1.0 INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION
1.1 Purpose and Objectives
The Facilities designation for various polygons within the ARWW&S OU was initially used as
an overarching category for regions where the Land Reclamation Evaluation System (LRES)
protocol and/or remedial logic may not have been appropriate or may require modifications
because of past or present activities within the specific area. Sampling was performed within
individual Facility areas, as permitted by landowner access, to better characterize smelter related
impacts and determine remedial requirements, as appropriate. The goal was to obtain sufficient
soils data to determine the extent and magnitude of soil arsenic concentrations in comparison to
the appropriate human health arsenic action levels. In some instances, sampling was proposed to
determine if Superfund obligations are present or whether designation of the area as No Further
Action is appropriate.
This facility was sampled under the Agency-approved Facilities Sampling and Analysis
Memorandum and is located in West Galen Expansion Area 1 of the Anaconda Regional Water,
Waste and Soils (ARWW&S) Operable Unit (OU) at the Anaconda Smelter NPL site. This
ISWP summarizes the Remedial Action Objectives (RAO’s), reviews data and observations from
current and previous investigations, evaluates the need for remedial action, and identifies
appropriate remedial actions and performance standards for Preliminary Land Remediation Unit
(PRLU) polygon WGAL-006.06-A in accordance with the Record of Decision (ROD) (EPA,
1998) and Final Vegetation Management Plan (VMP) (Atlantic Richfield, 2013) for the
ARWW&S OU.
Remedial Action (RA) construction activities required to complete the remedies identified in this
ISWP will be performed in accordance with the requirements for RA implementation approved
in the West Galen Expansion Area FDR/RAWP (Atlantic Richfield, 2005), including applicable
construction quality assurance, historic preservation, and environmental requirements.
1.2 Project Organization
Atlantic Richfield’s designated representative; TREC, Inc. in conjunction with EPA oversight
personnel was responsible for determining the location of the soil sample pits, performing the
excavation of the sample pits and collecting the soil samples. Prior to sampling activities,
appropriate landowners were contacted to facilitate access to the site. TREC reviewed the data
with respect to the remedial action requirement and developed this ISWP.
1.3 Site Description
WGAL-006.06-A is located in sections 7 and 8 of township 5N range 10W between Antelope
Creek and Elk Haven Drive (see the Facilities Vicinity Map provided as Figure 1). The facility
is approximately 30 acres in size has been historically used for private grazing with several
horses occupying the pasture seasonally. Based on current land use, the recreational/open
WGAL-006.06-A ISWP
Anaconda Smelter NPL Site Page 2

A.doc
space/agricultural action level of 1,000 mg/kg for surface soil arsenic is appropriate for areas
within this facility. Two previous sampling locations existed within the facility. Four (4)
additional locations were sampled under the Facility Sampling and Analysis Memorandum to
further characterize potential smelter related impacts at the site and assist in evaluation of
remedial requirements.
2.0 PROJECT ACTIVITIES
2.1 Description of Project Activities
Sampling locations under the Facilities Sampling and Analysis Memorandum were identified to
better characterize smelter related impacts and determine remedial requirements, as appropriate.
All sample pits were excavated by hand. The sample crew typically consisted of a 2 person crew
accompanied by an Agency representative. All field data and analytical samples were collected
as directed by the Facilities Sampling and Analysis Memorandum and documented in the Field
Log book. Upon the end of each sampling day, the sample crew would complete the Chain-of-
Custodies for the samples. The samples were then delivered to the laboratories within a few
days following sample collection. After samples were collected, each test pit was backfilled by
hand but not reseeded. Care was taken during all phases of the sampling effort to minimize
damage to the existing vegetation.
2.2 Sample Location Documentation
2.2.1 Sample Labeling
Sample locations were labeled by location and depth interval according to the list provided in the
Facilities Sampling and Analysis Memorandum. Depth intervals were labeled as follows:
0 to 2 inches (A interval; surface sample);
2 to 6 inches (B interval);
0 to 6 inches (C interval); and
6 to 12 inches (D interval).
Location labels generally followed the format of FAC for Facilities sampling followed by a two
digit year identifier illustrating the year sampled followed by a sequential number. An example
of a sample label is as follows (FAC-10-101A). Figure 2 shows the final locations of the sample
points overlaid on an aerial basemap.
2.2.2 Field Documentation
A field log book was maintained during this sampling investigation. Copies of the field logs are
included as Appendix C. The original field log books for the facilities sampling event are
located in the offices of TREC, Inc. in Bozeman, Montana.

2.3 Analytical methodology
Table 3 presents the analytical methods used for sample analysis. Quantitative laboratory
measurements include arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, zinc and pH for all samples. Table 2 of
the Facilities Sampling and Analysis Memorandum (Atlantic Richfield, 2010) provides
additional detail on the analytical method used for analysis of these parameters. All analyses are
consistent with the Clark Fork River Superfund Site Investigation Lab Analytical Protocols (CFR
SSI LAP) and Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) (PTI, 1992b) unless otherwise noted.
2.4 SAP Deviations
Duplicate metals and duplicate pH samples were not collected for this area.
3.0 REMEDIAL ACTION OBJECTIVES AND REQUIREMENTS
Remedial requirements for impacted soils that are applicable to areas within the ARWW&S OU
are identified in the ROD and FDRs/RAWPs. Design criteria relevant to “facility” areas
identified in this plan include:
Reduce arsenic concentrations at the surface to below human health arsenic action levels
– 1,000 mg/kg for open space/agriculture/recreation, 500 mg/kg for commercial/
industrial areas, 250 mg/kg for residential areas and 2,500 mg/kg for steep slope areas in
Smelter Hill RDUs 3 and 14 where access restrictions are in place through Atlantic
Richfield ownership or restrictive covenants.
High arsenic area – In areas of good vegetation (i.e. Dutchman) or of beneficial use (i.e.
historic areas) that are owned by Atlantic Richfield or a government entity and exceed the
arsenic action level, implementation of ICs may be appropriate through management of
the area as a high arsenic area.
Additionally, evaluations of vegetation performance standards and monitoring and maintenance
(M&M) requirements are made based on land use pursuant to requirements identified in the Final
VMP for the ARWW&S OU (Atlantic Richfield, 2013), or the Modifying Criteria of the LRES
where standards under the VMP are inappropriate.
4.0 SITE CHARACTERIZATION
4.1 Previous Investigations
Previous investigations were conducted at the site under the Land Reclamation Evaluation
System (LRES). The soil samples collected during the LRES evaluations were typically
analyzed for arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead and zinc concentrations as well as rock content, pH
and liming requirements for use in remedial design. The previous investigations within polygon
WGAL-006.06-A were conducted during LRES Phase III datagap/boundary investigation
sampling activities and are summarized in Table 1 below. Sampling locations are shown on
Figure 2.

4.3 Analysis
As previously mentioned, Facility WGAL-006.06-A represents a 30 acre active grazing parcel
that is located between Antelope Creek and Elk Haven Drive and is privately owned. All
samples collected from the facility were below the applicable arsenic action level of 1,000 mg/kg
for agricultural/open space properties and all but two locations exhibited arsenic values below
the residential action level of 250 mg/kg. Two locations had Total Metal Indices (TMI =
As+Cu+Zn) greater than the moderate plant stress level of 1,700 mg/kg identified in the VMP
and soil pH values in the 0-6 inch interval were occasionally depressed slightly below 6.5
standard units.
5.0 SELECTED REMEDIAL ACTION
Based on the collected data and site characterization information presented in Section 4.0,
applicable Superfund impacts, remedial requirements, and performance standards for the
WGAL-006.06-A facility are summarized below.
Superfund Impacts
While soil arsenic concentrations are substantially below the applicable recreational/open
space/agricultural action level of 1,000 mg/kg at all sampled locations, the TMIs at some
locations are greater than the moderate plant stress level of 1,700 mg/kg identified in the VMP
and soil pH values are slightly depressed. Therefore, smelter related impacts have been
identified that are likely inhibiting vegetation establishment and require remediation in
accordance with the ARWW&S OU ROD.
Remedial Requirements
Based on collected data and consistent with adjacent remedial polygons, the selected remedy to
mitigate identified Superfund impacts in WGAL-006.06-A is T6 (tillage to 6 inches) adding lime
amendment with the primary objective establishing/improving site vegetation. The tillage
remedy will be performed with lime to further reduce containment concentrations relative to the
moderate plant stress level identified in the VMP while ameliorating soil pH values in
accordance with root zone criteria established for the Site. Additionally, facility sampling data
indicates that implementation of a T6 remedy will likely reduce surface arsenic concentrations
below the residential land use action level of 250 mg/kg, thereby classifying the facility as a
Category 1 (Unrestricted Use) area under the Final VMP.
Additional sampling will be required prior to implementing the tillage remedy to determine
appropriate soil amendment requirements. The need for lime amendment has been confirmed
based on facility sampling pH data. Therefore, soil acid-base accounting (ABA) and rock
content data will be collected prior to construction for use in determining lime application rates.
The need for Organic Matter (OM) addition in this area will also be evaluated by conducting an
A-Horizon/OM investigation to evaluate existing soils and prescribe OM amendment as

necessary to achieve a final organic content of 1.5% in the top 6 inches, based on dry weight.
Revegetation fertilizer and seed mixes will be prescribed consistent with adjacent remedy areas
unless otherwise agreed through landowner access coordination. All tillage, soil amendment,
and revegetation activates will be implemented as specified in the agency-approved West Galen
Expansion Area FDR/RAWP (Atlantic Richfield, 2005).
Post-RA confirmation sampling will be required to verify the tillage remedy has successfully
reduced soil arsenic concentrations below 250 mg/kg if the area is to be classified as Category 1
(Unrestricted Use). Details regarding the post-RA confirmation sampling protocols required to
classify parcels as Category 1 at the ARWW&S OU are currently under development, and will
be applied to this area during construction as formally agreed. The need for additional tillage
efforts (i.e., additional or deeper passes) may be identified in some areas to further reduce
surface arsenic concentrations to levels at or below the residential land use action level of 250
mg/kg, as determined by confirmation sampling during construction.
Performance Standards
Following RA implementation and pending confirmation that the tillage remedy has achieved
Category 1 status, the area would normally be subject to an Operational and Functional
evaluation and two years of post-RA weed management. If Category 1 status is not confirmed,
the area would normally require LRES monitoring and compliance determinations as a Category
2 property in accordance with requirements identified in the Final VMP.
This area has been historically used for grazing and several horses occupy the pasture seasonally.
Under its current land use (active horse pasture), the facility may not pass the vegetation
performance criteria identified in the VMP for typical Category 1 or Category 2 properties
following remediation. However, as discussed in the February 26, 2014 meeting between
Atlantic Richfield and EPA representatives, application of LRES modifying criteria may be
appropriate if current land use practices continue that inhibit vegetation establishment.
Following two years of post-RA weed management and upon either passing the O&F inspection
or application of the LRES modifying criteria as appropriate, this area will be designated as a No
Further Action (NFA) Category 1 (Unrestricted Use) area with no additional Superfund
obligations and unrestricted land use from a Superfund perspective. Future development within
this facility, however, will still be subject to all remaining and relevant provisions of the ADLC
Developmental Permit System (DPS) and other applicable federal, state, and local laws as
enforced by the ADLC.

LRES Phase III Sample Results
Design Justification Discussion: Soils data identify no active remedial requirements necessary to reduce soil arsenic concentrations below the applicable agricultural/open space/recreational action level of 1,000 mg/kg. However elevated total metals, slightly depressed soil pH values, and existing vegetation conditions indicate smelter related impacts are likely inhibiting vegetation establishment and require remediation. A T6 remedy with lime amendment is recommended for this facility consistent with adjacent West Galen areas to ameliorate soil pH and improve site vegetation. Sample data indicates that implementing the T6 remedy will also achieve an additional goal of reducing surface arsenic concentrations to below the residential action level of 250 mg/kg, thereby classifying the area as Category 1 (Unrestricted Use) under the Final VMP. Soil amendment requirements (lime and OM) will be determined by additional sampling prior to RA construction.
