1/28/2004 Update or Other Action Transferred DEC staff lead from John Carnahan Cynthia Pring-Ham
8/5/2005 Update or Other Action Requested more information from Air Force about this site. Air Force sent the Tank Removal report for 3 tanks, #29 (550 gal used JP4), #30 (550 gal waste oil), and #31 (550 gal hydraulic fluid). Field screening during the excavation of the tanks approximately 1 cubic yard of contaminated soil was removed because of elevated field screening data. However, when the soil was sampled, the concentrations were below ADEC cleanup standards. Confirmation sampling occurred at each tank, two samples were collected from the footprint of each tank and sampled for DRO, GRO, BTEX, and TRPH. All analytes were either non-detect or well below ADEC Level A cleanup standards. Emily Youcha
8/9/2005 Site Closure Approved ADEC has reviewed the historical information for the LUSTs (Tank #29, 30, and 31) at Building 1348, which is in the ADEC LUST Program Database (RECKEY 199231X006601). This site is also listed in our Contaminated Sites (CS) Database. This site consists of one 550-gallon waste oil tank (#30), one 550-gallon hydraulic fluid tank (#31), and one 550-gallon used JP-4 tank (#29) that were all removed on May 25, 1994. Apparently tanks #30 and #31 failed a tracer tightness test conducted in May 1991. Additionally, a leak was detected at the pipeline coming from Tank #29. During the removal of the tanks and associated piping, approximately 1 cubic yard of soil was removed that was thought to be contaminated. However, after sampling of the excavated soil, the concentrations were found to be below ADEC cleanup standards and the soil was spread at the intersection of Central Avenue and Flightline. Two confirmation samples were collected in the footprint at each of the three tanks and analyzed for diesel range organics, gasoline range organics, benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes, and total recoverable petroleum hydrocarbons. All analytes were either non-detect or well below the soil cleanup standards. Because contamination due to the underground storage tanks was below ADEC soil cleanup levels, no further action is required for the three tanks at Building 1348. Emily Youcha
