7 Background Guidelines for Assessing and Managing Petroleum Hydrocarbon Contaminated Sites in New Zealand (MfE 1999) sometimes known as the Oil Industry Guidelines. Designed to assist both industry and regulatory authorities in developing uniform and suitable methods of site investigation, contamination assessment, modelling and site management with respect to petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated sites.
8 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria Include acceptance criteria for the protection of groundwater quality along with other exposure pathways. The approach adopted for deriving soil acceptance criteria for the protection of groundwater quality in sensitive aquifers is considered to be sound, it is however also very conservative. The approach provides protection to the groundwater immediately below the contaminated source within the confines of a site; it does not consider any attenuation of contaminants during transport in groundwater away from the source and therefore is overly conservative for many situations.
9 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria
10 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria Sensitive Aquifer when groundwater is: Artesian. < 10 m bgl. Can yield water at a useful rate (i.e. has a reasonable permeability). Source of contamination is < 100 m from a surface water body.
11 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria > 100m Low Permeability Soils Low Permeability Soils (sandy silt, silty clay, clay, peat) (sandy silt, silty clay, clay, peat) Surface Water Environmental Receptor X
12 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria In the absence of established soil acceptance criteria for the protection of surface water, many regulatory agencies are routinely making direct reference to groundwater protection criteria to ensure that a nearby surface water body is adequately protected from potential contaminant impact. Often overly conservative.
13 Background Protection of Groundwater Criteria For example. Clay soil type (i.e. not sensitive due to yield) Groundwater at 2 m bgl. Surface water within 100 m of source. Acceptance criteria applied is mg/kg.
14 Background Object OIEWG engaged URS to develop soil acceptance criteria for the protection of surface water quality, in situations where an aquifer was not sensitive due to potential yield (i.e. low permeability soils, Sandy SILT, Silty CLAY, CLAY and PEAT).

To maintain consistency with other soil types, the effective porosity from Davis & De Wiest has been adopted in this assessment.

23 Application of Criteria In instances where the aquifer underlying the subject site is not considered to be sensitive the criteria for the protection of surface water presented in this study could be applied as the de-facto Tier 1 screening criteria. That is for clay, silty clay, sandy silt and peat soils.
24 Application of Criteria Should not be applied for use at sites Where the geology is highly heterogeneous (for example fill), Where the topography and likely hydraulic gradient are steep, Where the potential exists for significant preferential pathways (such as subsurface services, high permeability lenses or fractures) exist, or LNAPL is present.
25 Application of Criteria For soils classified as sandy silt, a qualitative assessment of the hydraulic conductivity, hydraulic gradient and the effective porosity should be made to ensure that the site conditions are within an acceptable range of those adopted for the model.
