1. Introduction

West Offaly Power (WOP) station is an ESB peat fired station which has been commercially

operational since 2004. The WOP station has one unit, consisting of a boiler, turbine and

auxiliary plant, with an electricity generating capacity of 150MWe. The boiler operates on

peat with gas oil used for start-up. It is scheduled to burn approximately 1,250,000 energy

tonnes of peat each year.

The WOP station is applying to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for a review of

its existing Industrial Emissions (IE) Licence (Licence no. P0611-02), see Attachment-1-1-

Reason for Licence Review. As part of the IE Licence review application, it is necessary to

prepare a Baseline Assessment and Report detailing the findings for submission to the EPA.

The objective of this report is to present the findings of this Baseline Assessment in relation

to soils and groundwater at the WOP site including its associated Ash Disposal Facility

(ADF).

2. Methodology

This report complies with the requirements of Article 22(2) of Directive 2010/75/EU, the

Industrial emissions Directive (IED), which states:

‘Where the activity involves the use, production or release of relevant hazardous

substances and having regard to the possibility of soil and groundwater

contamination at the site of the installation, the operator shall prepare and submit to

the competent authority a baseline report before starting operation of an installation

or before a permit for an installation is updated for the first time after 7 January 2013.

The baseline report shall contain the information necessary to determine the state of

soil and groundwater contamination so as to make a quantified comparison with the

state upon definitive cessation of activities provided for under paragraph 3.’

In addition, Article 22(2) of the IED specifies that a baseline report should contain the

following:

‘information on the present use and, where available, on past uses of the site; and

where available, existing information on soil and groundwater measurements that

reflect the state at the time the report is drawn up or, alternatively, new soil and

groundwater measurements having regard to the possibility of soil and groundwater

contamination by those hazardous substances to be used, produced or released by

the installation concerned.’

Consideration has also been given to the communication from the European Commission

(EC) namely the EC Guidance Concerning Baseline Reports1 under Article 22(2) of Directive

2010/75/EU on Industrial Emissions during the Compilation of this report.

In line with the commission guidance, there are 8 stages required in determining if a baseline

report is required and to produce the baseline report itself. These stages are as follows:

Stages 1-3: Screening Stages to decide whether a baseline report is required;

Stages 4-7: To determine how a baseline report has to be prepared; and

Stages 8: To determine the content of the report.

3. Previous Reports

A number of historical reports were reviewed during the compilation of this baseline soil and

5. Stage 1: Identifying the hazardous substances that are currently

used, produced or released at the installation

5.1 Guidance Requirements

Further to the objectives for Stage 1 detailed in Table 4.1 the following is required

under the Commission guidance:

Produce a list of all hazardous substances dealt with inside the installation

boundary (either as raw materials, products, intermediaries, by-products,

emissions or wastes). This should include all hazardous substances associated

with both the IED Annex I activities and directly associated activities which have

a technical connection to the activities carried out and which could have an effect

on soil or groundwater pollution.

Where hazardous substances are listed under trade names the chemical

constituents should also be identified. For mixtures or compounds the relative

proportion of the largest constituent chemicals should be identified.

5.2 Facility Details

The ESB WOP Station is a 150 MWe combustion plant with the ability to fire on peat.

Gas oil is also used to commence firing at start-up phase. Electricity from the facility is

exported into the National Grid. The primary bulk raw materials includes the fuel to be

combusted. There are also a variety of wastes arising from the peat combustion and

environmental control operations on the site. Ash from the combustion process is

disposed of at the dedicated Ash Disposal Facility (ADF). The sites activities are

controlled under the IE Licence for the Site (Licence P611-02) issued by the EPA and

an AER is prepared and submitted for the site. A list of all substances and mixtures

used and produced at the WOP station has been provided as Attachment-4-6-2-Raw-

Material-Interm-Products to the IE Licence review application.

5.3 Substances used and generated at the Station & ADF

The main substances used or produced in the generation of electricity at WOP include:

Peat which is delivered by train and truck to WOP, enters the station through

the Intermediate Peat Storage area (IPS) which is capable of storing 8400

tonnes of peat; and is transferred by conveyor belt system to the day silos. Peat

is a flammable material.

Gas oil (Diesel) is delivered by road tanker and stored in a 200 m3 bunded

tank. Diesel is a flammable material.

Pulverised Fly Ash (PFA) and Bottom Fly Ash (BFA) which arises from the peat

combustion process are deposited in the stations ADF.

Potentially leachate is generated at the ADF site as a result of the disposal of

ash from the WOP station.

Water from the River Shannon for use as Cooling water and process water.

Cooling water is abstracted and used in a once-through cooling water cycle and

discharged back into the Shannon. Process water is also abstracted and

treated for use in the boiler and subsequently discharge back into the River

Shannon.

A number of other chemical substances are used at WOP to support the water

treatment process (e.g. Ammonia), the wastewater (foul water) treatment

system, the onsite station laboratory and general maintenance works

throughout the station and the ADF. Table 5-1 presents the chemicals stored in

significant volumes on site.

There are a number of surface water discharges from the station and the ADF

which are licensed under the existing IE licence. This includes the discharge of

the cooling water, boiler blowdown, water treatment effluent, treated foul water

from the onsite sewage treatment system and storm water, see further details in

6.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 2 as outlined in the commission guidance requires the following:

From the list produced in Stage 1, determine the potential pollution risk of each

hazardous substance by considering its chemical and physical properties such as:

composition, physical state (solid, liquid, and gas), solubility, toxicity, mobility,

persistence, etc. This information should be used to determine whether or not the

substance has the potential to cause pollution of soil and groundwater. The data,

together with the rationale used to interpret it, should be presented so it is clear in

the baseline report why substances have been excluded or included.

6.2 Identified Hazardous Substances

Based on the materials detailed in Attachment-4-6-2-Raw-Material-Interm-Products and

their quantities stored or produced, the substances considered relevant for this

assessment therefore include:

1. Major chemical stored onsite;

o Caustic Soda (NaOH);

o Sulphuric Acid (H2SO4);

o Caustic Brine;

o Ammonia (NH3);

o Diesel (gas oil);

o Lubricating Oil

o Gear Oil,

o Antifreeze; and

o Waste Oil

2. ADF Leachate (if and when generated); and

3. Operational Discharges such as process and wastewater and the associated site

drainage infrastructure.

7. Stage 3: Assessment of Potential Pollution Risk

7.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 3 as outlined in the commission guidance requires the following:

Each substance brought forward from Stage 2 should be considered in the context

of the site to determine whether circumstances exist which may result in the release

of the substance in sufficient quantities to represent a pollution risk, either as a

result of a single emission or as a result of accumulation from multiple emissions.

7.2 Chemical Storage, Handling & Management

The following storage and handling condition is stipulated under the IE Licence:

3.6 Tank, Container and Drum Storage Areas

3.6.1 All tank, container and drum storage areas shall be rendered

impervious to the materials stored therein. Bunds shall be designed having

regard to Agency guidelines ‘Storage and Transfer of Materials for

Scheduled Activities’ (2004).

3.6.2 All tank and drum storage areas shall, as a minimum, be bunded,

either locally or remotely, to a volume not less than the greater of the

following:

(i) 110% of the capacity of the largest tank or drum within the

bunded area; or

(ii) 25% of the total volume of substance that could be stored within

the bunded area.

3.6.3 All drainage from bunded areas shall be treated as contaminated

unless it can be demonstrated to be otherwise. All drainage from bunded

areas shall be diverted for collection and safe disposal, unless it can be

deemed uncontaminated and does not exceed the trigger levels set for

storm water emissions under Condition 6.13 of this licence.

3.6.4 Within six months of the date of grant of this licence, all inlets, outlets,

vent pipes, valves and gauges must be within a bunded area.

3.6.5 All tanks, containers and drums shall be labelled to clearly indicate

their contents.

In addition, Condition 6.9 of the IEL Licence requires the following:

The integrity and water tightness of all underground pipes, tanks, bunding

structures and containers and their resistance to penetration by water or other

materials carried or stored therein shall be tested and demonstrated by the

licensee within twelve months from date of grant of licence. This testing shall be

carried out by the licensee at least once every three years thereafter and reported

to the Agency on each occasion. This testing shall be carried out in accordance

with any guidance published by the Agency. A written record of all integrity tests

and any maintenance or remedial work arising from them shall be maintained by

the licensee. A report on such tests shall be included in the AER. the site is

required to complete.

The adherence to the above conditions forms part of ongoing environmental monitoring

and management at the site. The most recent bund integrity testing was completed during

2017. All bund are currently compliant , 2017 was the last suite of testing and any failures

were repaired and retested and it is detailed in the AER on an annual basis

The WOP station and ADF is certified to ISO14001. There is an appointed environmental

committee for the site which sits biannually. This committee is responsible for the

implementation of the following good environmental practices aimed at reducing risks

from potential spills and leaks;

All chemicals listed in 6.2 are bunded and/or stored in double skinned containers;

In-house environmental audits are completed regularly ;

All bunds are alarmed;

Bunds are inspected monthly and alarms tested biannually;

Oil tanks are filled to maximum of 75% of their total capacity.

Chemical tanks are filled to maximum of 90% of their total capacity.

7.3 Leachate from the ADF

The ADF is an engineered landfill currently comprising five cells complete with a geo-

synthetic clay liner (GCL) at the base of each cell. Cells 1-3 are already closed and

capped. Cell 4 and 5 are currently in operation. The GCL consists of sodium bentonite

clay, supported by geotextiles, which forms another hydraulic barrier, to prevent leachate

migration to groundwater. The landfill is subdivided into cells which are filled sequentially.

The GCL is overlain with a composite drainage layer (CDL), which collects any leachate

generated. The CDL drains to a leachate collection drainage system at one end of each

cell, which transfers leachate to a leachate monitoring manhole and from there to a

temporary storage lagoon where it is allowed to settle. Leachate when produced in the

cells is managed through both recirculation and discharge. Once the leachate complies

with the ELVs set out in Section B of License P0611-02, it is discharged to the Gowlan

River north of the ADF. Surface water emissions limits for Ash Disposal Lagoon Outfall

(AL-SW1) are included in Schedule B.2 Emissions to Water of the Existing Licence and

are detailed in Table 7-3.

In addition to AL-SW1 monitoring point, there are four groundwater monitoring locations

(ADF-GW3 to ADF-GW6) at the ADF site, see Site plan QS-000139-01-D460-020. These

locations are monitored and reported in the AER with regards to Groundwater Threshold

Values (GTVs) (where available) set out in the European Communities Environmental

Objectives (Groundwater) Regulations, 2010 as amended.

7.4 Operational Discharges

There are five sources of operational discharges to surface water within the station and

one within the ADF. These discharges are include;

1. Cooling water;

2. Screen wash water (surface water intake screen);

3. Boiler blowdown;

4. Water treatment effluent;

5. Treated foul water from the onsite sewage treatment system; and

6. Leachate from the ADF cells.

In addition, there are also discharges from the surface water drainage system i.e. storm

water (SW6 and SW7). Surface water from the station is discharged from emission points

SW1, SW2, SW3, SW4 and SW5 and the emission limits are included in Schedule B.2 of

the IE Licence.

In accordance with EMS 9.1-05, site drainage (including storm water, process and foul)

testing was carried out in 2014, 2017 and 2018. All drainage on site, including drains,

manholes were tested and any defects identified in the 2014 surveys have been repaired.

In 2017 the septic tank, anoxic tank and foul effluent pump sump were emptied and

internal inspections carried out on the septic and anoxic tanks. Internal inspections show

no structural issues in either tank. However, following concerns relating to ground or river

water entering the foul effluent system, inspections and surveys were carried out to

determine the source. The potential area was narrowed down to an estimated 6m gravity

drain from the septic tank to the anoxic tank. The 2017 survey and report recommended

that drains on site should be cleared and washed out, and a drain survey carried out to

determine if ground or river water is entering the drainage system. The surveys including

hydrostatic testing were completed in October 2018. The station is commencing a repair

programme in 2019 in relation to any failed drains from the previous clean and test

programme conducted in 2018

7.5 Stage 3 Summary

The relevant hazardous substances at WOP Station and the ADF identified in Stage 2

include the following:

Major chemical stored onsite;

Leachate; and

Operational Discharges.

The potential for chemicals, ash leachate and process discharges to pose an

environmental risk is low with the current controls, i.e. storage and drainage infrastructure,

the landfill cell design and surface water management systems and monitoring. However,

due to the sensitive nature of the receiving environment namely the River Shannon and

its associated ecological designations4, a Baseline Report has been compiled for this IE

Licence Review application.

4 The station site is adjacent to the River Shannon and is adjacent to the River Shannon Callows Special Area of Conservation (SAC -Site Code 002160) and the Middle Shannon Callows Special Protection Area (SPA – Site Code 004096). The ADF site is over 3.5 km from the Callows SAC/SPA, is 2.5 km from the Mongan Bog SPA/SAC and 1 km from the Fin Lough SAC.

8. Stage 4: Site History

8.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 4 as outlined in the commission guidance requires the following:

The purpose of this section is to determine which of the relevant hazardous

substances identified by Stage 3 have the potential to be present on site in the soil

and groundwater already as a result of activities to date and to determine whether

they are coincident with potential future emission points.

8.2 Site History and Overview

Construction of the original Shannonbridge Generating Station began in the late 1950’s

and there has been continuous production of electricity at the site since 1965 when a 40

MW unit was first commissioned. That station was extended in 1977 and again in 1982

when at which point it had an installed electrical capacity of 125 MW. The EPA issued an

Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) licence (Reg. No. P0626-01) for the

site in April 2003.That station was decommissioned in 2003 and the site was remediated

to the satisfaction of the EPA. The established character and use of the WOP site is

industrial – reflecting its long established use for electricity generation activity.

An environmental exit audit for the original Shannonbridge Generating Station was carried

out in 2009 which assessed soil and groundwater quality beneath the former ash ponds

within the former ESB Power Station at Shannonbridge. Power generating activities

ceased in 2004 and the demolition of the former station buildings was completed in 2009

prior to the exit audit.

The existing station (a 150MW unit) was commissioned by ESB in 2005 as required by

the Electricity Regulation Act 1999 (Public Service Obligations) Order 2002 (SI

No.217/2002). It is a peat-fuelled generation station with an installed capacity of 150 MW

electric. It operates under an IE Licence (P0611-02) issued by the EPA. The footprint of

the previous Shannonbridge units and the former, now decommissioned, ash disposal

facility lie outside the site IE Licenced boundary of WOP generating station.

The site accommodates structures and activities typical of a generating station, including

fuel (principally peat with relatively small volumes of oil used for start-up and combustion

support), storage and handling areas and associated plant; the generation station itself;

and a range of ancillary services including water treatment and management systems,

offices and administration area.

8.2.1 Ash Disposal Facility

The station’s off-site ADF is located on remote Bord na Móna cutaway bogland at

Clonfinlough, Co. Offaly, approximately 8 km from the power station. The ADF site area

extends to approximately 35 ha. The deposited ash comprises bottom ash and fly ash. Of

the total ash arising, approximately 5% is bottom ash and the remainder is fly ash. The

facility is operated by Bord na Móna on the station’s behalf. The ADF operates under the

same IE licence as the station – Licence P0611-02.

Fly ash and bottom ash are transported to the ADF on Bord na Móna’s narrow gauge rail

system in specially designed saddleback wagons. One train (rake), each containing up to

12 wagons, is used daily, Monday – Saturday. Each wagon comprises two covered ash

buckets with combined capacity of approximately 7-9 m³ of ash. The ash is tipped from

the wagons and is placed in the cells using low bearing pressure tracked earthmoving

plant. The ash is placed semi-dry and is wetted to control potential dust emissions. It is

graded to fall during the filling of the cells to ensure that ponding, resulting in leachate

generation, does not occur. A tractor drawn spray tanker or fixed spray system is used in

wetting the ash to aid compaction and further prevent dust nuisance. Leachate produced

in the cells is managed through both recirculation and discharge. Discharge to the Gowlan

River north of the ADF is undertaken in compliance with the ELVs set out in Section B of

License P0611-02. Three cells (Cells 1, 2 and 3) are already closed and capped, and Cell

4 is operational and partially capped. It is proposed to cap the remaining area of Cell 4

during this year and will be completed next year and Cell 5 is also operational.

Cover and capping that is already in place for completed cells comprises a 1 m layer of

peat / subsoil, which was added in a concave mound design. It is revegetated to blend

with the natural landscape. Cells 1-4 have a basal and capping liner (permanent low

permeability Geosynthetic Clay Liner). From Cell 5 all cells will be entirely lined. The

material to be used for the restoration layer will be a mixture of peat and soil and shall be

sourced on site from existing uprisings stockpiles and cutaway bog within the site

boundary. It is anticipated that Cell 6 will be used from late 2019 / early 2020 and will be

actively in-use when the WOP Station enters its co-firing phase transitioning from peat to

biomass. That cell will be required for acceptance of ash up until end of 2020.

It is proposed that a further five engineered landfill cells will be developed (Cells 7, 8, 9,

10 and 11). This will extend the ADF footprint by c.173,130 sq.m. This will accommodate

the disposal of an additional c. 929,200 cubic metres of ash (approximately equivalent to

880,000 tonnes). As noted above, this facility will have no defined date of closure but it is

expected it can accommodate ash arisings for a period in the range of 25 years.

To facilitate the extended operation of the ADF, peat soil within the ADF site area and

adjacent to the landfill footprint itself will also be excavated to a depth of circa one metre

to provide material for the final landfill capping layer.

Cells will continue to be capped as they are filled.

8.3 Exit Audit of the former ESB Power Station at Shannonbridge

The environmental exit audit which was as carried out in 2009 assessed soil and

groundwater quality beneath the former ash ponds within the former ESB Power Station

at Shannonbridge. The audit concluded the following:

Soil and water quality in the subject area is not considered to pose a risk to future

site users in a continued industrial/commercial landuse scenario assuming

groundwater and surface water (north and south drains) within the subject area

will not be used as drinking water.

The subject area is considered to be “asbestos safe” as per the ESB brownfield

policy.

The risk to controlled waters from shallow soil, shallow groundwater and surface

water quality in the subject area is considered to be low.

8.4 WOP EIS 2001

An Environmental Impact Statement (ESB, 2001) for the WOP station detailed that:

“Ammoniacal nitrogen was found to exceed the EU Drinking Water Limit for

ammonia of 0.3 mg/l in all eight groundwater samples. Concentrations were

between 3.5 mg/l and 11.4 mg/l. Ammoniacal nitrogen may be naturally present in

groundwater as it is formed by the microbial reduction of other nitrogen

compounds. However, it can also be sourced from foul and industrial wastes that

may be released to the groundwater by septic tanks, agricultural slurry pits, etc.

The widespread occurrence and relative close range of concentrations would

suggest that the ammoniacal nitrogen levels in the groundwater at the site

represent the background concentration range.

Elevated concentrations were recorded for nitrite (0.05 mg/l, 0.12 mg/l and 0.14

mg/l, which exceed the EU Drinking Water Limit of 0.03 mg/l), Chemical Oxygen

Demand (44 mg/l to 241mg/l, which exceed the EU Surface Water (A3) Limit of 40

mg/l,), faecal coliforms (between 1 cfu/100 ml and 23 cfu/100 ml) and total

coliforms (all >180 cfu/100 ml). These determinands, in a similar manner to

ammoniacal nitrogen, may be associated with foul water discharges.

However, foul water discharge seems unlikely as a source of groundwater

contamination given the location of the site. The elevated Chemical Oxygen

Demand may be due to the presence of significant levels of Organic Carbon in the

water. The organic material in the water would provide a substrate for bacterial

metabolism and this may expand the presence of the coliforms. Where elevated

levels of these four determinants were recorded, they are considered to be

representative of the higher end of the natural background range.

A zinc concentration of 2,810 μg/l, exceeding the EU Drinking Water Limit (1,000

μg/l), was reported in one groundwater sample. This concentration is well above

the other groundwater samples where the highest concentration was 136 μg/l.

Calcium and Iron were found to exceed their respective EU Drinking Water Limits

in two samples. Potassium exceeded the EU Drinking Water Limit (12 mg/l) in two

samples with concentrations of 29 mg/l and 33 mg/l. Elevated concentrations of

calcium, Iron and potassium are thought to be associated with the overburden and

bedrock chemistry and are thus representative of the higher end of the natural

background range. Five of the seven groundwater samples had manganese

concentrations above the EU Drinking Water Limit (50 μg/l) with concentrations

ranging from 81 μg/l in to 699 μg/l. Elevated manganese concentrations are also

thought to relate to bedrock and groundwater geochemistry and are considered to

represent natural background concentrations.

Elevated concentrations of DRO, mineral oil, total phenol and total PAH were

reported in one to two groundwater samples. These elevated hydrocarbon

concentrations are generally not significantly above the concentrations

encountered in the other groundwater samples and may be due to the introduction

of hydrocarbons during fieldwork. It is also possible that the hydrocarbons

encountered are related to the natural levels and are at the upper end of the

natural range.

Hydrocarbons can be derived from the natural breakdown of larger naturally

occurring organic molecules and the soil samples may, therefore, be more organic

rich than the other samples tested.

In general, while some analytes were at the higher end of their naturally occurring

ranges, the groundwater did not show significant contamination.”

8.5 WOP EIAR 2017

An EIAR was prepared in 2018 to support a planning application to transition WOP from

peat to biomass. As part of this EIAR, environmental soil and groundwater samples were

collected from existing and new boreholes and trial pits in 2017. Samples were analysed

by a UKAS ISO 17025 accredited lab. Results are discussed and incorporated in Section

6 below.

8.6 Site Infrastructure

A certified EMS is in place with procedures for inspection and maintenance of storage

equipment, bunds and drains. The following are the relevant EMS procedures followed on

site;

EMS 11.2-04 Procedure for Testing Bunds Safety Shower Checks.

EMS 11.2-12 Procedure for Inspection and Cleaning of Interceptor.

EMS 9.1-05 Procedure for Maintenance of Drains, Sewers and Pipelines.

8.7 Incident History

The site has a long history of industrial use. However no major incidents, with the

potential to negatively impact soil or water quality, have occurred on site since the

commissioning of WOP station in 2004. Minor incidents have been reported to the EPA as

they occurred within the AERs.

It is noted that a non-compliance in relation to a breach of a quarterly ELV for ammonia

occurred as sampling was undertaken after a condensate polisher regeneration (ammonia

ELV is 50mg/l for a CPP regen) in 2017. WOP station subsequently undertook and

submitted to the EPA additional analysis on this sampling point for approximately two

months to demonstrate compliance with the required ELV. No further action was required.

9. Stage 5: Environmental Setting

9.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 5 as outlined in the commission guidance, requires the following:

As a result of Stages 1-4 the locations on the site are identified where future

emissions could occur and where emissions may already have occurred. Stage 5

aims to determine the fate of any such emissions, the strata and groundwater

which may be affected and to establish the extent and depth to which the land

needs to be characterised. This requires an understanding of the characteristics of

the ground and groundwater at the site as well as the surrounding areas that may

influence the site of the installation itself.

Where available, site specific data should be used. When not available use

reference data, qualitative/subjective assessment, inferred or extrapolated data. In

each case the source of the data should be identified, and where this is not site

specific justification for the use of the selected data and include details of any

margins of error which apply.

9.2 Topography

Power Station: West Offaly Power is located approximately 25 km south of Athlone and

approximately 15 km east of Ballinasloe. Immediately south of the site, the River Suck

flows into the River Shannon. The River Shannon is the dominant feature of the

landscape, with all other water bodies in the area flowing into it. The power station site is

at an elevation of 35m – 45m above OD.

Ash Disposal Facility Site: The station’s off-site ADF is located on remote Bord na

Móna cutaway bogland near Derrylahan, Co. Offaly, approximately 8 km from the power

station. The ADF site area extends to approximately 35 ha. The ADF consists of full cells

(which have been filled to capacity and are now capped) and active ash cells (cells still in

storage of milled peat. The ground level in the disposal area lies between 35 – 40 m OD

(ESB, 2001). As part of the proposed planning to transition of WOP from peat to biomass

fuel, the ADF will be expanded and will extend over an additional circa 17.3 ha.

Shannonbridge Power Station). Part of the site to the northwest sits on Peat Gleys Basic

parent materials with the reminder of the site comprising Grey Brown Podzolics and

surface water and Ground water Gleys derived chiefly from limestone. The main WOP

station site is indicated as being underlain by Alluvium undifferentiated gravelly subsoil to

the west, with Basic esker sands and gravels to the east. The central area of the site

comprises Made ground.

Information from GSI indicates the underlying bedrock is Dinantian Upper Impure

Limestone. Teagasc have identified the subsoil beneath the west of the site as being

Alluvium. The eastern portion of the site is underlain by Till derived chiefly from limestone.

Shallow groundwater is present in the soils above the bedrock. Due to the nature and

extent of this groundwater, this water is not classified as an aquifer by the GSI. The

bedrock aquifer beneath the site is classed as Locally Important (Ll) which is moderately

productive only in local zones. The bedrock below the site is karstic meaning that high

groundwater flows and yields may be encountered in discrete zones. GSI mapping

indicates that the station site is located on two main vulnerability classes, Moderate

vulnerability to the west and High vulnerability to the east. Overall, the flow direction is

likely to be towards the Shannon River to the west and southwest of the groundwater

body.

The GSI database indicates that the nearest two groundwater abstraction wells are

located between 1 - 1.5 km to the north of the site (Raghra Townland adjacent to

Shannonbridge).

Ash Disposal Facility: The ADF is located on Cut-raised Bog cutaway/cutover soils. The

Subsoils beneath the ADF site are Cutover peat.

The GSI website indicates the site is underlain partially to the northwest by the Navan

Beds (Diantian Courcetyan dark Limestone, Mudstone and Sandstone) and mainly to the

southwest by the Ballystein Formation comprising Dark Muddy limestones and Shale. The

GSI Sheet No. 15 indicates that the site is underlain by Carboniferous Argillaceous

Bioclastic limestones (ABL) of Courceyan age. The ABL consists of dark grey

fossiliferous, argillaceous calcarenites interbedded with thin calcareous shales. The Sheet

indicates the presence of a north-east south-west trending fault approximately 1km to the

north of the site.

The underlying bedrock aquifer is classified by the GSI as a locally important aquifer

(bedrock which is moderately productive only in local zones) with ‘low’ groundwater

vulnerability. There are no Source Protection Zones within 5 km radius of the site. Based

on groundwater elevation data collected in November 2000, groundwater flow direction is

towards the Gowan River northwest of the site.

The WOP station site and the WOP ADF site are located on the Clara groundwater body

(IE_SH_G_240) and is categorised as having a Good status

9.4 Hydrology

Power Station: Both the power station and the ADF are within the Shannon System

catchment and surface drainage ultimately enters this system. Both the Suck and the

Shannon Upper waterbodies are located upstream of WOP station and its discharges.

Process and drainage water from the station site is discharged directly to the River

Shannon.

The Water Framework Directive (WFD) status of the Shannon (Shannon (Lower) 010) is

unassigned. There are seven discharges from the site to the (Shannon (Shannon (Lower)

_010 under the existing IE licence and all are monitored in accordance with IE Licence

No. P0611-02.

Ash Disposal Facility: The ADF is located within an area of cutaway Bord na Móna

commercial peatland located at Derrylahan. There is one surface water discharge point

under the IE licence from the ADF. This discharge point is located on the Blackwater

(Shannonbridge) _020 (known also as the Gowlan River), a tributary of the River

Blackwater, and north of the ADF. The WFD status of the Blackwater (Shannonbridge)

_020 is good.

Any leachate discharged from the ADF to the Blackwater (Shannonbridge) _020 is done

under the existing IE licence and is monitored in accordance with IE Licence No. P0611-

10. Stage 6: Site Characterisation

10.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 6 as outlined in the Commission guidance requires the following:

A description of the site should in particular demonstrate the location, type, extent

and quantity of historic pollution and potential future emissions sources noting the

strata and groundwater likely to be affected by those emissions.

10.2 Summary of Groundwater Quality, AECOM Risk Screening and Technical

Assessment, 2015

A comprehensive risk based screening assessment of groundwater quality beneath the

site was undertaken by AECOM in 2015 to address Condition 6.14.3 of the IE License. All

available reports and data were considered up to 2015 as part of this assessment.

AECOM produced the following two reports as part of this assessment and in consultation

with the EPA. The reports were completed in accordance with the EPA Guidance on the

Authorisation of Discharges to Groundwater (2011);

AECOM, Risk Screening and Technical Assessment, IEL P0611-02,

Ref:47092932, 20 August 2015 (Attachment-7-1-3-3-Rec Env Report_ Hydrogeo

Report);

AECOM WOP Further Environmental Assessment 2015, Ref 47093108, 13

November 2015 (Attachment-7-1-3-3-Rec Env Report_Hydrogeo Report_2).

The AECOM reports assessed available analytical groundwater data against screening

criteria generated from the following hierarchy;

European Communities Environmental Objectives (Groundwater) Regulations

(GTV), 2011 (Statutory Instrument No. 389 of 2011); and

Environmental Protective Agency’s draft Interim Guideline Values (IGVs) for the

Protection of Groundwater, 2003.

Elevated concentrations of Arsenic, Nickel, Sulphate, Potassium and Manganese were

reported above the screening criteria at the Station and the ADF. Table 10-1 presents the

exceedances identified by AECOM of 2014 analytical results (the most recent available

data set).

*2015 AECOM reports

Since 2011, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) have not been detected at

concentrations exceeding the LOD (1 mg/l). However, it should be noted that the LOD is

greater than the GAC of 0.01 mg/l.

The following are the main conclusions detailed in the AECOM2015 reports:

Potential risks to groundwater were identified from elevated concentrations of

arsenic, nickel, potassium and sulphate. Further monitoring is recommended to

identify any significant upward trends and to confirm or otherwise the potential

risks and to demonstrate compliance with the Groundwater Regulations.

Given that the elevated concentrations of arsenic, nickel, potassium and sulphate

were less than100 times the GAC, the risk to the overall status of the groundwater

body is considered to be low.

An area to the south of the site (the station) is identified as a potential risk to

controlled waters, as it contains landfilled waste materials from the former power

station. It is recommended that a groundwater sample is collected down hydraulic

gradient of this area to assess possible impact to the groundwater body and to

demonstrate compliance with the Groundwater Regulations.

Bunds were observed to be in a good condition. Bund integrity testing was

completed in 2014 and it was reported to AECOM that all bunds passed the

respective integrity tests. Good environmental management practices are in place

to reduce the risk of spills to the environment.

As each cell within the landfill reaches capacity, it is capped with a permanent low

permeability GCL and as a result, leachate production at the ADF will eventually

cease.

It is recommended that alternative analysis for hydrocarbons is used with an LOD

<10ug/L to screen for potential hydrocarbons.

The EPA requested further information and this was furnished through a second report

issued (AECOMWOP Further Environmental Assessment 2015, Ref 47093108) in

November 2015. To address the EPA queries, additional testing and assessment was

completed as part of this report.

AECOM reported that the sampling methodology undertaken to collect groundwater

samples likely contributed to the elevated concentrations detected. Their additional

assessment of the ADF leachate determined that Arsenic and Nickel concentrations were

below their respective GAC. Consequently the potential risk from the ADF leachate to the

underlying groundwater was considered to be low.

Elevated potassium concentrations were reported at the ADF and the station indicating a

potential risk to the underlying groundwater. The risk is determined as low given that the

elevated concentrations are 100 less than the GAC for potassium and associated with

natural background levels (EIS 2001).

The following conclusions were drawn by AECOM following their additional sampling,

testing and assessment undertaken in “the Former Dump Area” of the former station:

Asbestos Containing Material (ACMs) were present in eleven of the seventeen

test pits excavated. All ACM observed was beneath the surface and mostly in a

bound form. Lose fibrous material was also encountered at depths of between

1.0m and 2.1meters below ground level. No ACM was observed on the surface.

Given that the observed ACM was in all cased buried, that no ACM was observed

on the ground surface and that the area has since been overlain by Bord na Mona

railway tracks, the generation of airborne asbestos fibres from the subject area

was considered unlikely.

A management system was recommended to be put in place to manage the risks

posed by the identified ACM, particularly in relation to any future excavation works

in the vicinity of the subject area.

10.3 ESB 2017 Site Investigation Soil Analytical Results

A geotechnical site investigation was undertaken in 2017 to support the Environmental

Impact Assessment (EIA) process in relation to the proposed transition to a full biomass

generating station and increasing the capacity of the ADF.

The extent of the investigation included boreholes by cable percussion boring and rotary

drilling, temporary groundwater well installations, trial pits, slit trenches, soil and

groundwater sampling, in-situ and laboratory testing, and the preparation of a factual and

geotechnical interpretative report on the findings.

Six temporary5 groundwater monitoring wells (WOP BH2/17, WOP BH4/17, WOP BH5/17,

WOP BH6/17, WOP BH9/17 and WOP BH11/17) were installed at the station. Three

temporary groundwater monitoring wells were installed at the ADF (WOP_ADF BH01/17,

WOP_ADF BH02/17, WOP-ADF BH03/17) and four IE Licence groundwater monitoring

wells (WOP ADF GW3, WOP ADF GW4, WOP ADF GW5, WOP ADF GW6).

As part of the Site Investigation, soil samples were collected from boreholes and trial pits

excavated across both the station and the ADF. Samples were transported under

standard Chain of Custody and analysed by a UKAS ISO17015 accredited laboratory.

Soil samples were collected from shallow soil at the Station and the ADF and compared

against risk based Generic Assessment Criteria (GAC) to assess the potential risk to

future site users. No significant visual or olfactory signs of contamination were identified

during the course of the site investigation. Soil analytical results are presented in

Appendix 3 and laboratory results presented in Appendix 4.

The GACs used are UK industry standard screening values produced by LQM/CIEH

(Land Quality Management Limited and Chartered Institute of Environmental Health)

5 It is planned that these wells will be decommissioned prior to the commencement of future construction works

Suitable 4 Use Levels (S4UL6) developed for a range of significant contaminant

parameters and generic land use settings including; in this case, the continued end-use

as a commercial land use and based on 1% Soil Organic Matter. The S4UL GACs are

generic toxicology based health criteria and represent an estimated contaminant

concentration, below which would likely pose a minimal potential risk to Human Health. If

detected concentrations are below the GAC, then the potential risks are not considered

significant. Concentrations above the GAC do not mean a significant risk is present, but

that further consideration is required in order to assess the potential residual risk to

Human Health.

This risk based approach is considered consistent with the Irish EPA guidance on

assessment of contaminated land at EPA Licenced facilities and a best practice approach

in Ireland for the assessment of residual risks associated with ground contamination.

Soil samples were tested for a range of the following parameters;

Metals including Aluminium, Arsenic, Barium, Cadmium, Chromium, Copper, Iron,

Lead, Mercury, Molybdenum, Nickel, Selenium and Zinc

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHS)

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether

Benzene, Toluene, Xylene, Ethylbenzene

Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH)

Ammonicial Nitrogen,

Chloride,

Orthophosphate

Sulphate

Semi Volatile Organic Matter (SVOC)

Volatile Organic Matter (VOC)

Analytical results for all 17 samples collected and analysis at the Station and 16 samples

collected at the ADF, were below their respective GAC or the laboratory LOD. This,

together with the absence of any significant visual or olfactory signs of contamination,

indicate the potential risk to Human Health is low.

10.3.1 ESB 2017 SI Groundwater Monitoring Results

Following the completion of the 2017 Site Investigation, ESB undertook a groundwater

monitoring round sampling all groundwater wells present at the Station and the ADF.

An analysis of the groundwater monitoring data undertaken as part of the groundwater

monitoring round at the WOP station compared to the Groundwater Threshold Values

(GTVs) in the European Communities Environmental Objectives (Groundwater)

Regulations, 2010, (S.I. No. 9 of 2010) and surface EQS. The following parameters were

tested;

TPH CWG

BTEX

VOC and SVOC

Organochlorine & Organophosphorus Pesticides

Phenols

Ammoniacal Nitrogen

Groundwater samples were collected at 7 locations across the Station site. The following

table presents the exceedances at the Station wells when compared to their respective

screening criteria. All other parameters were either not detected above the laboratory

lower limit of detection (LOD) or their respective screening criteria and are therefore not

considered further. Analytical results are presented in Appendix 5 and laboratory results

presented in Appendix 6.

Elevated dissolved aluminium concentrations (291 ug/l -1083 ug/l) were detected above

the GTV screening criteria (150ug/l) in 3 wells (BH02, BH05 and BH06) sampled at the

former ash landfill at the station. The concentrations detected indicate a potential risk to

the underlying groundwater. However the potential risk to the underlying groundwater is

low given the environmental site setting and that the elevated concentrations are 100 less

than the screening criteria for Aluminium.

Iron concentrations were found to be elevated in 3 wells (BH04, PSGW1 and PSGW2). It

has been previously assessed and reported by AECOM that elevated levels of Iron are

associated with overburden and bedrock chemistry in the area, see Section 9.4 above.

Consequently, the potential risk to the underlying groundwater is considered low given the

environmental site setting and the naturally elevated background concentrations.

Four of the seven groundwater samples had manganese concentrations above the

screening criteria (50 μg/l) with concentrations ranging from 203 μg/l in to 928 μg/l.

Elevated manganese concentrations are also thought to relate to bedrock and

groundwater geochemistry as previously reported by AECOM and are considered to

represent natural background concentrations, see Section 9.4 for further detail.

Dissolved sodium concentrations were detected above the screening criteria at three well

locations (WOP BH02/17, WOP BH06/17). Concentrations are only slightly elevated and

the potential risk to groundwater is therefore considered low.

Sulphate was detected above the screening criteria (187.5ug/l) in 3 wells (WOP BH04/17,

WOP BH05/17, WOP-PS-GW2) with concentrations ranging between 191ug/l and

310.9ug/l. Sulphate concentrations are only slightly elevated above the screening criteria

and therefore the potential risk to groundwater is low.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen (N) concentrations range 0.04mg/l and 21.29mg/l above the

screening criteria (0.175mg/l) in all 7 samples tested at the station. Similar concentrations

were recorded at the ADF as well as at Lanesborough Power Station and associated ADF

also sent in peat environment. Given the general ranges detected across in similar peat

locations, this indicates natural background levels (associated with decaying peat

material) are elevated in this environment.

Similar to groundwater monitoring results reported by AECOM in 2015, Arsenic

concentrations in groundwater at the ADF were detected above the GTV screening

criteria (7.5ug/l) in 4 of the 7 samples analysed. Concentrations ranged between 35ug/l

and 49.5ug/l. AECOM reported in their The Risk Screening and Technical Assessment

Report that the source of the elevated arsenic concentration is unclear but it may be

associated with elevated background concentrations often associated with the regional

geology in the area (impure limestones); or the ash landfilled at the site. Further testing of

ash leachate, undertaken by AECOM and reported in their ESB WOP Further

Assessment report, 2015, determined that arsenic was not a significant leachate from the

ash material. Consequently, the source of the arsenic is considered to be natural and the

potential environmental risk to groundwater is low.

Iron concentrations were found to be elevated in all 7 wells with concentrations ranging

between 1203ug/l and 9159ug/l. It has been previously been assessed and reported by

AECOM that there are elevated natural background levels of Iron associated with

overburden and bedrock chemistry in the area, see Section 9.4 above. Consequently, the

potential risk to the underlying groundwater is considered low given the environmental site

setting and the naturally elevated background concentrations.

All seven groundwater samples had manganese concentrations above the screening

criteria (50μg/l) with concentrations ranging from 56μg/l to 3672μg/l. Elevated manganese

concentrations are also thought to relate to bedrock and groundwater geochemistry as

previously reported by AECOM and are considered to represent natural background

concentrations.

Dissolved Nickel concentrations (20mg/l) were detected above the screening criteria

(15mg/l) at one well location (WOP ADF GW5). Concentrations are only slightly elevated

and the potential risk to groundwater is therefore considered low.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen (N) concentrations range 2.03mg/l and 9.22mg/l above the GTV of

0.175ug/l in all 7 samples tested at the station. Similar concentrations were recorded at

the ADF as well as at Lanesborough Power Station and associated ADF also set in peat

environment. Given the general ranges detected across in similar peat locations, this

indicates natural background levels are elevated in this environment.

10.4 Groundwater Monitoring Result 2014 -2017- AER Review

A review of the most recent groundwater monitoring data collected as part of the annual

monitoring program, has been undertaken for the purpose of this Baseline Report. Annual

sampling results are collated for the period 2014 to 2017. Monthly and/or quarterly

10.4.2 Station – PS - GW2

PSGW-2 is located outside the boundary of the station in the old Shannonbridge ash

pond and operated under the surrendered IPC Licence 626- outside the IEL boundary of

P0611-02. An exit audit for the ash pond was submitted and accepted by the EPA.

Table 10-11 outlines the annual monitoring result in relation to PS-GW2 for the period

2014-2017 for Total Nitrogen, Ammonia, COD and Phosphorus and Nitrates.

across in similar peat locations, this indicates natural background levels are elevated in

this environment.

Table 10-12 and Table 10-13 outline the 2017 monthly and quarterly sampling monitoring

results in relation to PS-GW2. During the 2017 groundwater monitoring undertaken at PS-

Manganese.

Similar too concentrations recorded at the station, manganese concentrations were

reported above the screening criteria (50μg/l) at PS-GW2. Elevated concentrations range

from 314μg/l to 550μg/l. Elevated manganese concentrations are related to bedrock and

represent natural background concentrations. Consequently the potential risk to

groundwater is low.

Potassium concentrations ranging between 24.9ug/l and 27.6ug/l were reported between

2014 and 2017 at PS-GW2. Although the reported concentrations are above the

screening criteria (5mg/l) they are associated with natural background levels (WOP EIS

2001). Consequently they are not considered significant and the potential risk to

groundwater is low.

Potassium, Iron and Manganese concentrations were reported in the AER above their respective screening criteria between 2014 and 2017.

Potassium concentrations above the screening criteria (5 mg/l) range between 9.69mg/l and 26.7mg/l. Manganese concentrations above the

screening criteria (50ug/l) range between 96.9ug/l and 115ug/l. Elevated Iron concentrations above its screening criteria (0.2mg/l) range

between 0.902mg/l and 2.19mg/l. Elevated concentrations for all three parameters are attributed to natural background levels and are

considered to pose a low potential risk to groundwater.

Where GTVs/IGV are available for metals, the results are consistently below the GTV with the exception of iron, arsenic, nickel and manganese

when compared to the GTVs/ IGVs.

Iron, Arsenic, Nickle and Manganese concentrations were detected above their respective screening criteria. Iron concentrations were detected

at 0.59mg/l exceeding its IGV (0.2mg/l). Arsenic concentrations ranged between 9.4mg/l and 18.1mg/l exceeding the GTV (7.5mg/l). Nickel

concentrations reported between 2014 and 2017 ranged between 15.3ug/l and 21.9ug/l exceeding its screening criteria (15ug/l). Manganese

concentrations exceed its screening criteria (50ug/l) with concentrations ranging between 51.8ug/l and 95.1ug/l. In all cases, concentrations

were only slightly exceeding their respective screening criteria. Consequently, the potential risk to groundwater is low.

10.5 Summary of Soil Site Characteristics

No major spills and/or leaks of any chemicals or oils have been reported since

development of the site. Minor events have been reported to the EPA and addressed in

agreement with them.

An area to the south of the site (the station) was identified by AECOM as a potential risk

to controlled waters, as it contains landfilled waste materials from the former power

station. As part of this additional assessment, AECOM reported the following in relation to

soil;

Asbestos Containing Material (ACMs) were present in eleven of the seventeen

test pits excavated. All ACM observed was beneath the surface and mostly in a

bound form. Lose fibrous material was also encountered at depths of between

1.0m and 2.1meters below ground level. No ACM was observed on the surface.

Given that the observed ACM was in all cased buried, that no ACM was observed

on the ground surface and that the area has since been overlain by Bord na Mona

railway tracks, the generation of airborne asbestos fibres from the subject area

was considered unlikely.

Soil samples collected during the 2017 Site Investigation at the Station and the ADF were

below their respective GAC or the laboratory LOD. This, together with the absence of any

significant visual or olfactory signs of contamination, indicate the potential risk to Human

Health is low.

10.6 Summary of Ground Water Site Characteristics

The Risk Screening and Technical Assessment Report prepared by AECOM, in 2015 and

reviewed by the EPA, identified elevated concentrations of Arsenic, Nickel, Sulphate,

Potassium and Manganese above their respective screening criteria at the Station and

the ADF.

Elevated concentrations of Sulphate, Potassium and Manganese were attributed to

elevated natural background levels with an overall low risk identified to the underlying

groundwater bodies at the Station and the ADF.

AECOM reported that the sampling methodology undertaken to collect groundwater

samples may have contributed to the elevated Arsenic and Nickel concentrations

detected. Additional assessment of the ADF leachate determined that Arsenic and Nickel

concentrations were below their respective screening criteria. Overall, AECOM concluded

that elevated Arsenic and Nickel concentrations were less than 100 times the GAC and

the risk to the groundwater body is reported as low.

Further groundwater monitoring was undertaken in 2017 by ESB at the Station and the

ADF.

Elevated aluminium concentrations were detected at the Station, however the potential

risk to the underlying groundwater is low given the environmental site setting and that the

elevated concentrations are 100 less than the screening criteria for Aluminium.

Iron concentrations were found to be elevated. It has been previously been assessed and

reported by AECOM that there are elevated natural background levels of Iron associated

with overburden and bedrock chemistry in the area, see Section 9.4 above.

Consequently, the potential risk to the underlying groundwater is considered low given the

environmental site setting and the naturally elevated background concentrations.

Groundwater samples collected at the Station had manganese concentrations above the

screening criteria. Elevated manganese concentrations are also thought to relate to

bedrock and groundwater geochemistry as previously reported by AECOM and are

considered to represent natural background concentrations. The potential risk to the

underlying groundwater is therefore considered low.

Dissolved sodium concentrations at the station were detected above the screening criteria

at three well locations at the station. Concentrations are only slightly elevated and the

potential risk to groundwater is therefore considered low.

Sulphate concentrations are only slightly elevated above the screening criteria and

therefore the potential risk to groundwater is low at the station.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen concentrations were reported above the screening criteria in all

samples tested at the station. Similar concentrations were recorded at the ADF as well as

at Lanesborough Power Station and associated ADF also sent in peat environment. Given

the general ranges detected across in similar peat locations, this indicates natural

background levels (associated with decaying peat material) are elevated in this

environment.

Similar to groundwater monitoring results reported by AECOM in 2015, Arsenic

concentrations at the ADF in groundwater were detected above the screening criteria.

AECOM reported in their The Risk Screening and Technical Assessment Report that the

source of the elevated arsenic concentration is unclear but it may be associated with

elevated background concentrations often associated with the regional geology in the

area (impure limestones); or the ash landfilled at the site. Further testing of ash leachate,

undertaken by AECOM and reported in their ESB WOP Further Assessment report, 2015,

determined that arsenic was not a significant leachate from the ash material.

Consequently, the source of the arsenic is considered to be natural background levels

and the potential environmental risk to groundwater is low.

As with Iron concentrations at the Station, Iron at the ADF was found to be elevated. It

has been previously been assessed and reported by AECOM that there are elevated

natural background levels of Iron associated with overburden and bedrock chemistry in

the area. Consequently, the potential risk to the underlying groundwater is considered low

given the environmental site setting and the naturally elevated background

concentrations.

Manganese concentrations were reported above the screening criteria at the ADF.

Elevated manganese concentrations are also thought to relate to bedrock and

groundwater geochemistry as previously reported by AECOM and are considered to

represent natural background concentrations. The potential risk to groundwater is

therefore considered to be low.

Dissolved Nickel concentrations at the ADF were detected above the screening criteria at

one well location. Concentrations are only slightly elevated and the potential risk to

groundwater is therefore considered low.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen concentrations detected at the ADF were above the screening

criteria. Similar concentrations were recorded at the Station as well as at Lanesborough

Power Station and associated ADF also set in peat environment. Given the general

ranges detected across in similar peat locations, this indicates natural background levels

are elevated in this environment.

Annual groundwater results collected at the Station and reported in the AER are generally

below their respective GTVs where these screening criteria are available.

No significant groundwater quality issues were identified at PS-GW1. Nitrate

concentrations were slightly elevated in 2015, however concentrations were below the

lower limit of detections in subsequent years.

PSGW-2 is located outside the boundary of the station in the old Shannonbridge ash

pond and operated under the surrendered IPC Licence 626- outside the IEL boundary of

P0611-02. An exit audit for the ash pond was submitted and accepted by the EPA.

Ammoniacal Nitrogen as is elevated in all samples reported between 2014 and 2017

ranging between 1.79mg/l and 6.28mg/l. Similar concentrations were recorded at the

Station as well as at Lanesborough Power Station and its associated ADF which is also

set in peat environment. Given the general ranges detected across in similar peat

locations, this indicates natural background levels are elevated in this environment.

Sulphate has exceeded the screening criteria at PSGW-2 on two occasions in 2017. The

concentrations are only slightly exceeding the screening criteria and consequently the

potential risk to groundwater is low.

Manganese concentrations were reported above the screening criteria at PS-GW2.

Elevated manganese concentrations are related to bedrock and groundwater

geochemistry as previously reported by AECOM and are considered to represent natural

background concentrations. Consequently the potential risk to groundwater is low.

Elevated potassium concentrations were reported between 2014 and 2017 at PS-GW2.

Although the reported concentrations are above the screening criteria they are associated

with natural background levels. Consequently they are not considered significant and the

potential risk to groundwater is low.

At the ADF, Ammoniacal Nitrogen concentrations for all samples are above the screening

criteria. Iron and Manganese and Potassium concentrations also exceed their respective

screening criteria. Ammoniacal Nitrogen, Iron and Manganese concentrations are

groundwater is considered low as a result.

At ADF-GW5, Arsenic and Nickle concentrations were detected above their respective

screening criteria. Concentrations were only slightly exceeding their respective screening

criteria. Consequently, the potential risk to groundwater is low.

11. Stage 7: Site investigation

11.1 Guidance Requirements

Stage 7 as outlined in the Commission guidance requires the following:

If there is sufficient information from Stages 1-6 to characterise the site both laterally

and vertically and to allow the baseline status in terms of quantified levels of

pollution of soil and groundwater by relevant hazardous substances to be defined,

then go directly to Stage 8. When choosing to use existing information the operator,

in providing it, and competent authority, in assessing it, need to be aware of the

uncertainty and risk associated with using such data.

11.2 Requirement for Site investigation

Baseline information is available from existing data sources, existing reports, site

investigation reports related to construction projects and the comprehensive network of

borehole monitoring locations across the site to provide an assessment of the state of the

soils and groundwater within the site. It is considered that sufficient data is available.

Therefore no further site investigation and assessment is proposed.

NOTE

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

WATERS

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

WATERS

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

NOTE

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

WATERS

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

NOTE

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

17/3119

WATERS

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

NOTE

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

17/3272

WATERS

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

DEVIATING SAMPLES

NOTE

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

The calculation of Pyrite content assumes that all oxidisable sulphides present in the sample are pyrite. This may not be the case. The calculation

may be an overesitimate when other sulphides such as Barite (Barium Sulphate) are present.

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

DEVIATING SAMPLES

SURROGATES

NOTE

Samples must be received in a condition appropriate to the requested analyses. All samples should be submitted to the laboratory in suitable

containers with sufficient ice packs to sustain an appropriate temperature for the requested analysis. If this is not the case you will be informed and

any test results that may be compromised highlighted on your deviating samples report.

Where an MCERTS report has been requested, you will be notified within 48 hours of any samples that have been identified as being outside our

MCERTS scope. As validation has been performed on clay, sand and loam, only samples that are predominantly these matrices, or combinations

of them will be within our MCERTS scope. If samples are not one of a combination of the above matrices they will not be marked as MCERTS

accredited.

Negative Neutralization Potential (NP) values are obtained when the volume of NaOH (0.1N) titrated (pH 8.3) is greater than the volume of HCl (1N)

to reduce the pH of the sample to 2.0 - 2.5. Any negative NP values are corrected to 0.

Where a CEN 10:1 ZERO Headspace VOC test has been carried out, a 10:1 ratio of water to wet (as received) soil has been used.

All samples will be discarded one month after the date of reporting, unless we are instructed to the contrary.

% Asbestos in Asbestos Containing Materials (ACMs) is determined by reference to HSG 264 The Survey Guide - Appendix 2 : ACMs in buildings

listed in order of ease of fibre release.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.

Please note we are not a UK Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI) Approved Laboratory .

If you have not already done so, please send us a purchase order if this is required by your company.

The calculation of Pyrite content assumes that all oxidisable sulphides present in the sample are pyrite. This may not be the case. The calculation

may be an overesitimate when other sulphides such as Barite (Barium Sulphate) are present.

Where analytes have been found in the blank, the sample will be treated in accordance with our laboratory procedure for dealing with contaminated

blanks.

ISO17025 accreditation applies to surface water and groundwater and usually one other matrix which is analysis specific, any other liquids are

outside our scope of accreditation.

As surface waters require different sample preparation to groundwaters the laboratory must be informed of the water type when submitting samples.

Where appropriate please make sure that our detection limits are suitable for your needs, if they are not, please notify us immediately.

Data is only reported if the laboratory is confident that the data is a true reflection of the samples analysed. Data is only reported as accredited when

all the requirements of our Quality System have been met. In certain circumstances where all the requirements of the Quality System have not been

met, for instance if the associated AQC has failed, the reason is fully investigated and documented. The sample data is then evaluated alongside

the other quality control checks performed during analysis to determine its suitability. Following this evaluation, provided the sample results have not

been effected, the data is reported but accreditation is removed. It is a UKAS requirement for data not reported as accredited to be considered

indicative only, but this does not mean the data is not valid.

Where possible, and if requested, samples will be re-extracted and a revised report issued with accredited results. Please do not hesitate to contact

the laboratory if further details are required of the circumstances which have led to the removal of accreditation.

It is assumed that you have taken representative samples on site and require analysis on a representative subsample. Stones will generally be

included unless we are requested to remove them.

All analysis is reported on a dry weight basis unless stated otherwise. Results are not surrogate corrected. Samples are dried at 35°C ±5°C unless

otherwise stated. Moisture content for CEN Leachate tests are dried at 105°C ±5°C.

Surrogate compounds are added during the preparation process to monitor recovery of analytes. However low recovery in soils is often due to peat,

clay or other organic rich matrices. For waters this can be due to oxidants, surfactants, organic rich sediments or remediation fluids. Acceptable

limits for most organic methods are 70 - 130% and for VOCs are 50 - 150%. When surrogate recoveries are outside the performance criteria but

the associated AQC passes this is assumed to be due to matrix effect. Results are not surrogate corrected.

A dilution suffix indicates a dilution has been performed and the reported result takes this into account. No further calculation is required.

NOTES TO ACCOMPANY ALL SCHEDULES AND REPORTS

Please note we are only MCERTS accredited (UK soils only) for sand, loam and clay and any other matrix is outside our scope of accreditation.

Where Mineral Oil or Fats, Oils and Grease is quoted, this refers to Total Aliphatics C10-C40.
