1.0 Introduction
1.1 Site Description
Site Name Murray Fire Station
Site Location/Address 4848 South Box Elder Street, Murray, Utah
General Site
Description
The site is comprised of one parcel (Salt Lake County parcel
21-12-230-043) totaling approximately 1.72-acres of land.
Exhibit 1 (Appendix A) presents the site location on a portion of the United States Geologic
Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute series topographic map.Exhibit 2 (Appendix A) depicts a general
site overview of the property.
The Murray City Redevelopment Agency (RDA) completed a remedial action under the Utah
Department of Environmental Quality (UDEQ), Division of Environmental Response and
Remediation’s (DERRs) Voluntary Cleanup Program (VCP) on the northern portion of the
former UTA Lots property (now the Murray Fire Station, Salt Lake County Assessor Parcel
No. 21-12-230-043). The purpose of the Site Management Plan (SMP) is to provide
guidance to maintain the protectiveness of the remedial action conducted at the site.
It should be noted that the site address and parcel number has been updated by the Salt
Lake County Assessor now that the fire station has been built on the site. The new address,
4848 South Box Elder Street replaces the 4800 and 4822 South Box Elder Street addresses
mentioned in previous reports and in the VCP. The parcel number presented above replaces
any previous parcel numbers provided. This SMP covers this updated address and the
updated property information as provided.
This SMP applies specifically to the Fire Station portion of the VCP site, which also originally
included the vacant property to the south. The two properties were separated in order to
get final closure for the northern fire station property, and the VCP application was
amended to only include the northern property (fire station parcel). This SMP is explicitly
defined as Exhibit A of the Environmental Covenant (EC) to be recorded on this parcel. This
SMP and the EC will also be incorporated into the final Certificate of Completion issued by
the UDEQ when the remediation of the entire VCP site is completed.
1.2 Project Background
The Murray Fire Station property occupies an approximately 1.72-acre property addressed
as 4848 South Box Elder Street, Murray, Utah (Appendix A;Exhibit 1 and Exhibit 2). The
remediation project area includes the area defined as “the Murray Fire Station.” Property

information from the Salt Lake County Assessor’s Office is provided in Appendix B (Lot 1,
Parcel No. 21-12-230-043). The site is owned by the Redevelopment Agency of Murray City,
and the anticipated future use of the site is a fire station.
Elevated concentrations of arsenic and lead were reported in fill material covering much of
the site and to a lesser extent, underlying native soils. Concentrations exceeded the United
States Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) November 2022 Regional Screening Levels
(RSLs) for commercial properties. Groundwater at the site has been impacted by arsenic
and lead at concentrations above the EPAs current Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCLs) for
drinking water for these metals (0.010 mg/L and 0.015 mg/L, respectively).
Petroleum hydrocarbons were detected in soils and groundwater along the east and
northeast portion of the property. In general, concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons in
soils were below DERRs Initial Screening Levels (ISLs), with the exception of soils from BH-
4. A sample collected from 15 feet below the ground surface (bgs) from BH-4 reported total
petroleum hydrocarbons in the gasoline range (TPH-GRO) at 310 mg/kg, which exceeds the
ISL of 150 mg/kg. Based on field screening of continuous soil samples from the borings,
VOCs measured with the photoionization detector (PID) were not encountered in soils above
9 feet bgs and were more commonly observed in soils from 12.5 feet bgs to 14 bgs within
the capillary fringe zone. As such, soil impacts from petroleum hydrocarbons are not
expected to affect the future planned land use.
Concentrations of TPH-GRO, total petroleum hydrocarbons in the diesel range (TPH-DRO),
benzene, and ethylbenzene in groundwater exceed DERR’s ISLs in some locations. Based on
the measured direction of groundwater flow at the site to the southwest, the source of the
petroleum hydrocarbons appears to be off-site. Institutional controls will be recorded to limit
use of groundwater on-site. At some locations, concentrations of benzene, ethylbenzene,
naphthalene, and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene in groundwater exceed EPAs November 2022
Target Groundwater Concentration Vapor Intrusion Screening Levels for commercial land
use (VISLs, based on EPAs November 2022 RSLs), indicating a potential risk of vapor
intrusion exists due to impacted groundwater.
1.3 Remedial Action
The RDA entered into Utah’s VCP to address the remediation of impacted soils and
groundwater. At the request of the RDA, Terracon developed a Remedial Action Plan (RAP;
Terracon; November 8, 2018) to address impacted soils, groundwater, and soil vapor
impacts. The RAP was then implemented extending to February 2020, and consisted of the
following:
Capping of Impacted soils:installation of a protective cover, consisting of
building, hardscaping, one-and-one-half feet of clean fill, or a geotextile
fabric/cobble unit for all portions of the site.
Site Management Plan
Murray City Fire Station | Murray, Utah
November 29, 2023 | Terracon Project No. 61237090
Facilities |Environmental |Geotechnical | Materials 3
Confirmation Soil Sampling: collection of soil samples for laboratory analyses to
document concentrations of any remaining contaminates of concern. A diagram
showing the confirmation sampling locations is included in (Appendix A)Exhibit 3.
Vapor mitigation: installation of a vapor mitigation system for all occupied
buildings on-site.
The contaminants of concern for the site and their respective Updated Cleanup Levels from
the Final Remedial Action Plan Implementation Report (dated June 30, 2020) are listed in
the table below.
Contaminant of Concern Affected Media

Levels
Lead Soil 800 mg/kg(1)
Arsenic Soil 50 mg/kg(2)

Naphthalene Groundwater 0.0201 mg/l(3)
1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene Groundwater 1.470 mg/l(3)
1)EPA’s November 2022 RSLs for residential soil using a Target Cancer Risk of one in a million
and a non-cancer Hazard Quotient of 1.
2)Native arsenic concentrations in soil in Utah have been found to be well above EPAs November
2022 RSLs for residential soil of 0.67 mg/kg. Mean background concentrations for arsenic in
the region have been found to range from 5.5 to 14.9 mg/kg with a standard deviation up to
8.3 mg/kg (USGS 1984, USGS 2001). Numerous risk-assessments for arsenic in commercial
and residential site soils, such as the Kennecott Bingham Creek and Murray Smelter projects,
have also established risk-based clean-up levels above 100 mg/kg. To be conservative, half of
the typical lower risk-based screening level for arsenic (100 mg/kg) discussed above will be
utilized for the Cleanup Level.
3)These cleanup levels correspond to EPA’s November 2022 Target Groundwater Concentration
Vapor Intrusion Screening Levels (VISLs) for commercial land use.
The RAP Implementation Report (dated June 30, 2020) was prepared by Terracon to
document the completion of the RAP activities. The report documented concentrations of
Site Management Plan
Murray City Fire Station | Murray, Utah
November 29, 2023 | Terracon Project No. 61237090
Facilities |Environmental |Geotechnical | Materials 4
contaminates of concern remaining above the EPAs commercial RSLs for the site in
excavation wall and floor samples. Based on the findings, as detailed in the RAP
Implementation Report, this Site Management Plan assumes concentrations that exceed
Cleanup Levels could be present in any location at the extent of the excavation.
A Vapor Mitigation System Installation Observations letter, included as Appendix D of the
RAP Implementation Report (June 30, 2020), documented the installation of the vapor
mitigation system (VMS) and provided as-built drawings and photographs of the system
components.
2.0 Institutional Controls
2.1 Environmental Covenant
The RDA will work with the UDEQ to prepare an EC that outlines the continuing obligations
and limitations associated with impacted soils remaining at the site. The EC will also address
the potential for vapor mitigation at the site through an Institutional Control limiting the
acceptable land uses of development of the site. The EC will be recorded on the site’s title
by the Redevelopment Agency of Murray City.
2.2 Land Use Limitations
Use of the Property is for commercial use only.
Commercial land use consisting of a fire station (with living quarters on the second floor) is
allowed based on the elimination of the exposure pathway from impacted soils to occupants
of the fire station by capping the materials with either the fire station building, hardscaping,
or 1.5 feet of clean fill in areas of landscaping, and operation of the VMS in the occupied
portion of the fire station building.
In the event additional occupied buildings are constructed on the site, or if the site is
otherwise redeveloped, the requirements for vapor mitigation will need to be re-evaluated
and discussed with and approved by the VCP. In addition, use of groundwater for drinking
water, irrigation, or bathing purposes is prohibited.
3.0 Engineering Controls
3.1 Vapor Mitigation System
The VMS was constructed at the site to mitigate the risk of soil vapor intrusion into the
interior of the on-site occupied buildings. The VMS consists of a minimum of 4 inches of
Site Management Plan
Murray City Fire Station | Murray, Utah
November 29, 2023 | Terracon Project No. 61237090
Facilities |Environmental |Geotechnical | Materials 5
crushed rock, a low profile vent piping system, and a Geo-Seal® vapor membrane placed
directly beneath the concrete floor slab. The VMS was constructed prior to placement of the
floor slab, with the vent piping system routed through interior walls to the building rooftop.
The VMS was designed by Terracon and Terracon performed third-party Installation
Observations. Details of the VMS design and installation were provided in the Vapor
Mitigation Installation Observations letter report (Terracon; April 24, 2020) and included as
Appendix D of the Remedial Action Plan Implementation Report (dated June 30, 2020).
3.2 Protective Cover System
Impacted soils were observed across the site and as such, the surface of the project area
was capped with either structures, asphalt, or landscaped areas. Landscaped areas were
generally developed with a minimum of 1.5 feet of clean soils placed over impacted
materials. The contact between impacted and clean materials beneath the landscaped areas
was demarcated with orange-colored snow fencing, so that future construction workers at
the site are visually cued to the presence of the underlying impacted zone.
The only exception to the cover system described above was on the western slope of the
property and the sloped areas of the storm water detention pond where placing a minimum
of 1.5 feet of clean soil over impacted materials was not feasible. In these areas, the
surface was armored with a layer of black geotextile fabric. A six-inch layer of 2 to 4 inch
sized cobble was then placed on top of this fabric. This modification was approved by the
VCP prior to implementation.
4.0 Site Management
Results of confirmation soil samples collected from beneath the fire station building
footprint, from the retention pond, western slope, elevator pits, and grease trap excavations
show that elevated concentrations of lead and arsenic remain at the site. As such, the
following subsections outline required management actions to maintain the protectiveness
of the remedy.
4.1 Soil Excavation
As contaminates of concern below the protective covers remain in soils at concentrations
exceeding the Cleanup Levels, this Site Management Plan includes guidance for excavation
activities where the impacted soils could be encountered in the future. Based on the
findings, as detailed in the RAP Implementation Report, this Site Management Plan assumes
concentrations that exceed the Cleanup Levels) could be present in any location on the site.
Site Management Plan
Murray City Fire Station | Murray, Utah
November 29, 2023 | Terracon Project No. 61237090
Facilities |Environmental |Geotechnical | Materials 6
Construction activities and other unforeseen events that may result in disturbances to
impacted soil will require the RDA to submit a work plan for approval by the UDEQ to
properly manage the excavated materials, reconstruct affected components to maintain the
function of the cover system and VMS, and prevent offsite migration of contaminated
media. The work plan shall include construction worker notification, safety measures, and
appropriate soil waste characterization and disposal requirements, if required. While the
RDA cannot control off-site activities, it is recommended that any off-site excavations that
could encroach onto the site (e.g., underground utility repairs or new underground utilities
that could be brought to the site) be observed to ensure off-site soils do not come onto the
site.
Impacted soils to be transported off-site may require characterization by sampling and
laboratory analysis prior to approval for off-site disposal. Characterization of the soils will
determine the proper disposal methods. In all cases, soil must be disposed of in a lawful
manner consistent with all pertinent federal, state, and local environmental laws, and
documentation must be provided to the UDEQ. In the event that sampling activities are
required to be conducted, all sampling must be performed by qualified personnel. Samples
must be analyzed by state-certified laboratories and quality assurance procedures from the
Murray RDA Quality Assurance Project Plan should be followed as appropriate.
4.2 Retention Pond Inspections
The surfaces of the western sloped boundary and the retention pond are capped with a
geotextile fabric and 6 inches of 2 to 4 inch sized cobble. A designated person, familiar with
this management plan, should visually inspect this cap annually (at a minimum) to ensure
the proper thickness of cobble remains in place and there are no indication of tears in the
fabric. Any loss of apparent integrity to these cover systems will be repaired, with
documentation of the repairs reported to UDEQ.
4.3 Hardscape and Landscaped Area Inspections
Landscaped areas were generally developed with a minimum of 1.5 feet of clean soils placed
over impacted materials. A designated person, familiar with this management plan, should
visually inspect these landscaped areas to ensure the proper thickness of clean soil remains
in place and there is no indication of impacted materials present. Any loss of apparent clean
soil thickness will be rectified, with documentation reported to UDEQ.

4.4 VMS Inspections, Operations and Maintenance
A person shall be designated to perform the duties outlined in this section. That person
should be familiar with the VMS and knowledgeable about this management plan. The
designated person shall inspect the VMS components on an annual basis.
Observations should be described on a dated and signed form that is retained for record
keeping purposes. If any of the components of the VMS require maintenance or repairs, the
designated person shall notify Terracon or other qualified consultant and record the actions
taken. The VMS components to be inspected are as follows:
Vapor Barrier:Future construction activities (e.g., cutting, drilling, or hammering into the
building slab; removal of building floor slabs; or alterations that could expose the vapor
barrier) in the fire station building where the VMS was installed that could puncture or tear
the vapor barrier, which would reduce the effectiveness of the barrier. If such impacts
cannot practically be avoided, prior to implementing such building modifications, the UDEQ
will need to be contacted and a plan prepared to demonstrate how the vapor barrier will be
maintained or repaired, as necessary.
Vents:Vent pipes run upwards from beneath the building slab vertically through wall
cavities. The vent risers and associated passive venting turbines are located on the roof.
Refer to Appendix C, Sheet VMS-4 for the locations of each vent. The vents should be
visually inspected to ensure they are free of debris that may restrict the air flow through the
system and that all components are present and in working order.
Typical vent riser Typical vent turbine ventilator Typical vent turbine ventilator
(view from below)
Vertical pipe sample port:The sample ports and associated gate valves are located on
the piping sections on the roof, just below the turbine ventilators. The sample ports should
Site Management Plan
Murray City Fire Station | Murray, Utah
November 29, 2023 | Terracon Project No. 61237090
Facilities |Environmental |Geotechnical | Materials 8
be visually inspected to ensure the gate valves are in the open position (i.e., the handle is
turned all the way to the left, counterclockwise), which is necessary to allow air flow
through the passive system, the sampling port plug is in place and tight, and the vent pipes
are in good condition (i.e., no obvious damage, cracks, etc.).
Future construction activities (e.g., cutting, drilling, or hammering into wall cavities where
vertical vent lines exist or roof repairs around vent pipe risers) in occupied structures at the
site where the VMS was installed that could damage the vent lines or risers, which would
reduce the effectiveness of the VMS. Construction activities should be reviewed and
potential damage to the VMS should be avoided where practical. If building construction will
damage the VMS, the UDEQ will need to be contacted and a plan prepared to demonstrate
how the vent lines will be maintained or repaired, as necessary.
4.5 Worker Health and Safety Requirements
The RDA shall inform any workers conducting sub slab or subgrade work on the site of the
presence of the VMS and potential soil impacts that could be encountered on the property.
As appropriate, contractors that could come into contact with soil impacts should prepare
their own Health and Safety Plan that specifically addresses potential contaminants that
could be encountered and personal protective equipment (PPE) that is required. It will be
the contractor’s responsibility to ensure worker protection meets the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration’s (OSHA’s) requirements.
4.6 Contingency Plan
If unforeseen events or unexpected contamination are encountered, UDEQ will be notified
and a contingency plan will be developed in consultation with UDEQ to address the situation.
4.7 Notification
RDA shall notify UDEQ either by phone at (801) 536-4100 or in writing at the address noted
below of any excavation into impacted soils. In addition to the SMP requirements, site
activities must comply with appropriate permitting authorities.

Re: Murray City Fire Station Vapor Intrusion Mitigation System Installation Observations
4800 South Box Elder Street
Murray, Utah
Terracon Project No. 61177111
Dear Ms. Greenwood:
This report summarizes Vapor Intrusion Mitigation System (VIMS) installation and testing
activities observed by Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) at the subject property. The VIMS
was constructed to mitigate migration of volatile organic compounds identified in soil vapor into
the interior of the Murray City Fire Station building. A Geo-Seal® certified installer, Contractors
Waterproofing, Inc. (Contractors Waterproofing) installed the below-grade components of VIMS.
Terracon provided Geo-Seal® certified VIMS inspectors to observe the installation, record results
of VIMS membrane coupon and smoke tests, and document VIMS completion.
VIMS Installation Overview
The VIMS consists of three key components: (1) a passive vapor-collection system (low-profile
horizontal piping) embedded in a layer of granular substrate material (gravel) beneath the
concrete floor slab, (2) a VIMS membrane installed above the gravel layer (and beneath the floor
slab), and (3) vertical risers and piping to vent captured vapors above the building rooftop. No
VIMS membrane was installed in the Fire Station Engine Bay area as the concrete floor and
engineered, forced ventilation provide sufficient vapor removal for the area. Materials used for
the VIMS were manufactured by Land Science Technology under the trade name of Geo-Seal®
Vapor Intrusion Barrier. The VIMS design was completed by Terracon and is provided as Plans
& Specifications for Vapor Mitigation System in Appendix A.
The sub-slab VIMS components were installed during early construction phases of the Fire
Station building Sub-slab VIMS components were installed prior to concrete slab pouring and
finishing. A minimum of 4 inches of gravel was initially placed by the general contractor (GC) and
graded within the building footprint to provide a substrate layer for embedding the low-profile
vapor collection piping which was connected to 3-inch PVC header piping. The vapor
collection/header piping network was installed in the gravel layer and connected to risers installed
by the GC. The Geo-Seal® volatile vapor mitigation membrane was then installed above the

gravel layer except as previously noted. - The Geo-Seal VIMS membrane consists of three
components: the BASE foundation layer; the spray-applied, asphaltic CORE layer; and, the
protective BOND layer. Following installation of these sub-slab VIMS components, the concrete
floor slabs were poured and finished by the GC. After additional building construction work, the
GC extended the nine (9) vertical risers through the walls to the building rooftop.
Field VIMS Installation, Observations & Testing
Contractors Waterproofing installed the horizontal collection and header piping network, the sub-
slab VIMS membrane and vapor riser components between April 4 and April 16, 2019. All VIMS
components were installed according to Terracon’s VIMS design documents (Appendix A) and
Land Science Technology’s Geo-Seal®VIMS installation specifications.
Observation and testing of the VIMS installation were conducted by Nancy Saunders and Mark
Lilly of Terracon, both Geo-Seal®Certified VIMS Inspectors. During that time, the gravel layer,
low-profile vent piping, and Geo-Seal® VIMS membrane installation activities were observed and
tested. The sub-slab VIMS membrane, the low-profile vent collection piping and associated PVC
manifold piping were installed under the building’s floor areas prior to pouring the concrete slabs.
As an exception, a VIMS membrane was not installed in truck bay area of the building. Above
floor grade piping, including vapor emission sampling ports and rooftop vents were completed by
the GC during subsequent building construction activities.
Following the spray application of Geo-Seal®CORE on the BASE layer, Terracon conducted
VIMS membrane coupon sampling to verify that the VIMS design-specified minimum CORE
thickness of 30 mils was met. Coupon samples were taken by the VIMS contractor at
approximately 500-square-feet intervals at 22 locations within the building’s footprint. The
approximate locations of the VIMS coupon testing are shown on the Exhibit in Appendix B. At
each coupon test location, an approximate 2-inch by 2-inch coupon was cut out of the VIMS
membrane and the thickness was measured using a digital caliper. Areas where coupon samples
did not meet the minimum specified CORE thickness of 30 mils were resprayed with CORE
material and re-measured. Upon completion of coupon testing and application of additional
CORE material as needed, each coupon test location was repaired per manufacturer
specifications. Following the above-describe procedure, the CORE thickness met or exceeded
the design-specified asphaltic CORE membrane thickness of 30 mils.
Smoke tests were subsequently performed to identify leaks in the VIMS membrane. Smoke tests
entailed using a smoke generator to introduce smoke under the BASE and CORE layers of the
membrane and inspection for visible leaks in the membrane. Leaks discovered during the smoke
testing activities were repaired by applying additional CORE material over the identified leak. The
area was then retested with a smoke test to verify the leak had been sealed.
Once smoke testing was completed and all leaks repaired, Contractors Waterproofing installed a
layer of Geo-Seal® BOND material on top of the asphaltic CORE layer to protect the CORE during
subsequent installation of reinforcing steel and pouring of the concrete slabs. A Figure which
identifies the VIMS Membrane Coupon Sample and Smoke Test Injection Locations is provided

in Appendix B. The VIMS Membrane Installation Coupon and Smoke Testing results are
tabulated in the VIMS Observation Summary Table provided in Appendix C.
During subsequent building construction activities, flow control valves and sample ports were
installed above the roof-top at each of the vapor riser pipes by the GC; passive vents were then
installed at the terminus of each riser pipe. Following completion of building construction, an
inspection of vertical riser pipes, rooftop vents and sample ports was conducted on March 20 and
April 6, 2020. Above-grade VIMS component installations were completed in general accordance
with the VIMS design. A VIMS Installation Photographic Log documenting the VIMS installation
activities is provided in Appendix D. Copies of the VIMS membrane installation observation field
reports are provided in Appendix E.
Summary
The results of the VIMS installation observation activities and subsequent inspections conducted
by Terracon indicate that the VIMS installed at this site meets the requirements of Geo-Seal’s
specifications and Terracon’s VIMS Design. We appreciate the opportunity to conduct these
services for the Redevelopment Agency of Murray City. Please contact Michael Lane, Nancy
Saunders or Mark Lilly if you have questions regarding the information provided in this report.
