Problems/Comments
Seepage from the face of the bluff at Elmendorf Air Force Base transporting contaminants above ADEC cleanup levels. Groundwater is main concern Site is directly below the intersection of East Bluff Drive and Fairchild Ave in Government Hill. Groundwater is approximately 40 to 48 feet below ground surface. This site borders Elmendorf Air Force Base Wetland Remediation System for Operating Unit 5. Administrative order on consent (US EPA Docket No. CERCLA 10-2004-0065) signed on this date to include ARRC terminal, Area 3 and designated lease properties. The ARRC Ship Creek North Bluff site (Hazard ID: 3919) is a duplicate of JBER-Elmendorf OU5 ST037 Diesel Fuel Line formerly SP-1 (Hazard ID: 631). JBER is the primary responsible party and not the ARRC. This is due to seepage from the face of the JBER bluff transporting contaminants above ADEC cleanup levels onto ARRC property. Therefore, Hazard ID 631, JBER-Elmendorf OU5 ST037 Diesel Fuel Line formerly SP-1, will be where project information is tracked and Hazard ID 3919, ARRC Ship Creek North Bluff, is deemed Non-Qualifying.
