Erburu Lease Remediation Project

Erburu Lease Remediation Project

The project is for a Coastal Development Permit to implement the actions described in the Supplemental Assessment / Remedial Action Work Plan dated October 30, 2020, including soil sampling to supplement existing site investigation data, removal of oil field infrastructure and confirmation soil sampling, and targeted soil removal in areas where soil concentrations exceed San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board Environmental Screening Levels (ESLs). The investigated areas include 28 former well pads, six historical aboveground storage tank footprints, and 12 formerly bermed areas. Of the 46 former operational areas investigated, only eight areas (Well Pads 3, 8, 11, 15, 16, 18, and 24; Bermed Area 5) had petroleum impacts in soil with concentrations above applicable ESLs and will require excavation/remediation. The excavations will range in depths from approximately 5 feet to 30 below existing grade. Soil samples will be collected at the excavation limits to confirm removal of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH)-containing soil. The excavations will be backfilled with clean earth material and the site surface will be restored to pre-existing conditions. The total limits of disturbance, including the staging area, is approximately 26 acres. Raw cut is approximately 16,000 cubic yards and raw fill is approximately 16,000 cubic yards. The project will result in approximately 4,500 cubic yards of impacted soil to be removed and replaced.
