Dear Mr. Mecham:
Westech prepared this report to document results of abatement activities conducted at the referenced site.
Abatement activities were undertaken to remove impacted soil and prevent migration of petroleum
hydrocarbons. The activities involved removing and disposing of impacted soil and collecting confirmatory
soil samples.
The Mecham Brothers, Inc. site contains two above ground storage tanks (ASTs) that formerly supplied two
ground-mounted dispensers. Locations of the ASTs and site features are shown in Figure 1, locations of the
former dispensers are shown on Figure 2. The dispensers were permanently closed on January 22, 2024.
Results of closure sampling indicated that soil beneath the dispensers was impacted by petroleum
hydrocarbons in excess of initial screening levels (ISLs). Locations of the closure samples are shown on
Figure 3 and results of the closure sampling are summarized in Table 1.
Excavation began below the former dispensers and continued outward and downward until field screening
indicated that the extent of impacted soil had been reached. Approximately 63 cubic yards of soil were
removed, including overburden and soil removed for access. The soil was transported to ET Technologies
soils regeneration facility in Salt Lake City for disposal. Soils encountered in the excavation were clayey silt
from near surface to approximately 8.5 feet, then well graded sand extending to the depths excavated. A log
of the soils encountered is attached. No groundwater was encountered during the abatement activities.
Confirmatory soil samples were collected from the side walls and excavation bottom, locations of the
samples are shown on Figure 3. The samples were placed into an iced cooler and delivered under chain -of-
custody to the analytical laboratory. The samples were analyzed for methyl tert -butyl ether (MTBE), benzene,
toluene, ethylbenzene, total xylenes, naphthalene (MBTEXN), and gasoline-range total petroleum
hydrocarbons (TPH GRO) using method 8260, and diesel-range total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH DRO)
using method 8015. Copies of the laboratory analytical report and chain -of-custody documentation are
attached. Analytical results are summarized in Table 1.

The analytical results indicate that none of the confirmatory soil samples contained detectable concentrations
of petroleum hydrocarbons. These results confirm the abatement activities successfully removed impacted
soil due to this release. Based on these results Westech recommends that no further action be required at
this site.
Our services consist of professional opinions made in general accordance with locally accepted
environmental practices at the time of execution. Environmental samples are obtained from specific
locations, utilizing methodologies consistent with the Utah Department of Environmental Quality Guidelines.
Westech makes no guarantee, either expressed or implied, that the analytical results accurately represent
subsurface conditions throughout the site.
