Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
Review comments on report by DOWL Engineers "Dowling Road CPP Facility Groundwater Monitoring" dated July 6, 2000 and received by fax January 2002. Report documents 2nd groundwater sampling of monitoring well TMW-2 on May 18, 2000. RRO and DRO results were non-detect, but the report states that the samples were "field filtered" to screen out suspended organic particles. Project manager notes in review email that field filtration is discouraged unless it can be demonstrated to be applicable with reference to 18 AAC 75.345 (c)(2), and finds the .45 micron filter used to be unacceptable as it may remove colloidal solids that transport contamination. |

Received DOWL Phase I and Phase II reports: The "Phase II Environmental Site Assessment, Dowling Road Central Paving" dated December 9, 1999 and the "Phase I Environmental Site Assessment, Central Paving Products...December 1998". The Phase II documents placement of six borings and two temporary monitoring wells at the facility. Soil was sampled for DRO and RRO only with a maximum DRO level of 3,620 mg/kg. Groundwater was sampled for BTEX, GRO, DRO and RRO with well TMW-2 at the southwest corner of the property containing 1.18 mg/L RRO, exceeding hte 1.0 mg/L cleanup level. DOWL recommended resampling TMW-2 and to filter the sample. |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC letter issued for review of first "Site Closure Report for Central Paving Products Facility" dated January 22, 2014 and received Jan. 23, 2014. (This is the first of 5 submittals for reports having the same title, they are distinguished by date). ADEC's letter notes that soil was excavated to groundwater during a series of excavations from 2000 to 2002, but no monitoring wells were installed or groundwater samples collected within excavations, where groundwater contamination was observed both as free product and as a sheen. ADEC's letter requests submittal of a work plan that includes documentation that the former excavation has been accurately located and requires the installation of three borings completed as long-term groundwater monitoring wells, with soil and groundwater samples to be collected. |

ADEC review letter for second "Site Closure Report for Central Paving Products Facility" dated March 20, 2014 and prepared by TELLUS Ltd. The report documents installation and initial sampling of three borings completed as groundwater monitoring wells. DRO, GRO and ethylbenzene were detected in groundwater during sampling on March 6, 2014 but did not exceed cleanup standards. Depth to groundwater in well A was 9.8 ft.; in well B 9.95 ft.; and in well C 11.25 feet. One soil sample exceeded the cleanup level for DRO at 4,450 mg/kg from the 7-9 foot interval in boring/monitoring well A. ADEC's letter requests a plan by May 15, 2014 for additional characterization of soil contamination and continued groundwater monitoring for a total of four quarterly events including the initial sampling event. Groundwater flow direction was approximately 30 degrees west of south (S30W). |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
ADEC review letter issued for third "Site Closure Report for Central Paving Products Facility" dated May 2, 2013. The submittal is both a report and a plan; ADEC's review letter subject line reads "Conditional approval of groundwater monitoring and soil excavation plan included in 'Site Closure Report for Central Paving Products Facility' dated May 2, 2013". ADEC's letter notes that the report describes field work conducted on April 23, 2014 that included installing and sampling four soil borings equidistant around existing monitoring well A. As a next step, Granite proposed to sample the three monitoring wells at the site during the week of May 12,2014 and to remove and permanently decommission the wells if the groundwater motutoring results are below ADEC cleanup levels. ADEC will review the groundwater sampling results and if the results indicate that the wells can be decommissioned, Granite will excavate soil within the 7 - 9 foot depth interval at the former monitoring well A location. Soil within that interval is documented to be contaminated by diesel range organics (DRO). |

Update or Other Action |
ADEC received the fourth "Site Closure Report for Central Paving Products Facility" dated May 22, 2014 that included the results of the May 14, 2014 monitoring well sampling event. Well B exceeded the cleanup level for DRO with a result of 4.1 mg/L. TELLUS noted that the increase in the DRO contaminant concentration and the change in groundwater flow direction appear to be associated with the seasonal high groundwater conditions observed on the site in May 2014. During the May 14, 2014 monitoring event depth to groundwater in well A was 8.0 ft. below the ground surface (bgs); 8.05 ft. bgs in well B; and 6.35 ft. bgs is well C with groundwater flow direction approximately 10 degrees north of west (N10W). During the first monitoring event groundwater flow direction was approximately S30W, so that the flow direction changed by 70 degrees between the March 6, 2014 and May 14, 2014 sampling events and the depth to groundwater in monitoring well B decreased from 9.95 feet bgs to 8.05 feet bgs.

Site Visit |
Brief site visit during final work in progress under plan approved in ADEC's letter dated May 8, 2014. Work included removal of monitoring well MW-A and excavation of remaining contaminated soil at location of MW-A. Impacted soil stockpiled for mixing with RAP and re-use. The two remaining monitoring wells at the site, MW-B and MW-C, were also sampled on this date. |

Update or Other Action |
ADEC received the fifth and last report titled "Site Closure Report for Central Paving Procuts Facility...July 24, 2014". The report requests site closure. Groundwater sampling results for wells B and C were below cleanup levels for all analyses (DRO, GRO and BTEX). Depth to groundwater in well B was 7.2 feet below the ground surface (bgs) and 9.2 feet bgs in well C. Excavation confirmation samples from soil removed from the location of monitoring well A were non-detect for all analyses (DRO, GRO and BTEX). |

Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other |
Review letter issued for "Odom Site Evaluation Work Plan, April 2017" prepared by DOWL for ODEX Investments V, LLC. The plan includes procedures for managing potentially contaminated soil and groundwater within the approximately 21.66-acre Tract A of Odom Industrial Park Subdivision that has the address of 6300 Changepoint Drive. ADEC noted that the Central Paving-West Dowling site is now within Tract A of the Odom Industrial Park Subdivision following the 2016 re-platting into two properties of former Lot A-1, Block 3 of the Denali Industrial Park Subdivision. ADEC's letter notes that Tract B has no documented contamination and will not be subject to the institutional controls established for the site unless (1) contamination is identified during the planned site development of Tract A indicating that contamination may be contiguous across the adjoining property boundary, (2) contamination is documented within the Tract B property in the future. |

Offsite Soil or Groundwater Disposal Approved |
ADEC sends letter to Cooley Co. stating that ADEC has recently had a regs change in which a responsible person no longer needs ADEC approval to dispose of soils off-site, if the soils meet ADEC Method 2 clean up levels. ADEC has documentation that the stockpile currently located at Tract 1 Richport Subdivision does meet Method 2 cleanup levels. ADEC does not have any objections to the movement of the soil to an off-site location, and will not be providing regulatory oversight of the soil stockpile movement.
