Problems/Comments

Three above ground storage tanks, formerly used to fuel boilers at the adjacent fish processor, are located on the bluff above the processor. The tanks straddle the property line between the fish processor and property owned by the Kenai Russian Orthodox Church. The church wants the tanks removed and any contamination removed. Some minor contamination due to leaks and overfilling appears to be present under the tanks and under the outlets. Working with Mr. Dan Foley, President of Pacific Star Seafoods, Inc., to resolve the problem. The tanks have been relocated to the Pacific Star Seafood property, where they are temporarily stored. The remaining gas, diesel, and oil will be used at the processor. Pacific Star is presently in the process of hiring a consultant to develop a remediation plan to cleanup the site. Last staff assigned was Seagren.
