re pr-rh^'ays, it is therefore not protec:.: --. •- • human 'aoKlt,h or thc onv.-, ,-....'.'iient and will not be conaiderea ^jr^ner in :h.-: analysi::, as an option for the source control.

8.2.2 Compliance with ARARs

All of the alternatives comply with relevant Federal and State ARARs and with SARA's preference for treatment.

8.3 Primarv Balancing Cri.ter-ia

8.3.1 Long-Term Effectiveness

Alternative 5B provides the greatest degree of long-term risk reduction because the hea-vy metals are reraoved frora the soils/sediments. Alternatives 3A and 3D provide significant 'long-"tenR pro-ta'c-r.lon' j^.' that the bee-iry •'vetfl.ls are immobilized onsite and therefore are "not signiricant-ly avaiiable for-airecc contact or leaching .into groundwater. Because 3A minimizes the amount the stcibiiized. vaste comes into contact'jwith -water,- it affords slightiy .more; long te^nu e"ffectiv.ehess-i-fehan 3D; however,, ' bench scale tests "indicate that the stal?,ilized v/ascs will not significantly leach -even if it comee into sustained contact with water.

D. REMAINING CONCERNS

As a part of its overall cor.a..c.'. - on the preferred alternative, the PRP foir this site submitted comments concerning documents included in, or excluded from, EPA's Administrative Record. Because these comments do not address the selection of the remedial action in this ROD, they will .be addressed separately from the Responsiveness Summary.

There were no significant concerns expressed during the public comment period about EPA's preferred alternative for the source control at the Reeves Southeastern site.

A seco.id pond •--•-;::• constracted prior o 1969: it wa-s sulx.^mdec! in 1975 to form the t-wo current p>onds in tin; southwest comer of the faciiity. Both ponds ore Pfproximately 35 feet by 35 feet, and are surrounded by a 3 foot berm. The ponds were excavated to a depth of 3 feet. Discharge into these ponds ceased in 1980 -when SE"W began iising its pilot wastewater pretreatment program.
