Typical benzene cleanup levels are 100 - 500 ug/Kg for the groundwater
protection pathway, 1,000 - 30,000 ug/Kg inhalation, and >100,000 ug/Kg
human direct contact.  Many states also have cleanup levels for TEX and
TMBs that may come into play for a gasoline spill, depending on age of
the spill.

A good resource for cleanup standards published by the EPA and state
governments is:

Subject: [DCHAS-L] BTEX Remediation

Does anyone know the requirements for BTEX remediation (particularly
benzene) after a gasoline spill?  Prichtel's Fundamental of Site
Remediation, states that gasoline is subject to permit required release
of vapors, but doesn't address any specific residue issues.
