Release Investigation |
Hart Crowser sent results from samples collected during excavation of 3 tanks. Conclusions reached: hydrocarbons encountered in diesel & gas excavations appear to be heavier than normally associated with diesel or gas, an apparent release of petroleum hydrocarbions occurred from used oil tank. Recommend monitoring wells to confirm above conlusions/characterized groundwater flow and quality. |

Site Characterization Workplan Approved |
ADEC approves the "Work Plan to Conduct Site Investigation Activities." This work plan proposes 4 soil borings/monitoring wells to be screened and analyzed for VOCs. One boring/well to be placed at each of the 3 historic tank locations, plus one boring/well down gradient. |

Site Characterization Report Approved |
ADEC approves the document titled "Additional Site Characterization Activities, 1111 East 56th Avenue, Anchorage, Alaska." Groundwater was below cleanup levels for all VOCs in all wells. Soil was below cleanup levels at the former gasoline and diesel tank locations. At the former waste oil tank location, TCE in soil was above migration to groundwater but below human health. ADEC requests a second round of groundwater monitoring to achieve two rounds of "clean" groundwater monitoring prior to site closure. Groundwater flow direction was found to be north/northwest. |

Site Characterization Report Approved |
A report was received 10-26-2021 documenting the July 2021 sampling of monitoring wells B1MW, B2MW, B3MW, and B4MW. All wells were sampled for VOC. B2MW was sampled for GRO, DRO, RRO, and PAH. Only the sample from B2MW exceeded cleanup levels for DRO and RRO. |

Site Characterization Workplan Approved |
Approved groundwater monitoring sampling in general accordance with the 2019 work plan. B1MW, B2MW, and B4MW will be sampled for DRO and RRO, B1MW will also be sampled for GRO. DEC requested that the report include final reporting requirements outlined in 18 AAC 78.276. |

Site Characterization Report Approved |
The 2022 Groundwater Monitoring Report submitted in April 2023 was reviewed. Samples were collected in August at B1MW, B2MW, and B4MW and analyzed for DRO, RRO, and GRO. Only B2MW exceeded cleanup levels. RRO was detected in B2MW at 1.69 mg/L. Other wells had detections of GRO, RRO, and DRO, but concentrations were below cleanup levels. Groundwater depth was a bit shallower in B1MW. |
