Document Description
Site L-B occupies approximately 70 acres and is located in the northwest portion of the USS-POSCO property. Extensive soil and groundwater testing indicates that soils in the unit contain levels of arsenic above those deemed safe for residential occupation but within levels deemed safe for industrial and construction activities. No impact to groundwater has been founded to exist. A site specific health risk assessment was completed and approved by DTSC to determine acceptable levels of contaminants which could be left on site and not significantly impact the health of industrial and construction workers. The level of arsenic found to be acceptable for industrial and construction activities at the site was 160 ppm. The remedy will require that a deed restriction be placed on the LB site restricting use to construction activities and industrial use only.
