Preliminary Assessment Approved |
A report which has no author identification dated 7/13/84. Unknown when ADEC received or who funded the work. Alaska Pollution Control (APC) was allegedly storing and improperly disposing of toxic wastes. Confirmation has not been made. Site assessment by EPA contractor in 7/81 found only waste oil. Possible solvents used at garages taint the waste oil. Housekeeping problems identified. |

Update or Other Action |
Final report received from Tryck, Nyman and Hayes dated May 1986. No PCBs found in oil, levels of oil and grease were in excess of 23,000 mg/kg in soil. Contamination was restricted to surficial soils with levels of contamination rapidly decreasing with depth. (Later note by McLoone - Oil and Grease data most likely included beyond GRO + DRO + RRO). |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
December 1996 report by Shannon & Wilson for Mapco (prior to gas station development) entitled Sewer Line Excavation and Septic Tank Closure Assessments. Project was to upgrade sanitation system by removing an UST used for septic and install new sewer line. Excavation of tank, as well as sewer line excavation and stockpile created were sampled. Highest concentrations remaining onsite were 1,170 mg/kg DRO and 0.795 mg/kg PCE @ 7 ft bgs. Stockpile was not sampled for chlorinated compounds which were likely present. |

Update or Other Action |
A review of the 1989 water well search conducted for the adjacent Holiday 602/Williams 5002 indicates two wells north of the property were previously decommissioned. Other identified wells to the north are likely out of the range of impact from Holiday 602/APC. The nearest well to the west was identified at Tract A, Mary Hanes subdivision and is listed as 485 feet in depth, however additional information collected 1999 indicate this parcel is served by AWWU. |

Site Visit |
Site visit conducted on this date, accompanied by S&W representative. Confirming the status and location of the three wells installed by RZA Agra on behalf of Mapco is not feasible at this time given the site conditions which include a large number of pieces of heavy equipment and a gravel surface which appears to be frequently graded. Also a very large berm is now present along the property boundary shared by the railroad. |
