<strong>Remedial</strong> <strong>Action</strong> <strong>Completion</strong> <strong>Report</strong><br />

will be removed and a Notice of Termination (NOT) will be submitted to <strong>the</strong> Ohio EPA only<br />

after vegetation is established and disturbed areas are stabilized.<br />

3.3.5 Clearing and Grubbing<br />

Shaw cleared and grubbed only vegetation that impeded or interfered with <strong>the</strong> safe and effective<br />

implementation of <strong>the</strong> design and requirements of <strong>the</strong> site work. The removed vegetation was<br />

consolidated at each load line and was placed at points nearest <strong>the</strong> excavation where it could not<br />

impact <strong>the</strong> remediation activities.<br />

3.3.6 Source of Water Usage<br />

Potable water and water <strong>for</strong> onsite construction use, including equipment decontamination water,<br />

was supplied by Shaw. Water <strong>for</strong> on site construction use was brought on site and stored in a<br />

designated temporary on-site storage tank. The tank was appropriately labeled as “WATER<br />

FOR CONSTRUCTION USE ONLY” to prevent inadvertent use. The source of <strong>the</strong><br />

construction water was <strong>the</strong> Newton Falls Water Treatment Facility. Analytical data was<br />

provided <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> water source and included analysis <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> following;<br />

• TCL VOCs<br />

• TCL SVOCs<br />

• TCL pesticides<br />

• PCBs<br />

• explosives<br />

• propellants (nitroglycerine, nitroguanidine and nitrocellulose)<br />

• filtered TAL metals<br />

Approval to utilize <strong>the</strong> water source was received from both <strong>the</strong> USACE and Ohio EPA project<br />

managers in accordance with Section 4.3.2.2.4 of <strong>the</strong> FSAP (SAIC 2001). A summary of<br />

analytical results <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> Newton Falls Water Treatment Facility are presented in <strong>the</strong> data tables<br />

(Table B-2) in Appendix B. The Kemron laboratory report and associated evaluation report <strong>for</strong><br />

water source are presented in Appendix D in <strong>the</strong> electronic attachment to this RACR.<br />

3.3.7 Dust Management<br />

Control measures were necessary to prevent airborne releases of dust during earth moving<br />

activities. The primary dust control measure was <strong>the</strong> application of a water spray to exposed<br />

soils. Shaw supplied all water using a water wagon to contain water <strong>for</strong> dust suppression. Water<br />

was sprayed on temporary soil piles, excavations, and re-vegetation areas. Only potable water<br />

obtained from <strong>the</strong> Newton Falls Water Treatment Facility was used <strong>for</strong> dust control. Water was<br />

only applied to prevent dust emissions as best as possible and no runoff or areas of standing<br />

water were created.<br />

All contaminated soils were covered during storage, wetted as required, and covered during<br />

transport to prevent windblown conditions. Work areas that showed potential release of dust<br />

were reported to <strong>the</strong> Shaw Field Superintendent, who ensured that <strong>the</strong> water was sprayed on <strong>the</strong><br />
