| 6/17/2008 | Update or Other Action | Site visit. Site is currently Elks Lodge. Only one building remains on site. Building that contained contaminated soil due to floor drain has been removed. Unsure which of the other two buildings remained, therefore, unsure if contaminated area is now paved or with grass. Contact at the Elks Lodge is Bobby Carr. E-mailed Wayne Walker from A & W Wholesale asking him to contact DEC to answer some of the ramaining questions regarding the contamination on the property prior to the property transfer. | Tamara Cardona-Marek |
| 6/24/2008 | Meeting or Teleconference Held | Met with Wayne Walker at the current A & W Wholesale location. Identified the building that is currently occupied by the Elks Lodge (Warehouse #3 on Agra report). Floor drain was located in Warehouse #1. Warehouse #1 and #2 were removed before the sale of the property (~2000). All removal activities were coordinated with Mark Rockwell due to the presence of hazardous waste like asbestos. Floor drain was filled with cement and left in place , all associated piping was removed. Property was purchased from Sea Land in the early 1960's and all buildings were in place. Warehouse #1 had access doors for trailers and some maintenance operations might have taken place there during Sea Land ownership. | Tamara Cardona-Marek |
