Problems/Comments
Site reconaissance revealed two areas of potential concern. A sample taken under the southwest shed corner indicated residual range organics (RRO) level of 7,730 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) (below cleanup levels), a marginal benzene level (.0234 mg/kg), and diesel range organics (DRO) at 859 mg/kg. Area B is stained soil partially in an alley, near several jade boulders. Sampling indicated elevated DRO (208 mg/kg) and RRO (5,740 mg/kg) levels but both are below cleanup levels. DRO-contaminated soil estimated at less than 5 cubic yards. The file is missing for this site.
