Problems/Comments
This tank farm was the former location of the BIA school tank farm. The tank farm was located in a grassy area to the south of the school mechanical building. The exact location of this tank farm was not ascertained due to grass and brush covering the area. It did not appear as though this tank farm was contained within a dike. According to Phil Nicoli, one of the 8,000-gallon fuel tanks at this tank farm released its entire contents when a valve was inadvertently left open. Samples were not collected from this tank farm because the site of the tank farm could not be precisely identified.
