We make every effort to ensure the data presented here is accurate based on the best available information currently on file with DEC. It is therefore subject to change as new information becomes available. We recommend contacting the assigned project staff prior to making decisions based on this information.
Problems/Comments
On 10/14/11 it was reported that approximately 400-600 gallons of #1 arctic-grade diesel fuel had been released to the soil and ground water due to corrosion of a buried fuel line connected to a 500-gallon above-ground heating oil tank. DRO and BTEX were confirmed in soil above DEC cleanup levels.
Action Information
| Action Date | Action | Description | DEC Staff |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4/23/2012 | Site Visit | DEC went to site to discuss cleanup options with homeowners and legislative aide. Collected drinking water sample from on-site drinking water well and soil samples from edges of excavation. Discussed need to fill the excavation as soon as possible for safety reasons. Letter sent to owners describing regulatory requirements. | Janice Wiegers |
| 4/24/2012 | Site Added to Database | A new site has been added to the database | Mitzi Read |
| 5/3/2012 | Site Visit | DEC staff sampled drinking water at two of the neighbor properties. Contacted third neighbor, but planned sampling for later when more information could be obtained on the drinking water system and the best point for sampling. | Janice Wiegers |
| 5/3/2012 | Site Visit | DEC sampled drinking water from kitchen tap at 3591 Mandeville Loop and from water system prior to filter at 2909 Seavy Drive. | Janice Wiegers |
| 5/5/2012 | Site Visit | DEC sampled drinking water from outside spigot at 3585 Mandeville Loop. | Janice Wiegers |
| 6/1/2012 | Update or Other Action | Letter sent to owners of 2919 Seavey Drive with sample results from soil and drinking water samples. No contaminants were found in drinking water wells. No contaminants were detected in the soil sample from the northwest side of the excavation. A soil sample was also collected from southeast excavation wall beneath the wood boiler line where excavation was stopped. This sample contained BTEX, GRO, and DRO above DEC's cleanup levels. | Janice Wiegers |
| 6/1/2012 | Update or Other Action | Letters sent to neighbors with results of drinking water samples. No contaminants were found in the neighboring drinking water wells. | Janice Wiegers |
| 3/19/2013 | Spill Transferred from Prevention Preparedness and Response Program | Spill transferred by PERP staff John Ebel. Spill no. 11309928705; substance = #1 diesel; quantity = ~450 gallons; PERP file no. 100.02.327. | Mitzi Read |
| 4/12/2013 | Exposure Tracking Model Ranking | Initial ranking with ETM completed for source area id: 79283 name: Diesel #1 - Fuel Line to 500-Gallon Heating Oil AST | Mitzi Read |
| 12/2/2016 | Update or Other Action | DEC sent letter to landowner notifying them of DEC's Home Heating Oil Tank Pilot Program. | Janice Wiegers |
| 1/13/2017 | Update or Other Action | DEC called landowner to discuss HHOT Pilot Program. No answer or message machine. | Janice Wiegers |
| 1/13/2017 | Update or Other Action | Second letter sent to owners notify them of HHOT program and requesting response by January 25th. | Janice Wiegers |
| 2/7/2017 | Update or Other Action | DEC sent third letter to the homeowner outlining the HHOT pilot program and recommended response actions following a telephone conversation with the homeowner. | Bill O'Connell |
| 5/29/2019 | Update or Other Action | DEC letter sent to RP requesting response by June 6th, 2019 to set up a site visit to determine current site conditions and discuss a site closure pathway. | Shawn Tisdell |
| 7/1/2019 | Site Visit | DEC conducted a site visit to observe current conditions and meet responsible parties. Soil in the landfarm was screened at two locations at a depth of 5-7 inches (the estimated base of the contaminated soil). Using the headspace sampling method with a photoionization detector (PID), one sample screened at 9 ppm and the other at 11.5 ppm. A ppb-level PID was used for both soil screening and indoor air volatile organic compound (VOC)screening. VOCs in the house were 400 ppb. VOCs in the crawlspace as well as beneath the vapor barrier were around 200 ppb. Vapor intrusion was not observed. While onsite, DEC staff learned that a replacement drinking water well had been installed approximately 60 feet away from the release location. This location was about 40 feet further away from the release location than the previous well (previously tested for VOCs with not detects following the release). VOC sampling of water from the new well was recommended. | Shawn Tisdell |
| 2/26/2020 | Site Visit | DEC staff visited the site to evaluate vapor intrusion potential and meet with the RPs. A MultiRae fitted with a ppb level photoionization detector was used to screen for volatile organic compounds(VOCs). VOCs were not observed in the crawlspace or beneath the vapor barrier, where vapor intrusion was most likely to occur. | Shawn Tisdell |
| 11/4/2024 | Potentially Responsible Party/State Interest Letter | A notification letter was sent to newly identified landowners of the site property requesting the new owners contact the DEC. | Shawn Tisdell |
