Problems/Comments
During excavation of a UIC well, benzene and toluene were found in soil at concentrations above ADEC method two cleanup levels. Groundwater had not been characterized as of site intake, however the site is located adjacent to Resurrection Bay and high chloride levels were recorded in site groundwater.
Action Information
| Action Date | Action | Description | DEC Staff |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11/1/2006 | Site Characterization Report Approved | Limited Phase II removed 2, 55-gallon drums of contaminated soil from the area around a floor drain, Class V UIC well. Soil samples contained benzene and toluene above Method 2 cleanup levels. A sample from the on-site drinking water well did not contain contaminants above MCLs. | Bill O'Connell |
| 4/5/2007 | Site Characterization Report Approved | Additional limited Phase II sampling from the open excavation from October 2006 and from the stockpiled soil. Benzene and toluene found above Method Two cleanup levels with max benzene at 0.385 mg/kg and toluene at 6.06 mg/kg. Benzene also above Method Two in stockpile samples. | Bill O'Connell |

| 6/13/2008 | Site Characterization Workplan Approved | Work Plan for Phase 2 Investigation, dated June 13 2008, submitted by Clarus, and recieved by the ADEC on this date. The work plan proposes to sample soil stockpiles on site and analyze groundwater for GRO and BTEX. | Grant Lidren |
| 11/10/2008 | Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other | Groundwater and Stockpile Sampling Report Henderlong Site, dated October 10, 2008, submitted by Clarus, and received/reviewed by ADEC on this date. Two stockpile soil samples and one duplicate were tested for BTEX and GRO. Benzene at 0.773 mg/kg was the only analyte above ADEC cleanup levels. Reportedly the stockpile has been removed and has/is going to be thermally treated as ASR. Two GW samples and one duplicate taken from temporary MWs were also tested for BTEX and GRO. The only analyte detected was benzene at 0.00179 mg/kg, which is well below ADEC cleanup levels. | Grant Lidren |
| 12/11/2008 | Document, Report, or Work plan Review - other | ADEC reviewed Soil Transport Confirmation Former Henderlong Site Seward, Alaska, dated December 5, 2008, submitted by Clarus, and received by ADEC on December 11, 2008. The onsite stockpile was removed and transported to ASR in Anchorage. On September 29, 2008 ASR received 24 cubic yards of benzene impacted soil for treatment. | Grant Lidren |
