2.1.1 Narrative
Since the last POLREP, EPA completed the transportation and disposal of contaminated soil and commenced the site restoration activities.
2.1.2 Response Actions to Date
- On 27 April 2011, a total of 157 waste tires were shipped to Empire Tire in Plainfield, CT for recycling.
- On 20 May 2011, OSC Tsang met with Ralph Wickson and John Regan of NHDES, Kelly Dearborn-Luce, Hillsborough HCEO and John Stetsor, Hillsborough Town Administrator (herein referred as "the Group") on Site to discuss the remaining operations and review the grid locations (Grids #3, 6, 57 and 67) where contaminants levels slightly exceeded the NHDES Soil Remediation Standards (SRS). OSC Tsang recommended and the Group concurred that further excavation might not be necessary due to the the grid locations, its land use and requirements of additional resources including structural engineering evaluation, dewatering and water treatment operations and funding.
- From 1 June to 3 June 2011, OSC Allen Jarrell and ERRS personnel mobilized to the Site for the following:
1. Completed the transportation and disposal of approximately 79 tons of contaminated soil to South Hadley Landfill in South Hadley, MA.
2. Restored some of the areas disturbed by the removal operations by backfilling with topsoil and spreading straw-matting for erosion control.
3. Decontaminated and demobilized equipment upon completion of the above.
- On 8 June 2011, one (1) 55-gallon drum of hazardous blue colored solid was shipped to ENPRO Services of Vermont for disposal.
