Document Description
UNOCAL HAS RELEASED PETROLEUM HYDROCARBONS FROM ITS SUB- SURFACE PIPLINES CAUSING CONTAMINATION OF SURROUNDING SOILS AND GROUND WATER. THE SAND COVER OVER A PORTION OF THIS CONTAMINATION HAS ERODED FROM FIVE FEET OF COVER TO TWO AND ONE-HALF FEET. THIS EROSION IS DUE TO THE WINTER STORMS OF 1995 AND SUBSEQUENT RIVER AND TIDAL ACTIONS. UNOCAL IS BEING DIRECTED TO REMOVE THE REST OF THE CON- TAMINATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE PETROLEUM HYDROCARBON PLUME LOCATED AT THE WESTERN END OF FRONT STREET. THIS ACTION IS BEING TAKEN TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC, WATER QUALITY, AND THE ENVIRONMENT FROM RELEASES OF PETROLEUM HYDROCARBONS TO SAN LUIS OBISPO CREEK AND THE PACIFIC OCEAN.
