Site Characterization Report Approved |
Approved final Report for Nonvianuk Ranger Cabin Soil and Groundwater Site Assessment 2014 describing soil sampling at the former above ground storage tank location. Soil sample results indicate approximately 3 cubic yards of petroleum contaminated soil remain on-site. The sample from 1.5 feet had a maximum concentration of 28,000 mg/kg DRO. The sample from the same location at a depth of 5 feet was non-detect for DRO. Groundwater was anticipated to be 2.5 feet below the ground surface, however once on site, it was determined that groundwater is an estimated 15 feet below the ground surface. No groundwater was encountered. |

Cleanup Plan Approved |
Although a current consensus on cleanup level goals has yet to be achieved, DEC approved the remediation actions within this soil remediation work plan. The National Park Service has not used Migration to Groundwater cleanup level goals at this site as groundwater is unlikely to be used, however DEC will require demonstration of groundwater protectiveness. |

DEC Approval – 2017 Nonvianuk Ranger Cabin Trip Report. Thirty pounds of PersulfOx® were added to an excavated area of soil identified to exceed 18 AAC 75.341, Table B2 Ingestion cleanup levels and 25 pounds were added to the remaining impacted area. NPS recommends evaluation of soils in 2018 for volatile organic compounds, diesel range organics, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. DEC recommends analytical soil samples be taken throughout impacted area in 2018, to include the newly ursine-disturbed area, to fully assess remaining contamination on site. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
DEC Comments - Draft Work Plan - Nonvianuk Ranger Cabin Soil Sampling. The work plan details the follow up sampling of soils in the in situ remediation area adjacent to the cabin. DEC is concerned the full extent of contamination above MTGW cleanup levels has still not been delineated and the groundwater pathway remains a data gap. |

DEC Approval – 2018 Nonvianuk Ranger Cabin Soil Sampling Report. This report details soil sampling within the remediation area at the ranger cabin to evaluate the effects of in situ treatment of contaminated soils. Five soil samples were taken at surface locations and four soil samples were taken at a depth of five feet. Samples were analyzed for DRO, VOCs, and PAHs. VOCs and PAHs were not detected in any samples and the detected concentrations of DRO in surface soil have decreased since the last analytical sampling event. DRO concentrations at five feet were below cleanup levels indicating a limited pathway for contamination to reach groundwater. The National Park Service has requested that DEC consider a closure with no further action required decision for the site. |
