Problems/Comments

There have been several historic spills from the above ground storage tank (AST) farm and associated pipeline that supplies the MKEC power plant. Contamination resulting from severe damage to the Red Devil Corporation's tank farm by flooding was reported to WDO on September 5, 1991. In 1991 a spill from tanks overturned during the spring flood, which breached the liner, at the MKEC power plant of 3,500 to 5,000 gallons occurred, of which 900 cubic yards was excavated and put into two stockpiles and the TF was relocated just upgradient. Another spill occurred at the power plant in 1992. On 7/7/1992, vandals created a 35- to 50-gallon spill contaminating a 12 foot area. In 1993, areas of stressed vegetation and staining were noted at the north of the property below the fuel pipelines where 10 to 20 gallons of diesel spilled. In 1994, three monitoring wells installed within the depression for the 1991 800 cubic yard excavation, contained benzene up to 6.6 milligrams per liter (mg/L) and diesel range organics (DRO) up to 6.2 mg/L. In 1998, soil samples collected under the fuel lines contained gasoline range organics (GRO) up to 7,500 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg), DRO up to 25,000 mg/kg, benzene up to 2.3 mg/kg, ethylbenzene up to 45.7 mg/kg, xylenes up to 240 mg/kg, and toluene up to 102 mg/kg. The AST farm was relocated upgradient to a contained area. The former tank farm was situated in the flood plain of the Kuskokwim River. This area and surrounding land is owned by Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and has been selected by the regional native corporation. The native corporation does not want to complete the land conveyance until either the liability for the contamination is established or the site is cleaned up. Mr. Kessinger, (former) Red Devil Corporation (RDC) president, states the RDC has no money, and that the fault for the contamination lies with a Red Devil construction company (Wilmarth) which built the tank farm in the flood plain a few years ago. A depressed area currently exists where contaminated soil was previously excavated from the former AST farm in 1991, but the stockpiles are no longer on the site. No further action has occurred since 1998 for these spill events. In 2009, the Prevention and Emergency Response Program (PERP) responded to a 2,000-gallon diesel spill from the MKEC day tank. Contaminated soil was excavated to the best extent practicable and stockpiled in a containment area behind the MKEC Building. Groundwater at the base of the excavation contained a sheen and appears to be hydraulically connected to the River as evidenced by groundwater level fluctuations. The excavation was backfilled with cleanfill in 2011. Extent of contamination is unknown. Water is derived from individual wells.

9/5/1991	Update or Other Action	Contamination resulting from severe damage to the Red Devil Corporation's tank farm by flooding on September 5, 1991. In 1991 a spill from tanks overturned during the spring flood, which breached the liner, at the MKEC power plant of 3,500 to 5,000 gallons occurred of which 800 cubic yards was excavated and put into two stockpiles and the TF was relocated just upgradient. Four soil samples collected from the stockpiles contained TRPH up to 2,800 mg/kg. One soil sample collected from the bottom of the excavation contained TRPH at 250 mg/kg. The excavation area is 60 feet long, 40 feet wide, and a maximum depth of 4 feet deep. Noted: leakage was noted at the pipeline and was patched	Grant Lidren
8/27/1992	Update or Other Action	Site Reconnaissance: ADEC's Ray Dronenburg inspected this site and reported the presence of a rainbow sheen on the water in the excavation at the former site of the tank farm. He also reported a strong odor of fuel in soils at both the site of the excavation and in the stockpiles. The stockpiles were created during the TF relocation project.The contamination was the result from severe damage to the tank during flooding and was reported to the DEC on 9/15/1991.	Former Staff

The investigation was performed to assess the 1991 release of 3,500 to 5,000 gallons of fuel that breached the liner at the MKEC power plant, which resulted in 800 cubic yards of contaminated soil excavated and put into two stockpiles. The 1994 investigation included: collecting soil samples from the excavation area and stockpile, and analyzing the groundwater within the excavation. Six soil samples collected 6 to 7 feet bgs contained DRO up to 11,000 mg/kg. Soil samples collected from the two onsite stockpiles contained DRO up to 5,700 mg/kg.

Site reconnaissance and interviews with local residents indicate releases of diesel on the 1 acre subject property, which is located 600 feet south of the Kuskokwim River near the Red Devil Airport. A flood in 1991 caused numerous spills including more than 20-55 gallon drums, which are spread out throughout the property. There have been several spills from the Red Devil TF that supplies the power plant electrical generator, which is located 150 ft. west of the subject property. In 1991 a spill at the power plant of 3,500 to 5,000 gallon occurred of which 800 cubic yards was excavated and put into two stockpiles. Another spill occurred at the power plant in 1992, when a pump was left on that stained the ground with diesel, Additionally, Areas of stressed vegetation and staining were noted at the north of the property below fuel pipelines where 10 to 20 gallons of diesel spilled.

The areas investigated included three locations in the vicinity of the fuel pipelines along the northeast of the property boundary and an area near AST’s located on the south corner of the property. Four test pits were excavated: three below the pipeline and one below the ASTs on the South corner of the property (note: these ASTs are not part of the MKEC power plant contaminated site). The test pits were advanced 5 to 14 ft. bgs. Soil samples collected from two test pits under the fuel lines contained GRO up to 7,500 mg/kg, DRO up to 25,000 mg/kg, benzene up to 2.3 mg/kg, ethylbenzene up to 45.7 mg/kg, xylenes up to 240 mg/kg, and toluene up to 102 mg/kg .

The proposed site characterization consists of advancing nine initial test pits and collecting field and laboratory soil samples. If contamination is encountered additional test pits may be advanced to delineate the extent of any soil contamination encountered. The results of the investigation will be used to estimate costs for remediation and cleanup activities that will result in the property conditions being acceptable to the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC), the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) (the current landowner), and the regional corporation to whom the land will be conveyed.
