Description | The Toxics Investigations and Ground Water Monitoring Section of the Department of Ecology was requested by the Eastern Regional Office to characterize ground water and soil contamination at the Port of Pasco Bulk Terminal. Twelve ground water and six composite soil samples were collected and analyzed for volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds, pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, and dissolved priority pollutant metals. Analytical results showed dissolved aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons and 1,2-dichloropropane in the ground water. Soil sampling revealed the presence of 1,2-dichloropropane and various pesticides in soils surrounding bulk storage tanks 41 and 42. No polychlorinated biphenyls were detected. | ||||
