Problems/Comments
Approximately 400 drums of aged asphalt. Drums are in disrepair, partially buried. 1996: Site visit determined these drums were located on property near Goat Hill, Back Loop Road in Juneau, Alaska. Drums are stacked three high in rows, and also stored in conex and trailers. No drums were buried, many were leaking and pools of asphalt evident in the area. Potential hazard to area wildlife. Facility name changed from "Montana Creek Road Drum Site" in 1996. No evidence that drums are stored at a site on Montana Creek Road. It is possible these drums were moved to their current location. Leaking drums and pooled of emulsified asphalt; probably CRS-1 typically used in paving projects.
