Eight soil borings were made and samples taken for laboratory analysis of BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and total xylenes) and PNAs (polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons), the specific indicator contaminants for heating oil tanks. During the drilling/sampling activities, field indications of potential contamination were minimal and noted in only one of the eight boring locations (B1). The soil sample analytical results indicated that one PNA compound (naphthalene) was detected at a concentration above the most stringent Tier 1 soil remediation objectives (SROs) and only in 1 of the 10 soil samples analyzed (B1 at 10-12.5'). In addition, the concentration of TPH (3,621 mg/kg) detected in that same sample exceeded the default soil attenuation capacity value for subsurface soils (2,000 mg/kg).
