On December 24, 2001, Revision #1 for this plan was submitted to this office. Ro~k Engineering submitted the workplan and its revision on your behalf. This workplan provides for the construction and operation of an air sparge trench and the installation of an additional downgmdient monitoring well (MW-9). This workplan is hereby approved, contingent upon compliance with the following conditions' le e e The installation of an additional monitoring well to be located south of MW-6, between the Airport Ramp Access and the air sparging trench, centered in the middle of the GW contaminant plume. If this location is not possible, then it should be located south of the Airport Ramp Access, outside the automatic gate. This well will provide timely information on the effectiveness of this remediation system. Air pressure relief standpipes should be spaced every 15'- 20' apart over the trench length and be constructed of 6" diameter solid pipe. These pipes should be installed into the top several inches of the ½"-2" rock, wrapped in the nonwoven silt stop. Referencing construction note ~4 included in Figure 2, Revision #1 for this Kenai Airport Fuel Service 2 February 1, 2002 4~ Se workplan; in the trench containing the sparge/perforated pipe, place ½"- 2" drain rock on fabric to 1.0'-1.5' above GW, rather than the 0.5' proposed. Rationale, when the water table dses, the bottom of the air pressure relief standpipes must be above the surface of the water table in order to remain functional. Provide design information on the air blower and a maintenance and operation schedule for the system. Additional design/construction information is also required of the 2" HDPE sparge pipe. This plan information must be approved by ADEC pdor to installation. Soils shall be field screened for contamination dudng ddlling of the two new monitoring wells. These two wells and MW-7 should be sampled and analyzed for GRO, BTEX and EDB constituents, using test methods AK101 and 8260B or 8021B.

Box 350 Kenai, Alaska 9961 Civil, Construction & Environmental Consulting (907) 283-5640 Fax (907) 283-0747 December 7, 2001 Mr. Paul Horwath, PE, Environmental Engineer Alaska Dept. of Environmental Conservation Division of Spill Prevention and Response, STP 43335 Kalifomsky Beach Rd, Suite 11 Soldotna, Alaska 99669 Subject: Kenai Airport Fuel Service, Interim Remedial Action Plan Revision/ti UST Facility ID #2187, Reckey #90230026801 Dear Mr. Hor~vath: . At the direction of Dan Pitts and Dean Eichholz, the tbllowing revision to the interim action plan dated November 10, 2001 is submitted for your review and approval. The revision, shown in plan view on Figure 3 (attached), consists of excavating the area bet~veen the existing culverts to groundwater to create an evaporation pond. It is anticipated that the pond will increase the volatilization of gasoline contaminants that are migrating off' the subject property. The pond may also make it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the sparge system by visually examining the distribution of air bubbles generated by the sparge line. The main component of the original remedial action plan consisted of installing 140 lineal feet of horizontal air sparge line to reduce the off-site migration of contaminants to cleanup levels. The proposed sparge line would be about 20 feet south of the Flying Network apron~about I0 feet up-slope of existing drainage s~vale. The flow line of the swale aligns with a 30 inch diameter corrugated metal pipe (CMP) culvert on the west and a 24 inch CMP on the east. The layout of the proposed design is shown on Figure 1 (attached). The sparge line would be installed in a trench', about 1 1/2 feet below the ground water table, with drain rock placed above the pipe to the water surface. The trench cross section and construction notes for the original design are attached (Figure 2). The pond will be about 110-120 feet long, about 5-10' wide at the west and 20-25' wide at the east. The centerline of the pond will be excavated 4-5 feet. The sides around the pond will be sloped no steeper than 3H'l V to minimize erosion and possible undercutting of the nearby pavement. New chain link fence will be added to the existing fence to restrict access to the pond. There will be a 3' wide access gate near monitor well MW-6. The added portion of the fence will be removed and the pond will be filled to the existing grades after the remedial action has been completed and approved by the department. Construction of the horizontal air sparge trench will be similar to the original design except there will be less backfill over the trench, the drain rock over the sparge line will be closer to the INTERIM REMEDIAL ACTION PLAN FOR KENAI AIRPORT FUEL SERVICEmREVISION #1 surface, the trench will be closer to the 30" CMP, and the deeper excavation for the pond may allow the sparge line to be installed deeper. Figure 4 is shows a typical cross section at the 30" CMP. The approximate location of the proposed sparge trench is shown We recommend excavating the pond and installing the trench as soon as weather permits and the water table drops within 0.5 foot of the seasonal Iow to allow for the deepest possible installation of the sparge line.

Willow, Suite 200 Kenai, Alaska 99611 Dear Rebecca: It was a pleasure to catch up with you again in Kenai last week. I appreciated your hospitality and time spent getting me acquainted with the community, City and airport staff, and the Kenai Airport Commission. It is apparent you and the community are interested in growth, but that it should be done in a thoughtful and well-planned manner. I was impressed with the enthusiasm and support of your Airport Commission, and your dedication to managing the airport according to industry and Federal Aviation Administration standards. Kenai is fortunate to have you. DOWL Engineers is interested in supporting development of the Kenai Airport and development in the community. If there is ever anything we can do to help, please let me know. Thanks again for your hospitality. Sincerely, DOWL Engineers Thomas M.

You could play music at the same decibel level as an aircraft passing overhead but music is perceived as pleasant while the aircraft may be perceived as harsh and intrusive. Whether perceptions am accurate or not, airports around the country have been forced to take steps to monitor and enforce aircraft noise reductions and institute operating time restrictions. Help us help you! As a pilot, we ask you to consider the impact of over flights to surrounding neighborhoods and reduce noise whenever possible. A pilot's first responsibility is the safety of passengers and people on the ground. Any noise reduction measure must be safo and practical given the personal capabilities of the pilot, the aimraff, and the prevailing conditions at the time. Please fly friendly by using these noise reduction procedures whenever safe and practical under the prevailing conditions. Thank you for your cooperation! Kee_~ the _orooeller as slow as _oossible. The principal noise source is the propeller. Reducing rpm's as soon after takeoff as safely possible can significantly reduce noise. Reducing rpm's is the single most effective thing a pilot can do. Flv as high as _oossible as soon as Dossible. Use the' best angle of climb speed or th~ best rate of climb when overflying neighborhoods. Doubling the altitude, from 600 to 1200 feet, can decrease the noise levels by half. Increasing altitude is the most effective ta~ic for fixed pitch aimraft. · · Clean, stable, Iow power, Iow drag approaches are significantly quieter. · attention getting sounds. Aimraft engine changes in pitch or volume of sound attracts attention. The ' ' _ -- ' 'ghborhoods whenever possible by flying · route of travel ~s ~moort_nnt. Avoid ne~ over industdal areas or busy highways. Or, fly over the least densely populated areas. If _oossible. Dian your trios during the day or early evenirlc. Avoid departures when people tend to be sleeping. Aircraft noise is p~rceived as louder at night (10:00 pm to 7:00 am) because the rest of the community is quieter (background noise is less from traffic,etc.). Likewise, aircraft noise over quieter, more rural areas, with less background noise seems louder. AIRCRAFT NOISE TERMINOLOGY A number of acoustical terms are commonly used to describe aircraft noise. These terms form the basis for most noise analyses conducted in the U.S. The Decibel, dB All sounds come from a sound source -- a musical instrument, a voice, an airplane. The ener~ which produces these sounds is transmitted through the air in sound waves, or sound pressures, which impinge on the ear, creating the sound we hear. We use logarithms to express a ratio of two pressures; the first is the sound source and the second the reference pressure (the quietest sound we can hear). This ratio is referred to as a sound pressure level (SPL), which is expressed in decibels (dB). This logarithmic conversion means that the quietest sound we can hear has a SPL of 0 dB, while the loudest sounds we can hear have SPLs of about 120 dB. Most environmental sounds have SPLs ranging from 30 to 100 dB. Because decibels are logarithmic, they do not behave like other numbers. For example, if two sound sources each produce 100 dB, when they are operated together they will produce 103 dB -- not 200 dB! Four equal sources operating together again double the sound energy, resulting in a total SPL of 106 dB, and so on. In addition, if one source is much louder than another, the two sources operating together will produce the same SPL as if the louder source were operating alone. For example, a 100 dB source plus an 80 dB source produce 100 dB when operating together. The louder source masks the quieter one. Two useful rules of thumb to remember when comparing SPLs are: (I) most of us perceive a six to ten dB increase in SPL to be about a doubling of loudness, and (2) changes in SPL of less than about three dB are not easily detected outside of a laboratory. The A-Weighted Sound Level, dB(A) Frequency, or "pitch" is an important characteristic of sound. When analyzin~ noise, we are interested in how much is Iow-, middle- and high-frequency noise. This breakdown is important for two reasons. First, our ears are better equipped to hear mid- and high- frequencies; thus~ we find mid- and hi,h-frequency noise more annoying. Hi[h frequency noise also produces more hearin~ loss. Second, engineenn~ solutions to noise problems are different for different frequency ranges. Low-frequency noise generally is harder to control. The normal frequency range of hearing for most people extends from about 20 to 15,000 Hertz (Hz). The "A~ filter approximates the sensitivity of our ear and help us to assess the relative loudness of various sounds. Maximum A-weighted Sound Level, L max A-weighted sound levels vary with time. For example, the sound increases as an aircraft approaches, then falls and blends into the background as the aircraft recedes into the distance. Figure t illustrates this phenomenon. A-Level 7o 6o 5o 4O 0 1Minute Figure 1. A-weighted Sound Levels over Time Because of this variation, it is often convenient to describe a particular noise "event" by its maximum sound level (Lmax).' In Figure I, the level increases as the aircraft approacnes, reaching an Lmax of 85 dB(A), and then decreases as the aircraft passes by. The ambient A-weighted level around 55 dB(A)is due to the background sounds that dominate before and after the aircraft passes. Figure 2 shows Lmax for a variety of common environmental sound sources. Common Outdoor Sound Level Common Indoor Sound Levels dBA Sound Levels 747-100 Tak4mll ~ m.

Common Environmental Sound Levels Note that Lmax describes only one dimension of an event; it provides no information on the cumulative noise exposure generated by a sound source. In fact, two events with identical Lmax may produce very different total exposures. One may be of very short duration, while the other may be much longer. Sound Exposure Level, S EL The most common measure of cumulative noise exposure for a single aircraft flyover is the Sound Exposure Level (SEL). SEL is a summation of the A-weighted sound ener3y HARRIS MILLER MILLER & HANSON INC. over the duration of a noise event. The shaded area in Figure 3 shows that portion of the sound ener3y included in this event. Mathematically, the SEL equation compresses this noise ener3y into a column one second wide (shown as the darkly shaded area in Figure 3). The height of the column is the SEL, measured in decibels. A-Level 9O 8O 70 6O 5O 0 t, 1 Second t~ Figure 3. SOund Exposure Level 1 Minute Because the SEL is normalized to one second, it will almost always be larger in magnitude than the Lmax for the event. In fact, for most aircraft events, the SEL is about 7 to 12 dB higher than the Lm~ Also, the fact that it is a cumulative measure means that a higher SEL can"result from either.'a louder or longer event, or some combination. SEL provides a comprehensive.. Way to describe noise events for use in modeling and comparing .noise environments. Computer noise models base their computations on these SELs. Equivalent Sound Level, L The Equivalent Sound Level (Leq) is a measure of the exposure resulting from the accumulation of A-weighted sound levels over a particular period of interest -- for example, an hour, an eight hour school day, nighttime, or a full 24-hour day. Leq is a constant sound level over a certain time pedod that contains the same sound energy as the time-varying sound level, Figure 4 illustrates Leq. Leq is affected by the number and loudness of noise events occurring during the time period of interest. Additional noise events (regardless of how loud or quiet) will always increase the Leq; however, loud events will dominate the LecI. It is important to recognize that the constant signal and the time-varying signal would sound very different if compared in real life: the time-varyin~ noise cleady has periods when the fluctuatin~ A-wei§hted sound level exceeds the equivalent constant sound level. A-Level 8O 7O 5O 4O 0 1Minute Figure 4. 1-Minute Equivalent Sound Level Leq = 76 In airport applications, Leq is often presented for consecutive one-hour periods to illustrate how houdy noise levels rises and fall throughout the day, as well as how certain hours are significanUy affected by a few loud events. Day-Night Average Sound Level, DNL The Day-Night Average Sound Level (DNL) represents noise as it occurs over a 24-hour period. It is the same as a 24-hour Leq, with one important exception: DNL treats nighttime no~e differently from daytime noise. In determining DNL, it is assumed that the A-weighted levels occumng at night (10 p.m. to 7 a.m.) are t0 dB louder than they really are. This 10 dB penalty is applied to account for greater sensitivity to nighttime noise, and the fact that events at night are often perceived to be more intrusive because nighttime ambient noise is less than daytime ambient noise. Figure I illustrated the A-weighted sound level due to an aircraft fly-over as it changed over time. The top frame of Figure 5 repeats this figure. The shaded area reflects the noise dose that a listener receives during the one minute period of the sample. The center frame of Figure 5 includes this one-minute interval within a full hour. Now the shaded area represents the noise during that hour with 16 noise events, each producing an SEL. Similarly, the A-Level 1 Minute 1 Hour 0 Noon Figure 5. Daily Noise Dose 24 Hours bottom frame indudes the one-hour intenral within a f~l124- hours. Here the shaded area represents the listeners noise dose over a complete day. Note that several overflights occur at night, when the background noise drops some 10 dB, to approximately 45 dB(A). Figure 6 presents a representative sample of DNL measured at various locations in the U.S. Values of DNL normally can be measured with standard monitoring equipment or predicted with computer models. Most aircraft noise studies utilize computer-generated estimates of DNL, determined by accounting for all of the SELs from individual events which comprise the total noise dose at a given location on the ground.

The result of the studies, to be conducted over the next six weeks, will be used to achieve security improvements at all 429 U.S. airports with commercial service. %Vhile each airport is unique, we seek to achieve a system that emphasizes consistency, both in security and in the treatment of travelers," said Transportation Secretary Norman Y. Mineta. "These studies will provide an important tool to enhance airport security systems nationwide." TSA staff, enhanced by a team of business process consultants will trace the movemem of passengers and cargo through security systems, and then determine what core changes could provide both more effective security and better service to travelers. The airports are Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport, Alaska; Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport, GA.; Baltimore-Washington International Airport, MD.; Boston Logan International Airport, MA.; Charlotte~ouglas International Airport, NC; Chicago O'Hare International Airport, IL; Dallas/Ft. Worth International Airport, TX; Gerald R. Ford International Airport, Grand Rapids, MI; Louisville International Airport, KY; ~eapolis-St. Paul International Airport, MN; Mobile Regional Airport, AL; John F. Kennedy International Airport, NY; Orlando International Airport, FL; San Francisco · International Airport, CA; and Spokane International Airport, WA. '~Ve appreciate the insight and assistance of the executive leadership of these airports, their staffs and employees, and of the air carriers," said John W. Magaw, Under Secretary of Transportation for Security. '~)ur studies will not disrupt the movement of passengers and cargo through these airports and the work will be mostly unnoticeable to the traveling public." , AGENDA KENAI CITY COUNCIL- REGULAR MEETING FEBRUARY 20, 2002 7:00 P.M.
