Problems/Comments
On September 19, 2013 during an Environmental Site Assessment conducted by Tesoro Refining and Marketing Company, benzene soil contamination was encountered south of the two underground storage tanks (one 26,000 and one 20,000-gallon tanks) at 0.326, 0.136 and 0.178 mg/kg at depths of 10 to 17.5 feet below ground surface. The facility has an on-site water well drilled to a depth of 184 feet. This water is filtered, treated and then plumbed only to the exterior spigot on the east side of the building, where it is used solely for non-potable water. The station is serviced by potable water trucked in from the City of Homer public water system, and stored in a 1,000-gallon above ground water storage tank. Water collected from the spigot on the east side of the building was sampled with detectable levels of GRO, DRO, BTEX, Naphthalene, and PCE, none at concentrations exceeding Alaska drinking water standards for public water systems.

| 5/28/2014 | Exposure Tracking Model Ranking | A new updated ranking with ETM has been completed for source area 79534 Underground Storage Tank. | Paul Horwath |
| 5/29/2014 | Cleanup Complete Determination Issued | Based on the environmental characterization work completed at this site, ADEC has determined that the residual contamination doesn’t pose an unacceptable risk to human health or the environment. Therefore, a Cleanup Complete determination is issued, subject to the following condition: The most current soil sample analytical data from this site reported DRO and benzene contamination exceeding the ADEC ‘Migration to Groundwater’ soil cleanup levels at depths of 10 to 27 feet below ground surface south/southwest of the two underground fuel storage tanks. Any proposal to excavate, transport, move, treat, and/or dispose of contaminated soil at this “site” requires prior ADEC approval. This is consistent with the requirements of 18 AAC 78.274(b) and 18 AAC 78.600(h). A “site” [as defined by 18 AAC 75.990 (115)] means an area that is contaminated, including areas contaminated by the migration of hazardous substances from a source area, regardless of property ownership. | Paul Horwath |
