Final Former Tok Fuel Terminal Data Gap Analysis Report, June 2014
Please make sure when planning future work at the site the presence of oiled sands at all tanks will need to be characterized and addressed as necessary. The correction in the report only notes oil sand at one tank in the text (217) and shows a picture of oil sand (225) at another. ADEC believes the oil sands will be present at most, if not all, former bulk fuel tanks.

A qualified environmental professional is required to supervise cleanup work.
