Problems/Comments

One underground storage tank was removed in 1995 as documented in the Fuel Storage Tank Decommissioning Assessments, dated 1995. Tank 9-C-5 was a 1000 gallon diesel tank that was removed along with 25 cubic yards of petroleum-contaminated soil. Six (6) confirmation samples were collected and analytical results showed that the petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations were below the department’s default cleanup levels. In the Site Cleanup and Investigation Report, dated 1996, the removal of one-half (1/2) cubic yard of petroleum-contaminated soil is documented to have occurred on the east side of the shed. Field screening results showed that the all of the petroleum hydrocarbons in that area were removed.
