6. MATTERS FROM CITY MANAGER & STAFF
A. The San Gabriel Valley Superfund Site, El Monte Operable Unit - West Side,
Shallow Zone Expansion Project
The San Gabriel Valley Superfund site is divided into eight sub -areas or operable
units. Of these, the El Monte Operable Unit (EMOU) is divided into two portions,
based on the responsible parties involved in their remediation: the west and east
sides of the EMOU. The West Side EMOU is situated within the city boundaries of
the City of El Monte, the City of Temple City and the City of Rosemead. Within
this portion of the EMOU, groundwater contains elevated concentrations of volatile
organic compounds (VOCs), such as trichloroethene (TCE) and tetrachloroethene
(PCE), perchlorate, hexavalent chromium, and 1,4 -dioxane.
Over the past 25 -years, led by Hermetic Seal, a subsidiary of Ametek, there has
been a significant amount of site investigation, sampling, planning, design, and
construction to contain contaminated groundwater. These efforts culminated in
2012 when construction of a groundwater treatment system (GWTS) was
completed and began operation. The GWTS includes a series of pumping extraction
wells located to the west of the areas where contamination was released.
Groundwater is pumped in buried pipes (located in the right-of-way) to above-
ground treatment equipment that is located at the Ametek facility on Temple City
Blvd. The treatment equipment removes contamination from the groundwater and
then discharges the treated water into Eaton Wash in compliance with a National
Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit issued by the Los
Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board.
Recommendation: That the City Council received and file report.
