Update or Other Action |
(Old R:Base Action Code = FI - Field Inspection (General)). Dubois observed 400-500 55 gallon drums (many in poor condition with some releases) and approximately 250 5-gallon containers of hazardous substance. Since the facility owner argued that majority of drums contained "product" and not waste. |

Update or Other Action |
DEC received hazardous waste manifest documenting the proper characterization and disposal of hazardous waste. Characterization included testing for heavy metals, PCBs, F-listed solvents (29 compounds), halogenated compounds in oil, TCLP extraction and benzene. The hazardous waste consisted of 6 barrels of waste water from the auto shop oil water separator, and 3 barrels of solid waste, including sump sludge containing PCB Aroclor 1260, and a mixture of aircraft oil, soil and absorbant pads. |

Received Hazardous Materials Inventory Listing for SRC/Everts properties. This inventory included over 500 drums with 274 of used aircraft engine oil, 116 drums of asphalt cutback, 29 drums of aircraft deicing fluid, and smaller quantities of lubricants, oils, alcohols, ethylene glycolmonethyl, aluminum etching fluid and Magnaflux. |

390 cubic yards (cy) of DRO, GRO, VOC and PAH contaminated soil transported from Everts Air Fuel block 3 Lot 11 (340 cy) and Block 3 Lot 1 (50 cy) to site. |

Site Ranked Using the AHRM |
Ranked by Shannon and Wilson. NOTES: Release and GW exposures are unknown. It should be noted that in a 7/29/94 letter, ADEC determined that the violations had been addressed, but they were waiting for the submittal of the hazardous materials inventory. Copies of confirmation analyses from the contaminated soil removal are needed to determine if adequate cleanup was conducted. At that time, it may be determined that there is low potential for GW contamination, or that GW sampling is warranted. |

2/9/2016 |
Update or Other Action |
A request was made by DEC to Everts Air Fuel, Inc. to characterize the remaining soil contamination in an on-site stockpile and the surrounding area potentially affected by contaminants from the stockpile. The contaminated soil stockpile (approximately 450 cubic yards) is from soil excavated between 1993 and 2008 during tank removals from Everts Air Fuel sites, Lot 3 Block 1 and Lot 3 Block 11, which were leased from the Fairbanks International Airport. |

6/25/2018 |
Update or Other Action |
The DEC was notified by a qualified environmental professional that the soil stockpile has been moved. Field screening and analytical sampling was conducted on the stockpile and will be submitted to the DEC for review. |

6/16/2021 |
Update or Other Action |
Email received from Everts consultant providing VOC screening and analytical results of 2010 through 2012 stockpile sampling. This response follows earlier phone and email correspondence with the Everts Air General Manager. |
Shawn Tisdell |
6/25/2021 |
Update or Other Action |
DEC PM reviewed figures, tables and lab reports of the former stockpiles at the site. Diesel range organics and benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene and xylene analytical samples were collected and analyzed. Heated headspace samples were also collected from both stockpiles. None of the analytical samples exceeded human health levels and most were beneath migration to groundwater cleanup levels. No cleanup level exceedances were observed in the north pile during the 2010 to 2012 sampling events. At least one sample was observed to exceed clean up levels in the south pile each year it was sampled. Benzene was observed at up to 0.0551 mg/kg and DRO up to 355 mg/kg during the first two years of sampling.
An email was sent to the consultant and RP requesting additional information about the former stockpiles. |

7/28/2021 |
Meeting or Teleconference Held |
DEC staff met with Everts General Manager to discuss a request for conducting site characterization of the area around the base of the former stockpiles that had been removed. This storage yard is referred to by Everts as the Arco lot. A follow-up letter requesting a work plan will be prepared. |
Shawn Tisdell |
8/13/2021 |
Workplan Requested |
ADEC letter sent to RP requesting characterization of the former soil stockpile area located at 5472 Mail Trail Road and comprised of contaminated soil from the FIA-Everts Air Fuel Block 3, Lot 1 and Lot 11 sites. A workplan was requested with a 30 day timeline from this date. |
Shawn Tisdell |
9/9/2021 |
Site Visit |
DEC staff met with Everts Air representatives and their consultant (ARES) to view the site and to discuss a sampling plan for the former stockpile locations. ARES indicated they will prepare and submit a sampling plan to the DEC that addresses our discussion. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC project manager reviewed a Corrective Action Work Plan proposing soil sampling to document final site conditions within the footprint of the former soil stockpiles that were located at the 5472 Mail Trail Road Evert storage yard property in Fairbanks. These stockpiles resulted from contaminated soil that had been excavated from the former FAI Block 3 Lot 1 and Lot 11 that had been leased by Everts. |

Site Characterization Workplan Approved |
Corrective Action workplan for soil sampling the footprint of the former stockpile locations approved. Sampling expected during October, 2021. |

Site Characterization Report Approved |
Everts Air Fuel, Inc. Post-Underliner Characterization Report received. This report summarizes characterization activities conducted by Alaska Resources and Environmental Services; LLC (ARES) related to historical stockpiles of contaminated soil that were previously stockpiled on liners in the area of investigation. DRO, Tetrachloroethene, Xylenes, Trichlorofluoromethane, and several PAH compounds were all detected at concentrations significantly below ADEC cleanup levels. ARES recommends "no further action". |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
The Post-Underliner Characterization Report for Everts Air Fuel, Inc. was reviewed and approved. The purpose of this sampling event was to determine if the site was impacted by the storage of former contaminated soil that had been stockpiled at the site. Sampling consisted of field screening of 87 heated headspace samples and analytical analysis of 10 VOC, DRO, and GRO, and 2 PAH samples. All analytical results were significantly below ADEC cleanup levels. No further action has been recommended. |

Meeting or Teleconference Held |
DEC project manager met with Everts Air Ground Operations manager to discuss four active contaminated sites including this one, which Everts is the responsible party. The general site cleanup process and site closure decision milestones were discussed. Contaminated soil stockpile management was discussed. A request was made by the DEC to determine current conditions of monitoring wells at each site and to develop a work plan for each site that leads towards site closure milestones. |
