2.10 Winterization and Demobilization<br />

Winterization of <strong>the</strong> site was performed to prevent rain damage to <strong>the</strong> site<br />

during <strong>the</strong> seasonal rains.<br />

Site winterization consisted of sealing <strong>the</strong> site against rainwater<br />

infiltration, securing <strong>the</strong> site against outside intrusion, and removing<br />

rainwater that had collected in <strong>the</strong> building.<br />

To protect <strong>the</strong> site from rain, visquene was placed over <strong>the</strong> street curb to<br />

liner joint, <strong>the</strong> HDPE liner was completely covered with sand, <strong>the</strong> sono<br />

tubes were sealed with visquene and duct tape, and plywood was propped over<br />

<strong>the</strong> gap between <strong>the</strong> building and <strong>the</strong> concrete containment curb.<br />

The site perimeter was secured by placing temporary fencing along <strong>the</strong><br />

backyard of <strong>the</strong> Madison residence, by wiring shut <strong>the</strong> gap in <strong>the</strong> Shafter<br />

Street access gate, and by securely locking all site doors and gates.<br />

Samples of water were collected from <strong>the</strong> drum storage area inside <strong>the</strong><br />

building and sent to DHS laboratories for chemical analyses. These results<br />

have been forwarded to Tommy Lee of <strong>the</strong> SFDPW. A temporary sump pump has<br />

been placed in <strong>the</strong> drum storage area, and Mr. Lee has approved <strong>the</strong><br />

discharge of any water collected into <strong>the</strong> city sewer system.
