Document Description
The Project entails the approval of a Remedial Action Workplan by the Department of Toxic Substances Control pursuant to Health and Safety Code, Chapter 6.8. The project serves to remediate soil and groundwater contamination caused by industrial activities at the location of the former Apogee Chemical, Inc. (Site). The 2.08-acre Site is located in an industrial area. The Site is bordered on the north by De Carlo Avenue, on the east by Richmond Parkway, on the south by a trucking yard, and on the west by an auto towing company. Apogee Chemical, which manufactured chemicals for the semiconductor industry, operated on and adjacent to the Site from the mid-1960's to the mid 1970's. In the late 1970's, the Site was taken over by Micro Metals, a sand-cast metal foundry, which operated until the early 2000's. On-site, there is one metal-framed building consisting of two smaller buildings joined together. After Micro Metals ceased operations, space in the on-site building was subsequently leased to various businesses, including a fiberglass tank manufacturer and a trucking company office.
