“…Mass fraction results presented by Smith et al (1981) were obtained from JP-4 samples analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). As shown on Figure 2.3, BTEX mass fraction results presented by Smith et al (1981) are slightly lower than those presented by Hughes et al (1984), and therefore represent more conservative initial values for estimating mass fraction BTEX reductions in JP-4 mobile LNAPL.…”

The original report, "light Nonaqueous-Phase Liquid (LNAPL) Weathering at Various Fuel Release Sites" was completed Sep 1999. The existing data set from the original fuels weathering study was augmented with newly-collected data from several additional sites. The expanded data set was used to form a more robust database for estimating fuel LNAPL weathering rates.Both the original study and this update focus primarily on the weathering or natural depletion of BTEX components from free-phase product.

The potential for use of alternatives to total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) for remediation purposes was examined specifically for JP-4 fuel. The study objective was to determine the scientific basis for use of fuel constituents other than TPH in establishing soil cleanup standards at JP-4-contaminated sites. The general bases for TPH soil cleanup standards or goals were characterized. Problems with the use of TPH for cleanup included its lack of specificity (e.g., method-, medium-, and time-from-spill-dependency) as well as the lack of toxicological relevance. JP-4 fuel constituents (alkanes, BTEX [i.e., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes], polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [PAHs, i.e., chrysene], and naphthalenes) were identified as potential TPH alternatives. A series of criteria were applied to assess the viability of the use of specific JP-4 constituents as TPH alternatives, and to select the most appropriate alternative. Criteria included chemical fate and transport, toxicity, and regulatory standards for relevant media of concern. Consideration of these criteria ultimately resulted in selection of benzene as the JP-4 indicator of choice. The potential for altering risk-based benzene soil cleanup concentrations (preliminary remediation goals, PRGs) was examined, and encompassed the basis for the existing benzene cancer slope factor (SF) as well as the role of distributional analysis of exposure parameters (Monte Carlo) that might be employed at JP-4 spill sites. Results and conclusions are presented, and the implications for fuels other than JP-4 are also discussed.
