1.0 INTRODUCTION
This Sampling Results Report was prepared by the Utah Department of Environmental Quality,
Division of Environmental Response and Remediation to summarize site conditions at the Reilly
Tar (Vertellus Provo) Site (Site), (CERCLIS ID #UTD009087644), located at 2555 South
Industrial Parkway in Provo, Utah.
The scope of this investigation included recording groundwater elevations and
collecting groundwater samples for semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), volatile
organic compounds (VOCs), and metals. Additionally, test pits were excavated and sampled to
delineate the extent of coal tar in the subsurface.
The purpose of this Sampling Results Report (SRR) is to present new data, summarize
pertinent results from previous studies, identify potentially hazardous conditions, identify data
gaps in order to determine the appropriate next steps to protect human health and the
environment at the Site.
2.0 OBJECTIVES
Field sampling activities were conducted in September of 2021, and involved the collection
of groundwater samples from the existing well network on Site and the collection of soil
samples from test pits dug by an excavator. All samples were analyzed for volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), and total metals. The
objectives of the Sampling Work Plan were as follows:
• Characterize the location and spread of contamination at the Site, specifically in the
southern portion of the property.
• Determine if Site contaminants are present in on and off-site groundwater.
• Determine the distribution and concentration levels of contamination on Site.
• Evaluate human health and environmental targets associated with the soil and
groundwater exposure pathways, and determine if these targets are being exposed.
3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
3.1 Site Location and Description
The Site is a former coal tar processing facility located on the lot at 2555 South Industrial
Parkway in Provo, Utah County, Utah (Appendix A, Figure 1). All buildings and structures have
been removed from the Site with some foundations remaining. The Site covers approximately
31.84 acres. The northern portion of the Site is dry, and is bounded by the Ironton Canal which
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 2
eventually drains into Utah Lake to the west. The southern portion of the Site is a seasonal
wetland. Industrial properties border the Site to the east, west, and south.
3.2 Site History
The Site operated as a coal tar distillery from 1924 to 2002. The Site was initially developed by
the Republic Creosote Company in 1924 (ERM, 2009). The Republic Creosote Company
changed their name to Reilly Tar and Chemical in 1961, which became Reilly Industries in 1989.
Former structures at the Site included two pole barns, a separation tank, a condenser, storage
tanks, a wastewater biotreatment system, and an evaporation pond. As a result of these
operations, soil, sediment, groundwater, and surface water on Site has been contaminated with
volatile organic compounds (VOCs), semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), and metals.
Products produced at the Site include creosote oil, electrode binder pitch, and various other oil
and tar products. Waste products generated at the Site include polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAH’s), phenols, benzene, cyanides, and sulfides (McComb, 2017). From 1982 to 1985 spills
cleanup waste material was buried on Site in windrows. Much of this material remains in place at
the Site (August Mack, 2003). The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) program
administered by the Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control (DWMRC) has
regulated the site since the early 1990’s. Reilly discontinued production operation at the Site in
early 2001 and decommissioned the facility during 2002. In September of 2005, Arsenal Capital
Partners acquired Reilly Industries and in July of 2006, Arsenal merged Reilly with another
company to form Vertellus. Vertellus removed all existing structures from the Site during 2006.
Currently only concrete foundations remain at the Site. The property owner was preparing to do
a Risk Assessment at the site when the owners of the property declared bankruptcy May 2016.
3.3 Previous Investigations
A Preliminary Assessment Plus completed by EPA for the Site in 1993 identified 10 solid waste
management units (SWMUs) at the Site. Reilly entered into a Stipulation and Consent
Agreement (Consent Agreement) with the DSHW on November 13, 1996 that required Reilly to
investigate and perform corrective action, as necessary, for the 10 SWMUs identified at the Site.
A phase II RFI Supplemental Work Plan was completed by August Mack Environmental on
March 6, 2007. A follow up Phase II Groundwater and Surface Water Monitoring Report was
completed by August Mack on April 28, 2010. A Revised Risk Assessment Work Plan was
completed by URS Corporation in December, 2012. On July 18, 2011 a Risk Assessment Work
Plan was submitted by URS Corporation to the Utah Division of Solid & Hazardous Waste. A
follow up Risk Assessment was submitted by URS Corporation in June of 2013. A Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment was completed by Enviro Assessment P.C. on March 24, 2014.
Findings of these reports all indicate the presence of contamination in the soil and groundwater.

Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 3
A Site Risk Assessment was prepared by URS in June of 2013. An overview of SWMU Areas at
the Site can be seen in this report as Figure 1-1 (URS, 2013). This report provided a baseline
evaluation of current or potential threats to human health and the environment from chemical
releases at the Vertellus property (URS, 2013). They determined that the human health risk at the
Site will be managed in a Site Management Plan and an Environmental Covenant without
additional correction action for certain areas (URS, 2013). However, in some areas cancer risk to
all receptors exceeded thresholds, and therefore, the Site Management Plan must include
procedures for a Corrective Action Plan to mitigate the risks to human health in these areas.
3.4 Removal Activities
In June of 2017 a Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START) and
Emergency and Rapid Response Services (ERRS) conducted a Removal Site Inspection with
UDEQ. Sitewide contamination including PAHs and volatile organic compounds (VOC's) was
observed, in some places reaching deeper than 13 feet. These contaminants were solid in the
eastern portion of the Site, but aqueous and mobile in the western portion of the Site, leading to
concerns that these contaminants could flow into the Ironton canal and discharge into Provo Bay.
Numerous asbestos containing tiles were also found at the site (McComb, 2017).
In November of 2017, EPA personnel conducted a limited time critical removal action (TCRA)
at the site to address concerns related to potential impacts to the Ironton Canal from
contamination in the northwest portion of the property. The TCRA consisted of the installation
of a flood resistant liner to prevent contamination from entering the Ironton canal and the
excavation of approximately 2,000 cubic yards of contaminated soil from the northern corner of
the Site and placing the excavated soil in an in-situ land farm on the eastern perimeter of the Site.
Runoff controls were established around the land farm area. Additionally, 1,780 pounds of
asbestos containing tiles were removed and properly disposed of off Site. Lastly, the entire area
was graded to ensure that surface water drains southward, erosion control features were installed
across the Site, and the entire area was re-seeded (Giggleman, 2018).
3.4.1 Post Removal Sampling
In 2017, six samples were collected from the soil that was placed in an in-situ land farm. RT-SS-
003 and RT-SS-006 were analyzed for metals (Appendix H). RT-SS-001 and RT-SS-004 were
analyzed for VOA's (Appendix H). RT-SS-002 and RT-SS-005 were analyzed for Semi-VOA's
and PAH's (Appendix H). Land farm samples exceeded the EPA's Industrial Soil Regional
Screening Level (RSL) for arsenic, nickel, benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene,
benzo(b)fluoranthene), benzo(g,h,i)perylene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, chrysene,
dibenzo(a,h)anthracene, dibenzofuran, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, N-nitrosodiphenylamine, and
naphthalene. Additionally, 66 other non-volatile compounds were detected at fairly high
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 4
concentrations (Appendix B, Table 4). Additional sampling was scheduled annually, but was not
able to be completed as planned. Data gaps currently exist as to the effectiveness of the land
farm.
31 monitoring wells were installed around, across, and adjacent to the site by Vertellus
Specialties Inc. in 2009 (URS, 2011). Twelve of those wells were sampled in November of 2017
to assess groundwater contamination at the Site (Appendix H). Samples were analyzed for
metals, VOA's, semi-VOA's, PAH's, and non-volatile contaminants. Groundwater samples
exceeded the 2020 SCDM Benchmark Values for arsenic, cobalt, thallium, benzene,
ethylbenzene, 2-methylnaphthalene, 2,4-Dimethylphenol, 4-Methylphenol, benzo(a)anthracene,
benzo(a)pyrene, dibenzofuran, dibenzo(a,h)anthracene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, naphthalene,
phenanthrene and phenol. 96 other non-volatile compounds were also detected in the
groundwater.
Thirteen of the monitoring wells around and across the property were sampled in May of 2018.
The same analytes were assessed for. In 2018 the following analytes were present at
concentrations that exceed 2020 SCDM benchmarks: arsenic, thallium, benzene, ethylbenzene,
benzo(a)anthracene, benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(k)fluoranthene, dibenzo(a,h)anthracene,
indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, naphthalene, 4-Methylnaphthalene, 2,4-Dimethylphenol, 4-
Methylphenol and dibenzofuran (Appendix H). Additionally, nearly 200 non-volatile compounds
were detected in monitoring well samples in 2018.
In April of 2018 the indoor air at a guard room across the road from the Site was tested to
determine if chlorinated solvents from the contaminated groundwater at the site were traveling
and volatilizing into structures located on the adjacent property. A Summa canister was used to
collect a 24-hour air sample from a location inside the guard station (Figure 2). No contaminants
were detected in concentrations above the EPA's 2018 Regional Screening Levels for Industrial
Air.

4.0 FIELD ACTIVITIES
4.1 Scope
The Site sampling activities were developed in the Field Sampling Work Plan and designed
according to the Site Conceptual Model (DERR, 2021a). The approved scope of work for this
Field Sampling Work Plan consisted of the following:
• Excavation of 15 test pits for the purpose of delineation of contamination in the southern
portion of the property, and up to four soil samples to be taken from the test pits.
• Collection of seven groundwater samples from the existing monitoring well network on
Site.
• Gauging depth to water from 10 monitoring wells on Site.
Due to field conditions or other specific factors, modifications to the scope of work were made.
It was proposed in the work plan that a geoprobe advance 20 soil borings; however, due to
equipment availability, time constraints, and field conditions, an excavator was brought out on
Site to excavate 15 test pits instead. A summary of field activities can be seen in Appendix D.
4.2 Sampling Strategy
The sampling strategy for soil excavations was designed to assess the vertical and horizontal
extent of impacts to soils at the Site. The test pits in the southern portion of the Site were
designed to assess the extent of contamination in the vicinity of the former solid waste
management units (SWMUs) and determine if contamination was deposited in other areas which
had not been investigated. These samples were analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
semi volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and
metals. After observation and sample collection was complete, each test pit was properly
backfilled and graded to surface conditions.
The sampling strategy for groundwater samples was designed to determine concentrations of
contamination on Site and to determine if contamination was migrating off Site to the adjacent
property. Four groundwater monitoring wells and three piezometers were gauged and sampled
for VOCs, SVOCs, PAHS, and metals. Groundwater and soil samples were delivered to an
analytical laboratory within holding times for all analytical methods to generate analytical data.
The table below provides a summary description of the sample locations, sample types, sampling
naming convention, laboratory analysis, and sampling rationale:

4.3 Data collection schedule
The sampling for the Site was conducted during two separate sampling events (September 8,
and September 29-30, 2021). EPA Superfund Technical Assessment & Response Team
(START) contractors were on-Site to provide excavator services to dig test pits around the
Site to delineate the extent of soil contamination, as well as collecting soil samples from a
few of the test pits (September 8, 2021). DERR conducted a separate groundwater sampling
event of the existing well network at the Site (September 29-30, 2022). Site sampling

Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 7
activities were conducted in accordance with the DERR Quality Assurance Project Plan
(QAPP) (DERR, 2020b).
4.3.1 Deviations from the work plan
The work plan stated 21 soil borings were to be advanced in the southern portion of the Site;
however, due to time constraints and availability of contractors, an excavator was brought to
the Site to dig test pits instead. Three soil samples were analyzed for the analyses requested
in the Sampling Work Plan.
4.4 Groundwater Sample Collection
Four monitoring wells and three piezometers were sampled on September 29 and 30, 2021 using
low-flow sampling methods. The wells were evacuated with a low-flow peristaltic pump. New
high-density polyethylene (HDPE) tubing was used for each well, the inlet of which was placed
within the top foot of the water column. Water quality parameters (pH, temperature,
conductivity, and turbidity) were measured with a Horiba U-51 Multiparameter Meter, calibrated
prior to use according to manufacturer’s specifications. Using depth to water and total depth of
well measurements, the casing volume of water for each well was calculated. The wells were
purged until one of the following criteria were met:
• Groundwater quality parameters of pH, temperature, conductivity, and turbidity readings
stabilized to within 10% over three consecutive readings. Readings were taken every five
minutes;
• Three casing volumes were removed; or
• The well no longer produced water.
In two of the three piezometers, groundwater did not recharge quickly enough, so members of
UDEQ DERR measured water levels of other wells around the Site while waiting for the
piezometers to recharge. After letting the piezometers recharge, groundwater samples were taken
immediately. An access agreement was signed and returned to DERR prior to sampling wells
located on the McWane Ductile property, which is located to the west of the Site (Appendix E).
4.5 Soil Sample Collection
Environmental Restoration LLC (ER) and Tetra Tech, EPA’s START contractor, conducted soil
sampling activities on Site with the DERR providing oversight (Tetra Tech, 2022). As directed
by the U.S. EPA, ER excavated 15 test pits to the maximum depth the excavator could reach,
between 10-20 feet below ground surface (bgs). Test pit locations were determined in the field
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 8
based on Site conditions and ability to safely maneuver and operate the excavator. Test pit
locations can be seen in Figure 2 and 3 of Appendix C.
During excavation activities, START photo-documented excavated soil conditions and used a
MultiRAE Pro to screen VOC concentrations in soil throughout investigation activities
(Appendix C). START identified the presence of coal tar in Test Pit (TP) 01, 14, and 15. The
remaining test pits did not reveal the presence of coal tar throughout the soil profile. START
collected grab subsurface samples from three test pits: two test pits that had observed coal tar
(TP01 and TP14) and one test pit without the presence of coal tar as a background (TP13).
4.6 Quality Control Samples
A field duplicate sample was collected for soil and groundwater as stated in the Sampling Work
Plan. For this investigation, the soil field duplicate was analyzed for VOCs, SVOCs, TPH, and
Metals. The groundwater field duplicate was analyzed for VOCs, SVOCs, and Metals. The
duplicate samples were as follows:
• H0AA7 is a field duplicate for H0AA3 for VOCs, SVOCs, and Metals.
o These samples were both taken from MW-18.
• RCT-SS-TP01-DUP is a field duplicate for RCT-SS-TP01 for VOCs, SVOCs,
TPH, and Metals.
A laboratory-prepared trip blank accompanied the soil samples during sample collection
activities and sample storage. The trip blank was sent to the laboratory with the rest of the soil
samples and analyzed for VOCs.
4.7 Equipment Decontamination
Clean disposable, single-use sampling equipment was used to conduct the soil and groundwater
sampling, and was properly disposed of after each use therefore decontamination of equipment
was not necessary.
4.8 Site Restoration
After sample collection was completed, each test pit was properly backfilled with native soil and
the surface was regraded to match the surrounding area.
5.0 LABORATORY ANALYTICAL METHODS
All soil and groundwater samples (including field duplicates and trip blanks) were placed in iced
coolers. The groundwater samples that were being analyzed for metals were shipped in iced

6.0 SUMMARY OF ANALYTICAL RESULTS
A summary of the groundwater analytical results with those constituents detected above the
laboratory limits are provided in Tables 1 and 2 of Appendix B. Analytical results for soil and
groundwater samples can be found in Appendix H. For soil, copies of reports and sample chain-
of-custody records can be found in Appendix C. For groundwater, copies of reports are found in
appendix F and sample chain-of-custody records are provided in Appendix G.
Constituent concentrations in soils were compared to current EPA Removal Management Levels
(RMLs) for industrial soil with target excess cancer risk level of 10-4 and a target hazard quotient
of 1.0 for non-carcinogens (Tetra Tech, 2022). Analytical results for soil were also compared to
current EPA RSLs for industrial soil with a target excess cancer risk level of 10-6 and a target
hazard quotient of 1.0 (Tetra Tech, 2022).
Constituent concentrations in groundwater were compared to current EPA Maximum
Contaminant Levels (MCL) and the EPA Tap Water RSLs. Constituents of concern that did not
have a listed MCL were compared to Tap Water RSLs. However, this shallow groundwater is
Sampling Results Report

highly unlikely to be used for drinking water. There are no drinking water municipal wells
located within four downgradient miles of the Site.
6.1 Soil Data Summary
Analytical results for soil samples are summarized in Enclosure 3 of Appendix C.
• Metals: Arsenic was reported in soil samples RCT-SS-TP01 and RCT-SS-TP13 at
concentrations that exceed the EPA’s industrial RSL. The arsenic concentrations
identified in soil ranged from 6.8 to 7.0 mg/kg. Arsenic was the only contaminant of
concern that exceed EPA screening levels for metals.
• VOCs and TPH: TPH-DRO was detected in two samples at concentrations exceeding
EPA’s industrial RSL and RML [RSL = 440 mg/kg; RML = 440 mg/kg]. TPH-DRO
concentrations in soil samples ranged from 7,100 to 77,000 mg/kg. TPH-ORO and TPH-
GRO were detected at concentrations above EPA’s industrial RSL and RML [ORO RSL:
40,000mg/kg, RML: 40,000mg/kg; GRO RSL: 420mg/kg, RML: 420mg/kg] in sample
RCT-SS-TP14. Naphthalene was detected at concentrations ranging from 1,500 to 46,000
mg/kg in three of the soil samples, which is above EPA’s industrial RML of 590 mg/kg.
Benzene and Ethylbenzene were also detected in soil samples above the industrial RSL.
• SVOCs: 2-Methylnaphthalene, Benzo(a)pyrene, and Dibenzofuran were detected in
RCT-SS-TP14 at concentrations above EPA’s industrial RMLs. 1-Methylnaphthalene,
Benzo(a)anthracene, Benzo(a)pyrene, Benzo(b)fluoranthene, Benzo(k)fluoranthene,
Dibenz(a,h)anthracene, and Indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene were detected in soil samples above
EPA’s industrial RSL.
Periodic headspace air monitoring readings for VOCs were also taken from test pits during the
sampling event (Appendix C, Table 1). Four of the readings were above the short-term exposure
limit (STEL) of 5.0 ppm and the permissible exposure limit (PEL) of 12 ppm. Headspace air
monitoring sample locations with exceedances are identified in Appendix C, Figure 2.
6.2 Groundwater Data Summary
Analytical results for groundwater samples are summarized in Appendix B.
• Metals: Arsenic, Thallium, Lead, Cadmium, Cobalt, Iron, and Manganese were all
detected above reported detection limits. Arsenic and Thallium were detected in
numerous samples at levels above EPA’s MCL and Tap water RSL.
Arsenic was detected above EPA’s MCL of 10 ug/L in four groundwater samples at
concentrations ranging from 15 to 100 ug/L. Thallium was detected above EPA’s MCL
of 2 ug/L in five groundwater samples at concentrations ranging from 6.6 to 15 ug/L.
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 11
• VOCs: Benzene and 1,2-Dichloropropane were the only two VOCs detected above
EPA’s MCL’s (5 and 5 ug/L, respectively). Benzene was detected in MW-33 at 29 ug/L
and 1,2-Dichloropropane was detected in MW-19 at 5.6 ug/L. Naphthalene and phenol
were detected above EPA’s Tap Water RSL. Naphthalene was detected in four samples
and phenol was detected in one sample above the RSL.
• SVOCs: 1,1’-Biphenyl, 1-Methylnaphthalene, 2,4-Dimethylphenol, 2,4-Dinitrotoluene,
and Dibenzofuran were all detected in MW-18 and MW-33 above EPA’s Tap Water
RSL. 2-Methylnaphthalene was detected above the Tap Water RSL in MW-33.
7.0 DATA QUALITY ASSESSMENT
Quality control for the sampling program included using standardized sample collection and
handling methods, documenting pertinent field information, and keeping chain-of-custody
records. The sampling work consisted of two phases of sampling: soil sampling and groundwater
sampling. Soil sampling included the collection of three samples plus one duplicate. Soil samples
went through a data validation process. Groundwater sampling included the collection of seven
groundwater sampling plus one duplicate. Groundwater samples did not go through a data
validation process as instructed by the EPA.
Documentation provided with the laboratory analytical results reports included case narratives;
analytical data with minimum detection limits (MDLs) and reported detection limits (RDLs)
listed for all analyses; surrogate recoveries for GC/MS analyses with laboratory control limits;
chain-of-custody records; and quality control summary, including method blanks, matrix
spike/matrix spike duplicates (MS/MSD) with control limits, laboratory control samples and
duplicates (LCS/LCSD) with control limits; and application of data qualifiers where warranted.
A summary of the quality control assessment for analytical precision is presented below:
• Soil samples were collected and received by ALS Environmental on 9/10/21. These
samples were analyzed following the current revision of SOP 424 generally based on
SW-846 Methods 8000C and 8015D. All initial and continuation calibration criteria were
met. All method blank criteria were met. All laboratory control sample and laboratory
control sample duplicate recoveries and relative percent differences (RPD) were within
acceptable criteria. All matrix spike and matrix spike duplicate recoveries and RPDs were
within acceptance criteria (Appendix G, Enclosure 4).
• Groundwater samples analyzed for metals were sent to Pace Analytical, LLC. These
groundwater samples were analyzed within holding times and of the 22 analytes that
were analyzed for, sodium was outside the standard RPD of 25% (Appendix B, Table 3).
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 12
• Groundwater samples analyzed for VOCs and SVOCs were shipped to CHEMTEX.
Groundwater samples analyzed for SVOCs were analyzed for within holding times;
however, samples being analyzed for VOCs were analyzed outside of holding times by
about four to five hours by the lab. The samples that were analyzed outside of holding
times were given a R qualifier for rejected; however, if the sample contained detections
of an analyte, it was reported with a J qualifier for estimated.
• 43 analytes had a calculable RPD value, and of these 43 analytes there were 12 that were
outside the standard RPD of 25% (Appendix B, Table 4).
8.0 DATA EVALUATION
The following is an overview of the identified contaminants in soil and groundwater sampling
during the course of this sampling event.
8.1 Soil Sample Results
Observations made during the excavation of 15 test pits showed the presence of coal tar in only
the northwest region of the investigated area, where a former solid waste management unit
(SWMU) existed (Appendix C, Enclosure 2). Three of the 15 test pits had observable coal tar:
TP01, TP14, and TP15. The three test pits with observed coal tar all lie within SWMU Area 4
(Figure 2) (ERM, 2010). The other 12 test pits were dug throughout the southern portion of the
property where no SWMUs previously existed and none of these test pits showed the presence of
coal tar.
Headspace readings were taken to screen for VOCs in each test pit except TP15. Exceedances of
the STEL and PEL occurred in TP01, TP04, and TP14. TP01 and TP14 had observable coal tar,
but TP04 did not. VOCs in TP04 were detected in soil 10 feet bgs, but not from soil screened at 3
feet bgs. Groundwater at the Site was encountered at 4 feet bgs. TP04 is within close proximity
and down the hydraulic gradient from the SWMU where TP01 and TP14 were dug; it is possible
groundwater has transported contaminants through the soil to TP04.
In samples from TP01 and TP14 there were exceedances of the EPA RMLs for TPH-DRO, TPH-
ORO, TPH-GRO, 2-methylnaphthalene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenzofuran, and naphthalene.
Additionally there were exceedances of the EPA RSLs for 1-Methylnaphthalene,
benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fruoranthene, dibenz(a,h)anthracene,
indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, benzene, ethylbenzene, and arsenic. All exceedances of EPA RMLs and
RSLs corresponded to samples taken from test pits with observable coal tar, except arsenic.
Arsenic was detected above the RSL in TP13, which did not have coal tar. Arsenic values may
have been high in TP13 due to contamination migrating via the groundwater pathway into areas
without coal tar presence.

8.2 Groundwater Sample Results
Groundwater elevation and survey data was used to calculate the direction of groundwater flow.
Depth to groundwater at the Site ranged from three to ten feet bgs. The data indicates that
groundwater at the Site is generally flowing to the seasonal wetland at the south end of the Site
with a hydraulic gradient of 0.0063 feet/feet (Appendix A, Figure 3).
Arsenic and Thallium were detected above the MCL in MW-22, MW-33, PZ-4 and PZ-5.
Thallium was also detected above the MCL in MW-18. MW-18 and MW-33 are along the
perimeter of the Site in SWMU Area 4, while MW-22, PZ-4 and PZ-5 are down the hydraulic
gradient and have no known former SWMUs near them. This suggests metal contamination
associated with SWMU Area 4 may be transported through groundwater down the hydraulic
gradient. Naphthalene was detected in MW-18, MW-33, PZ-4, and PZ-5 above the EPA Tap
Water RSL; this also suggests contamination is moving via the groundwater pathway. It is also
possible arsenic and thallium levels in groundwater may be impacted by industrial operations at
McWane Ductile.
As mentioned in Section 7.0, groundwater samples that were analyzed for VOCs were analyzed
outside of laboratory holding times. These samples were given an R qualifier; however, analytes,
such as Benzene, that had detections were given a J qualifier. Benzene and 1,2-Dichloropropane
were the only two VOCs above MCLs. 1,2-Dichloropropane was found in MW-19, located next
to the Ironton Canal. Benzene was only found in MW-33, where SWMU Area 4 is. In URS’s
2011 groundwater sampling investigation, they reported benzene as non-detect in MW-18 and
MW-33 as an estimated detection of 42 ug/L (URS, 2012). In this investigation, MW-18 was
also non-detect and MW-33 had a detection of 29 ug/L J. While this groundwater data was
analyzed outside of laboratory holding times, the data is consistent with the URS’s groundwater
sampling event in 2011 (URS, 2012). Analytical data associated with VOCs is presented in this
report for informational purposes only, and does not represent quantitative data for current
groundwater levels.
9.0 CONCLUSIONS
This Sampling Results Report indicates that impacts to soil and groundwater are associated with
known SWMUs found on Site. 15 test pits were dug throughout the southern portion of the
property. Test pits with observable coal tar were only found in the former SWMU Area 4. Soil
samples were taken from two test pits with observable coal tar. These soil samples exceeded
screening levels for numerous contaminants of concern, including TPH, SVOCs, VOCs, and
Metals. Test pits dug during this investigation indicate that soil contamination is limited to the
northwestern portion of the investigated area.
Sampling Results Report
Reilly Tar – UTD009087644 14
Groundwater impacts appear to be most significant near the SWMU in MW-18 and MW-33,
however there still are multiple detections of contaminants of concern in MW-22, PZ-4, and PZ-
5. MW-19 and PZ-6 had little to no detections above screening levels. It is likely that
contamination from SWMUs is migrating via the groundwater pathway on Site.
Both human health and environmental exposure pathways for soil and groundwater are impacted
by contaminants at the Site. The indoor air (soil vapor intrusion) and surface water exposure
pathways do not appear to be impacted by Site contamination at this time. The 2013 Risk
Assessment prepared by URS recommended a Site Management Plan, Environmental Covenant,
and Corrective Action Plan to mitigate risk from Site contaminants. None of these
recommendations have been put in place.
A few quality control/quality assurance issues were identified in this investigation. All effort was
taken to ensure the proper collection of groundwater samples; however, due to uncontrollable
circumstances, many groundwater VOC samples were analyzed outside of holding times by the
lab and flagged as rejected. Analytes that were detected were flagged as estimated and these
values were consistent with groundwater data collected at the Site in 2011. RPDs for soil were
all within acceptable criteria, but groundwater samples exceeded acceptable criteria for
numerous samples.
Most notably this investigation shows that coal tar is unlikely to be present in the southern
portion of the Site. While there was observable coal tar in three of the test pits, these all existed
in the former SWMU Area 4 and most likely do not extend outside of that boundary.

Reilly Coal Tar Removal Assessment, Provo, Utah
U.S. EPA Region 8 START 5, Contract No. 68HE0820D0001
Task Order No. 68HE0820F0071
Task Monitor: Marty McComb, EPA On-Scene Coordinator
Dear Mr. McComb:
The Tetra Tech Inc. (Tetra Tech) Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START) is
submitting this Trip Report – Revision 0 for the Reilly Coal Tar Removal Assessment (the Site) in
Provo, Utah County, Utah for your review and comment. This report summarizes field activities
conducted at the Site during the September 8, 2021 investigation and sampling event.
The scope of this project was to provide technical assistance and sampling support to characterize the
extent and magnitude of contamination in subsurface soils on the 23-acre southern portion of the Site.
This trip report summarizes site activities and findings, including site background and physical location,
site activities, analytical results, and conclusions. Enclosure 1 presents the photolog; Enclosure 2
presents the site figures; Enclosure 3 contains tables; and Enclosure 3 presents the verified laboratory
data package.
SITE BACKGROUND AND PHYSICAL LOCATION
The Site is located at 2555 South Industrial Parkway, Provo, Utah County, Utah (Figure 1). The
geographic coordinates for the approximate center of the site are 40.199167° north latitude, -
111.630154° west longitude. The Site is an abandoned coal tar distillery that operated from 1924 to
2002. Land use in the area is largely industrial. The Ironton Canal constitutes the northern boundary of
the Site and discharges into Spring Creek and Utah Lake’s Provo Bay, approximately 1.5 miles west of
the Site. The southern portion of the Site is now a seasonal wetland, and groundwater tends to flow
westward beneath a nearby industrial facility.
SITE ACTIVITES
Environmental Restoration LLC (ER) and START conducted investigation and soil sampling activities
2
on September 8, 2021. As directed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ER conducted
the excavation of fifteen test pits to the maximum depth the excavator could reach, between 10 feet
below ground surface (bgs) to 20 feet bgs. Test pit locations were selected based on site conditions and
accessibility to safely maneuver and operate the excavator. Test pit locations are identified on Figure 2
and 3.
During excavation activities, START photo documented excavated soil conditions and used a MultiRAE
Pro to screen VOC concentrations in soil throughout investigation activities. Headspace monitoring
results are summarized in Table 1. START identified the presence of coal tar in Test Pit (TP) 01, 14, and
15. The remaining test pits did not reveal the presence of coal tar throughout the soil profile of the test
pit. START collected a grab subsurface sample from three test pits; two test pits that contained coal tar
(TP01 and TP14) and one test pit without the presence of coal tar as a background (TP13).
After completing the documentation of test pit locations, all soil was returned to the original test pit to
match the surrounding grade.
ANALYTICAL RESULTS
The three subsurface soil samples and associated QC samples collected during the site activities were
analyzed by ALS Laboratory in Fort Collins, Colorado. Samples were analyzed for total petroleum
hydrocarbons gasoline range organics (TPH-GRO), total petroleum hydrocarbons diesel range organics
(TPH-DRO), total petroleum hydrocarbons oil range organics (TPH-ORO), Semi-volatile organic
compound s (SVOCs), Target Analyte List (TAL) Metals, and VOCs.
Analytical results were compared to EPA Removal Management Level (RML) for industrial soil with a
target excess cancer risk level of 10-4 and a target hazard quotient of 1.0 for non-carcinogens (EPA
2021a). Analytical results were also compared to EPA regional screening levels (RSL) for industrial soil
with a target excess cancer risk level of 10-6 and a target hazard quotient of 1.0 (EPA 2021b).
In three of the samples, there were exceedances of the EPA RMLs for TPH-DRO, TPH-ORO, TPH-
GRO, 2-methylnaphthalene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenzofuran, and naphthalene. Additionally there were
exceedances of the EPA RSLs for 1-methylnaphthalene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene,
benzo(k)fluoranthene, dibenz(a,h)anthracene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, benzene, ethylbenzene, and
arsenic. Table 2 summarizes the analytical results for the subsurface soil samples. Subsurface soil
sample locations with exceedances are identified on Figure 3.
Table 1 lists the readings documented from the periodic headspace air monitoring for VOCs. Four of the
readings were above the short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 5.0 ppm and the PEL of 12 ppm.
Headspace air monitoring sample locations with exceedances are identified on Figure 2.
CONCLUSIONS
START personnel collected a subsurface soil samples at three separate test pit locations (TP01, TP13, and
TP14). The presence of coal tar was identified in three test pits located in the northwest area of the
investigated area (TP01, TP14, and TP15.
DATA MANAGEMENT
START personnel collected mobile data using ESRI’s Survey123 mobile data collection application to
3
document subsurface soil information, and to collect general photos and other site observations.
All subsurface soil sample data and analytical results were loaded into a Scribe database.

Reilly Tar
Field Activities Report
September 29 & 30, 2021
On September 29 and 30, 2021 Michael Swistak, along with Tom Daniels, Chris Howell, Wes Sandlin,
and Hannah Marty, took groundwater samples from four monitoring wells and three piezometers at the
Reilly Tar Site in Provo, Utah. Groundwater sampling was conducted using low-flow sampling methods.
The wells were evacuated with a low-flow peristaltic pump. New high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
tubing was used for each well, the inlet of which was placed within the top food of the water column.
Water quality parameters (pH, temperature, conductivity, and turbidity) were measured with a Horiba U-
51 Multiparameter Meter, calibrated prior to use according to manufacturer’s specifications. Using depth
to water and total depth of well measurements collected with a water level indicator prior to sampling, the
casing volume of water for each well was calculated. The wells were purged until one of the following
criteria were met:
• Groundwater quality parameters of pH, temperature, conductivity, and turbidity readings
stabilized to within 10% over three consecutive readings. Readings were taken every five
minutes;
• three casing volumes were removed; or
• The well had pumped dry.
In two of the three piezometers, groundwater did not recharge quickly enough, so members of UDEQ
DERR gauged other wells around the Site while waiting for the piezometers to recharge. Wells that were
gauged were as follows: PZ-7, MW-10, and MW-11. After letting the piezometers recharge, groundwater
samples were taken immediately. An access agreement was signed and returned to DERR prior to
sampling wells located on the0 McWane Ductile property, which is located to the west of the Site.
Groundwater samples were collected from MW-18, MW-19, MW-22, MW-33, PZ-4, PZ-5, and PZ-6. A
field duplicate was collected from MW-18. VOC water samples were preserved with HCl and metal water
samples were preserved with HNO3. All samples were placed in a cooler filled with ice after collection.
Scribe was used to print labels and chain-of-custody (CoC) for the samples. Samples were packaged and
shipped as environmental samples via chain-of-custody to an EPA registered CLP laboratory and
analyzed for VOCs, SVOCs, and Metals using EPA approved methods SW-846 8260C, SW-846 8270D,
and SW-846 6010D, respectively. All samples described in the work plan were taken during this sampling
event.
Photos from the sampling event can be seen below.

Reilly Coal Tar Removal Assessment, Provo, Utah
U.S. EPA Region 8 START 5, Contract No. 68HE0820D0001
Task Order No. 68HE0820F0071
Task Monitor: Marty McComb, EPA On-Scene Coordinator
Dear Mr. McComb:
The Tetra Tech Inc. (Tetra Tech) Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START) is
submitting this Trip Report – Revision 0 for the Reilly Coal Tar Removal Assessment (the Site) in
Provo, Utah County, Utah for your review and comment. This report summarizes field activities
conducted at the Site during the September 8, 2021 investigation and sampling event.
The scope of this project was to provide technical assistance and sampling support to characterize the
extent and magnitude of contamination in subsurface soils on the 23-acre southern portion of the Site.
This trip report summarizes site activities and findings, including site background and physical location,
site activities, analytical results, and conclusions. Enclosure 1 presents the photolog; Enclosure 2
presents the site figures; Enclosure 3 contains tables; and Enclosure 3 presents the verified laboratory
data package.
SITE BACKGROUND AND PHYSICAL LOCATION
The Site is located at 2555 South Industrial Parkway, Provo, Utah County, Utah (Figure 1). The
geographic coordinates for the approximate center of the site are 40.199167° north latitude, -
111.630154° west longitude. The Site is an abandoned coal tar distillery that operated from 1924 to
2002. Land use in the area is largely industrial. The Ironton Canal constitutes the northern boundary of
the Site and discharges into Spring Creek and Utah Lake’s Provo Bay, approximately 1.5 miles west of
the Site. The southern portion of the Site is now a seasonal wetland, and groundwater tends to flow
westward beneath a nearby industrial facility.
SITE ACTIVITES
Environmental Restoration LLC (ER) and START conducted investigation and soil sampling activities
2
on September 8, 2021. As directed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), ER conducted
the excavation of fifteen test pits to the maximum depth the excavator could reach, between 10 feet
below ground surface (bgs) to 20 feet bgs. Test pit locations were selected based on site conditions and
accessibility to safely maneuver and operate the excavator. Test pit locations are identified on Figure 2
and 3.
During excavation activities, START photo documented excavated soil conditions and used a MultiRAE
Pro to screen VOC concentrations in soil throughout investigation activities. Headspace monitoring
results are summarized in Table 1. START identified the presence of coal tar in Test Pit (TP) 01, 14, and
15. The remaining test pits did not reveal the presence of coal tar throughout the soil profile of the test
pit. START collected a grab subsurface sample from three test pits; two test pits that contained coal tar
(TP01 and TP14) and one test pit without the presence of coal tar as a background (TP13).
After completing the documentation of test pit locations, all soil was returned to the original test pit to
match the surrounding grade.
ANALYTICAL RESULTS
The three subsurface soil samples and associated QC samples collected during the site activities were
analyzed by ALS Laboratory in Fort Collins, Colorado. Samples were analyzed for total petroleum
hydrocarbons gasoline range organics (TPH-GRO), total petroleum hydrocarbons diesel range organics
(TPH-DRO), total petroleum hydrocarbons oil range organics (TPH-ORO), Semi-volatile organic
compound s (SVOCs), Target Analyte List (TAL) Metals, and VOCs.
Analytical results were compared to EPA Removal Management Level (RML) for industrial soil with a
target excess cancer risk level of 10-4 and a target hazard quotient of 1.0 for non-carcinogens (EPA
2021a). Analytical results were also compared to EPA regional screening levels (RSL) for industrial soil
with a target excess cancer risk level of 10-6 and a target hazard quotient of 1.0 (EPA 2021b).
In three of the samples, there were exceedances of the EPA RMLs for TPH-DRO, TPH-ORO, TPH-
GRO, 2-methylnaphthalene, benzo(a)pyrene, dibenzofuran, and naphthalene. Additionally there were
exceedances of the EPA RSLs for 1-methylnaphthalene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene,
benzo(k)fluoranthene, dibenz(a,h)anthracene, indeno(1,2,3-cd)pyrene, benzene, ethylbenzene, and
arsenic. Table 2 summarizes the analytical results for the subsurface soil samples. Subsurface soil
sample locations with exceedances are identified on Figure 3.
Table 1 lists the readings documented from the periodic headspace air monitoring for VOCs. Four of the
readings were above the short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 5.0 ppm and the PEL of 12 ppm.
Headspace air monitoring sample locations with exceedances are identified on Figure 2.
CONCLUSIONS
START personnel collected a subsurface soil samples at three separate test pit locations (TP01, TP13, and
TP14). The presence of coal tar was identified in three test pits located in the northwest area of the
investigated area (TP01, TP14, and TP15.
DATA MANAGEMENT
START personnel collected mobile data using ESRI’s Survey123 mobile data collection application to
3
document subsurface soil information, and to collect general photos and other site observations.
All subsurface soil sample data and analytical results were loaded into a Scribe database.
