This investigation was completed by our Senior Environmental technician, Ralph Perez on January 23, 2018 and January 24, 2018 under the direction of Donald Martin, Jr., Environmental Professional and Joseph F. Whitaker, Please note, the (CFBC) ash used to cover these roadways is different than common coal ash. The (CFBC) ash is primarily a by-product of a treatment process which reduces pollutants from air emissions. The (CFBC) ash mostly consists of lime and calcium fate Furthomore, the material has a (GA DOT) speciation for use as a graded ‘This Limited Phase II investigation included the making of @USHIMD) shallow cores in order to collect the (CFBC) “ash” material from the top six inches (£6”) below grade along randomly selected roadways from the provided list as furnished by your office. Following the collection of each of the twenty (20) samples, the collected ash material samples were containerized on site, packed in ice under a strict chain of custody, and shipped to Analytical Environmental Services, Inc., an approved and accredited (US EPA) laboratory within the State of Georgia/South Carolina,Page 2 Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion (CFBC) Ash Roads Random Sampling of Roadway Material ‘These samples were then be chemically analyzed for the presence of 1 It should be noted that the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) (SW1311) is used to determine if a leachate of a waste material meets the definition of Environmental Protection Toxicity (EPT) carrying a hazardous waste code as defined under RCRA (40 CFR Part 261) of D004 through D00S2. In selecting the criteria for roadway selection, we were requested to perform fifteen (15) random borings on fifteen different roadways and five (5) borings from the same roadway. Using the list of provided roadways throughout Effingham County, one (1) boring and sample collection was completed within three (3) different roadways within each of the five (5) county districts. Then the remaining five (5) borings and samples were collected from a randomly selected roadway within the county.
