RE: Formal Request for Subsurface Environmental Sampling-Burford Estate Property-2b01 NE
28`h Stree� LPST #091587
Dear Mr. Boerner:
As you know, Ea.gle Construction and Environmental Services, Inc. (Eagle) is working on behalf of
the Burford Esta.te. The Burford Estate is seeking the City's permission to proceed with the
investigation of subsurface contamination at 2601 N.E. 28�' Street as discussed in its Informal
Request. �
The Burford Estate owns the property. Mr. Chazles Burford is the representative of the Burford
Estate. The Estate mailing address is 3 East Lakeshore Drive, Ransom Canyon, Texas 79366.
However, correspondence may continue to be sent to John O'Malley of Eagle at P.O. Box 161704,
Fort Worth, Texas 76161.
Pursuant to § 12.5-146 of the City Code, the Burford Estate hereby makes its formal request that it be
allowed to conduct soil sampling on property dedicated to the City for Sylvania Street.
We submit the following in response to the requirements of Paragraph (b)(1) of § 12.6-146.
In accordance with Section 12.5-146, Eagle contacted DIGTESS, a subsurface utility locating service.
On May 14, 1999, DIGTESS notified utility companies with lines in the vicinity of the activities that
are to be performed. All other companies were contacted by Eagle. The following companies were

Telephone number: 817/871-8296
We submit the following in response to the requirements of Paragraph (b)(2) of § 12.6-146:
A. A scale drawing is atta.ched as Figure 1, which details a11 adjacent property and improvements
within 100 feet of the proposed sampling site. The exact location of the borehole installation is
provided in the attached Figure 1. The type of samples to be collected will be from soil material.
The samples will be collected from depths ranging from 0.5 feet to 20 feet. Anticipated time for
sample collection will be 8-10 hours. Street barrica.ding will not be necessary due to the fact that
the drilling will take place off �he roadway. Eagle will utilize a truck-mounted, mobile drilling rig
equipped with hollow stem augers to advance tlie soil boring to a depth of approximately 25 feet
below ground surface. Continuous samples will be collected using a 5-ft. split-spoon core barrel.
The recovered soil samples will be field screened using a portable photoionization detector (PID).
The readings along with the subsurface materials encountered will be logged in a field book by an
Eagle hydrogeologist. Select soil samples from each of the borings will be submitted to ERMI
Environmental Laboratories of Allen, Texas for chemical testing. The soil samples will be placed
in specially prepared sterile glass jars, capped with teflon-lined lids and preserved on ice for
transport to the laboratory. A completed chain-of-custody document will be prepared by Eagle to
accompany the samples during transport. The �soil samples will be tested for the TPH per Texas
Method 1005 and for volatile organic constituents using EPA Method 8020. Soil cuttings
removed from the boring will be placed in DOT-approved 55-gallon drums to await further
disposal proceedings. Following the completion of the drilling activities, the soil boring will be
converted to a monitor well using Schedule 40 PVC (2" dia.) with 0.010 machine-slotted well pipe
and sufficient blank riser pipe to bring the well up to grade. Following well development and
purging activities, Eagle will periodically collect a representative groundwater sample from the
,
well for submittal to the laboratory for chemical testing. The groundwater samples will be
analyzed for TPH and volatile organic compounds (EPA Method 8020).
B. Sample collection will be performed utilizing a hollow stainless split-spoon sampling apparatus.
The samples will be placed in specially prepared glass jars and capped with teflon-lined lids.
C. Eagle will be conducting the assessment, including soil sampling and report preparation. The
Samples will be submitted to ERMI Environmental Laboratories of Allen, Texas. John O'Ma11ey

involved in construction, operation and maintenance of the wells:

D. Sampling activities will be estimated to take 8-10 hours. The well is expected to be in service for
one to two years. Upon TNRCC approved of ceasation of the LPST site corrective actions and
closure of the site, the well will be plugged. The well will be plugged by first removing the
subsurface well casing, if possible, and then plugging the well with bentonite chips per TNRCC
guidelines. The manhole will be removed and the surface pavement restored to grade.
Monitoring will be performed approximately quarterly. The well cover will be removed and the
depth to water will be measured with an electronic interface probe. Samples will be collected no
more often than quarterly. Monitoring will not i�volve work in the street.
We appreciate you prompt response to this request so that the work can begin as soon as possible.
Please call me or Rick Purselley at 847-1333 should you require any further information.
Sincerely,
P.O' Malley
