Update or Other Action |
ADEC received 1992 report on this date "Environmental Site Investigation, 6400 Rovenna Street, Anchorage, Alaska, September 1992" prepared by Shannon & Wilson for Nat'l Bank of Alaska. A work plan was not submitted to ADEC for the work, which was done in August 1992. The report describes the property occupied by Eastwind, Inc.'s operations as having the legal description of Tract A, Industrial Equity subdivision, comprising 14.7 acres, with two structures on the property including an office building and a heavy equipment shop. Various minor structures were also present including a drum storage shed, and a 5,000 gallon tanker truck was present at the site that was used to store waste oil. The majority of the property is described as unpaved with the exception of the asphalt pavement located around the office building, the equipment shop and the pump island. S&W excavated 13 test pits (TP1 through TP13); installed 5 borings that were completed as monitoring wells (B1MW through B5MW); sampled the groundwater from the 5 wells; and sampled the on-site drainage effluent and drinking water well. Also included in the report was a review of land ownership and use, with air photo analysis, for the previous 20 years. Regulated Underground Storage Tanks (USTs) at the site are described as a 2,000-gallon gasoline UST and a 12,000-gallon diesel UST. A strip drain (floor drain) within the slab and running the length of the equipment shop discharges into a drain pipe buried about 4 feet below the ground surface and extends into the yard area to the south of the shop. An expandable plug had been placed on the end of the pipe at an unknown time. No oil/water separator system is connected to the drain system. Groundwater is present from 2 to 8 feet below ground surface in the 5 monitoring wells with flow direction generally to the west. 23 soil samples and 9 water samples were collected and analyzed. (This database entry identical to entry under Haz. ID 24736 because both CS and regulated UST sources are included in the report). |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC review letter for "Field Summary Report, Non-Underground Storage Tank Contaminated Areas" and "Field Summary Report, Former Underground Storage Tank Areas" by VECO/Eastwind consultant, both dated December 1997. The report for the former UST areas documents the excavation and off-site transport for thermal treatment of approximately 1,310 tons of hydrocarbon impacted soil, with all confirmation sampling results showing no contamination remaining in soil above ADEC's most stringent cleanup levels for DRO, GRO and BTEX. The non-UST report documented investigation of the former drum storage shed, the area east of the storm sewer catch basins, the area east of the former shop building, the floor of the northern shop bay, beneath the strip floor drains in the southern shop bay, the area just southwest of the former shop building, the drainage ditch along the property's western boundary, and a soil stockpile near the former helipad. An addition ~100 tons of soil excavated from non-UST sources was transported off-site for thermal remediation, for a total of 1,413 tons for all sources. Confirmation sampling results for all sources indicated that level A cleanup levels were achieved for the contaminants of concern, GRO, DRO and BTEX. ADEC's review letter requested copies of field notes for regulated UST and contaminated sites work, and asked that the number and locations of remaining monitoring wells be identified. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC review letter for information provided by VECO on March 4, 1998 in response to ADEC review letter of March 2, 1998. ADEC's letter requests a work plan for additional investigation by VECO/Eastwind, noting that the site investigation was not done in accordance with the TELLUS plan dated October 21, 1997. In the plan, TELLUS proposed to investigate the contaminated areas identified in the September 1992 Shannon & Wilson report “Environment Site Investigation, 6400 Rovenna Street.” It appears that TELLUS did not investigate the areas identified in the Shannon & Wilson report for which additional investigation and/or corrective action was recommended. These areas are identified by Shannon & Wilson as (a) the drum storage area, (b) test pits 11N and 11S, (c) the area around the waste oil tanker truck, (d) the wash down area, (e) the area around the drum storage shed, (f) boring B5MW, west of the former UST, (g) test pit TP5, east of the storm sewer catch basin, (h) boring B1MW, southwest of the heavy equipment shop, and (i) test pit TP13, at the west end of the buried culvert. In addition, ADEC noted that surface and groundwater impacts identified in Shannon & Wilson’s report have not been addressed, and the Department has not received documentation showing that all of the on-site wells were properly abandoned. Shannon & Wilson identified one hand-dug water well and installed five groundwater monitoring wells in 1992. Surface water and monitoring wells were sampled only at the time of installation and were found to be impacted by petroleum hydrocarbons.
The Department requests that you provide a work plan for investigation of the areas of soil contamination identified in the 1992 Shannon & Wilson report, and for investigation of the areas of potential surface and ground water contamination at the site. |

Update or Other Action |
Two reports by DOWL Engineers for Cash Barner Architects received: the "Phase 1 Environmental Site Assessment, Alaska Seafood Center, Lot 2B, Block 2 and Tract C1 Denali Industrial Subdivision, Tracts B and C, Industrial Equity Subdivision...August 1997" that includes loose inserts defining property limits, and the "Phase II Environmental Site Study, Tract B and C, Industrial Equity Subdivision...October 1997." Note that the Eastwind, Inc. business and operations took place on Eastwind's 14.7-acre Tract A of Industrial Equity Subdivision. The four properties evaluated for the subject Phase I study included areas that were largely undeveloped. The Phase I report notes that fill material from the Eastwind site was disposed of on Tract C. No evidence of contamination was observed on the properties, although trash and junked cars were documented. The Phase II report documented work done on Tracts B adn C, both east of the Eastwind property (Tract A), all within the Industrial Equity s/d). The Phase II work was done sept. 15-18, 1997 and included installing a monitoring well and drilling four shallow (3-5 feet below ground surface) borings. Samples from the borings were collected at the fill/natural ground surface interface, with the highest concentration 112 mg/kg DRO; other compounds and samples did not exceed the most stringent cleanup levels for DRO, RRO, GRO, BTEX and HVO and metals by the EPA method 7000 series. MW-01 was placed about 30 feet west of center of the boundary between Tract B and Tract A, and was completed at 15 ft. bgs and screened from 10-15 feet; the groundwater was present at about 5 ft bgs and contained 0.172 mg/L DRO. DOWL recommended that a test pit be dug at the SA-3 boring location to depths greater than four feet bgs where the sample was collected, and recommended that two additional monitoring wells be installed to further investigate the low-level groundwater containation at MW-01 with soil samples collected at the soil/groundwater interface. |

Site Visit |
In response to a complaint, staff visited a Municipality of Anchorage ball field site that received petroleum impacted soil from the VECO Eastwind site during excavation for the cold storage building under construction at approximately 10:30 a.m. ADEC staff then visited the VECO Eastwind site where the Alaska Seafood International (ASI) facility is under construction. Frances Theys of Alaskan Refrigeration Services (ARS) was the representative from a Wisconsin-based cold storage company that is building a cold storage facility. Later Richard Holden of ASI explained that the cold storage facility will be owned by ARS and leased back to ASI. It appeared that contaminated soils had been excavated from within an 40 by 60 foot area that had been backfilled by the time ADEC visited the site. Upon returning to the ADEC office staff called Mike Pokel of Alaska Refrigeration Services Alliance Center in Wisconsin. Later ASI took responsibility for the soil, which was contaminated by the previous owner's activities either from regulated tank or unregulated contaminant sources. |

Site Visit |
Staff met with owner representative (Changepoint, dba Anchorage Community Development) and consultant Shannon & Wilson at the VECO Eastwind site to discuss monitoring well status and the next steps for obtaining site closure. Key monitoring wells could not be located during the site visit; the consultant will return later to attempt to locate the wells. Contamination at the site was associated with VECO’s operation of the site as a heavy equipment storage, maintenance and staging facility from the early 1980s through the mid-1990s. Contaminant sources included regulated and unregulated diesel, gasoline and waste oil tanks and surface spills. (Identical database entry made for Alaska Refrigerated Services Cold Storage Building site (File no. 2100.38.537 and Eastwind/VECO Yard (former) (File no. 2100.26.221).
