Problems/Comments

Low levels of soil contamination were discovered beneath the dispenser island when a 5,000 gallon gasoline UST was removed in 1998. Soil beneath the tank was non-detect for GRO and BETX analytes). PID readings and analytical results indicate that only one "hot spot" on the northwall of the excavation (underneath the sidewalk along the building foundation) contained contamination above cleanup levels. Groundwater was not sampled, but one soil sample from the smear zone beneath the dispenser island was non-detect, or below cleanup levels for GRO and BETX analytes.

Action Information

Action Date Action Description DEC Staff
7/22/1998 Leaking Underground Storage Tank Release Confirmed - Petroleum LUST Site created in CSP for source area ID 77857 During tank closure, actionable release detected. Former Staff
7/22/1998 Site Added to Database Former Staff
12/4/1998 Underground Storage Tank Site Characterization or Assessment Site Assessment submitted to ADEC. The report indicates that the excavation limits at the UST do meet Level B criteria, but the limits of the dispenser island excavation do not meet Level B target soil cleanup levels (GRO levels 187 ppm, Benzene <0.197 ppm, total BTEX 48.411 ppm). The former tank and dispenser were removed and disposed. Rockwell recommends that a release investigation be performed. They suggested that two soil borings be advanced and soil and groundwater be collected. The borings should be advanced to the north and west of the dispenser area, approximately 10 feet outside the 1998 excavation limits. Deborah Williams

2/14/2006 Update or Other Action Reviewed file and updated problem statement. Site could possibly attain a NFRAP status. Benzene is the only contaminant above cleanup levels at 0.05 mg/kg, though PQLs were above the cleanup level on some samples. Groundwater was not assessed. Kim DeRuyter
