ADEC approves the 'Final 2017 Five-Year Review, King Salmon Divert, Naknek Recreation Camp I, Naknek Recreation Camp II, Alaska, November 2017' in a letter dated May 15, 2018. Land Use Controls have not been fully implemented at any groundwater zones at King Salmon Divert. Recommendations include: finalizing the decision document for Zone 7, determine the extent of drinking water wells at Lake Camp (number of wells, depth of wells, and groundwater gradient), and fully implement LUCs by updating public land records for non-USAF owned properties. The next five-year review will be completed in 2022. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC approved the Final 2017 Long Term Management Report for the King Salmon Divert on this date. Zone 1 recommendations include continuation of monitoring with no changes. Petroleum hydrocarbons and TCE were detected above cleanup levels in groundwater in Zone 2; recommendations include continued monitoring and updating cleanup levels in next 5 Year Review. In Zone 3, low levels of TCE and benzene were detected in the March 2018 SBTS sample, and gabions in King Salmon Creek are being pulled out of alignment; recommendations include reducing sampling at the North and South Bluffs to once every five years. In Zone 4, petroleum hydrocarbons were detected above cleanup levels in the A-aquifer but below cleanup levels in the B-aquifer; recommended that monitoring should continue due to drinking water wells and other sensitive receptors lying downgradient of this site. Monitoring will continue in Zone 5 without changes. Inspections of the Rapids Camp and Landfill were conducted in Zone 6; there were no observations of noncompliance at the landfill. Two of eight wells in Zone 7 exceeded RAO for DRO; 2015 soil samples from three LF01 locations indicated DRO contaminated soil above cleanup levels - this should be excavated and treated. |
