Problems/Comments

During a limited investigation at Building 1316 in July 2012, petroleum-contaminated soil above DEC cleanup levels was confirmed outside the building footprint adjacent to the overhead door access. A 4/13/08 spill that occurred from a heating oil day tank in the northeast corner of the building during fuel transfer activities is believed to be the likely source of contamination.

Action Information

Action Date Action Description DEC Staff
3/5/2013 Site Added to Database A new site has been added to the database Mitzi Read
4/1/2013 Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other 2013- Phase 1 Source Evaluation Report (SER) for SS533 received January 2013. The purpose of this preliminary evaluation was to determine the appropriate path forward for the source area. The source of contamination is suspected to be from a spill released from the heating fuel day tank located in the northeast corner of the building resulting in fuel migrating under the overhead door seals and contaminating the soil outside and north of the overhead door access. Subsequent analytical data (July 2012) indicates this general area was found to have petroleum-impacted soil exceeding cleanup levels. There is insufficient data to determine either extent of contamination or potential risk to receptors. Therefore, a Phase II Source Evaluation Report (SER) should be completed as a site inspection, and additional environmental data will be collected. *Added to CSP: 8/8/2014* Anna Iverson
6/13/2014 Update or Other Action On April 23, 2014, the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation and the United States Air Force reached agreement on the State-Eielson Air Force Base Petroleum Site Restoration Agreement (Two-party Agreement). This agreement was established to perform any necessary assessment, monitoring, remediation and cleanup determinations for petroleum contaminated sites at Eielson Air Force Base. This site was identified as a petroleum contaminated site requiring a response action and its cleanup will continue under Alaska regulations, following the procedures established in the agreement.
