K&D Salvage Site

K&D Salvage Site

The Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC) is proposing to excavate approximately 7,720 cubic yards (CY) of contaminated surface, near surface and stockpiled soils at the K&D Salvage Site. Approximately 6,510 CY of the soil is contaminated with lead and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The Removal Action Workplan (RAW) proposes the consolidation of the soil within an onsite disposal cell, referred to as a Corrective Action Management Unit (CAMU). The CAMU will be capped to prevent human and animal contact with the consolidated soil and to prevent the migration of contaminants to groundwater at the Site. The remaining 710 CY of soil contains potentially leachable concentrations of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH). This soil will be transported to an off-site hazardous waste facility for disposal as a non-resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) hazardous waste. After the removal act is complete, administrative and engineering controls will be implemented to preclude the exposure of future workers and nearby residents/businesses to the contaminants that remain at the Site. Administrative controls will consist of a deed restriction, which will preclude construction on, or excavation at the Site prior approval from DTSC. The restriction will also preclude the residential use of the property and limit the use of the Site to commercial and/or industrial purposes. Engineering controls will consist of Operation and Maintenance (O&M) activities which will include the maintenance of the asphalt cap on the CAMU, and maintenance of the site security and signage. The RAW stipulates that DTSC will be responsible for the CAMU's O&M requirements on an annual basis in perpetuity.
